Man, what a day! I’m tellin’ ya, being a potter in Irmino is like riding a rollercoaster blindfolded. So, I wake up, right? Sun’s shining, birds are chirping, and I’m like, “Today’s gonna be chill.” Spoiler alert: it wasn’t. First off, I hit up the local market on Shchorsa Street. You know, the one with all the fresh veggies and that crazy old lady selling pickles? Yeah, her. I’m just minding my own biz, lookin’ for some clay, when BAM! This dude bumps into me. I spill my coffee all over my apron. Like, seriously? Who raised you, man? Anyway, I grab my clay from the usual spot near the bus station. The guy there, Vasyl, is always crackin’ jokes. He’s like, “You makin’ pots or just throwin’ mud?” I laugh, but inside I’m like, “Dude, I’m a freakin’ artist!” But whatever, I just roll with it. So, I get back to my studio on Haharina Street, right? It’s this cozy little place, full of my creations. I’m all set to start workin’ on this new vase. I’m feelin’ inspired, ya know? But then, outta nowhere, the power goes out! Like, come on! I can’t throw pots in the dark! I’m flippin’ out, pacing around like a caged animal. I decide to take a break and head to the café on Kostiantynivska Street. Best coffee in town, no cap. I walk in, and it’s packed. I mean, who knew Irmino had this many coffee lovers? I finally snag a seat, and this cute girl sits next to me. We start chatting, and I’m thinkin’, “Wow, maybe today ain’t so bad after all.” But then, she spills her drink all over my sketchbook. Ugh! I’m tryin’ to play it cool, but inside I’m like, “Why is the universe against me?” I mean, I’m just a potter, not a disaster magnet! But she’s super apologetic, and we end up laughing about it. Turns out, her name’s Oksana, and she’s into ceramics too. What are the odds? After that, I head back to my studio, and guess what? The power’s back! I’m pumped! I start throwin’ clay like a madman. It’s like the universe is finally on my side. I’m lost in the rhythm, and before I know it, I’ve made this sick vase. It’s got curves, it’s got style—total masterpiece! But then, just as I’m admiring my work, I hear this loud crash outside. I rush to the window, and there’s a cat stuck in a tree! I’m like, “Seriously? A cat?!” But then I see this little kid crying, and my heart melts. So, I grab my jacket and head out. I climb the tree like I’m some kinda superhero. The kid’s lookin’ at me like I’m a legend. I finally get the cat down, and the kid’s face lights up. It’s like I just saved the world or something. I’m feelin’ like a rockstar! After all that chaos, I finally sit down on my porch on Haharina Street, watchin’ the sunset. I’m exhausted but happy. Irmino’s wild, man. It’s got its ups and downs, but it’s home. I wouldn’t trade it for anything. So yeah, that was my day. Full of spills, thrills, and a heroic cat rescue. Just another day in the life of a potter in Irmino. Can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings!
