Happy birthday to you
happy birthday to you,
happy birthday dear Gogol
Happy birthday to you!
Okay, so for those of you who are unaware, this is the 200th Birthday of Gogol, the 2nd greatest Russian writer (after Pushkin, of course). I happened to walk to the end of Gogol Boulevard today before I went to my class, and when I was about half way to the statue of Gogol, I noticed that there were probably 50-75 people just hanging out there, playing music, (drums in particular) and just enjoying being in the shadow of a great writer. This was, of course, before I knew what day it was. Just another cultural tidbit for you!
