happy halloween-birthday ieva & uli! we made the pumpkins... the jack'o'lanterns... this was a collective marvel... uli cut the nose and the nice eyes and i made the smile:)



seyit and simon played the guitar and sang... pumpkin number two.

all in all the birthday was just fantastic! we went to sleep today at four or maybe five in the morning and the room was completely messed up. we also got the coupons to go to eat lobster at the prudential tower in boston, which has a marvellous view over the city... today, unfortunately, i have lost my voice totally... and after a week of neglecting that my foot is ok, i noticed how swollen it really is and tomorrow will visit the hospital for the first time. i hope that doesn't cost all my money... we'll see how fulbright insurance works...
