Oh, I just adore alpheratz.

Look, my childhood, come alive on LJ!

Happy Soviet Labor Day! Heee.

Mir, Trud, Mai. And stuff. I'm still giggling. My dad woke up this morning and asked my mom and I when we're going to the demonstration. Alas, no demonstrations here. It used to be such an event, I even dreamed about it about a week ago, pre-emptively. I woke up thinking "must not be late to the demonstration!" It actually made me sad that there wasn't one.

Wow, Communist rearing, what?

Ha! I've never been to a May First parade. Oh, the peculiarities of being born mid-Perestroika. And my dad says he hasn't been there since they made him go when he was in his first year of university. :D:D:D

Really? Actually, some of my fondest childhood memories are from those demonstrations. I was too young to understand, but I loved everybody getting dressed up in Spring clothes and the sunshine and the huge crepe paper flowers and the bright flags. For a kid, it was the best. *g*

Да здраствует indeed!

And you wore those big, pouffy white pom-poms in your hair on the first day of school, didn't you? ;-)

(Why am I not the least surprised there would be few, if any demonstrations down in the States?)
