Funny Xmas stuff from Krunal
hehe, so funny what Krunal wrote on my facebook wall:
"If one night
A fat man comes
And stuffs you in a bag
... do not freak.
I told Santa
I wanted you for Christmas. (;
Merry X mas and Happy New Year."
So, Merry Xmas and a great New Year everyone!!!!
(as for my american friends, I miss you guys sooooo much!!!)
Can hardly wait to read this one...
Mansarda la Paris cu vedere spre moarte de Matei Visniec sau cum il readucem pe Cioran printre noi
"Orbul cu telescopul: Pe scurt, suntem o asociatie de depresivi, de anxiosi, de nefericiti, de ratacitori fara religie fixa, de atei debili, de apaticimaladivi, de prosti carora le lipseste in mod vital tandretea, de sceptici bornati, de complexati si de handicapati afectiv...Deci, sa uram la multi ani Asociatiei noastre. Domnule Cioran, vreti sa suflati dumneavoastra in lumanari?"
Realizezi ca traiesti in anul 2006 daca... (de la Iulia citire)
1. tastezi numarul PIN, fara sa vrei, la cuptorul cu microunde.
2. de ani de zile nu ai mai jucat solitaire cu carti reale
3. ai o lista cu 15 numere de telefon ca sa iti suni familia formata din 3 persoane
4. trimiti un mail colegului care sta linga tine
5. ai pierdut contactul cu prietenii fiindca nu ai adresele lor de e-mail
6. te intorci dupa o zi lunga de lucru acasa si raspunzi la telefon cu numele firmei
7. formezi 0 la telefon ca sa primesti informatii
8. esti de 4 ani la locul tau de munca, dar pentru 3 firme diferite
10. toate reclamele de la TV arata si o adresa de web
11. intri in panica cind realizezi ca ai plecat de acasa fara mobil si te intorci din drum ca sa-l iei
12. te trezesti de dimineata si deschizi outlook-ul inainte sa bei cafeaua
13. inclini capul, ca sa zimbesti ;-)
14. citesti textul asta si rinjesti
15. mai rau, stii deja ca vei trimite mailul acesta mai departe
16. esti prea ocupat ca sa iti dai seama ca din lista lipseste punctul 9
17. te mai uiti o data pe lista, ca sa vezi daca intr-adevar punctul 9 lipseste
.... si acum rizi....
Apropos:
Un om de stiinta sud-american a descoperit, dupa cercetari indelungate si complicate, ca persoanele care nu sint sexual active isi citesc e-mail-urile cu mina pe mouse.
Acum nu mai are sens sa iei mina de pe mouse, e prea tirziu
Head of the U.N. for 10 years
You all probably know all about it already, but it was today that I got to thinking about the fact that Kofi Annan, who has been the secretary-general of the U.N. for the past decade, is retiring. After his farewell speech in Missouri last week the spirits were highly devided: some say thaat it's a shame such a man is leaving, some are happy to see him gone, considering that he used his last speech to speak his mind, once more, about how wrong the taken approach on the Iraq war was.
I don't know what you think about this, but in my opinion, a man who has done so much for the past 10 years of his life, does not deserve to be mocked and ridiculed as several newspapers/journalists did in the past week. And despite what some say, Kofi Annan WILL be missed @ the U.N.
Newsflash
Yeah, that's right, I already have some news:
1. Yesterday was Iulia's B'day and we went together to get a coffee and a cappuccino. We only spent about 30 minutes together, but it was good, really good...considering that the last time she tried calling me, I hung up :-)
2. Karoly kicked ass AGAIN and his team won the water polo match :-) YAY
3. I have yet to discover how to let some things go and how to take a break from time to time (what do I mean by that? take last night for example - I came home and promised myself I won't turn on my work laptop, I won't even look at it:-) What was the result of my genious plan? I went to bed at 1:30 am after working my ass off...yeah, I turned on the laptop). Get it?
:-)
still somewhat great :-)
First of all I would like to start this post by wishing my friend Iulia a very very happy b'day:-) Enjoy it honey!!
Second of all...actually now that I think about it, there was no second. But since I'm too lazy to scroll down and push the "publish post" button, I'll write some more: on the one hand school's been really crazy, a lot of projects, term papers and classes that seem to never end. On the other hand, work has been surprinsingly fulfilling lately: a lot of new responsibilities, which showed me once again (in case I needed to be convinced, which I didn't) that with responsibility comes a great deal of pressure hanging over you. But thanks to a great colleague at work I have been able up till now to handle the pressure and transform the whole situation to my advantage (so thanks a lot Karoly!). What else? oh, Xmas is coming up and I DID NOT buy ANY presents yet, which totally freaks me out, because I don't want to leave it for the last minute. But as Romanians say "de ce te temi, de aia nu scapi", so I guess I'll take Karoly's advice once more and "let things be and not worry too much about all these little things".
So, if you already bought your presents, then you're really cool . If you're in my situation, then join me in the "let things flow"-groove...
still great
yeah, that's right, life's still great :-) I have been really happy lately, even if I can't really put my finger on the reason why...Fact is that I am more at peace than I ever was. Again, do not ask me why, because I can't tell you. But I guess it has something to do with my friends (with a dear one in particular :-) ).
So I hope y'all are as happy as I am coz it's the best feeling :-)
later
