Today we went to Triglav (which used to be the tallest mountain in Yugoslavia but is now, coincidentially, the tallest mountain in Slovenia). We went swimming in this really nice lake. It actually didn't last very long, because right when we started swimming, I reminded everybody of the last time we went there, when Mami got a leech bite. We went back to the beach pretty soon after that. And then it got cloudy and nasty anyway, so we went to this restaurant with the best mushroom soup ever. After that, it was sunny and hot again, so I managed to get everybody to visit the little Savica. It's actually the very beginning of the Sava River, which, if you go to Belgrade, you will find is huge. And very polluted. But this was barely more than a brook, so I made it my goal to wade across and then I could tell everybody that I'd waded across the Sava. :)
Well, anyway, it turns out that the river is ICE COLD at that point. Hehe. Anyway, I remembered this thing where they said that swearing helps when you want to do something like that. So I kept up a constant stream of "shitty shit crap crap f*ckity f*ck jebote bog", and, guess what? I crossed the river! Yippee! :D
When we got back to Ljubljana, we decided to go bike riding. Ljubljana is probably the most bike-friendly city you'll ever find. There are bike lanes on every single street, and they even have a bike-riding test that all people have to take when they're 10 years old. But unfortunately, my bike visit was cut short. I was biking normally when, for no apparent reason, the bike just slips and falls over. It was actually sort of funny, because when most people would be saying "Ow, that hurt," I was just saying "How the hell did that happen?" It wasn't really anything serious, but it was enough to make us cut short our bike ride. *sigh*
You know, that same thing happened the last time I went bike riding in Ljubljana. But then I rode on a piece of candy wrapping while I was turning, so I figured it was that. Now there's no explanation. I think the city must hate me.
Well, tomorrow we're leaving to L. And then, in September, school will start. (Noooooooo...)
Oh, well, at least my parents owe me £25 for my allowance. Even though I'm going to splurge it all on books the moment I get it...because I'm me...;P
Listening to "Sea of Tranquility" by Siouxsie (Not of my own accord. It's the music that's being played for the party.),

What's (funny looking L)25 in American dollars?
Funny looking L is pounds. Like the currency of England and all.
That's about $41. But it turned out that they actually only owe me £20, which is only about $33. But then they gave me £10 for lunch and I never spent it, so now I have about $50! :D
Btw, it's option-3 for £. ;)
