It’s a New Day, It’s a New Start…
Posted on | January 2, 2010 | 3 Comments
…a new year has come and I finally found a bit of time to write n this blog. DOn’t ask what’s been happening since november 13th…let’s just say I’ve had a TON of things to do. Exams after exams, Christmas preparations, the Christmas tree, job hunting, cooking, cleaning, studying…and I can go on and on and on. Maybe 2009 wasn’t my best year. I doubt that there are many people who can say it was their best year. Economic downfall all around the world brought with itself other kinds of falls for everyone. And if you mix that with government crisis and very, very narrow minded people in charge, you get Romania.
But that is not my point .As you may have heard, I’ve moved on, 2000 kms to the west. Is it good, is it bad? Let’s say it’s interesting. Switzerland is the land where you can find I guess 200 types of cheese, just as many of chocolate and where people who check for your traveling pass in the bus are polite and nice. It is also the country where they value Swiss citizenship immensely, although at the same time they have an enormous amount of foreigners. I’d say it’s a love-hat relationship. But so far I like it.
I like the small city I live in, the small shops that are nothing like the hypermarkets back home, the fact that if I miss the ‘big city feel’ I can hop in the car and be in Geneva or Zurich in less than 2 hours…I do not like it though that most of their movies are translated, even in cinemas. I am not impressed.
Plans for 2010? I’ve taken up a bit of knitting, I want to improve my French and (reluctantly) start learning German. I want to move more (and, with my new Wii Fit, I think I just might) and laugh more. I want to care less about others’ opinions and go crazy more often. Let go. I want to travel as much as possible (I have miles to gather now, too!) and blog more. It’s sunny outside. I think this will be a good year.
So, I am sorry all for this long pause, but I’m determined to make it up to you. Right now I am on vacation and I’ll feel more creative I hope.
I hope Santa was nice to all of you and that 2010 treats us all better.
Happy New Year Everyone!

Big hugs!
