Here it is - finals time. You're actually doing everything to not study, then you study all night and hope you'll pass. You're maybe studying all day long and in the late evening you want to go to bed, but your neighbours have just started a party, because they've already ended their finals. It doesn't matter. Everyone has huge plans for the most wanted break in the mid-term. My friend called it after-finals (but also some people called it tomorrow). It's a fictional time when all yours crazy ideas, which had been born in your head during this busy month, finally come true. Clean all your room, start to learn grammar for serious, learn how to juggle, get a part-time job, watch all seasons of Friends all over again, read each book from your enormous heap... Some people just want to rest and watching gras grow (it's a reat quote of my friend, who told me this are her plans after A-levels). Some people really DO amazing things, but this is a minority. For your after-finals, dear Rom-Bloggers, I wish you quality time, free of procrastination and laziness.

The 100 Day Song Challenge.
Everyday, lots of people share music on facebook. About a moth ago I saw some of my facebook friends publish song with a tag The 100 Day Song Challenge . I clicked on it and... I found it quite funny! Why not? I thought. Today is my 21st day of the challenge and sometimes is really hard to find a song which matches to the daily topic. But what's going on here? Let me explain it shortly.
Every day you have to share a song (or songs - it depends on you, but you have to share one song at least) which refers to the topic in About. The most difficult challenge for me was to find a song which I hate. Some tasks are hilarious, like:
-Day 23 - Song without lyrics. For me, as a fan of classical music, it's not a problem at all.
-Day 33 - Very short song. This is where the fun on youtube begins.

-Day 48 - Song from a commercial. And now I can laugh at people who could tell me, that Habanera isn't from the opera of Bizet, but from the ad of Ajax. Yeah, sure.
-Day 76 - Weird song. How can I know that after I published this song people wouldn't consider me a freak?
-Day 92 - Good song for breaking-up. Seriously, is there any?
My friend told me, that this Polish edition is extended, because the original Song Challenge has only 30 days. Well... More challenge, more fun!

In the end - my song of the day - Song with a name in the title. Enjoy. :)

Watchmen
Lately I've watched one of the classics among comic book-based movies about superheros - Watchmen. I was really surprised I hadn't watched it earlier! I don't want to spoil, so I'm not going to tell you a lot, but I want to mention just a few things to encourage you.
Watchmen is the movie based on comics on the same title. The story is masked policemen, who have been working against criminals during the World War II. Now, almost all of them are retired, it's time of the Cold War, where the whole world is in nuclear danger. If you're interested in history of XX century or you like the post-apo atmosphere, this movie is for you. Watchmen is one of the best film version of a comic book published by DC (as you know, last Superman wasn't very good). Generally, this movie presents people as they are, not black or white, but in many shades of grey. My favourite character is Rorchach, played by Jackie Earle Haley (you may know him from the new Nightmare on Elm Street, where he plays Freddie Krueger). Rorchach is a man with sad past, twisted soul and really dark character. His mask (and his nickname) refers to the Rorchach test - psychological test with inkbkots, created by Hermann Rorchach. Doctor Manhattan is also an interesting character - blue-skinned man, who's forgetting about being a human after his accident in an Intrinsic Field Subtractor. To sum up, there is plenty of different types of heros and heroines, who make this special atmosphere in the movie. I strongly advise you to watch the Watchmen!
