Iarna

Si uite asa, a venit si Decembrie.....Iarna....fara zapada deocamdata. Nu pot sa zic decat ca e naspa, fara. In fine, avem un nou presedinte(din nou politica, dar nu m-am putut abtine), pe vechiul presedinte:)). Si nu in ultimul rand, un nou film din seria "twillight"(Toilet, mai degraba) a starnit agitatie in multime. Care multime? Multimea de minori frigizi si pitzi care l-au asteptat cu sufletele la gura. Manca-v-ar tata de frumosi >:) ! In rest astept cu nerabdare starile boeme din vacanta ce urmeaza, guvernate de narghilea cu aroma de scortisoara, vin rosu si companie selecta.

11 lucruri pe care nu le inveti la scoala

Bill Gates, nu demult, a tinut un discurs - cel putin interesant, zic eu - la un liceu, despre lucrurile  pe care nu le invatam in scoala. Domnia sa sutine ca toate invataturile in spiritul "politically corectness" au creat o generatie de copii fara simtul realitatii. De asemenea, mai sustine ca tot aceste invataturi ne pun sub semnul esecului in viata reala. Astfel, ne prezinta 11 reguli care ar trebui afisate in toate scolile, dupa cum urmeaza(le-am lasat in limba originala pentru a nu denatura in vre-un fel mesajul:

1. Life is not fair - get used to it!
2. The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself..
3. You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.
4. If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.
5. Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.
6. If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
7. Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.
8. Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.
9. Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time..
10. Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
11. Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

Personal, cred ca regula nr. 11 est cea mai interesanta.

"Hai la Sfanta!"

Azi, in jurul orei 20 ma suna un coleg si-mi zice" hai la Sfanta!"(pentru cei care nu stiu despre ce e vorba: astazi, cand caledarul crestin ortodox indica Sf. Cuvioasa Parascheva, in Iasi se desfasoara "Serbarile Orasului", adica trafic aglomerat in miez de zi, o droaie de mici interprinzatori asezati militareste pe trotuar de-a lungul a doua statii de autobuz si un intreg balci de-a lungul digului faimosului rau "inspumat", Bahluiul ). Auzind vorbele colegului am ramas uluit pentru ca m-am dus cu gandul la pelerinaj, la imbulzeala de la Mitropolie. Ca sa aflu defapt, ca el vroia sa mearga la balci. L-am refuzat politicos,( "imi cer scuze, dar nu mai am bani")i-am mutumit de invitatie si i-am urat toate cele bune. Concluzia, ramane la atitudinea cititorului....

"The king is dead, long live the king"

Incep prima postare cu o stire:" A cazut guvernul". Care guvern? Boc....Boc2, mai exact. Guvernul care s-a dat de ceasul mortii in ultimele luni sa aduca imbunatatiri in Cetatea Babylonului din Balcani(adica Romania). Desi n-ar trebui s-o dau pe politica la varsta mea, eu, ca cetatean al acestei tari si viitor bugetar ma intereseaza totusi in ce directie ne deplasam. Astept cu interes - DA! pe unii chiar ii intereseaza - alegerile la care voi merge sa votez. Eu unul refuz sa fiu ignorant dar, nici nu voi musca din pomenele electorale si gogosile stufoase ale zelosilor politicieni. "Hai Romania!"
