My name is Emilia, I am 19 and live in Poland. I have lots of interests: Celtic and Scandinavian culture, human brain, names, their etymology, popularity, all about them, folklore, psychology, medicine, languages and linguistics, horses and riding and cats. I have a 9 month old Russian blue cat called Misha and he's my best friend. I'm an introvert and I like it. I enjoy listening to music (mainly...

  • The first of my birthdays which I remember a bit was my 5th birthday. It was celebrated in the family circle and was directly before my parting with my parents and departure to the boarding school, but then I didn't know about it. I got many lovely presents and sang a lot, because I loved to sing in my childhood.
  • The next birthdays from 6th to 17th I always celebrated twice, one time with a friends, teachers and educators and the second with my family.
  • My 6th birthday in school was quite rollicking. I don't like rollicking parties and when I am in the limelights for a long time. I was one of these children in my school who were especially liked by people from Italian embassy nearby school, though I don't know why they liked me so. They arrived on my birthdays and gave me lots of presents, some of them were really great for me as a little girl.
  • On my 8th birthday, we had a little family party and my grandma ordered an Mass intention for me, (we're Catholics as we're Poles), and we're always laughing of this in the family, because the priest read that "the Mass is celebrated in intention of Emilia in her eighth DEATH anniversary" instead of birthday.
  • * My 10th birthday at home were fine and peaceful and I only remember actually that I've got a CD with radio plays for children and youth. I still love radio plays so it was wonderful and I still have that CD.
  • In my school there was a tradition, that when you celebrate your birthday, you must make a cake or at least a salad. The best it would be if you make something cheap, easy and fast, so actually everyone made the same things. One of more popular and likeable was cake with semolina and biscuits and I had to make it on my 12th birthday, even though I hate it. It's impossibly yuk! I can't understand why people there like it.
  • The most beautiful of my birthdays was 16th, my Mum did a surprise for me and invited all people that are somewhat close to me and we had a beautiful time.
  • THe next birthdays I remember was my 18th, year ago. I left boarding school so I was happy, but these birthdays wasn't very fine. My Mum insisted to do a big party and invite whole family. It was so tiring!
  • And my 19th birthday, so this year, I celebrated just being with my family, and my Mum bought me few semi-precious stones to my collection. And I hadn't go to school that day, even though it was Monday.
