This is a quick little post about my ongoing love affair with Mladost 1A.

Between the <a href="http://www.karolinkabulgaria.com/2011/10/25/my-new-metro-stop-in-mladost/" target="_blank">new metro stop set to open this year</a>, the <a href="http://www.karolinkabulgaria.com/2011/10/27/my-neighborhood-sladkarnitsa/" target="_blank">new  skaldkarnitsa</a>, me finding <a href="http://www.karolinkabulgaria.com/2011/12/17/a-second-package/" target="_blank">the post office (block 555)</a> and a<a href="http://www.karolinkabulgaria.com/2011/08/29/what-what-a-bike-path-in-mladost/" target="_blank"> bike path</a>cutting through greater Mladost, there's a lot for a girl to do, to see and to eat.

I've been busy supporting local business. There's the corner shop I call my own and the guy who works there laughs at me every time I fail to open the door correctly--is it push? is it pull? I don't even know now. I'm in the process of single handily keeping <a href="http://www.karolinkabulgaria.com/2011/06/20/buying-sunscreen-at-the-drugstore/" target="_blank">my drugstore</a> in business. Plenty of times over the last few weeks I've thought about getting my hair cut but I've been too busy to make an appointment at my salon across the street. I must remember to do this. I've worn my hair in a ponytail for the last week.

Though recently, we've had one loss. The hardware, plumbing supply shop that opened in my building about a year ago closed over Christmas. This of course was a shop I never went it but it was a comfort knowing it was there. The good news is that the sex shop which moved in about the same time still seems to be going strong. Okay I see the girl who works there out front smoking and drinking coffee more often than not so I am not sure how good business is but whatever.

Here's what I know: things are happening in Mladost 1A. And now I have a t-shirt to prove it.
