So, what have I done in 2009?
I have a friend that inspired me with his objectives for 2010. I'll try to evaluate 2009, based on his categories:
Build & Achieve
- I've worked as a full-time employee for a great project and with a great leader and mentor - Rocs
- I've managed to receive my scolarship and I became an ERASMUS student for 4 months
- My final presentation at Groningen University was very much appreciated and I received an offer for continuing my PhD there
- I am an engineer since September 2009
- I started writing for a travelling blog, http://www.viajoa.ro/
Enjoy Life
- travelled a lot: Netherlands (all over the place), Latvia (Riga), France (Paris by HH), The Czech Republic (Prague and Decin), Italy (Rome)
- sport (swimming, skiing, snorkelling, skating) with beautiful people
- had a great international experience boys-related; lots of fun, lots of energy and lots of cultural differences were shared. I will miss that!
- friends (I discovered Scarlett, Dusko, Jelena, Sam and Iker in the Netherlands & Latvia; I re-discovered and strengthen my relationships with Irina, Ina, Cris and Vlady)
- CouchSurfing (met people, stayed on their couches, participated to events, hosted in Bucharest, had great fun)
Grow
- I learned a lot in Groningen: about GROMACS, molecular dynamics, assembler; about Dutch culture and traditions, about the Dutch language
- my self-esteem grew by travelling as a hitchhiker from Prague to Romania, by adapting with grace in a foreign environment, by recovering rather quickly from the depression of the return
- I had 5 experiences as a trainer this year and I feel that I grew from them and that my trainees grew as well
- I read a lot and I had a stronger connection with me and with my feelings.
- I learned how important is to work in a great team for NewMediaSchool with CROS. Thanks guys!
