Doua saptamani in Danemarca

And counting.

Nu pot sa zic inca cum e viata de studenta in Danemarca pentru ca abia luni incep scoala dar momentan e promitator. Sunt departe de comfort zone, 2200 km departare intr-un apartament cu ferestre mari mai exact si uite ca se poate.

Locuiesc la mare!

...intr-un oras cu niste delulete faine(cam greu de urcat cu bicicleta uneori though) dar merita daca vrei sa mergi la fjord sa vezi marea de pe un ponton micut de lemn sau sa te uiti la barcile cu vele asteptand in port :)

Pot sa spun ca simt o diferenta intre tara mea si aici dar nu e cum mai asteptam, da, mi-e dor de casa dar nu imi displace locul, imi place ca toata lumea e calma, imi place si ploaia chiar(daca nu trebuie sa merg prea mult prin ea) si-mi plac la nebunie terasele cu ferestre mari de la casele daneze!(si pisicile grasune care stau la ferestre)

Until further notice and imminent internet connection at home,
over and out,

Sometimes it's best to close your eyes, hold my hand and cross the street ♥

'Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore.'

woke up with this on my mind :)

Words

Words, words, words...

I wrote and checked so many on my ‘Things to do in life’ list that I truly feel like another person. A better and upgraded version of me. A version that is not only no longer afraid to pick up the rock and throw it in the ocean but dive in for a swim! It has taken quite a large number of baby steps to get here but I am oh-so-happy and treasure each and every one of them. They've led me to where I'm heading today! <3

I shall divide this post in two parts: bad words and good words. As every individual I had to deal with both. Some coming from directions I never expected. As always I was more surprised by the bad ones...but maybe I should have seen that coming. :)

Considering the fact that I only received good news I choose to talk about the bad words first because I want to end my post in a as happy as me note! This is for those who gave up on me when I most needed them, those who not only turned their heads away but picked up a stick and drew a thick line between us like I had some kind of a bad sign on my forehead. Never thought my well-being could affect someone so much.

And now comes the time when I like to turn to the ones that have been near me and be grateful for their constant support. My strength lies in all the times I only saw ‘no’ and you taught me the word ‘yes’. Letter by letter I learned to spell and understand its true meaning!

'Life is a challenge, meet it!'

Every path is as right as you believe it to be.

Roadblocks

...into what delusional world are we living that at every crossroad, instead of choosing a path and possibly not find only happiness and sunshine on it but still take the chance, one only seems to build up roadblocks and can't even imagine the mere existence of hope for better future?

As days pass by and I get closer to the need of making more and more choices it becomes difficult to struggle with the part of me that is afraid of opening doors and going outside and the part that screams 'it's alright to do so'. Why can't I find such small things normal and easy to do? Most of you dream and reach out; I dream of open spaces too, I’m just afraid of them, that's all.

It is not a surprise that it is easier to do something when you know that at the end of the day you return to the comfort zone: watch a movie, talk to a friend, take a bath and relax. It stops being easy when the distance between you and the comfort zone becomes measured in 3 or 4 digits, when the simple thought of crawling into the bed you know, the pillow you like, becomes unreachable.

You leave on a quest for reaching goals and end up longing for what you’ve left behind. Shouldn't we be afraid of the situation when, instead of adapting to goals you abandon them in order to return to what you know?

...used to

Introspections...why are we bound to make them when our schedules seems to overflow with too many tasks to complete, too many places to be, too many people to see... It’s that exact time when you’re supposed to be working because of wasting serious amounts of time over useless nothings when everything turns against you; clocks and deadlines mostly.

Am I the only one with the urge to ignore and bury self for lack of time management and motivation skills? Probably not(considering the fact that I’m not the only one affected by that) but it sure isn’t a comfort not to be alone through this. Dragging others over your own mistakes will not make you feel better, it will make you regret that ‘I’ll do that later, as a matter of fact, why not tomorrow.’ said on occasions you should have braced the last drop of will in you and commence.

These are the times when I most wish not to press the repeat button for certain mistakes. I’ve already done them on other occasions, life, why bother doing it again now eh? Even I am tired of my ‘I’ll do better next time’...what if someday there will be no next time? If that time lapse remote is somewhere...I’d have a few stops and rewinds to juggle with, probably some slow-motion movie moments also, if it’s not too much to ask for.

Does all this even have a point, make a sense and is worth the struggle? Will we find ourselves after many years with grandchildren on our laps telling them stories about our early years with a Mona Lisa smile hanging in between our wrinkled cheeks? Or will we find ourselves yet again longing for that wasted time and missed chances?

It all seems to be revolving around questions for which I only posses vague answers. Why is it so easy to miss a step and Go back to (the hazy)Start yet so hard to make a step forward?

/Insert optimistic thoughts here.

If it wouldn't hurt, we'd be all alone.

Something new

Here's to my first time of wearing anything but sunglasses. Apparently it's not thaaaat bad, plus, if I keep this post I'll remember when I got them :"> (if you have short memory loss, please press 9, if you have short memory loss, please press 9, if you have short memory loss, please press 9, if you have short memory loss, please press 9...)

If you have difficulties digesting me I can easily recommend a list of pills and a 'get over it', thankfully the world doesn't end here.

Things to do in life

For a very long time I wished to do a book cover, it was something I liked to label as a 'think to do in life', I'm sure most of you have a that kind of list, real or imaginary, it's nice to guide your life after something and it's even nicer when you 'reach' those dreams.
It was recently that thanks to a friend I can joyfully put a check sign in front of my 'do a book-cover' 'thing to do in life'.
Thank you Bianca Dobrescu, even though it was a small project we are discussing a bigger and better one for the near future!

And it's the distance between right and wrong that keeps me from doing good for I am so close to bad.

Sitting in a crowd will never make you special; at least not as special as you could be by sitting in front of it.

In life you must always know when to start, when to stop and...well, when to begin again. :)

witty sayings

i was thinking the other days why aren't i able to keep this blog up to date and...well, best thing i could come up with was that i'm too lazy to write long nice paragraphs about small nothings or important nothings; nevertheless i've decided to post witty quotes i come up with during the day cause that was always a cute thing to do ^^

abstractizare

In cazul fericit in care cineva chiar imi citeste blogul. Tu ce vezi aici(stiu ca poti mai mult de 'un ochi') :D
hai, chiar vreau sa va stiu parerile!
also, ce credeti ca e?

Experiment

De mult am zis ca le scanez sa le pun pe net si-am tot uitat de ele(multumesc Dragos ca m-ai batut la cap sa caut poze.lol)
Povestea acestora doua suna cam asa, acum aproximativ 4 ani cand inca ma jucam cu un Fuji A610 le-am fotografiat, mi-am luat niste hartie foto si le-am printat acasa; nu mi s-au parut cine stie ce, wow, etc asa ca am decis sa le aplic un efect natural, therefor au stat aproximativ 2 ani pe terasa la soare/frig/caldura/etc. acum un an le-am luat si le-am pus (bine) in fundul unui raft si-acum le-am gasit. So here they are:)

Friendly pressure

Cuvinte nespuse

As vrea sa-mi pot evapora sufletul in tine la fel ca apa care atinge temperaturi inalte cand sentimentele din ea fierb prea tare.

Vreau dimineti lenese de vara in care sa ne intalnim ca doi straini ce au plecat sa caute ceva si din intamplare isi gasesc sufletul uitat cine stie pe unde de cine stie cand.

Nu ma cunosti, nu te cunosc si nici nu vreau; vreau sa traiesc in tine o luna, poate doua si-apoi sa plec. Peste ani o sa ne intalnim din nou ca doi straini ce suntem si nu o sa avem resentimente, o sa stim prea bine ce e intre noi pentru ca asta am fost mereu, doi straini fara sentimente complicate, dorinte cu care sa nu ne fie frica sa ne-ascundem unul de altul.

Ai sa vii pe strada sa ma prinzi de mana si sa mergem inainte unul langa altul pentru ca ne cunoastem, tu stapanesti ceea ce mie imi este strain si-asta mi-e mai mult decat de ajuns.

Mi-e dor si doare
Mi-e dor de mare...

Hopes.

Hopes are the things that keep our quests on going, they give us power and spread away the clouds of sadness on gloomy days.
I was never able to set high hopes by myself, always needed someone to stand for them with me which often made me feel weak. Until one day when I realized...I am only human!


Extras from a project for a book. I haven't been writing for awhile now and got a bit rusty so do call this a warm up.

Eu tot am sa plec candva, asa mi-e felul.

joci?

ceva de reinceput

Acum cateva zile m-a intrebat Emi de ce nu mai scriu/postez pe blog, sincer nu stiu, presupun ca mi s-a facut lene la un moment dat si apoi am uitat cu totul de el.
Am sters toate postarile pentru ca majoritatea erau aiurea, o iau de la capat si incerc sa fiu mai consecventa.

Initial am spus ca pe blogul asta postez fotografii si pe un altul diverse dar am ajuns sa nu mai updatez niciunul deci from now on unul si bun.

Ninge.
