Tue Oct 9, 2007, 3:38 PM
  • Mood: Yearning
  • Listening to: ::THE GATHERING::These Good People::
  • Reading: Ryszard Kapuscinski : Podroze z Herodotem
  • Watching: Changing of the guard in Greece
  • Eating: sandwich with excellent Polish bread
  • Drinking: tea...as always
So... Yesterday morning I've came back from 17 day trip to UK. First I've been in Cambridge for 2 two weeks - I really like that place. Nice architecture and friendly atmosphere. I've made some photos but I really can't take a good picture of a building- I prefer human than stones and bricks.
Despite the crowd in the streets I think that Cambridge is a place to live.

Unfortunately because of the lack of time we couldn't go to Sutton Hoo but I'm pretty sure that we've seen the most interesting things in British Museum.

4 days before going back to Poland we went (me + my future husband) to London.I LOVE British Museum!! I've seen there the monuments of Mesopotamia and Assyria which I simply adore (my favorite ones form the history of ancient art). I thought that they have a larger Egypt exhibition. We were looking for some Akhenaten sculptures but we've found nothing :(
I've enjoyed the Science Museum- I didn't know that V2 rocket was SO big and that Sputnik was so small.

Unfortunately we had no time for National Gallery, Tower and London Eye. Well -in the future I'll have to go there one more time and see the rest of Museums.



OH! One more thing! ;>
Today I'll serve you lyrics from my favorite song from the latest Behemoth's album "The Apostasy".



:: BEHEMOTH :: INNER SANCTUM ::

Split my skin, fuck my wounds
Desecrate the Inner Sanctum in which I hide
Drag me through the mud, blind my whitening eyes
That I may see darkness in the tunnels ov light

Pain I cannot deny
As I rot in this empty shell
Swamped in disaffection
Introducing to my newborn hell

Be it not so!
Thou shall see me not in agony
Failure was and is no option
'Tis my undying self
The ever wandering son ov the morn
Abandoned, yet never to be conquered

I never mourn, I never look back as long as Thy phosphoric rays
Grant me more pleasure than pain
I, who is evil can receive no good
Though I still crave, I'm yearning for
Thy healing touch ov grace...

Pain is timeless
When I question the laws ov god
Drowned in everlasting confusion
Caress my hate against the mob

Be it not so!
Thou shall see me not in agony
Failure was and is no option
'Tis my undying self
The ever wandering son ov the morn
Abandoned, yet never to be conquered
The opponent!
My life's work is complete...

So that's why you haven't been around..I almost got worried :) My frien saw Egypt exhibition in Louvre and showed me some photos of enormous statues..now I want to see those myself..as if I'm ever getting to France.
:iconfantasmica:
Louvre is the only reason why I would like to go to France. Especially their Assyria exhibition and the beautiful, golden Lamassu. :)

illuminated by an exquisite grimace,
Look and see, atrociously contorted,
The real head, and the sincere face
Turned back under the shadow of the face which lies"
