In København

So I finally have some time to write about what I'm doing lately.
Yes, I'm in Copenhagen since Friday afternoon. After a nice trip by buss and ferry from Luebeck, Germany, which lasted 5 hours, but actually felt like 2, I got to the Copenhagen Central Station. Good thing my buss station was close to it, so that I could take my luggage and go to an exchange office to get some DKK, in order to make a phone call from a public phone. And yes, forgot to tell you, nobody was expecting me then any more, because I arrived 3 hours later than expected (wasn't my fault, the trafiic was bad :)))
10 minutes after calling Michael, the LCP from Copanhagen CBS, we met in front of a McDonald's, and then headed
directly to my appartment.
There I had a great surprise to find out that I don't have a room of myself yet. I'm actually still sleeping in the couch, but hopefully not for long time. Good thing the sofa is long enough, so that I can fit on it.

Another funny thing is the light here, the sun sets much later than 10 pm and rises at 4 am, that's really bad for me, since the landlord of the apartment didn't buy yet any blinds to my room. That's why for the last few days I wasn't sleeping more than 5 hours out of 24. Well, at least I have some more time for that until I start working next Friday.

Danish is a very difficut language for me. So far I can say "hej"="hello", "hej hej"="goodbye", "tak"="thank you", and I'm very proud of myself. I'm not expecting to learn too much in a year, especially because at work I will be speaking in English, but also because here almost every dane speaks excellent English ( - I know it because I always stop people on the street to ask for directions when I get lost). But it would be a pitty to leave from here in a year without knowing at leat the basic things about the language, so I will try to make the best of my stay.

Ready to Go!

Excited about the places I will see, about the language I hope I will learn at least just a bit, but most of all about the people I will meet.
So, what more to say..?

... except for see you in Copenhagen in a few days!

Saying Goodbye

No posting activity lately, the last few days were dedicated to goodbyes.. Well, mostly farewells to those I'm leaving here, once I'll go to Denmark for one year. Anyway, I had happy goodbyes, funny goodbyes, cool goodbyes, formal goodbyes, even cold ones, all types of goodbyes, except for pathetic wheeping goodbyes I was affraid to put up with. And I'm so happy about this!!
Lots of going outs, plans for the future (career, friends, meetings, holydays), dreaming, celebrating..
Thank you Elena for making time to meet me on Friday, I had a wonderful time (or was it Thursday? I don't remember too good, the time went by so fast).
In the weekend I finally met Anca, Corina and Gabi - Gabi, thank you for the pictures :))
Last night was the bye bye party with the AIESEC people from Ploiesti, from which I have received some gifts that will help me remember about them and about Romania :)). We weren't too many, maybe about 10, consisting mainly of the current board members, but it was fun seeing them again, and remembering about my last AIESEC conference with them.

About AIESEC

For about 2 years now I've been part of AIESEC Ploiesti, in Romania. Actually, AIESEC is much wider, just take a look here....

And if you've watched the video above, by now you should know that AIESEC, the world's largest student organization, is the international platform for young people to discover and develop their potential so as to have a positive impact on society.
And yes, through AIESEC you can also live wonderful exchange experiences, like I'm about to in Denmark, where I will soon meet the members of AIESEC Copenhagen Business School!!

Happy :))

Yesterday I had my final exams, which consisted in presenting the VOX project and answering some questions related to computer engineering. Everything went great, so now I can finally call myself a computer engineer! Isn't that great? :D

So, after celebrating this last night with my colleagues, I'm now trying to put myself together and start planning for the trip to Copenhagen, which by-the-way, will be in not less than 18 days. Lots of things to prepare, places to see, and especially people to say goodbye to.

Update

My latest hobby: sleeping.
2 days until I'll become an engineer.
3 weeks until I leave Romania.
And yesssss, in 2 days I'll be presenting my final project!!!
Wish me luck :)
