pampered life

Ahhh.. yesterday was the first day I went shopping in a long long while... and for a change, it was not a food hunt :). Since I m planning to go to st peterburg, a friend advised me to learn the russian language... Plus was thinking of going cycling today, which meant, i desperately wanted to be the proud owner of a cycling map... (which, ended up costing me 30 franks!!! )...

Finally stepped into a bookstore, so now my to read list is slightly longer. Ended buying more japanese textbooks, because ever since my naruto-craze, I have decided that i should actually pick up japanese again (besides the word Baka-- idiot), and itatakimasu (lets eat!)... Ok so actually I am excited because I actually understand more than that. The unfortunate thing is Tacci-san is not around and I dont have any japanese friends around here to practice on....
So the japanese text is called Japanisch in Sauseschritt... looks pretty cool, beacuse everyting is almost in japanese (i got the hiragana/katakana version, with minimal phonetic trans)... making life difficult for myself....

Also decided that I should be reading more german literature ... so lets... see.... (plus got a book on the history of swiss art collections since 1849...) (or the date somewhere aoround there.. 150 years of swiss art collecitons... pretty cool)...

btw, now it is mondya... was raining on sunday, so canceled the cycling trip, and decided to go to basel to the vitra-design museum.. have to blog on this because architecturally, this was great....
