До встречи на сеансе, а кто не сможет прийти, ну что ж я все потом расскажу! =)
Новый фильм Валерия Тодоровского «Стиляги» появился 25 декабря.
Признаться, я и не знала до этого о существование такой субкультуры в послевоенное время в СССР. Большой минус мне! Фильм оченьяркий, красочный и зажигательный. Главная его идея – это показать, что человек может и должен быть другим. Это совсем не означает, что он должен быть лучше или хуже кого-то, просто другим.
Мы живем в 21 веке. У нас можно одеваться как хочешь, слушать какую угодно музыку, читать какие угодно книги, отдыхать так как нам хочется. «Стиляги» как раз об этом. Мы можем и должны выбирать стиль жизни. А еще «серая масса» – это плохо. Это понятие очень хорошо высмеяно в фильме.
Только, лично мне не очень было приятно лицезреть аж два момента картинок из камасутры. Просто рядом сидел мой парень (мы не очень давно встречаемся), и было как-то неудобно!
А так фильм супер. Давно я такого не видела!
«Metro» is going to celebrate it’s 7th birthday! The main present to the guests is an erotic theatre of art-ballet Session. Today team is ready to present it’s new provocative dances. One of the most eccentric dance is called “Ekaterina” some kind of a sexual fantasies which according to the legends the Great Empress was doing in a real life. Also the famous Russian singer Anton Zacepin is invited to a party. I think that you will have there a great time, that’s why I strongly recommend you to go there. The show will be on the 7th of December. Have a nice time)
It was Friday. Friday is a good day, and I decided to spend it somehow interesting. I guess Ballet is a good example of having great time. To be honest I was in the theater about 5 years ago before and I wanted to the Ballet very much.
I go with my mom and friends. Dancing was not so bad, but it was too hard to seat about half an hour and don’t move, don’t talk. Ballet was in two acts, but we were little bit late and did not buy libretto (short book with description of acts.) It is so hard to understand Ballet Without libretto.
Oh, by the way, Ballet’s name was “Yunona and Avos’” – the story about love. Technically it was not very hard; because of this dancers were young, but I like very much how they tried to do their best.
Culture voyage was the cool idea and I recommend you to visit our Ballet theater.
This performance is about lige of a famous kazakh composer Shasmi Kaldayakova, a lot of generations grew up on his songs, but their popularity is not really big. Only while listening his songs it is easy to guess, that his life was very hard, but anyway some facts about his life are still a mystery. This performance is exactly about his mystery facts of life.

Life in big cities reminds the infinite race, you try to have time for all businesses, but it is impossible. Sometimes we put the daily businesses above others, which we think are not as important as profession and studying. But at once you will recognize that you missed something, something really important. Without it your life will not be full in any case. Life is moving and changing. But sometimes we don’t live, we just exist! Everything become so habitual, time flies away and you live as you lived before. Day-to-day, week-to-week, months-to moths… years-to-years. Did you play the SIMS2? Nowadays it is the one of most popular computer games. You can direct people in this game, make them to do some stupid things without their desire. You can make them to be the richest or poorest, happiest or loser, beautiful or ugly. You can even kill them if they make you boring and you want something new. I want to explain the feelings of people wasting about 4-5 or even more hours to this game everyday! Why this game became so popular? I think most of people like it, because they can feel themselves in role of God, by manipulating and judging the people in virtual world. Sounds tempting, doesn’t it?) But I can’t understand, why most of people just play this game, direct it, but don’t even attempt to direct with their own lives. Life is a gift of God, it is one. Some people belief in reincarnation, I respect their opinions but if they are false? If after death is nothing – no paradise, no hell, just emptiness? Sometimes it is necessary to stop and reflect, to stay out from the daily vanity and ask yourself: Did I miss something important? Look around, could you see the sky, the grass, snow, tries? They are so beautiful!! Some people are blind from the birth, but they feel the things, which we see but don’t admire. We can lose the day by doing nothing .1 day, 2 days, week…. Whole life???? Yes. Missed opportunities, unrealized dreams, unsaid words…. What can be worse of them? Blindness. I mean spiritual blindness, the obstinacy and unwilling to learn the life’s lessons. Each day bring us the lesson. You can disagree with me, I just wanted to write my thoughts, my inspirations and share them with you. But each day likes a little life. According to independent student magazine Kimep Pie:
In ALMATY
Daily industrial output id worth 460 mln. tenge

As Ghetto Dogs sing : “Almaty – city of finance, dreams and cheap showing off”. Maybe this city had broken many destinies, but sometimes people became the puppets at own will…
The collection spring-summer 2009
17 designers from Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Georgia, Italy and France had a part in fashion week.
Just 130 billboards are allowed to be demonstrated on the streets of Almaty.
The restriction of advertisement will be made due to increasing the safety of Almaty’s drivers because most of advertising posts distract citizens and close traffic lights and signs. At present time there are 1200 billboards fixed in Almaty, but administration of traffic police promised to take immediate measures and decrease this number near to Happy New Year.
526 deceived people, invested money in construction of 7 buildings.
According to Almaty’s Akimat, it is the number of registered people, who paid, but still didn’t get the flats.
1386 people complained to medicine
They attend the Public fund, which carried out the interrogation. The most widely spread complains about low quality of domestic pills, negligence and corruption of medical personnel.

‘Money likes water! I don’t know how but I have spent all my money. I bought so many things, but they are unnecessary for me. I’m sorry for my wasted money! ’ =((
It is the most widely spread phrase, which U can hear from the majority of people living in big cities, especially from women.
Even I spend more than I plan. I like go to shopping, I try to get rid of the depression by buying the food, clothes and even funny toys=) If I had a possibility, I would buy the whole Mega center)))) But I’m a common student, and I recognized that it is necessary to spend money practically and efficiently.
Some psychologists identify the ‘unhealthy’ desire to buy unnecessary goods and wasting all money through the shopping as disease.
Oniosmania – the name of this sickness, people look like crazy and have the dependence on shopping, they don’t think about the price, consequences and even don’t recognize do they really need bought goods.
The Almaty’s center of sociological investigations “X plus” found out that young people prefer to spend all money on themselves. They buy modern clothes, expensive perfume and jewellery in order to look stylish.
People aged from 40 to 60 prefer to accumulate the money. They think that it is better to save money today, however to buy something really expensive and prestigious in future. According to psychologists, it is the one reason of two different preferences – uncertainty about 2mrw.
The position of most of fellows and teenagers is ‘I want everything and right now!!!’ that’s why they spend money immediately, of course, if they have it))
Pensioners, adults want to have ‘insurance’, the amount of money “for black day”, what is also essential nowadays.
I looked through many recommendations how 2 avoid unnecessary shopping. And these are most effective:
1 Try to avoid big trolleys in the supermarkets.
Shopping – pleasant business. When U r walking in the shop, supermarkets and looking at bright, beautifully designed goods – it is very difficult 2 contain you and stay away from the buying of unneeded things. Try 2 use baskets, they are less spacious. If you refuse of basket, the probability that U buy unnecessary goods is the lowest.
2. Do it quickly!
If you know exactly what you need, try not to be distracted by other products. The most consumed and inexpensive gods like bread, milk are situated in the end of the supermarkets. They are putted there especially, for the time you searching them you will have to go through the labyrinths with expensive goods, which will seduce you with attractive packing. 
That’s why it is better to get the necessary product and go to the cash desk at once.
3 Never go to the shop by being hungry!
Smell – the best and the most serious method of encouraging the buyers. Fresh small rolls, free degustation, everything is planned to make you to buy these goods!
4 Use just cash money!
Some big supermarkets suggest to the clients the especial cards, which are active on their shopping territory. It is very comfortable to use them, but you can spend more than you predict. Use cash money, you will know your financial possibilities and you will spend as you planned.
5 Take into account the quality of selling goods 
“Discount”, “50% from the price” these are magical words for buyers, especially for victims of Oniosmania and of course powerful motives for buying.
If you really liked the selling good with discount, look at it carefully, because the quality may be low.
6 Never go to the shop with children!
Children watch and remember the advertisement perfectly. They will ask you to buy the things, which they watched on the TV set. You can refuse to buy it, and then the child will irritate you with ‘a little concert of hysterias and tear’. How can I refuse to my baby??? It is a weak bottom, on which sellers love to push.
7 Well looking
If you decide to buy new clothes and go to the shop, get dressed beautifully and fitting manner. Sellers will be respectable, because they will consider you to be potential buyer. And you will be confident and finally will not buy the new clothes just to increase your self-appraisal.
8 Be attentive
Also I notice that small shelves with bright candies, gums, cigarettes are located near to the cash desk. While the casher serves you by checking the prices and printing the check, you can buy them.
I take the view that we should go to the shopping carefully in order to avoid the disappointment and spend the money efficiently. Don’t go to the shop, like it is you last day in your life and last chance to enjoy with the goods, which are not needed at present time.
