Today the day was full of new aquaintances and events. In the middle of the day we met with Seda at the center and had an icecream from MC'donalds. It was so sweet. Then we went to a planning meeting in Tamam's office, where we spoke about starting a new group for only girls. At least people think there is a need for doing so, because some female immigrants cannot attend activities for both genders because of some religious assumptions, or personal shyness. We came to conclusion that each of us will get contacts of girls, and ask of their interest in different types of activities.
Most astonishing thing for me was that many young people here in Sweden are very much interested in election, and most of them were disgraced with the results, that Swedish Democrats took some places in the Parliament. This party is known as a racist one. There had been several protest strikes at Stockholm, and in Malmö. Gustaf, Karrin and other members from Tamam are going to the central station to strike against Swedish Demokrats as well. As far as I understood eventhough these strikes would not influence the results, residents showing their disagreeing. Hope, that young people in Kyrgyzstan will also take an active part in elections coming in October.
Every thursday English cafe for adults takes place. It is a meeting platform for migrant teenagers and international student. Usually different activities are organized. Today some people played table tennis, billyard, prepared Australian cookies and just had warm talks with each other.
