Bolognia

           Bologna is my favorite city in Italy so far. It captured my heart the moment I stepped from the train. The streets are full of people and you see beautiful buildings any way you look. What is more the city (at least the center) is quite easy to navigate without having your nose in the map all the time. The city used to be surrounded by a way which remainings are still there to see together with captivating gates.

Friends with children

             I am single with no kids. Some of my friends are single and with no kids as well, but a few of them have children and are in happy relationships.

My friends who have kids become different since becoming parents. All they can talk about is their kids (or most they can talk about). Like there is nothing more in the world, no politics, no books, no movies, no nothing. It is like they don't have a mind of their own anymore. The child has taken over their souls.  

I know that it can happen. Kids are the most important thing. But I hope it will never happen to me (if I ever have children). Hope I will remain a separate identity.

Cupcakes

         I like to cook and bake from time to time. My most favorite things are those with chocolate. And cupcakes and easy and fast to make :)

Saturday Night Live

           Where do I begin? :)

I started watching Saturday Night Live back in 2002 when I was in US. I had no idea what it was back then. I just happened to stumble on it one day when I was jumping channels and looking for something interesting to watch.

In 2003 I went for a tour around NBC studio and one of the places we visited was the studio where they make SNL. Again I had no idea what it was back then.

I watched many episodes of SNL in the States. Just randomly whenever it was on TV.

In 2015 i remembered that show (no idea why) and I started to watch it on YouTube. Anything I could find. And I was amazed. So many great comedians, writers and performers were a part on SNL for so many years (they have just celebrated their 40th anniversary).

What an great show, all live, all funny and entertaining. What an inspiring tradition for more comedians to follow.

I cannot choose my favorite performers. There are so many. But I have to mention a few :)

                  1. Bill Hader and Kristen Wigg - my absolute favorites

           2. Will Ferrell - hilarious
                  3. Fred Armisen and Jason Sudeikis - the sweetest
           4. Chris Kattan and Cheri Oteri - my favorite characters when I started watching SNL
                  5. Jimmy Fallon and Andy Samberg - the hottest
           6. Will Forte - no words
