Just flexing the muscle

I use to have a blog earlier, but i stopped writing because nobody was reading that crap of mine. I know that probably none will read this thing also, but I also know that I want to write it.
This guy, he is a journalist from USA TODAY and at 17.10.2017 today (funny) he was speaking in front of the members of Society for Professional Journalists about his career. He was so motivating and was telling the students that they should write stuff all the time. He gave one comparison about writing with "flexing muscle". I guess that is some kind of american expression, but regardless it reminded me on fitness. And if you think about it journalism, writing or communicating is lot like fitness. You can learn as much as you want, you can read about it, you can take classes about fitness, but you will not get the results unless you start "flexing your own muscles".
- Don't care too much, if none reads that, even if it is only read by your mother, sister and grandmother, as long as you are flexing that muscle you are doing good, he said.
So, I'm just flexing the muscle, but that does not mean that this is readable.

Коронавирус донесе две епидемии

Живееме во време кога достапот до информации е најлесен од било кој момент во човечката историја, а сепак е време на најголем број на дезинформации и демонстрација на незнаење. Сигурно за целото време додека трае ова со Корона вирус сте слушнале многу од ваши пријатели или познаници со муабети „ракија го лечи Корона, ако ракија дезинфицира раце зошто да не дезинфицира од внатре?“, „Ова е измислен вирус во лабораторија, го измислија да ја срушат кинеската економија“, „Вирусот не ни постои, станува збор за обичен грип“, „Американците го имаат лекот и го чуваат да го пуштат во погодно време“ итн. Многу од овие тврдења доаѓаат од луѓе кои немаат никаква врска со биологија, медицина, епидемиологија и слично. Многу често пишувам за дезинформациите и многу често се држам до тезата дека дезинформациите не можат да се запрат, она што може е да не им веруваме или да знаеме критички да селектираме. Можеме да забележиме дека речиси со секој предизвик со кој се соочува човештвото дополните...

I've met Casey Neistat

I've met the man. The golden boy of YouTube. New York City in front of his office. I was on my way to the bus with which I should have traveled to Washington DC. The subway left me three blocks from the meeting point. I was an hour early. I said to my self that I will pass by Casey's office, it is on my way to the bus anyway. For the record, I'm huge fun of Casey Neistat and his work. If you have asked me which celebrity i would like to meet the most, I would certainly answer Casey Neistat. I arrived in front of his office, and called a friend of mine who is also fan of Casey. He did not answered my call. I called coworker of mine, he also like Casey very much. I was showing him where I was, and suddenly in my frame Casey showed up. He was leaving a store next to his office. Me: Ej Casey (Ej is Macedonian, i was not able to use my English, because i was too excited). Casey : Hi man. What's up? Me: Can we take a picture....of...hum... Casey: Sure man. Me: ...
