I just HATE free-riders. Those ones, that act as pests, parasiting on the system, those ones that are abusing the system and not producing anything, I just hate them. They are living without a purpose - awaiting a chance and rinding on it as if it was a wave in the ocean. Creating multitude of problems and consequently leaving them for others to solve.
The world would be so much nicer without those free-riders.

Exams
Its exam time. Wonderfull, but the thing about exams is, that not your knowledge is tested, but your ability to fulfill all the administrative procedures.
For example you are supposed to write a paper on a pass/fail basis, for which you get a credit. This is proven by a signature in a small book - your student record (called index) by the teacher. At the end of your study you hand in the index, with all the necessary signatures, but what do you do when you are missing your last signature and the teacher that is supposed to sign it is away from the country, and intends to come back after the deadline in which you have to hand in the index? Well, this is the art of university education, you have to master this nuances, knowledge comes later... if it ever comes. You are a university graduate - that means you are able to pass by various administrative hindrances, and you might also know some stuff about the major you studies... But that is not that important after all.

Adaptation
As i was cleaning up this messy place I live in here in Prague. I was thinking about the ultimate success. The thing I realized was that sucess is a delicate mesh of various ingrediences, one of which is ADAPTATION. It is not the pure strenght, it is ultimate ability to adapt that is imporant for sucess.

awaiting the vacation
these last days before vacation are just neverending, I usually put on myself more workload, so that I get the feeling I do deserve the rest. and maybe also to forget about other problems of my life... well fukit. i have 5 days to go and it still feels like eternity, three more ambassads, four more hotels and one more pub. and one still asks what the heck. why do I do all of this, wouldnt it be much easier to just buy a piece of land somewhere (or move somewhere up north, where land is basically for free and just live in a natural way, forget about all the internets, mp3s, OCRs and all the bull5hit? I dont know, really, i know that I am a slave of the information technologies, but on the other hand, when I am for too long on the vacation in Slovak country in my home village, I just start longing after all that fuzz of technology and buzz of the city...
