Days of Eni's life

I finally feel rested. EFY was amazing! But I have to admit that I am not 18 anymore... it got to me! So I needed some time to readjust to my walk-work-walk schedule ;) I don't want people to think that I am made of stone or a robot - which ideas shouldn't be excluded ;) EFY meant a lot to me. It was a new experience, challenging and uplifting. First, I have to say that I had the best girls in my group. I was humbled by the love they showed me even from the first moment they got there. now you have to understand that I was horrified by the fact that my Hungarian is good except for the gospel, where I am still learning. But my girls didn't care how much a stuttered, they understood me. From this I learnt first that one can be blessed with charity towards others instantly. I never forgot I could come to love people in a very short time. I loved the girls (Panka, Fanni, Henni, Petra, Berta, Laura and Zsofi) from the start. I felt in a way like I was back on my mission, wh...

I want to start by sharing a picture, a campaign poster, which represents all the politicians here in Romania at this time: I hate doing politics, but this picture represents all that I think of the politicians here: hiding behind smiles, pretending to make it all about people when it's all about themselves, empty promises with no real and steady ground... And he is so bold to come out with a mask to ask for us to vote for him! What this picture makes me think of is all those movie scenes with bank robbers with guns, threatening people and stealing all the money... And also of... "WHY SO SERIOUS?" ... The question is: who will I vote for this Sunday? This guy represent all of the candidates, so I decided to vote with every single one of them ... they all get my vote, and in a very funny way, none of them gets it :D This is my way of protesting against their empty , fake promises.

   I looked over my New Year's goals, and tried to figure out where I stand on the way to achieving them. I have to say: I am not close to them, I got past them.    I set some goals, but then I made up my mind: be bold and say yes to everything ... well, choose wisely, but I decided to get out of my comfort zone more often. And that is how I got to be a counselor at EFY... for the Hungarian group.    We had our meeting as counselors last weekend. After two hours, I started wondering what I was doing there - everything in German, translated into Hungarian, and then my brain worked it into Romanian... when possible :)) By Saturday afternoon, my brain was a wreck! Am I out of my comfort zone? Yes! I don't speak German, I need to work on my Hungarian, preparing to work with youth... at least that will be fun :D    It is starting to sound like me complaining... well, just so you know, I am very excited about EFY, and I can't wait for it to start! I...
