Nappy New Year!

Happy New Year!
Now we're in 2009! That's great! 2008 wasn't a good year for me anyway. I had big plans, and they were all scrubbed. I'm happy that two friends of mine, together with their parents, moved to the USA. I'm happy for them, although I miss them at the same time, and I guess the New Year's Eve wouldn't have sucked so badly if they were here. I'm keeping in touch with them on the Internet, so that's OK!
I've learned however, better than before, that you can't trust people too much, least you wanna' be disappointed.
I've also learned, to the same extent that: Once you gotta' do it right, you gotta' do it yourself. I like that line! It's from Blade 2, and it belongs to Ron Pearlman's character,... Except in the actual movie, it comes with: "Like my daddy said... right before he killed my mom..." before it. That doesn't make the DIY line not true though.
And there's the point: Why would you have others do, something that you don't wanna' do, for you? Especially since it's in your interest, not theirs.
I've also learned that the people who can't take advice, always insist on giving it, and that people who complain about EVERYthing, don't wanna' see you complain about ANYthing.
I've learned that things such as alcohol, tobacco, food, love, ...whatever, are not necessarily bad. It's the addiction and the excess that are bad.
I've learned that you shouldn't waste your time trying to understand people who can't understand themselves, 'cause you might forget about yourself and your needs.
Care only about the things that matter and have a realistic and practical use, not the ones that don't. After all, the cherry on top of the cake, counts for nothing without the cake underneath it( conceptually speaking).
I guess I'll be running away from the people who think of the cherry as the main thing, there's no reasoning with them. The one thing I hate more than seeing the Don Quixote fighting with the windmills scene happening in modern society, is it happening to me.
OK, so I've learned quite a few things from year 2008, but I'm happy about one thing: IT'S ALL OVER!
I'll face the new year with a new attitude!
I wish you all a Happy New Year, happiness, health, and joy!

Masacrul din Christchurch - un produs pe termen lung al stângii politice

Am un mare respect pentru cultura şi civilizaţia islamică. Am cunoscut musulmani civilizaţi, curaţi şi fiabili, mai mult decât fericiţi să-ţi explice calm şi civilizat ce e prin cultura şi civilizaţia lor dacă aveai orice întrebare sau curiozitate. Îmi amintesc când în primul an de masterat, am susţinut referate pe tema drepturilor omului. Am avut un coleg musulman, pe nume Hadi. Hadi venea dintr-o familie de diplomaţi din Afganistan. Ştia dari (dialectul persan care se vorbeşte în Afganistan), arabă, rusă, germană, engleză şi română. E de la sine înţeles că dacă acel curs avea legătură cu drepturile omului, Hadi trebuia să se ocupe de un referat despre drepturile femeii în lumea islamică. S-a oferit şi a fost mai mult decât fericit. Îmi amintesc cum profesoara şi unele din fostele mele colege încercau să găsească religiei islamice nod în papură şi să îl provoace pe Hadi, care amuzat şi cu un calm mai mare decât am avut eu vreodată când lui, le explica frumos şi politic...

Long time, no post.

There was little or no time for blogging since the previous post, so no article was written. I did a lot. I finished college, and I got my Bachelor's degree. I learned how important it is to do things at the right time and not stall them. I just didn't feel like working on my Batchelor work, so I had to finalise it in the last three weeks before I checked it in. I wrongly estimated the quantity and quality of information that I had to obtain in order to write about Kosovo's Independence, and the conflicts between Serbs and Albanians, as it being too small. When I effectively started writing on the work, I found out just how much information I had, and that there was no way I'd fit all of that in about 100 pages and in such a short time. In the few days before I finished it, I actually deleted some stuff, because it would have been too big. I had to work on it the very day before I checked it in, then through the night and into the morning, when I felt half asleep and ha...

Îmi vreau ţiganii înapoi...

Vineri, am făcut din nou o escapadă în afara oraşului cu mândra... De data asta, am hotarât să mergem undeva mai aproape de casă. Călimăneşti să fie! Ajunşi la pensiune, totul curat pe exterior şi pe hol, toate bune şi frumoase: - Uite camera... - Foarte frumos, mulţumim! Avem şi noi nişte mâncare, şi vrem s-o băgăm în frigider. Frigider aveţi? - Da, sigur, în bucătărie. - Hai în bucătărie. Pas cu pas, vorba lui Iohannis, cu Pas cu pas, vorba lui Iohannis din nou, căci a scos două cărţi, cu numele "Pas cu pas", şi iată-ne în bucătărie. - Nu ştiu dacă mai e loc în frigider... şi-mi deschide frigiderul. Frigiderul era plin. Apoi, cobor eu capul, când domnişoara deschide frigiderul şi ne uităm unde să băgăm merindele noastre, iar ea-mi spune cu o jumătate de voce: - Vedeţi că vecinii din seara aceasta sunt o familie deee ... de ţigani... - Nu-i nicio problemă... - Dar sunt foarte de treabă... Stau doar în seara aceasta şi vor să facă un grătar... - E ok. ...
