Bucur(ca)esti



Journey


First stop : Bucharest
Incoming : Lisbon 


Overview: 

After two days in the city , I had a mental breakdown. Too crowded for my taste.Everybody's in a rush.Can't find my place.
First trip with the subway : I thought somebody was literally gonna step on my head. Keep calm, do not panic. 






One week around:

Started figuring the city. Got to know the team and meet new peeps. Met random awesome people. Went to lovely bistros.If in Bucharest ,one night you must go to Eden.Had the best coffee in a while (thanks,Origo!) I think I'm starting to like this. Visited alot of places around town, and dang this is diverse. What to do, what to do ? Oh look ! There are so many possibilities.



Two weeks around:

Really bonded with my folks! The kind of bonds that you know will last. You can't explain, but you know it is like that. Succeded in finding homies that resemble my mentality. And also learned few thingies from people that are not like me. I learned to appreciate also time for myself much better than before, enjoying myself at the pool, enjoying a nice view, exploring this at-a-glance frightening, but after you start to click with the city, you'll actually figure you might just enjoy it. 



Third week around (last one)

Woke up in the morning with a random thought:
I would like to live here.
This is not possible at the moment, unfortunately. But it would definetly be the change I need. I really appreciate the artsy part of Bucharest. There are so many events that are happening constantly, you can't imagine ! If ever in doubt , and need to clear your head, friendly advice : please go to the theatre.  At least try it,once. See how it feels. You'll eventually come around. 
In this period spent here, I could say I made quite few friends.
That I will definetly miss. A lottle. It's like a little, but instead , a lot. 
The time spent around has made me wonder about my preferences, the way I would like to live, the way I would like to develop my path, the people I would like to be surrounded with.

It's amazing that in such a short time my view changed so much, I am actually surprised that this city makes me feel this good. It's much more lively. It has it's minuses. But I guess we all have ours.


Thank you, Bucharest ! 
See you in a while.

Arms open


''Action speaks louder than words, and a smile says, “I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you.''
''Whenever you go out-of-doors, draw the chin in, carry the crown of the head high, and fill the lungs to the utmost; drink in the sunshine; greet your friends with a smile, and put your soul into every handclasp. Do not fear being misunderstood.'' 
Try to greet everybody you meet with open arms. It’s beautiful to remember time spent with great people. And personally, I’ve met few amazing human beings.
The way they acted, the way they spoke, the way we connected. I’ve learned until now that nothing lasts forever. But it’s never too late to be kind, open, warm-hearted, and to listen to your mates. Because that’s basically with what you remain from people. With memories. And what is more beautiful than remembering a person? Their way of being, their stories, their vibe.
Try harder. Try to connect. Don’t be arrogant. You are not and will never be the center of the universe. You can focus on yourself and do the best that you can do, but after all, once in a while, it’s good to listen.
                Because we have so much to learn from each other.

                It’s basically all we have.

6.6.16 - to me and ya.





Get it on !

Your motivation dear,

   You can do much more than you've ever thought.

   Why be afraid to speak up your mind ? Think, yes, before you do.

   But stop being afraid. Afraid to dissapoint, to disturb, to enjoy.

   We do not have the same flow of ideas. Neither you, nor me.

We exchange perspectives.Open minds.
   You may like chocolate , but I'm a vanilla person, and that's just fine. I do not have anything against it. You can tell me why chocolate is lovely, and maybe I'll learn to enjoy it more.
   Acknowledge yourself, and learn to trust yourself. Because if you don't, then who will ?
Look around. How many mistakes can you actually make by expressing your opinions or feelings? We can't be objective about things that are personal.
   Does the fact that you were wrong matter so much ? How can you actually learn, if not by trying ?      Sometimes it's better to let your ego on a holiday.
So what if you failed today ? It's a brand new day tomorrow. Try again.

And again.

And again.

   Until you get there.

Te scot la un covrig, gagica ?


Acum ca v-am captat atentia, am si eu o intrebare.

 De ce nu mai vorbesc oamenii ?
 - Din seria ,toata lumea e cu tehnologia -
  Ce sa si faci ?
  Adevaru-i ca mie imi place sa ascult. Asa-s eu de firea mea. Stiti cum e , sa fi singur cu tine insuti e pentru cei puternici. Am circumstante atenuante, sunt femeie. Ups. Am folosit un stereotip. Ce urat din partea mea. Sau , oare , facem asta cu totii ?
  Nu, nu , sa terminam cu prostiile, serios, stateam la un birt cu un om drag, si observam cum toti oamenii din jur se binocleaza frate la device-uri !
  Nici in stanga , nici in dreapta, uite pisi ce frumos e afara , au inflorit lalele,dume , chestii , o caprioara,ceva , nimic !
  Treaba-i asta ?

The glorification of busy



“I don’t have time."
      This is an answer most of us heard, atleast once in life. Or much more many times, because time is a 21st century issue. But I’m not talking about time for business affairs. I’m talking about the time we are investing for our own hearts.
       It’s slightly disappointing to hear this reply as an excuse. But in time I’ve learned that us humans, we are best at excuses. But then, this thing will somehow backfire, if you keep hearing it over and over again, it will backfire on your self-confidence.
"I’m sure (s)he’s too busy to hear me out."
      Plot twist. This backfires even harder.
      Why would you think that ?
      Is this affecting your perception of yourself ? Does it make you feel slightly worthless ?
"Honey, do not try to fit in."
      You're basically in control of your limits.

Nimicuri

Buna,


   A trecut ceva vreme. Ce ai invatat de atunci ?

------------------------------------------------------------

   Am invatat ca oamenii sunt liberi. Liberi sa faca ce vrea sufletul lor. Si daca cineva simte nevoia sa interactioneze cu tine, o va face. Si ce e cu atatea prejudecati ?
   Daca vrei sa te manifesti. Nebuneste. Fa-o cum o faci. Fa-o fara sa te gandesti foarte mult. Daca simti ca vrei sa faci asta, fa-o. Pentru binele tau.

-------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------

   Suntem putin complicati.Avem nevoie de spatiul nostru.
   Si e perfect normal.

-------------------------------------------------------------

   Dar te rog eu frumos. Nu incerca sa te ascunzi.
   Asta e frumos la noi, oamenii. Amalgamul de sentimente. Si e amuzant, pentru ca habar n-ai ce sa faci. Nu e ca si cum e ceva ce poti sa controlezi
--------------------------------------------------------------

   Si te rog, in fiecare zi, aminteste-ti ca tu, tu, cumva, esti important.
---------------------------------------------------------------

   O seara frumoasa.

First [2016]

   




Ar trebui sa ma gandesc la ce-am facut gresit anterior.Dar nimic nu e defapt gresit. Si stii de ce ? Pentru ca ne schimbam constant.And that's beautiful.
   Ce as vrea ? Sa pot sa am incredere. And damn that's a challenge.
    Am inchis cateva usi, dar asta am simtit ca e ceea ce trebuie sa fac la momentul respectiv.
    2015 a fost o avalansa de sentimente,uneori,contradictorii. Dar asa sunt eu.
  Vreau sa vad mai multe locuri ! Si sa cunosc oameni ! Oamenii, asa de dificili cum suntem uneori, suntem defapt atat de frumosi. Si am cunoscut atatia oameni frumosi and damn I'm so happy for that and I thank you. 
  Si cumva, simt ca am lasat o mica parte din mine in sufletul oamenilor pe care i-am cunoscut (sper sa fie de bine)
  [Am incheiat anul putin gol] Nu, nu e chiar asa. Sau?
  Dificili.
  Imi pare rau.


  Imi pare rau pentru lucrurile pe care trebuia sa le fi zis la momentul respectiv. Dar nu am puterea sa dau timpul inapoi. [Din pacate, poate , intr-o zi]



  For you : 

        You are beautiful. And you got so much love to give. Don't ever let anyone tell you something else.Don't believe it if it happens.You deserve best.

Indiferent de cine, ce, cum, un sentiment va ramane. Nu e nimic mai frumos decat -a darui timp-. Respira, bucura-te. Nu o sa-l mai primesti inapoi. But that's the beauty of it. Azi, maine, poimaine. Trec. Cu ce ramai? Cu toate ca probabil am dezamagit si eu la randul meu, ce vreau, e sa-ti aduci aminte vibe-ul fain, de-odata. Si sa nu-l uiti vreoeata. Sau uita-l, dar nu uita de unde a venit. Niciodata.
