My degree project

I made a 3D world for my degree exam. I have no idea if the teachers will like it, or approve of it. I enjoyed making it, and from time to time, I love to play with it. It comes in three languages (Romanian, English, and Hungarian). I'm not good at the whole "moving around" because I don't play computer games, so the video looks like a two year old walking around, bumping into things. Also, because I was running the recording software, it doesn't look like it works smoothly, but in reality it does. The music doesn't come with my program, but I did have some sounds - dolphins, ocean waves, birds. I added the music to the video so it would be more entertaining. I hope you'll have the patience to watch the 6 minute movie, and actually that you'll enjoy it. Leave comments and suggestions, ok? Thank you :D

Pensive mood...

Tonight I have been in a very different mood than the rest of the nights that I had to spend at work. Usually, I'd get frustrated with my coworker, I'd be grumpy, and wear a fake smile on my face. Tonight, there's something different about me. Maybe because of my two braids?...or the Donkey tag I have to wear over my name tag (Donkey, My love :D)...But I think it is because I've been back on a Book of Mormon reading schedule... I hope so, because I want to be this smiling girl all of the time! Being more calm and happier wasn't the only change in tonight's mood, but also some crazy ideas that came to my mind. Here's one that distracted me for a second, and stuck with me. Introductory story: my mom called me to tell me that she was coming to Arad on Sunday to be here with me for my degree exam. I love her so much, and  I am so happy that she thought of it! Unfortunately, I will have to work Sunday night and Monday night. She decided to come and spend the ni

Anger management

I've had some anger issues lately, towards some of my coworkers. I don't know why, but things that had been bothering me piled up, and yesterday morning it all came rushing out. I didn't say a lot, but my face showed it. I managed to keep it under control, not to say anything that I would end up regretting afterwards. Problems are all part of life. We each get our share of them. We can't always choose the people we end up working with, or even what to work. But I learned that we can choose the way we react. I think I wrote about this a while ago... maybe even less than a month ago. I'm sorry that I bore you with the same ideas in other words. I received a challenge from the missionaries: to read the entire Book Of Mormon in three months, and to mark in it 4 different things in 4 different colors: 1. Christ's names 2. Christ's attributes 3. Christ's words (exact quotes) 4. Gospel doctrines and principles. The Elders gave me a new Book in Romanian (

God knows

God knows what we can or cannot do, what our talents are, what are some of our weaknesses, but more important, our strengths. for me it's a pretty scary thought, because I don't know myself all that well. I know myself only from the experiences I have had, I always think I know what my limits are , but usually I am wrong. I had an experience to remind me that there are things I can do, even if i think I can't. I guess God knows. It happened again at Marilena's baptism. There weren't a lot of people there....10 or so. But everyone was happy, and excited about what was about to happen. I was trying to help Marilena feel more at ease, and enjoy the event. It was a big step for her after all. As we were getting ready to begin, I saw the branch president come towards me.  thought he was going to make sure I had prepared a short talk about the gift of the Holy Ghost, so no stress for me, right? Wrong!!! Guess what? He was actually going to ask me to play the piano! I was

I haven't written anything in a long time. Partly, because I have been very busy with working 50 hours a week, and taking a lot of tests. But I am done with finals! I passed, and survived the calvary. what was I thinking when I decided not to attend classes? I have to admit that the time spent in Orem was well worth the effort. These past couple of weeks, I have been very stressed, and I have become very frustrated with everything:work, school, personal life... nothing was peaceful, and I couldn't find my peace and joy. So I started eating more chocolate, but that didn't help me(except my love handles)... then I started watching movies, but very soon I got bored...   I started spending more and more time on facebook, which wasn't all that fun after a while. Pretty soon, I was beating myself up over any little thing that was out of my control. When had I become that angry, frustrated, unhappy person? Where was the happy Eni I used to be? Yesterday I cleaned my room.
