Anyhow, the answer to y'all's (get it? ) question is, I'm 190cm which the metric converter says would be just short of 6'3. AND THAT'S A BAD PHOTO...but ok, I can live with it... Anyhoo, I just got back home about an hour ago and am still wrapping my head around the whole thing, and I understand that the magnitude of what happened will be lost on anyone who hasn't participated (not only did I get to meet people from MB on my first trip to the States, which given my job description, I NEVER hoped for, but also two of my favorite people who just happened to live about 20 minutes from where I was at the time, and not only that, but they actually are as awesome in real life as I thought they were online) but it really was one of those events that I'll remember for the rest of my life. My cup runneth over, you guys, really...(: Oh and I liked the Cheesecake factory, I ate some cajun chickeny stuff (sorry Freebase) and it was awesome. I don't know why people criticize American cuisine, I'd probably weigh 200 pounds if I lived there. General impression about America: awesome. I loved the look, the feel, the people, the service, the malls, stores, taxis, I love how a random woman from California bummed me for a cigarette and we struck up a conversation and I got to tell her where Croatia is, I love the expertise of the business people and their practical, no-bullshit approach, loved the skyscrapers and general architecture which is so different from anything I've seen in Europe etc. I could go on. I love it all. I'm sure in some past life I lived there and if not, I should have. So yeah, America, fuck yeah. (:

To adidasss, SATCH and NSW.
You bastards!!! Seriously, I'm so glad you all had a great time meeting up. Especially for Marijan who I know under such circumstances would have probably been feeling rather nervous about the whole thing. Unless his new job has given him some new found self confidence in social situations? I can't think of two better people for him to have met. Good to see. |
