Petite Aimée: Season of changes.

E o singura intrebare care imi trece prin cap acum: " De unde sa incep?!". Sincer, de 2 saptamani incerc sa scriu ceva, dar nu stiu cum..mi se pare ca mai am nevoie de timp, ca sa mi deslusesc gandurile si sentimentele.

Acum, stau cu biletul de avion in mana, zambesc si imi spun "Trebuie sa scrii.". 8 Sept e data de pe el. O luna. Haha, a trecut o luna de cand am ajuns in Anglia. O luna de cand incerc sa ma obisnuiesc cu schimbarile din viata mea.

There’s just a single question that crosses my mind at this moment: “ Where do I begin from?”. Honestly, I’ve been trying to write something for the blog for 2 weeks, but I still feel like I need more time to sort out my thoughts and feelings. I’m holding my airplane ticket and just smile as I keep telling myself“ You have to write something.” 8 Sept is the date on it. 1 month. Haha, it’s been a month since I arrived in England. 1 month since I’ve been trying to get used to my life’s changes.

Locuiesc in Newcastle de 3 saptamani si imi place la nebunie. Cand am ajuns aici, era 5 dimineata, n-am reusit sa vad prea multe, desi m-am plimbat pe strazi de dimineata pana seara. Eram obosita si vroiam sa-mi gasesc o casa unde sa ma simt "acasa"...ceea ce parea mai mult decat dificil. Acum, cand ma plimb pe stradutele pline de energie, cand vad oameni grabiti, care se indreapta spre locurile care ii asteapta, ma simt

inspirata si multumita.

I’ve been living in Newcastle for 3 weeks and I absolutely love it. When I first got here, it was around 5 am so I wasn’t able to see much, although I walked the streets until the evening. I was so tired and the only thing I wanted to do was to find a place to live that felt like “home” which seemed to be quite impossible. These days, when I walk on the streets full of energy, when I see all these people rushing towards places that await them I feel inspired and content.

Pentru prima oara, in cei multi ani in care am avut parte de invatamant, merg la scoala cu placere si plina de entuziasm. Abia astept urmatorul proiect, urmatorul seminar, urmatoarea provocare. In unele zile, ma simt atat de recunoscatoare, incat incep sa compar diverse aspecte din viata mea, cu cele din filme. Incepand de la colegii mei, profesoarele mele, vanzatoarea de supermarket, proprietarul casei in care locuiesc, toti oamenii astia, ma uimesc.

For the first time in my whole experience as a student, I go to school satisfied and full of enthusiasm. I cannot wait for the next project, the next lecture or the next challenge. In the past days, I felt so grateful, that I actually started to compare some aspects of my life to some from the movies. My classmates, my tutors, the seller from the supermarket, my landlord, all these people amaze me.

Imi e putin dor de prietenii mei, familia mea, pentru ca oricat am incerca sa ne mintim, cercul social al fiecaruia dintre noi...se bazeaza doar pe cativa oameni care grozavi sau nu in ochii altora, stiu ei, in modul lor sa ne umple inima de bucurie si sa ne faca universul mai frumos. Oamenii aia care conteaza pentru mine..nu sunt aici, insa in fiecare seara, sunt dispusi sa impartaseasca o vorba buna cu mine si asta e magnific.

I must admit that I miss my friends and my family because, no matter how much we try to deny it, our social circle is based on just a few people who might not seem great in others opinion, but they have their own unique way of filling our heart with joy making our universe more beautiful. Those people that matter the most to me…aren’t here, but every evening, they are willing to share a good word with me and that’s truly magnificent.

Partea frumoasa atunci cand iti incepi viata intr-un alt oras, e ca esti un om nou in el si totul este nou pentru tine. Asa ca in fiecare zi, descopar ceva care sa-mi surada...fie ca e un loc fain, niste prajiturele care te fac sa te intrebi daca raiul poate fi mai minunat, o inghetata delicioasa sau un om gata sa-ti dezvaluie povestea lui.

The lovely part when you start your life over in another city, is that you can be a new person and everything seems new to you. Hence, every day, I discover something that I like, some new cookies that make you wonder if heaven can be even better, a delicious ice-cream or maybe a person who wishes to reveal you his story.

Am primit o floarea-soarelui de la cel pe care il iubesc, am creat o rochie in doua zile, am inceput sa gatesc, mi-am decorat noua mea camera, am mancat taitei chinezesti, mi-am facut cativa prieteni noi, am pozat pentru o expozitie, am descoperit cel mai bun ceai de iasomie, am experimentat viata de noapte din Newcastle(o adevarata jungla urbana), am scos din ascunzatoare niste magazine vintage, m-am lasat impresionata de biblioteca de la universitate, am vizitat marea, am facut o gramada de poze simpatice si am zambit muuuuuult.

I got a sun-flower from the man I love, I created a dress in only 2 days, I started to cook, I decorated my new room, I ate chinese noodles, I made some new friends, I was a model for a photoshoot, I discovered the best jasmine tea, I experienced Newcastle’s nightlife( a real urban jungle), I found some hidden vintage stores, I got impressed by the university’s library, I went to the seaside, I took lots of funny pictures and I smiled a loooot.

Acum o sa las imaginile sa vorbeasca, ca de obicei, ele sunt mai sugestive decat cuvintele mele.
