Blogs

The other day I discovered some interesting blogs I would like to follow. Usually I just follow friends' blogs, because I am interested in their life. Due to my thesis topic I bumped into many different kinds of blogs, and I think there are some that worthy to mention. (By the way in my profile everybody can check the list of blogs I follow.)
When I was in Schwenningen a nice friend of mine show me an interesting blog which is about love mostly in pictures and videos(short movies). The Le Love blog was 'love at first sight', so I started to check the new posts every day. And of course, as a real fan I had a look at all the previous posts on this blog.
Another blog which makes me smile and my days happier is the 1000 awesome things. This blog names one reason daily that can be good in people's life.
To mention some of these reasons that really caught my attention:

#762 The moment at a restaurant after you see your food coming from the kitchen and before it lands on your table
#766 Finding the last item in your size in the store.
#771 Waking up your alarm clock and realizing you've got lots of sleep time left.
#782 Mixing cookie butter with your bare hands.
#785 Falling asleep in the backseat of a car late at night on the drive home.
#804 Gym pain.
#805 The smell of crayons. (Okay, I would say the smell of the pens' ink or the pencils :)) Or as well we shouldn't forget about the smell of many kinds of books, like old ones :) )
#867 Snow falling on Christmas eve (For a real Xmas fan :) ) and related to this #868 Snow stepping



So I think this blog is really AWESOME, and makes me think about new reasons for being happy and smile just on an ordinary day...
Good luck for finding these reasons!And of course I am interested in my readers' reasons for happiness!!

Time to think

It's been a long time, not writing a new post here. Lot of things happened, mostly really good ones and things that made me think about my recent situation, the close future and past which is also part of my life. First of all, I spent 3 wonderful days with my Hungarian friends in Pécs, I would say in the second nicest city after Budapest in Hungary. We planned this weekend for a long time, and we had a similar one I think more than a year ago. But finally we did it, and we also took part in the annual university student festival there, which was also great, and a new experience at least for me. I am not a big party monster, especially for many days, but we had fun, and I looked for the moments I could enjoy. But I think we did all the things we planned or me planned, like going to hiking to the near hill or cooking together, or just walking around the city. That time I hadn't had the feeling of 'hanging out with friends who know me for many years, and they like me how I am' for a while, so it was nice to have it there again.
Oh I forgot to mention, but it is important obviously, finally I handed in my thesis. My opponents' feedbacks were positive, so it made me happy. Now I am waiting for their final assessment, and having my final exams by the end of June.
After I finished my thesis, I started to enjoy my freedom here, so that was the reason for my travelling first with Hungarian friends to Pécs. But then we went to the countryside for another weekend with family and Levi. We spent 2 peaceful days in a nice weekend house in a really small village with 300 inhabitants. We looked around the surroundings, we visited even smaller villages and places as well. This weekend helped me to recognize the importance of my relationship...we really needed it to spend a little bit more time together, focusing on each other. This happened for the first time after I got home from Germany.
After this countryside weekend I decided to visit some 'new friends' in Germany, which meant that I travelled back to Schwenningen. First, my mom was worrying about me being incapable to say goodbye my life there or my friends there. Partly I guess, she's right, it is really difficult for me to say goodbye to someone who was and is really important in my life, because we spent quite much time together. But now I see things different. This 5 days helped me to 'calm down' or to accept what happened and to move on a little bit. This doesn't necessarily mean that now I can forget the last 6 months, just simply I feel so much better, I am a little bit more convinced about my decisions I made there and after. 5 days there was amazing, and wonderful, with so many surprises and moments I will never forget, but I also realised that my future life is in Budapest. :)
And now I am here with so many little and bigger plans about my life, I would like to fulfil...I am almost done with my college and studies for a while, looking for a job for months, and when I will get one, it will totally change my life and will give new perspectives to it. When I started to study in college I had so many ideas about my life and future, and with recalling them I realise again that things don't happen always in that way the people plan. And I find this so amazing!The life is full of surprises and secrets, but I also think people cannot live without plans, I need to have dreams and ideas what to do with my life, and actually we will see what is waiting for me in 'the real life'.
