a blog of Taras Filatov

I meet friends who show me their new offices, how they have developed while I’ve been doing PhD in UK. However when I ask them who do you work with, they tell me - this guy who worked with you earlier does this for us, and that guy you had given us the contact does that. Either our world is a small village or I’m very good in finding proper people for certain IT jobs.

Enough of studying

Ok I’m now reaching the next stage of my life as I’m finishing my PhD research here at Wessex Insitute of Technology and going to be off to Ukraine in the end of this month.

There are going to be a couple of leaving parties, one is “Russian Style Extravaganza ” organised by my housemate Laura Dennison (aka Larisa Denisova) probably on Saturday 22nd which will involve some coctails, a meal and dirty pub (namely Frog and Frigate) in the end; I’m also thinking about BBQ at the Institute on Sunday (chicken, beer & voleyball, relaxing style) but we’ll see how it goes.

I’m looking forward to my departure to Ukraine as I link with it a new, more active, stage of my life. I have tons of projects and ideas which wait to be realized.

My Corolla

I have sold my car today, my nice Toyota Corolla Kudos which has served exceptionally well, in true samurai style, during these 2 years. I’ve made almost 20.000 miles over UK with it usually having a bunch of friends inside and visiting such places as Wales and Cornwall. I have never had any major problem with it. It is likely that my next car will be Toyota as well. Thank you, my red birdie

To move is to live

There is a Russian saying that 1 move of the house is worse than 3 fires. I don’t subscribe to this point of view I like to move, I like to travel. This refreshes my mind and gives me an understanding of which things are important and which I can do without. I take the best - lots of new useful experience, new attitude to life and links with many good folk - with me, and may the unnecessary things dissolve in the fog of Albion and be taken away by the North Sea.

Good luck my precious self, good luck everybody

Dixi

I have just installed the Wordpress for my own blog however did it many times previously for our clients *.

Here I would try to write mostly in English however Russian posts would also be present. I’ve installed the Langswitcher plugin in order to allow my visitors to view the posts written in their preferred language. We’ll see how it works.

I have also installed:
