Някои ученици са силни в едни области, други – в различни, но никой не е еднакво способен и в осемте. В обществото на възрастните се приема за даденост, че не можем ... |

Виждах само себе си, тичащ навън. И така - тичах. Тичах нагоре-надолу по всяко игрище и след всяка топка. Заради теб. Ти поиска моя хъс, аз ти дадох сърцето си, защото то просто искаше да даде повече. Играх, въпреки потта и всяка болка, не заради ... |

It was meant as a record of the fast restructuring of our minds and attitudes in time of economic and sociopolitical transition and cultural transcendence, seen from a changing Bulgarian perspective where the world came upon our horizon English-speaking.
