Andrew Lane’s ‘Young Sherlock Holmes’ event in Tbilisi

So, as I posted several days ago, English writer Andrew Lane was going to visit Georgia to promote his book series “Young Sherlock Holmes” this week.

Our local publisher “ბაკურ სულაკაურის გამომცემლობა” translated  first part of series: ‘Death Cloud‘ in Georgian so it was a book presentation as well. When I fist heard about the event, I was very excited, cos I loved Torchwood Novel – Slow Decay that Andy wrote and I couldn’t believe that he was actually going to visit Tbilisi, that kind of stuff doesn’t really happen here often

So I went today at the event and after he gave a speech, readers had a chance to ask questions and me and Sally were the only ones who could actually understand English so I told him that we were Whovians and really glad that he visited, loved his TWD work as well as Sherlock series and was going to read ‘Red Leech’ and ‘Black ice’ and asked if he was going to write any more TWD novels or maybe do Radio Dramas. He was very happy to see that somebody actually cared, cos mostly audience had no clue what was going on and most of them were there for the painting contest

Later, Mr. Lane had to choose winners from best painting and best question, I thought that he would choose something related to Sherlock, I enjoyed the book very much, but had no good ideas to ask, so I choose Doctor Who subject instead. So Mr. Andy said that he was glad somebody had read his book in English, so he chose me ♥ I was so excited and embarrassed and stuff, you know, everybody staring at you and stuff, I greeted him and he also made a remark about my Union Jack t-shirt ^ They gave me my prize that I won, a pool and spa membership and he signed my book, we chatted some more about Doctor Who and how he had done some work for Torchwood magazine, I explained that I couldn’t subscribe to magazine from Georgia, also the fact that I’d have let him sign my ‘Slow Decay‘ copy, but I only had an audiobook, so that was a shame. But in overall it was sucha fun event, I think that he enjoyed our presence as much as we did, kind of cheered each other, had a wonderful time :] He promised to visit again if he could for next series translations, which is gonna be awesome!

Gosh, I’m so thrilled, I can’t believe I met the actual author and we spoke and stuff, so excited about tonight. I know you think it’s no big deal and don’t want to listen to my foolish rambling, but this doesn’t happen very often, so it made my day ^___^

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 2 Review

Harry Potter’s last movie premiered in Georgia at 14th of July, on the day of my final exam, which was a big relief, obviously.

Since then  I’ve seen it twice. I’m planning to go again around 25th to see it in English (we get Russian dubs and only one English screening if  we’re lucky)

I have to say I’m pretty much delighted with it, it made me cry, it made me laugh and I had this strange feeling when I first came out of the theatre, it’s like when you don’t really know what to feel, but you know something important is ending.

People react to Harry Potter pretty harshly here, not many understand how important part this saga can take in your life, especially if you started reading it since you were eleven and grew up with Harry, Ron and Hermione in this magical little world, like I did.

Pre-exam post.

So I was planning to take a quick nap in a quiet house which doesn’t happen very often since my sleeping schedule is fucked up, but then I thought I should write something before I’ve changed my mind.

So here’s what I have to say:

Finally, my exam revising year is over, thank Castiel for that!

Maybe I can try and be more social from now on, that’s a good thing, right? LOLJK I’m fine at home as long as I don’t have to study and do whatever I want and I don’t feel like going out at all, (it’s very, very hot) this year has made me more of an introvert person then ever.

So you might’ve guessed that I’m taking National Exams again, this year, like last year.

I didn’t do much good on my art exam last year and then I completely changed my mind about Academy of Art, realising, that after all, there are some other professions except being an Interior Designer that I can try and be good at, besides I had lots of friends in that Academy and everybody knowns it’s the only Academy of Art and it sucks. Big time.

so here I am again, this time I’m even more ready and I chose Ilia State University  (Iliauni as they call it) –Faculty of Arts & Science. I want to be an English Language Major.

I think I’ll do fine.

Tomorrow is my first day, Georgian Language exam.

I’m not worried, I’m never worried about things like these and that’s exactly what my family is always worried about. They think I’m too confident.  Read more…
