“Don’t tell them you can see”.
(...) I woke up in the middle of the night. It was so hot that I had to open the window. As I did that, cold air entered my room and I felt sleepy again. Unfortunately I woke up again but this time it was my phone’s fault. It had been ringing all time. Notification after notification. I reached to my nightstand and grabbed it checking what is going on. Suddenly I realized it has got colder outside because I was freezing cold. I opened my eyes for the first time since I woke up only to realize there was snow all over my room. With the shock I got up and uttered simple “What”. We were in the middle of July and there is snow in my room “How is that possible” I thought as I took my phone to check what was happening. All of my massages were short. Just “Don’t look at the moon”. I scrolled down. All the same. Suddenly I got a new massage with content saying “It is beautiful night tonight. Look outside”. As I read that I didn’t have time to think as my dad slammed through the door saying “It’s time. We should go”. I had no idea what was going on, I was terrified. “Put some warm clothes and go downstairs. There is no time for questions so do what I’m telling you and most important, don’t look at the moon”. I trusted him so I opened my closet looking for winter clothes as my father was closing the window and pulling curtains over them.

A thrilling story part 1
“Don’t tell them you can see”
“You know I’ll win”. I said.
“And you know I’ll fight”. He responded to me while throwing sheets over me and running away. I acted immediately and started chasing my best friend. ‘Tagpok’ was our little game we would play every day just for fun.
I have known Erick for almost four years. We met on a beach 20 minutes form my house, where he asked me for help. Since then he is my best friend and the best dork I have ever known. His sense of humor is truly incomparable.
“I knew he would run away there”. I told to myself as I saw him hiding behind one of the tree in our so called forest. My mom would always laugh at me saying that there are fewer trees then in our garden. I tapped Erick on the shoulder scaring him so much that he shouted a very loud “Oh my God”. I gave him a big smile and said how predictable he was. Erick proposed to sit on our bench that we made long time ago. We were so tired. Even though we were almost seventeen this game will never get boring. I assumed we’ve been talking for a long time because it starting to get dark. It was middle of the summer so I thought it is probably already 9 o’clock at night. But when I looked at my phone I got confused. It was just 5:30, which it couldn’t be that dark at this hour. I turned to my friend and showed him what time it is, while asking why it is so dark at such hour. However he looked in my eyes smiled and then again focused his gaze on the view. This is the thing I always wonder about him. Why he is so mysterious. Everyone knows he is a private person and I am glad to admit that I am the only one that knows a lot about him. But I just ignored that and said we should better be going. When I got home I told my mom quick hi and went upstairs to my room. It was getting darker and darker which caused my mood to change and I felt very sleepy. That is why I decided to go to sleep because not only I was extremely tired but I had school tomorrow.

Trip of my life
Hi everyone!
I’m writing this post to tell you about my trip to France. It was the best day of my life...
I won this trip on a lottery. I spent the trip completely for free together with my friends. We visited the most interesting places such as: Eiffel Tower, Palace of Versailles and Mont Saint-Michel!
We had opportunity to learn french language and taste french delights. In the evenings we went to parties. We had fun with wonderful music. Unfortunately, we had to come back one day earlier because there was a virus threat. I liked the trip very much, I learned many interesting things about this beautiful country. I also saw many interesting places and monuments.
I totally recommend visiting this charming country. In the future I want to go there again!
Take care!

Hello!
I've long been a fan of ski jumping. I watch every competition.
Some time ago a competition on the Lysgardsbakken in Lillehammer took place. The conditions in Lillehammer were unpleasant and Kamil Stoch was the one who was least impressed by that. Stoch posted jumps of 131.5 m and 139.5 m and came in 5.3 points ahead of Ziga Jelar. The Pole won for the 36th time in his career and the third time at the Olympic facility Lysgardsbakken.
Kamil said "My jumps were very good today, I'm very satisfied with today's competition, even if it was not easy in these conditions".
He also took the overall lead in the RAW AIR overall ranking with his win today. Two more Poles scored points - Piotr Zyla (129 and 111 metres), who was 25 and Maciej Kot (122 and 113 m), who finished the competition at 28th. a place. However, they did not advance to the final series Jakub Wolny and Pawel Wasek. It was a great competition, certainly not to forget to for a long time.
I always keep my fingers crossed for the Poles to win!

OLD =/= BAD
Music is like tradition, with deep roots in our lives. Everybody loves it, no matter what! Sometimes it is determined by mood or occasion. Nowadays we can listen via Youtube, Spotify, Tidal, ITunes and much more. Its easy to find artists, genre or even search a song by lyrics or by cover and it's great!
Recenly, I've wanted to bring up some old hits, like Abba's "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" or songs that I heard multiple times on TV in early 00's. A bit of cringe, typical party hits with 8bit tunes. Old but still so good, it was like "Back to the Future" thing for my mind. Now when all the songs are similar to each other, tell the same story often in offensive way. I know that everybody has unique taste, but this isn't an argument to stick to only one music genre, because You don't know "old songs". People should try everything before they judge different kinds of music. However, music has to share good vibe and mood, of course "new wave music" also can share it, but this feeling when you hear a song that You haven't heard for a long time is wonderful.

Surprising Gateway part 2
After 10 hours of flying we got to our accommodation. It was a very decent apartment. Because we were tired,
we went to sleep. In the morning, we agreed to split because we didn’t know each
other well. And so we did.
After
eating delicious meal and buying a lot of souvenirs I got back to the apartment.
There I saw Drake and Jason wondering about something. “Jason bought a
coat, but what is weird is that the left pocket is stitched and something is in
there”. So Drake decided to see what there was inside and he pulled out a
piece of paper. It was a map, something was marked on it and not seeing the reason against it,
we agreed to check it out. So we packed our stuff and were ready for a
treasure hunt.
After one
hour of walking Drake and I couldn’t find Jason anywhere, but then we heard
someone calling my name. It was our magician who fell into the hole and found a silver necklace. After that, we were so exhausted that we stopped and
sat down under the trees. When I was about to eat my sandwich we heard voices.
This really was getting creepy because we were in the middle of nowhere, there
was not a single soul out there.
We spent two
more hours walking and this was getting suspicious. No human, not even an
animal - just us. Suddenly, we saw a lady. When we got near her I got a better
look. She was probably in her late 70s. What surprised us, was her, speaking
English and telling us to give back her necklace. Another suspicious ting. How
did she know we had found something? Either way, we
gave back the jewellery and also asked about the mark on the map. “Oh!
You are almost there” she told us. Three minutes later in the forest we saw a
camp. A group of people was sitting in a circle talking to each other.
“You know what?” told Jason “It was just a coincidence and I’m very
tired so I’m going to join them” .We ignored this weird feeling we had
and also agreed to spend time with them.
After a
couple of hours I could say THE BEST GETAWAY EVER!

Surprising getaway
I am walking to my university. It is Monday and I’ve already spilled green tea all
over my pants and on top of that I had an exam at 9 I didn’t even study for.
My name is Caleb and I’m a typical student, living in the New York City.
On my
way home after the lectures, I saw a billboard that said “Lottery
of a getaway. Spend your best holiday on Ibiza”. It did sound amazing and convinced
me to go sign up for it. When I got there the lady told me to wait about 1 or
2 weeks and the winners will be chosen and announced. So I went home hoping
that I would have a little bit of luck.
Finally, it
was time to announce the winners. I was
getting ready when the lady from the lottery shop called me. She told me that I'd
won a free holiday. This had to be the best day of my life. But she also told
me I wasn’t the only winner and I was going to spend almost two weeks with two
strangers. The next morning, I got to the airport and I was introduced to the
men I was supposed to travel with. Jason the
magician and Drake the hacker. This was going to be an interesting trip...
To be contiunued...
