"i don't like" and "i like"

As you could understand for a student who has just started studies in a new school, in a new country, there is a lot of new impressions and things like "I don't like this" and "I like this".
I will start with "I don't like". At first, I don't like library in Haslev. I wanted to get couple books, for example, "Making movies" by Sidney Lumet and "On the road" by Kerouac (I read about these books in Hillman Curtis book) . But these books are not in there. OK, it is not so important, but there is one more thing. In this library there is a lot of computers, but I can use them only one hour per day. What can I do in one hour? Read e-mails, put some music on, and thats it! I need 3 hours, even 6 hours. So for whom is this library, if student can not study there?
What I also don't like is the prices. It is not that I would find them very high, but the way I see them in a store. For example: eggs - 15,95 DK; baked beens - 2,95 DK; the cheapest wine - 17,95 DK. But even if they want, they can not give me back my 0,05 DK. It is not possible. So I think they are playing with my mind. I found it cheating. It is not nice. I think I will send a letter to government. I'm serious. Have to start a revolution.

But in the folder "what I like" comes all the things that are important to me. I like my new school, my new friends. I like how I feel here. And I love my mondays.


P.S. - Spring is comming.

  1. Hi Maris

    Yes, it is a danish concept of playing with your mind. It's called psychological prices because you are tricked into believing that you give a little less than you give.. Especially we are quite fond of 99,95 kr. - because it's not 100 kr.

    Thought it was a universal thing, but I take it they don't do it in Latvia?

    Ps. I am not fond of Mondays, but I like your blog
