Irina Shkonda

I dreamt to become a surgeon when a child. And now I realize that I want to marry a doctor.

I set a really high price for men. I consider them to be the core subspecies of human beings. I am far from being a feminist.

What is going to be changed after I get married? I won’t get cold in the bed. And it’s no use frightening me with bathroom turn argues.

The only thing I am superstitious about is a “hairy” token. I have my hair cut only with the lunar calendar accordance.

Now I feel relatively harmonic about the surrounding world but not about myself. I’ve got a feeling that me Perfect (is called Super Ego in deep analysis) is flying somewhere nearby, the only thing I need is to catch this very me Perfect and insert in inside. But I haven’t managed to do that so far. Who knows, maybe it’s for the best?! There’s no limit for perfection.

I have absolutely no fear for getting old as opposed to most of women. I think that is the time when a woman becomes wise. I’ve always liked energetic old ladies being constantly on the move, doing something. Regardless of the fact that I adore cats I just can’t imagine myself sitting in an armchair with a blanket and a cat on my knees. «Do nourish a contempt to rigor…»

I don’t get the point of starting off with travelling in old ages. It’s high time to create something practically useful for the coming generations, to donate more. I would go into charity, or pedagogics or art.

I am a quick off the mark kind of person. For instance last weekend I went to bed at 5 o’clock and at 9 I was woken by a phone call from my friend, the USA fan. She told me that these were a couple of days of a ticket sale in Aeroflot. We needed to hurry up with the decision! Three seconds were enough for me to make the decision. I said: “Of course, I go”. The tickets arrived the very same day, visa being received in some other couple of weeks. We are starting off soon. The most important is to easily start and the rest will run even more easier.

I adore Scandinavia. I am far from being a “sunny-beachy” person. On the contrary I prefer cool climate. I love autumn — the combination of light melancholy and bright colours!

I am afraid of getting fat, though I have not disposition to the thing. I really have compassion on people with overweight. I think that when a person is slim his thought soccur to be slim and light as well. It’s like when I put on some little more I start feeling that my thoughts seem to become lazy… I think that it’s quite difficult for big people to think.

I can’t stand people not sticking to their word.

I would give much to get the substitute word for “love”. It’s become too shopworn to keep its former romance and sincerity.
