Going Places!



    This one is from our last trip to my oldest sister, before I left Romania first time. It was in the morning, and we were watching the sun rising. Magic moments.. I cannot keep myself from putting another 2-3 pics from that trip. It was precious. Had a good time and now, looking at these pictures again, I can't help but getting a lil bit wistful.



    I love him here. No more words, what can I say?!..I just love you, Eduard!


   Don't you think we would look good with kids?... Yep, those are three of my sister's kids, the 4th one was just a lil baby back then, and now she's expecting the 5th one. It seems like I have enough nephews and nieces, so for now, no kids for me! (even though, I want one..)


   That's too much information and too many pictures, don't you think?! Got bored?!.. Listen to this:

Happiness, anyone?!...

I tell you, people, I enjoyed that kiss like never. It was right before I got on the plane to come to States. 
(two years ago)
          Happiness is:
- a second spent with you;
- your arms around me when I'm scared;
- your voice in the morning;
- my lips on yours (and yes, that's a special kiss);
- remembering every single second with you, and reliving 'em;
- imagining how our next date will be;
- anticipating your happiness when I prepare a surprise for you;
- all your special smiles you have and share 'em all with me;
- wearing your clothes, even though I just bought them and you haven't even had the chance to try 'em on;
- picking outfits together;
- knowing what you think;
- ...and what you want;
- ...and do it!!!
- falling asleep next to you;
- and waking up in the same spot: next to you;
- when you pull me next to you, in a strong, yet sweet kinda way;
- walking down the street, holding your hand and talking nonsense;
- everything that means you;
- loving you.
        Happiness is feeling your love, sharing it, and walking thru life together.

Old Memories...

<-- That's an old one. It was the first time we ever met. Second day spent together. How clumsy and nervous I was... Still, I loved every second of those 3 days together. Didn't think I'd miss him as much as I did. Didn't think he was going to surprise me, couple of weeks after that... he came to visit me, in a city he'd never been before, and barely knew something about. I was impressed. Looking at this picture I realize how much I miss him now, and how awfully long weekend will be without him. He's leaving to Czech Republic tomorrow morning, with work, and on Saturday and Sunday is in Hungary at some wedding. I'm glad for him, but that selfish part of me, is kind of jealous: weekends used to be our days. Ok, let's put sadness away! On the other hand, because, anyway I won't be talking to him, it's possible to go to New York City this weekend. We'll see how things go. Still, even without NYC on my list, I have tons of work, so I'll barely have time to think about it.
thirty three...

One Down, Thirty Four More To Go!!!

      So, I just got this idea: till I leave, to post each day a pic with me and my wonderful Eddie. This is not the best photo we have, but we have an excuse. We were sad I had to leave to come back to States. It was a cocktail of emotions, not only sadness... I couldn't explain the feeling, I'm not sure I wanna talk about it.
    I've realized how good it feels when you check things you got done from your daily "to do list". So accomplished. Makes me feel important, for some reason. Another thing about long to do lists, I like cause they keep you busy... keep the time goin'. The sad part is, sometimes I'm so focused on what I gotta do, I forget about anything... and it's sad when you realized you forgot you miss your friends. To miss somebody, that's not my best feeling/mood, but not to have time to feel that missing there, well, that hurts me.
     There are 34 more days and I'ma take off... every day around 8:30 pm I start dreaming about that: "In xx days, around this time, I'll be ready to take off.." . And I start wondering, it'll be a sunny day? rain? maybe humidity.. or just a perfect day of August?.. cold? hot?... I'd prefer warm. What outfit am I gonna wear?.. Remember, I posted here some personal thoughts about outfits and stuff. Still, the question I ask myself so many times just pops out in my mind: "what should I wear on the plane?". I need something comfortable, cute, girlie, something that I won't be hot outside and not freeze 11 hours on the plane. Sounds tricky, huh? I'm sure I'll come up with something till then. For now, just eat as much watermelon as you can, be excited about VBS and enjoy the sun!!...

Welcome !!!

    Aniela Denisa Stoia, welcome to the world!! Even though you don't know too many things about this life here, I want to let you know, we are more than happy to welcome you in our family. I promise, from now on, I'll be an example for your little footsteps when you follow me. I am so nervous and excited to meet you, on August 8th. I'm anxious to hold you in my arms, change your diapers and even feed you (when you'll be older)... I can't wait to take pictures with you, and to give your mommy and your daddy a huge hug. For now, you just stay in your daddy's hands... You are precious, my sweet little Aniela... 

Isn't she gorgeous?

















Look at her, I already adore her, and I've never meet her!.. Oh, and yes, I was so happy, I forgot.. My youngest niece was born on June 24th, in Romania. :) As you can see, the baby and her mommy are fine.. and they'll go home this Thursday. 

Welcome To Dreamland!

       "So, who said planning a wedding is stressful?" says the lion-hearted me. Yeah, actually, I enjoy it!!! It's amazing how quickly I forgot the last week, which, mostly, no, partly, was a disaster: lack of sleep, took off a day from work, not to relax, to work even more, than problems everywhere, at work, at home, no exceptions. Still, it wasn't that bad.. Ok, I admit, on Friday things just got crazy, and I was even more crazier. And tonight, I said I was going to bed at 10:00 - 10:30. Guess what?! It's 12:21 and I'm typing this small post... cause I enjoy my life right now, with everything that is. Good and bad. Happy and sad. Proud and disappointment. Life's a whole, and I don't wanna just pick some things I like, or I think they'd be good for me, and say: "ha, ha, I have the perfect life!" Nope, guys, my life is precious because He gave it to me, and He makes it special with everything He let me experience. My hope and trust is in Him, so why would I go weary? Why stress when I can pray about it? Why frown when you can smile? Why fall when you can rise up with all your pain and thru all the hardness? I'll stop dreaming about "how'd be if I really had enough money to go at the store and actually buy, not check the tag 2 times", and "what if I had another job" and "what if I knew some other people" ... I'll stop it, and just enjoy what comes in my way. The present is a gift. Dreamland, actually, can exist, and not only in your imagination or dreams. Dreamland, is not a land where all your wishes come true, is the land where everything is a wish that came true. A wish you probably didn't think you wish for. A wish you can start wishing right now.

PS: Hunting for sales while shopping and checking tags before you buy an item, is actually really fun, don't you think? Kinda makes shopping an adventure... very nice one, though ... :)
