2007

I wonder how many millions of similar posts, letters, notes, just thoughts there are around the world now.

Definitely that was a great year. (It cannot be another way after the New Year Party in the flat of our green Olya we had last year :)

End of my EB term, admission to HSE, trip to Tashkent and lots of other great, unforgettable events.

Sometimes it was difficult. But that one I needed to become stronger and more clever. And I am really grateful for people who moved me towards those diffculties: sometimes on purpose, but mainly things just happened.

But the most part was just amazing. Challenging, educating, developing. It made me value simple things much more than I used to: family, friends, country. Things that we possess and miss. Differences in people.

But, however great was 2007, I believe 2008 will be even better. It should be. This is the only way things can happen :)

I wish you the very best 2008 possible and thank you for making 2007 so great!
