A cosmopolitan's short narratives.

“Welcome to the kingdom of my imagination. Welcome to the world of the unpredictable reality. I live in Florida (sometimes in Sweden). My country of birth doesn’t exist anymore (SSSR). I am writing in English and Russian about my day-to-day life and the experience of living in different countries, observation of people’s life, traveling and fashion. Welcome,” jelena717@gmail.com.

“An idle brain is the devil’s workshop”

Monday, I continue my job haunting. Today I had two job interviews. One went well; the second, I can’t tell, the guy was too stressed. I still can’t get use to a traditional question,” Do you have a criminal record?” during the interviews. Sometimes I chuckle, but you shouldn’t joke about it here. Apparently, there are plenty of people with criminal backgrounds who are looking for jobs too.


I do feel better; I even jogged yesterday, although just 30 min, but it is better than nothing. Tonight I am going to have a Yoga class. It will be challenging, since I haven’t been attending it for 2 months.

A good friend of mine became sick, she has an ulcer. I am worried about her; she is one of those people who has a big heart and a lot of wisdom. The next time when I am in church, I shall pray for her as well.

Ok, here is my today’s shortcoming: I woke at 5 AM to visit one place, you know, and then I couldn’t sleep; my thoughts about a job and other things preoccupied my mind. I turned on the TV, just (as I thought) for a couple of minutes and ended up watching a horrible program based on true story about a house haunted by evil, poltergeist, and negative entity phenomenon. The story was horrible, with all scenes with a devil, black entities and so on. After that I definitely couldn’t sleep. This supports the famous American proverb, “An idle brain is the devil’s workshop.”
