Guys!! You're the best!! It was the most overwhelming Birthday ever! And all of you were a huge part of it! But...let me start from the very beginning :)
Since most of my friends are quite older than I am, they were all working, but luckily the most amazing girl came all the way from Nizhniy Novgorod to Saint-Petersburg to see the city, its people and me. We met and went to the fair. It is the hugest fair in the city and one of the biggest in Russia, just look at the plan!
We wanted to ride an enourmous rollercoaster (it's not on the plan, because it's brand new), they say it's the biggest one in Russia and it does look terribly huge! But it wasn't working due to some technical problems, so we decided to ride the second big rollercoaster. It didn't look very scary, but oh god, it was!! We couldn't physically film the ride, so here's the YouTube video for you to experience it :)
And this is us just after riding it!
We survived that and all of the sudden felt very brave and went to another attraction which is called "Rocket". You all remember very well how afraid I am of height, so just watch the video and try to imagine how I felt there!
This video shows hot it looks from the ground.
And this one is the first person video. I feel so sick scared again just watching it!
This was the scariest and the most powerful experience in my life! I was so much afraid of falling down of this thing! My legs were flying up to my head and I was screaming so loud, I think the whole city heard me! The flow of air was also getting to my mouth so it was very funny at the same time. When we got out of it we were screaming and dancing and whatnot. God, felt so good to be on the ground again, but that feeling of flying above the city and the view we witnessed was just literally breathtaking! So that was how we were on the brink of death and actually saw it! I feel that I'm scared of nothing now. Well, except spiders, I'm still terrified of them.
This us being happy that we survived!
Our next stop was the contact zoo. It is the place where you can feed and touch the animals. And I LOVE animals, so it was the perfect place! Guys, I almost died there! I huged and fed a PORCUPINE!! She was sooo sweet and so lovable!
And there was a little "room" full of rabbits! We entered it and died! They were so cute and so soft and they tried to steal our food and were jumping around so quickly that it was impossible to take a picture with them, so we just took a picture of them being very sexy after we left.
There also was a pretty cool raccoon! He loved to climb to the top of his cage and then slide back down on the little tree trunk he had there. We had to take a selfie with him!
There was also a baby doe and LOTS of guineapigs which we fed and had fun with and a little baby kangaroo!! While I was offering him a treat, he grabbed my hand with his soft tiny little palms while eating it! And then he smiled at me! Oh my, it was the best feeling on Earth! We forgot about our age and felt we were little children there again. So this is how we've seen childhood.
The culmination of that magical day was a gig of the band we used to listen in 2007,2008,2009 when Emo culture was very popular. The reason we went is that because they played at the club they used to play their very first gigs when they were not popular at all and that they promised to play the old stuff. Guys, can you imagine listening to the songs you used to crazy love almost 10 years ago? And to listen to them live? We rocked our asses off there! We danced and sang so much and so loud that my body hurts and I have no voice, but GOD was it awesome! And people in the audience were our age and even older, they were wearing nice clothes and had great tattoos and style, some of them came with children. And this is what amazed me most! I used to see the very same people being Emo teenagers junking around, but look at them now! So much older, but in my taste so much better :) It's impressive to see the whole generation growing up! WOW! My phone died by the time the concert began, so I'll just show you the video of the song I love most :) If you like them, check them out! They're quite awesome!
I arrived home and thought that nothing could surprise me anymore, but then I saw HOW MANY comments and love you showed me here, guys!!!! I actually cried, that's how happy I was! So many of you care! You guys are amazing, and I love you with my whole heart! Thank you for your words of love, for gifts some guys sent me, for shoutouts and for being you! Welcome, new followers!
