building up tables

This is what we did yesterday night together with Ela, Cristi and Beldi in our new MC office. Since we are moving and budget allocating for this is 0 we try to make the most out of the resources we have. We used the pieces of wood from a book shelf drawer to build up 3 new tables. I believe we spent close to 4 hours working on this home-made project. I can tell you it is not easy to build up furniture but it can be realy great if you do it with the right people.
Having the satisfaction of a job well done we left the soon to be office at around 12 and I kept thinking about to things:

1. There is no substitute for work regardless and no thing such as a free ride
2. If I ever want a cheap and awsome team-building we just have to sit together and "build our own tables"

Hmm...this could be an ideea for furniture artisans for a second line of business;)

same new blog


One of the commitements I took this week-end was to keep this blog alive and well fed:) for me. To be a constant reminder that sometimes looking into the mirror is all it takes to get things going and to share some of my thoughts with those who are interested in listening to stories about the adventure I want to call "My life"...

a million dollars week-end

Or at least this is how I feel it was after coming back from the first week-end I took for myself in almost 2 years. Living for AIESEC is an amaizing experience and very rewarding but it's not going to last for ever, while living with myself may take a while. In the last 2 days in Sinaia I got the chance to better understand myself and who I am, I got to see how the dots of my childhood experience are reflected in who I am today. I know the last posts where more about changes and theory about change rather than action. Somehow that's how I felt, I have passed trough a period in my lifetime where I was really great at telling people what and how to do but I forgot to experiment it for mysef.

I want to stop living in fear of what might happen if or what do other people think about that because I really don't want to reach 30 and wonder why I haven't tried certain things or to realize that what people thought about it is not that big of a deal and they don't care that much.

With this it starts and I will let time be the judge if I am able to make it happen how I really want and feel...
