Of course, it all starts in childhood. I was a very stubborn and opiniated child. This was a problem for my mom. Firstly, in Soviet Union, people were simply not allowed to think differently.

This is a story from my early childhood. I was around 3 years old. In those times, we didn't have smart phones and computers were a luxury.

Day, 30. Challenge is Over
On August, 16, I decided to go for a 30-day blog marathon, while going through a terrible leg pain. The initial idea was to post every day, thus, the expected final day was September, 15.
