sunset colors
Walking in the streets of Yerevan under this bright colorful sky at an evening hour was just great! The evening was warm and calm, not much traffic in the streets and couples were out in the streets living the same miracle. It brought lots of joy and peace at the same time. The beauty was breathtaking and people were united by this feeling.. And all i could think of was how wonderful it will be to sit with Michael by the lake and watch the sunset together... :)

red and black
It's well known that red and black are our favorite colors. People roll the eyes or think we are crazy to have everything in red and black - clothes, accessories, themes, suitcases, interior design... However, it is what we are and our love is red and black, too. Red is the color of love, passion, desire and fire. It's burning bright and just like fire when there's much red it hurts the eyes. It's a color of strength and when there's too much it's out of control. However, add some black color and the red will be shaded and will look even nicer. Black is the color of intellect and mastery. It reveals the deep connection, unity of spirits.
Red and black love? It's when there is passion and connection, when you listen to both your heart and mind because they are in peace with each other. There's the madness of passion.. yet it's under control to some existence.
And here are our new skype / msn icons :))

what the hell?
Levon Ter-Petrossyan. Everybody knows him well. The first president of Armenia.
When he came to power Armenia was prosperous and one of the strongest republics of soviet union. By the end of his 2 terms (second elections were forged but many don't remember about it) Armenia was in DEEP depression: no job, no electricity, no bread, no food, no water... nothing. Blockade, war for Nagorno Karabakh.
Some will say: it's not Levon's fault. it was war.
And who started the war??? it was LEVON, who convinced everybody to free Nagorno Karabakh, started a war.
Armenians won the war, current government came to power and during this 10 years Armenia has done pretty well in general. Yes many things were terrible. But we have advanced after the depression.
Also some people have forgotten who closed factories "which were bad for the ecology". Levon and his team did.
Now people are so mad at the current government that they follow LEVON again..
how can people forget??? when it's a teen person, I understand, they want everything be fair, they see how it is now and they think if somebody else comes to govern it will be all democracy like in Europe. They are romantic and believe speakers. What about older people??
After elections for 9 days there were aggressive meetings in the city center and the government didn't really do much to stop it. What did the supporters of Levon do? they killed 7 policemen, burnt cars, pulled the car of red cross over, rioted, robbed stores (big stores, super-markets), destroyed pavements (!!!), threw rocks at police, buses, mini-buses. There are 131 wounded all in all (including the policemen), 8 dead (7 policemen).
Levon? where is he? at home. he is not under home-arrest like he was telling. He was told that if he leaves and goes to meetings, the guards take no responsibility of his security. that's all! they are guarding HIM now.
The government? now there are soldiers in the city, and tanks. Small tanks. 10 passed by my house at night yesterday and now have left already. Maybe the government would use tanks against people? No. it was just something psychological and security. People would not throw themselves against tanks, and tanks would be a good way to block things or defend things. Soldiers were some 20-year-old guys mainly. What would it be for them to fire at people?
What do the supporters say now after everything? government is bad, poor people. poor people??? the ones who were throwing stones and killing and robbing? yes poor armenian people. they have degraded so much that are worse than those who they consider barbarians. the PEOPLE started this aggression. People were motivated by several idiots who had already SHOWN what they are.
Tragedy of armenian people is not that they are living with their past, it is that they don't learn ANYTHING of the mistakes made.

лепестками белых роз...
| Я люблю тебя до слез | I love you to tears |
| Подними глаза в рождественское небо, | Look up into the christmas sky |
| Загадай все то, о чем мечтаешь ты, | Make a wish of whatever you dream of |
| В жизни до тебя я так счастлив не был. | I have never been so happy before you appeared in my life |
| Для тебя одной, их так любишь ты, | Only for you, you love them so much, |
| Эти белые цветы. | These white flowers. |
| Я люблю тебя до слез, | I love you so much that tears appear in my eyes |
| Каждый вздох как в первый раз, | Every breathe-in feels like the first one |
| Вместо лжи красивых фраз | Instead of the lies of beautiful phrases |
| Это облако из роз. | This cloud of roses, |
| Лепестками белых роз | With the petals of white roses |
| Наше ложе застелю, | I will cover our lodge |
| Я люблю тебя до слез, | I love you to tears, |
| Без ума люблю. | I'm madly in love with you. |
| Белизной твоей манящей белой кожи, | With the whiteness of your appealing white skin |
| Красотой твоих божественных волос | With the beauty of your heavenly hair |
| Восхищаюсь я, ты мне всего дороже, | I am delighted, you are the dearest thing to me, |
| Все у нас с тобой только началось, | Everything has just started for me and you, |
| Я люблю тебя до слез. | I love you to tears. |
| Вместо лжи красивых фраз | Instead of the lies of beautiful phrases |
| Это облако из роз. | This cloud of roses, |
| Лепестками белых роз | With the petals of white roses |
| Наше ложе застелю, | I will cover our lodge |
| Я люблю тебя до слез, | I love you to tears, |
| Без ума люблю. | I'm madly in love with you. |

week of love. part 3 - engagement
Yes, now we are engaged.
This has been probably the most amazing week in my whole life most of all because it's the biggest, most serious step i have ever taken. But the decision was made easily and well everything was decided much earlier as this is the perfect match and i am engaged with the best man in the world (i wouldn't agree for less though :D).
I can make a long post.. but I will just post several photos instead.
Us and his parents - David and Patricia. They came here on this special occasion and to meet my family. They are very nice and I liked them very much. You should have seen how Michael's dad was dancing Armenian dances! (well not only Armenian though).
This last photo taken by Mary I like very very much. It reveals much character.. The calm and loving look Michael and my wide and loving smile :D

a bit about everything
First 2008 post! I'd do this earlier had I not been so busy..
1. happy new year :D for 6 days I've been paying visits and drinking with everybody :D it was great :))
2. on Jan 12 it was Mary's birthday!
Have a look at her.
As it can be easily noticed from the photo she is not very sober. She drank one (1!!!) glass of tequila. I guess it was her first experience. Well me and Anya will have to pay more attention to her alcohol education! :D:D
3. we've taken 4 exams.. we were getting together at Mary-Alex's office to study the materials that others studied in 4+ months.. The worst exams ever. Especially the last one (taken yesterday). it was numeric methods. The study group was about 9 people - all depressed. We xeroxed lectures from one girl and everything.. but we lacked time and couldn't read it all. So we were trying to figure things out from examples solved. But every time there was smth unclear or smth incomplete or worse - incorrect. When yesterday we arrived at the exam I asked a guy from our group and he explained me some things right on spot 5 mins before the exam :D:D. However we consider that we didn't fail. I could do a long post about this but it's over and there's no need to worry about it.. at least before the results are known. Things done can't be undone anyway.
And here are some photos I took on one of the preparation days. When we started getting together but not everybody arrived Alex and Vova were playing... And we girls had some fun :D
4. No need to say that I'm so very impatient.. in 9 days Michael will be here (with his parents) and I'm kind of getting ready with it all :D but I want to make a separate post about this so I won't go into details :) (well probably after he's back to the states, so that I can post photos at once :D)
5. Anya has finally started a blog too! http://anaida-gasparyan.blogspot.com/ the only thing left for her is making the first post at least :D:D
