My Home city

Plovdiv

The Bulgarian town of Plovdiv is situated along the two banks of the river Maritza with its slow water, and also on a number of picturesque hills (called 'tepe' by the local people) that are part of the town's charm and beauty.

Plovdiv is located in the Southern/Central part of Bulgaria. Being the second largest city in the country, it has a population of 850'000. There is a kind of magic in Plovdiv in all seasons. The town is always unique and fascinating. In the winter it is fabuously white; in the spring it is covered with green and flowers, in the summer it is almost unreal in the ghastly heat of Thracia, in the autumn it is calm and placid, with ripe figs and sweet grapes dropping into soft foliage... Plovdiv can hardly be described in simple words... One should see it and feel its unique atmosphere in order to understand it.

Dr. Ivan Chomakov is the Mayor of Plovdiv since October 1999. Born in Plovdiv in 1953, he graduated from the Medical School in the city in 1979. Dr. Chomakov specialized in surgery under the guidance of Dr. Chirkov, one of the top surgeons in Bulgaria. He has 32 publications in the field.





Dr. Chomakov is elected Member of the Parliament and is a regional leader of the Union of the Democratic Forces in Plovdiv.

R&B princess Rihanna arrived Friday in Sofia for a concert, which is part of the European tour of the star.

Rihanna is accompanied by a team of 37 people, 11 of whom will join her on the open-air stage at Alexander Batenberg Square Friday night.

The organizers from Bulgaria's third mobile operator Vivatel announced the event is free for all who want to see the pop idol.

The 19-year-old star is expected to sing her top hit Umbrella and other fan favourites in an one-hour glamour show.

About 300 guards are protecting the singer, who is the biggest contemporary pop star visiting Bulgaria according to music industry experts.

Rihanna received her big break at the age of 15 when one of her friends introduced her to music producer Evan Rogers, who was vacationing in singer's home Barbados.

Rogers, along with his partner, Carl Sturken, helped Rihanna record material in the US, which was sent to various recording companies. One copy of Rihanna's work was sent to Jay-Z, who eventually signed her to Def Jam Records.

Currently, the singer is working with great stars such as Justin Timberlake and the hit producer Timbaland.

Emilia - Big Big Girl Lyrics

I'm a big big girl
In a big big world
It's not a big big thing if you leave me
But I do do feel that
I do do will miss you much
Miss you much...
I can see the first leaf falling
It's all yellow and nice
It's so very cold outside
Like the way I'm feeling inside
I'm a big big girl
In a big big world
It's not a big big thing if you leave me
But I do do feel that
I do do will miss you much
Miss you much...
Outside it's now raining
And tears are falling from my eyes
Why did it have to happen
Why did it all have to end
I'm a big big girl
In a big big world
It's not a big big thing if you leave me
But I do do feel that
I do do will miss you much
Miss you much...
I have your arms around me ooooh like fire
But when I open my eyes
You're gone...
I'm a big big girl
In a big big world
It's not a big big thing if you leave me
But I do do feel that
I do do will miss you much
Miss you much...
I'm a big big girl
In a big big world
It's not a big big thing if you leave me
But I do feel I will miss you much
Miss you much...

Karizma

Here is my favourite duet, called Karizma. Their new video is out now. Here is some info about it.



Bulgarian pop duet KariZma made a video of the most tender song on their debut album Ecclesiast, according to the singers.



The song is called "All In Love" and it is the second song from the Ecclesiast album KariZma have filmed. The pop duet says this is the most senual song they have ever written.

The script is written by the duo Galya and Miro, themselves. It tells the story of the relationship of two people in love, who constantly try to trick each other. At the end one of them always looses the game. The idea is to show that people should just love each other instead of playing silly games.

The video is shot in black and white and it slightly reminds of Bertoluci's movies. The song will be ready to storm Bulgaria's charts in October.

KariZma finally released their first album after seven years on stage and six mega hits that topped the local music charts for months.

wow

Make love not Warcraft



May be some of you like World of Warcraft but here is the place I can express my own opinion about this game.
I do not really have any experience in this game, but I think I hate it since the moment I have heard about it.
