Days of Eni's life

I thought of a nice project to help the hospital in Arad, but I found some difficulties in implementing it : I need to be part of an organization, and get an approval from the city hall. Other than that, here it is: send me suggestions, opinions, and you are more than welcome to help! Drop Of Life With 5 lei (1.5$) you can’t go to the movies, but you can save a life Be the change the world needs Purpose: Raising money to help buy equipment for the Intensive Care Unit at the City Hospital in Arad. After talking to dr. Teodora Olariu, we saw that the critical patients need the monitoring and life support devices: -           Breathing machines -           Defibrillators -           Monitoring device -           Automatic syringes -        ...

Mi-a venit ideea unei actiuni de caritate. Cu ajutorul sefului meu, am reusit sa demaram , cel putin teoretic, acesta actiune. Stiu ca trebuie sa fie printr-o organizatie - nu stiu nici una ! Si cu aprobarea primariei - pentru care inca nu am aplicat (din cauza primei mici probleme) Pentru idei si o mana de ajutor, scrieti-mi! Aici sunt cateva idei: Pic de viata Cu 5 lei nu poti sa mergi la film, dar poti salva o viata Fii schimbarea de care lumea are nevoie. Scop : Strangere de fonduri spre a ajuta la achizitionarea de aparatura pentru sectia de Terapie Intensiva a Spitalului Municipal Arad. Dupa o discutie cu doamna doctor Teodora Olariu, am ajuns la concluzia ca bolnavii in stare critica au nevoie de aparatura de monitorizare si de suport vital: -           Respiratoare -           Defibrilatoare -           Moni...

I went on a trip to Budapest last weekend. I had around 2000Ft to spend, which is not a big fortune, but enoug to have fun with. After the meetings I attended, I got to the trainstation half an hour early. I still had 300Ft left in my pocket... I didn't know what to buy - most things were over 500Ft. What coud I buy? Lo and behold! An used book stand! Guess what was the book lying on top of the pile? Programming in VRML v.2!!! Ok, it was in Hungarian, but programming is the same in any language! I spent most of the trainride back looking over the book, smiling, remembering the good old days I spent in college designing, and creating 3D stuff. It also reminded me of the hours spent in the BYU library... 100Ft very well spent!

I created a Mormon.org profile. It talks a bit about my faith, so here is the link(click on the picture):

Yes, we had our Seminary and Institute convention! It was a blast! I have to admit though that I expected it to be a total disaster. I wasn't good at planning the little details, and having to conduct the fireside was nerve wrecking. I stressed all the girls on the train: "I don't have all the music picked!" , "Will someone be there to open the door?", "What will people think?", "I don't speak Hungarian!" (and the list goes on...) and here is what happened: We got to the chapel, and realized 3 things: we didn't have hymnbooks, no assigned pianist and music conductor... So  I went running down the streets downtown Oradea to find a place at 6 pm where I could make copies of the hymns. Then, as the youth came, I just "attacked" them with the question "Do you play the piano?" Luckily, someone did, and she was very nice to accept to play. Then, from Hungary as well, someone volunteered to conduct the music (I LOV...

Because I have a bit of free time every day, I signed up to do the census - it's still about money, don't worry ;) What is required from me for this task is a lot like missionary work: I got my own area, very well delimited and marked on a map.  I have a big goal (talk to 80 families) which I get to break down into daily goals I go from door to door, trying to find people home I get into their houses, some are very reticent about answering my questions, while others share more than I need from them I get to meet new people I get to hear life stories of old people Every evening I have to report numbers (how many of each form I filled out) to my area supervisor   Sometimes I feel weird that I don't have a companion, or that people let me in a lot easier than on my mission. But I have been thinking a lot about my mission experiences, and I realized that during those 18 months I learned many skills that help me now not only in my service in the church, but also wi...

It's interesting how when we talk about changes, we think of "take it one step at a time". It would make it easier, right? I am more of a "radical" changer - well, life makes me do that :D I was so used to working at OMV- even though I was unhappy, stressed, and tired all the time. Then I got called for an interview, and everything changed. It was the first real interview that I had ever gone to. I thought it would be nerve wrecking, and that I would end up making a fool of myself - it went the other way: I went in confident, and I made a good impression. It was an interview for a job at a computer store and service. I do not have a lot of knowledge about it, so here I am now, having a job in a field that I like, pushing my limits by learning new things every day. I had no idea when I started that it would be such a challenge! And oh, how I love it! Changes: fix schedule (8 to 5 job, Mo-Fri), free weekends, no girls (no offence to girls, but I do enjoy the d...
