Happy New Year

2011 is over, and 2012 is ready to become a better year - and that because I want to make it so.  I can't say 2011 was bad, it had its ups and downs.Looking back, I guess it was a pretty good year. Things that happened: - My cousin moved to Arad - having family closer makes a big difference - I traveled more to Hungary - helps me better understand my Hungarian roots - I was part of the planning committee of a 9 country YSA Convention - it sure got me out of my comfort zone, and learnt a lot from it - Participated in a 9 country YSA Convention - the first for me - it was fun to meet many new people, and make new friends - I was shop manager at the gas station, it was not what I expected, and learnt that you cannot change things by yourself, with everyone involved opposing change - I got a new job at a computer store (build, fix, sell computers, computer parts, printers...). I'm in charge of acquisitions, which means I need to learn the technical part, and always know wh...

Service opportunity

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 -        ...

Actiune de caritate...

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...

Remembering college

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):

Another convention...

Image
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...
