1NDU5TЯ14L DR34M5(part. 3)

This is what the solgiers frim the first dream looked like


Well, this is another drean and I saw it a few days after the previous one. Actually it is totally different, but I was thinking about it and realized that somehow this dream could refer to the previous one. Well, I do not remember this one as detailed as previous one. However, I memorized some fragments. First of all, me and some of my friends, I don't remember who were they exactly went to MacHall and we saw a new big comic and book store which was in the area where TacoTime and Pizza73 are located(in the real life). We went there and I bought some manga book which was about an ivestigation of some accident in a top-secret military reseach facality. There were two main heroes who were investigating this accident and the only proof they had was the mysterious and strange picture of a girl in a military-style exisceleton and armed by strange weapons. And now I realised that I am in this book and I am one of that twp detectives investigating the case in the laboratory. We looked and analyzed this picture very carefully and somehow(I don not exactly know how) found a few abandoned laboratories. We have been to all of them. We found a lot of broken computer consoles, control rooms, a lot of technical and cyber equipment. Everything was grey, black dark blue and very ominous.


Is this dream related to the previous one(parts 1 & 2). May be. Who knows. Very possibly that that two detectives were investigating the accident when 4 teens came to an abandoned factory at night and were kidnapped by these evil solgiers(previuos dream and parts 1& 2). Actually that were not really solgiers, may be mercenaries of some evil corporation or even something more mysteriopus and evil. These two detectives were getting closer to it. But no one knows the truth.

1NDUSTR14L DR34MS (p. 2)

While soldiers outside started to surround and enter the building, my friends were looking at the windows and definitely, those soldiers located, where we are. I shouted "run"!!! And at this moment, we saw a mysterious, dark man in a black long leather raincoat, he walked right on the balcony outside and fortunately did not see us. We started to run away, we've been running through chambers, control rooms, abandoned devices' rooms, etc. Finally we came to a big hall with dark-green liquid on it instead of floor with the bridges on it. It was quite close to the main exit, where we came from and we rushed as fast as possible in that direction. Suddenly, I've heard the guns shooting somewhere in the very back, at the other part of the factory. Moreover; me and my friends realized, that one of us is missing and somehow, I knew that he was surrounded by those evil and vile soldiers and they probably caught him. I started to run all the way back to where the sounds of shooting guns were heard and after the last corridor I saw one of the soldiers who did not see me. On the contrary he was looking in the opposite direction. I jumped on him and tried to punch...

THE END.

Industrial dreams






In the last few days I saw two quite strange and interesting dreams, unfortunately I did not memorize most of the specific details and all the events but I remember some general information and the setting. Moreover; after I thought about it a little bit I realized that they could be connected to each other and happened at the same universe. Ok, now I will try to tell some more about it.

Part 1: The abandoned mystery

In our town, Yakutsk we have a power plant that provides both heat and electricity. In my dream there was some kind of huge abandoned factory that had some similarities with this power plant and was located at the same district, pretty close to the real one. One day, may be it was close to the evening but the Sun was still shining me and three my friends decided to enter this abandoned factory and explore it for interest and fun. As we entered the huge gate with the railways to the factory we saw the huge hall with some devices at the middle, bridges at the sides and full of wires, pipes, switches, consoles etc. Most of them were dusty, dirty and broken. We went further to the building and realized that it is very dark now and we can hardly see anything. Suddenly; after stalking in different corridors, rooms, cabins, control rooms etc., we entered to a big almost empty room and sat there on the floor talking to each other. I said that it is better to leave this evil and mysterious place because I felt that something ominous is going to happen and suddenly we hear the noise from outside. I silently moved to a big window in order to find out what is happening outside and saw a few military cars, people dressed up like special forces with helmets, masks and armors and suddenly blinding light rays appeared from the place where those people stopped. It was exactly behind us, on the factory's territory. I shouted "Don't come to the window, they can see us". In contrast, my stupid friends run to the windows and stared out...


To be continued.

Another Show in MacHall


Lagutenko

Secret Broadcast



Secret Broadcast


Friday, Feb 15 there was the gig on Ballroom. Guess who was there? Neither Canadian, nor American or British band. That time it was show of Russian pop-rock band Mumii Troll. Well, I am not their big fan or reall appreciator cuz I prefer a bit different styles of music(louder, noisyer and harder=). However; this is a second time when I see this band's liveshow, last time it was in my hometown Yakutsk in autumn 2003. Now in Ballroom it was not bad show, which reminded me home=). There were lot of Russians(well, mostly Russians). It started later that it should be, but the beginning was quite good. Calgarian band "Secret Broadcast" opened the show. I liked how they played, only 3 guys were perfoming good pop-rock. Later, after around 30 minutes of Secret Broadcast, Mumii Troll have finally appeared on the stage! Their lead-singer Ilya Lagutenko is known for his funny voice and weird manner of dancing. Any way he was pretty funny and the public(especially female) liked this and shouted after every song.




The disatvantage of the show that it was a bit too short and expencive. But I liked it anyway.

Cloverfield



Well, it is very interesting idea to advertise the movies or the music(Nine Inch Nails-Year Zero) using the interent to make an alternate reality game(ARG). The filmmakers of the movie "Cloverfield" use internet to advertise and describe some parts of the movie's stioryline. Web-sites, news in different world languages(including Russian!) and blogs of the move heroes on Myspace.com. Now, after movie I've read the history of the events from the movie, but still it is unknown, where the monster came from. It is all about Targuato, the mega corporation from Japan, it's brand Slusho, TIDOware- the environmental organization, which is against Targuato's pulluting and harmful activity. Also, it is about some substance called "Sea Nectar". This substance is deeply frozen in the deep ocean bottom. And the soft drink Slusho made of this "Sea Nectar" and it has a strange effect on human. That's why this drug drink is so popular. Targuato had a platform ih the Atlantic Ocean not far from New York that is used to extract Sea Nectar.

Once, this platform is attaked and destroyed! This accident was shown in news. So, as we can see, the film is just a part of the big story, which is far away from the end.

Favourite Books.



What books do you like the most? What is your opinion about the literature? Do you prefer classic or something new, modern and unusual? As for me I like reading a lot. It is one of my biggest hobbies since quite early childhood. I used ro read Russian fairy tales, when I was approximately 7 years old. Now I like fantasy, sci-fi, cyberpunk, classic and many more. recently I've read "Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows". Last book about Harry Potter. I started reading Harry Potter books in 2002, and now after five years that's it. And now my favoutite Harry potter book is "Harry Potter and Goblet of Fire". Last book was capturing and interesting because all the magic secrets was revealed and because of the battle between Harry and Vol-De-Mort. But the real failure is the film "Harry Potter and the Order ofd the Phoenix". This is very weak film for Harry Potter universe. The shortest film, which is based upon the longest Harry potter Novel, many interesting moments from the book was cut from the film. That's why it is boring.

First and New




Well, the New Year had come and the vacation is over.To be honest, I didn't feel pessimistic after the vacation and wanted them to continue; by the way, when I studied at the school, we had much shorter winter vacation. Now, it's time to learn English again, and I expected, that EAP 3 will be totally different, than EAP 2 and will be REALLY 0_O hard!=)


Actually, it is hard, but there are many similatities with Fall semester. Many things, we have to do, like lectures or speaking journals are pretty simiar. We do have new kinds of assignments, like term papers or book projects, but they remind to reaing projects of EAP 2. And of course, course grades are stricter, but I think, it is good for stimulating hard work.




Our teachers told us about one intresting and I've been thinking about that. And what's the real scoop is that now we are not only learning mechanics and grammar of English, but mostly we are leazrning how to apply and use English in our University experience. We are practising a lot, we are surrounded by English, we are watching movies, TV shows(I don't like to watch TV shows often, but whatever=D) . We are applying our English almost everywhere in opur casual life, and that is one of the factors, that our second language experince is increasing. Our EAP courses with lovely and funny teachers Scott and Murray are just awesome. And we are using things, that we are learning to speak, write, entertain and so on in English atmosphere.
I think, that's the best way to learn new language.


What's going on-the classes.
Music-No music now.
