Karaoke session... and good news...

Sunday was a funny day... in the end...

Although I start each application form when it is released, I usually finish right before the dead line... but last week it was wore that I could imagine :)

I had to tape a 2:30 minutes movie... Simple right? Not when the words "2006 and 2007" don't come out right :) And not when you have to do this alone... It was like "on".... "Hello, bla bla bla.... mistake... shit"..."off"... For a long period of time just like this... And the movie turned out too be very dark... Why? Well I tried to get rid of the curtains from my window, but... I forgot to turn on the light :) In the end, the output was a 137 MB movie... 2:30 minutes... How can I send this? In no way... I spent 20 minutes on youtube and still it was not ready... 10 minutes until deadline... In the end.. 10 km trip was easier and faster for the movie to arrive saftely at its destination...

The lesson? Everybody knows it: do things in time... Very easy in theory and very hard in practice..

In the end this morning started with a good news: I will be facilitator at the National Preparation Seminar at the track for newies :) (aka "membrisori") And not only me but also Cata (haha... we can sleep again in the same room, since we're both facis), Topper and Oana (she is the leader :) so she will be at the leadership track)

So after such a news how can you be, but happy? So in the office, in the morning, me and Raluca started a karaoke session which we are going to continue tonight in Coyote... We sang for at least 5 times "Tell Him" (Celine Dion) and so the other people who were in the office were already with headphones in their ears :) I wonder why... :)

I am still enjoying the simple things (although today were some hard "face the truth" moments).. And I will still dream (not in the proper meaning, because I am already sick and tired of dreaming every night) but in the sense of making wishes and seeing the future as pink (or green) as I want.. And in this way, it will actually be like that :)

p.s.: I attached two pictures: one with Raluca (and no, we were not planning since then the karaoke session :) ) and one with the girls (the latest picture).

3 more...

... to go abroad through the Exchange Program...

Ale, Beb and Cosmin (in alphabetical order :) )will soon leave in Austria, UK and Belgium... And it seems like people started to leave (I am talking about the first persons that I met in @ and a lot of them are or are about to go in another country).

Although we are preparing for the bye bye party for Ale (and Cosmin) and we are laughing I think it's going to be a little difficult because I cannot imagine that in a week she will leave...

But I am happy happy for her... I'm sure in the end everything is going to be allright (for us, the ones that still stay here) but now, there is this feeling before she is leaving... But we are already preparing the first visit :)

And there is this strange feeling inside... I don't even know if I can describe it... Though it's good that some persons are still here and there is a little bit of stability because this is a vital thing for me>>>

Sex and the city night...

Today was a girls' night out... Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda decided to go out and enjoy the evening...


We gossipped a lot, we made plans and we ate a delicious dinner... and all of these inspired us...

Output of the evening? We decided to have a lunch in September 2017 in Manhattan, New York City... Until then of course we will have other lunches and dinners together, but you know, we have a vision: Sex and the city 2017 :)

After that, at home, a quick photoshoot was directed by Charlotte... Only some of the pictures will be displayed... The rest... dessert :)

An evening like all the evenings are in the "real life"

Today was a very "real life" day... and I enjoyed it a lot...

After lunch and a meeting a had to go to University Square and after solving some problems I decided to walk instead of taking the subway or a bus (the other reason was because my monthly ticket is not valid anymore..)... And it was a good decision...

It was the middle of the day and I was taking a walk on the main street in Bucharest... People were in a hurry but I was very calm... On my way I bought a book that I am vey anxious to read (Aurora Liiceanu and Alice Nastase - Dinscolo de bine, dincoace de rau: despre iubire). I already read some pages during the 5th edition of the @ BU event calld "Access to Leadership"..

Also on my way back to the office I decided to spoil myslef... Most of the times, for me, spending money on clothes or accessories hides a frustration (or at least I was told so.. And it is kind of true.. I spend money on this kind of things only when I am angry).. Might be the case also now, but I entered one of my favourite shops and found a beautiful dress... I decided not to buy it because I needed another advice (it is a little bit shiny so not quite my style)... But still I was pretty in it..

So after "Access to Leadership" me and Oana decided to go to drink something like nothing in this world would have been planned (no other tasks, no returning home hour, no early wake up the next day)... Topper also joined us... So on our way to the coffee, we stopped again for the dress.. I already had to whom to ask for advice... But the dress was gone..

Still I am happy because I booked the same dress my size in another shop so tomorrow evening I will be trying my new dress with my high heels shoes that I wore only once :) I don't have yet any event planned for wearing them for real, but does it matter for me? NO!

As I said in a prevoius post, I spend money on junk, but on the spot, I am very happy and excited ...

So I spent the evening with Oana and Topper drinking a tea and chatting and it was soooo nice that I even forgot I should have had a skype conversation (sorry Petra)... Laughing and getting fatter (since I was told lately that I lost a lot of weight) with some yummy cakes :)

And instead of sleeping alone (which is something that I hate lately) Oana joined me at my place and we cooked and continued chatting... and at the moment she is reading (she just told me that she likes the fact that I have a lot of magazines at home) and I am writing this post but preparing to read also my new book :)

It was an incredible day... Actually, an ordinary day in which all my attention was towards only one person: ME :) And I will do this again for sure... But I will not plan it... Although for this week there is already planned a "sex and the city" getaway at a fancy restaurant :) (we still have some issues in deciding who is going to be each character from the movie :) )

Life is full of surprises and I adore the positive ones :) And I started to enjoy more and more the simple things...

Sad days in Macedonia and not only

Two days ago I received a very sad news...

I still remember the first roll call I learned in @ (couldn't dance it at all because I'm not that good at dancing and it took me a while to learn it)... And it is still my favourite ever... Tose Proeski - Pogletaj u mene...

I was talking to Martina at You Can about it and I started singing it (the way I could) and she was surprised I knew the lyrics (in Macedonian)... And the first day at You Can was full of joy because we started it by dancing and singing this roll call..

Unfortunatelly, the sad news is that Tose Proesky died at the age of 26 in a car crash in Croatia...

Lite a candle for him at the following link:

New Year's Eve Resolution

Although there are still 2 months and a half left until the New Year's Eve and I have no ideea what I am going to do for that party, I already decided what I want to do at 00:00 a.m. : I want to laugh with all my heart...

Last year I was crying exactly at 00:00 a.m. and I realised that the whole year I've been crying even for the most stupid reasons.... So I don't want to make the same mistake for the next year.. Although I might be alone, although I might be with my friends, although I might be with my colleagues... it does not matter that much... And mostly, I don't even care where I will be for the New Year's Eve... as long as I will laugh :)

So if you see me on New Year's Eve, make me SMILE :)

First blog entry ... Not an ordinary week...

My first blog ever...

Actually it is the second one but I never got to post on that one. But now, I promise I will update it... And as they say "the beginning is more difficult".

I don't even know what made me start posting exactly today. Maybe the fact that I caught myself talking by myself at home :) Or maybe because that I had an unsual week..

This week was full of good news and it all started with the fortune cookie I chose on facebook some weeks ago that said: "good news is coming to you"... And they arrived...

This week started with a very cool news: I am going to Poland. Not only that I am going to Poland but I will attend a conference for MC VPs Finance from CEE (yes, I addmit, I don't fit the profile) that will be delivered by PWC. So you can imagine I started jumping like a ball ever since I received the news. But people are happy around me because I am happy, although I think I drove them crazy with this news (thanks to them for stll standing me :) ) And so I realized that after storm comes the sun... and it is very bright. So, thank you, Malina...

And then I attended a teambuiding as a facilitator. "Big news" you might say... But this time it was in the corporate sector and it was different but still the same, and I met different people (when I say different I mean different from me... ) and earned my first money. And although they might disappear in two days on all kinds of not important things it is a new thing for me. And anyway I would have accepted to do this even for free because it was a lot of fun (of course during the sessions because during the parties I was sleeping, as usual). I felt very tired at the end although the schedule was not that tight, and I still don't have the answer "why". But it was very very nice... And I really enjoyed it mostly because I wanted to do something different, something that was not planned for ths period...

This is it for today... Tomorow I will have a post about my New Year Resolution...

Happy happy
