Story time (and a girl looking for a guy)

NOTE: This is a true story! =)

Once upon a time (like yesterday - Nov 23rd) there was a girl and she was a single girl walking home after long day at work. And it was Monday. She was really tired and sleepy and all she wanted to do was to come home, shower, put PJ's on and relax with a good book that she started to read night before. So she was walking and trying to figure out how to deal with a lot of things on her to-do list (and of course she was listening to a really good song that was on repeat on her phone) when out of nowhere a guy runs in front of her and stop her.

"Do you speak english?"- he asked her and she said yes because she does, after all she works for international company and most of her conversations are in english. He that explains to her why he stopped her and ask her her name. She told him, and asked him his name. "It's Tom. Like Tom & Jerry."- was his answer. They chatted for a little while and then he went his way and she went her way.

After couple of minutes she realized that in her trying not to fall asleep on her feet (he wasn't boring, she was just tired and sleepy) she forgot to ask him his number or to even ask if he was interested to meet her again while he was in her hometown.

She got home and immediately sent messages to her friends that she trusted the most. One in Zagreb, one in Germany and one in USA. Every girl was from different period of her life but every single one was by her side when she needed a friend. All three girls asked her about him and all she could tell them was this: "He's cute and hot. He got a smile that sent my brain to vacation. He got blue eyes. His name is Tom and he's from UK. And he likes old buildings or roofs in Zagreb."

One friend told her to try and google him, but she didn't have enough information to find him. Second friend told her to try and go the same way home in the same time as that day and maybe he would be there. Third friend told her that if it was meant to be she would find him or he would find her again.

Since the google option wasn't even an option due to lack of information. She tried the second option and walked the same way home at the same time as the day before and nothing happened. She decided to write this blog post and maybe someone out there who knows him would read this and tell him about it.

So if by any chance you know this Tom that was or still is in Zagreb this week and that has a blue eyes and that lives somewhere in the UK. Could you please let him know that I would like to get to know him better. And that he shocked me that Monday evening and left me speechless.


I'm ending this story with a song that I got link from one special person. It's a beautiful song...

I did it!

But don't just pray for Paris, pray for world without fear, for world where our children could live in peace and security. World where differences are normal and where that same differences enrich and complement each and every one of us. Pray for us as humanity to not let evil and fear stop us from living a full life. Pray for those who fight against these lunatics for our peace and security. Pray for belief in better tomorrow.

And now let me tell you about my week.

On Monday I got back to work after a week of being put on bed rest because of my right knee. Let me tell you a little about that. So almost three years ago I had a knee reconstruction on my left knee and my ortho surgeon told me: "I'm giving you a year to two years for your right knee.". Almost three years later my right knee is in mess. 

My patella is dancing around like she's on drugs, my ligaments are so f-ed up that is not even funny and stability on my right leg is lacking. So right now I'm waiting for MRI (appointment is next week) and than should know if there's gonna be a visit to hospital for surgery or not. Either way I'm prepared for everything.

After 18 years I made a switch from Nike to Adidas (some of my friends are still in shock). 

My new babies =)

My friend sent me two book from US. 

Currently reading the right one - Seriously... I'm Kidding by Ellen DeGeneres. 

And can't wait to start on American sniper by Chris Kyle. Love the movie with Bradly Cooper as Chris Kyle. Watched it a few times and of course DVD release was on my B-day in USA (and that's when I bought it).

Bought myself a new bag that I had my eyes on for a while and got it on 50% off. Here's the little picture of bag (it's not my pic but from the site).

This week was in Zagreb 38th International Book and Teaching appliance Fair. Went with my BF and bought a book for me (of course) from Croatian columnist. His column runs by name "His side of story", and book got name after one very popular column that actually was the first column that I read by him; name of the book is "To you" or in Croatian "Tebi". Usually I don't buy those kind of books but in these case I made an exception because this guy is male version of me and I felt that I need to give my support. 

My friend would tell: "Cut the bullshit missy. He is so your type." :)

So if by any chance Dean Pelić ever read this, Hi!

Uh, yes, I also bought for my sis M a book about anatomy and all that stuff because she's going to be a physiotherapist (she's going to graduate next year). 

And a little planner (or women planner as it's known in Croatia). 

For those who like me love sweet I have a little recommendation:

So this Friday I finally did something that was on my wish list for eleven years. First my parents wouldn't let me do it. Then when I turn 18 things got messed up and finally this year I did it and I'm so proud and happy. 

I got myself a tattoo. 

"Si vis amari, ama!" or "If you wish to be loved, love."

Since it's Sunday and I cooked lunch for fam, I'm going to relax for the rest of the day.

Till next time.

XOXO

Love,

Me
