Not recommended for judgemental people.

until recently my impression of london was that it is simply amazing....but as i start to come back to earth and into the real life i realize that it doesn't matter where you are, people are the same...people are still mean and do inexplicable things with no reason. i am weird because i have high expectations of others and i always end up being let down. nothing is as it seems and any problem does not have a reasonable explanation....i've met some great people but i've also met some people i simply do not like...their character, their way of being, their judgemental character....london, paris, new york or bucharest, people will always judge you.This is not a post about judgement because if i open the subject to debate it's never going to end.This is simply a post in which i state my personal opinion towards judgemental people: i hate you... i pitty you because you live in such a narrow minded world that you don't even know what's going on around you.A piece of advice: come back to your senses cause you're not going to get anywhere in this world by being this way and if i ever see another one of you i swear to god i'm going to spit you in the face.Actually i am not, because that would mean i am judging you too and i am not, but still, get a life!! What are you doing here in this multicultural environment if you're just going to judge everyone else? you could have done that from home, on the couch in front of the computer....you're sad and i honestly feel sorry for you.Blame me, sue me, curse me, judge me i don't care, because i know i have the world at my feet and you don't.Thanks for listening though...and good night:))

End of toolbox

Today is the end of toolbox..finally...Monday is the real first day of school for me because toolbox was not so demanding except for the fact that courses last 3 hours instead of the 1 hour &20 min courses I was used to.2 weeks have gone by so fast i didn't even realize it with all the househunting and classes and then moving and decorating the place. When i started this blog I promised myself that i would write everyday in order to record this amazing adventure but of course i didn't have the time and now i don't have internet at home until the 19th and i am trying to make the most of the time at school and the mgb on my phone..so friends be patient cause you will get bored of me when i do get internet:) Househunting was horrible i don't recommend to anyone to move here if you don't have a place to crash until you find something..but we finally did:) a nice house with a large garden and huge lounge in a nice area that i will post pictures of when i have the proper tools to do that:))) Until now i can honestly say that i've seen much more of London than any tourist can thanks to the househunting adventure and i am already hating the tourist areas and i much rather go shopping or clubbing in other parts of London. Sometimes after classes i just walk around in any direction for a few hours to discover more and more every day and just grasp every piece of this city. Of course most times i don't know where i am and i still need to use google maps that usually gives me the wrong directions and i end up getting home late at night:) What more can i say for now? Life is great in London once you settle in, find a place, open a bank account, etc..( awfull) . The next step is hosting a housewarming party tommorow before school starts because from Monday we are all turning into the biggest geeks and nerds:)) I don't miss Ro at all but i do miss my fam& my fab friends!!!

The first days...

and here we are...in the middle of the world, among all nationalities and races, eating every kind of food possible and living the dream.

As i was wondering around and some guy heard me speaking Romanian and asked me for directions..in London:)) And i am so proud to announce that i was able to help him in my first day here!!!

Also i experienced my first true London rain ..of course without an umbrella or a raincoat and it was great. I stayed in the street for 15 minutes just enjoying it. The sneezing and throat ache that came afterwards were totally worth it.

Everyone is different but somehow they all seem to belong here..no one cares about outfits, makeup or the weather:))) i've heard possibly every language spoken on the street and i love it!!!

Finding a place is awful,,,it's like applying for a job...you need bank statements, a UK guarantor or 6 months in advance, references from previous landlords, etc. it's an entire screening process... Also, most of them don't want students only professionals..we've been looking for 5 days and we are absolutely exhausted but hopefully tommorow we will receive the positive answer from one of the 2 places we made an offer on and by thursday we will be moved in already:) wish us luck!!!!

First step: packing for London

It's the start of a new adventure...the beginning of a new beginning...2 more days in Romania filled with packing and cleaning up. It's so hard to pack your life in a suitcase that needs to be under 32 kg. Only my dreams and hopes weigh more than that....I threw away so many memories, so many things that i collected over the years..it's hard to let go. I have no regret about leaving because there is nothing holding me back. There is no place for me here and i simply did not fit in...because i belong to the world:) Seriously, i feel as though i could just drift away into the world and never look back...
My suitcases are heavy and i feel i packed almost nothing...but as i start to wonder maybe i don't even need all that...these are only material things, things we could live without. In the end i only need my heart and my mind wrapped with my hopes and dreams. Now back to packing:)
