Respect

I read this piece of text the other day and it really spoke to me. Recently the subject of respect has been a recurring topic in my life and this put into words perfectly how I felt about it. 

It is an argued topic, but I believe all people are equal and just because of your job, or what you studied it doesn't make you a more important person. Yes maybe you have higher authority when it comes to certain things, but at the end of the day you are just as important a human being as the bum that lives down the road from you.

Try and keep that in mind.

Over the weekend I went with a few friends to some tiny city in the middle of nowhere for a 'weekend get-away'.

The place was beautiful. Plus itt was really nice being away and not having responsibilites for a bit.  

I want:

But I don't want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. I want sin.

NAF Camp

A month ago I went to help out at this camp for underprivilaged children and people with disabilities. I didn't post about it till now as I was waiting for all the pictures to be uploaded so I could find the best ones. 

Here goes:

All in all it was really great to spend a whole week with my friends and help organize a camp. 

A while ago I wrote about having some news, well I got into university here in Hungary. It all happened really quickly. So as of late I quit my job and today I had my first day.
I'm really excited to see where all of this takes me.

As a major part of my studies will be concentrated on writing and journalism, we will see if it will be obvious on my blog that I am improving.

Make it Happen!

One of the things I learned about life is that anything is possible. If you want something bad enough you can get it if you work for it. It may happen over night, or in a few years, but it is always possible. 

Never give up on your dreams.

Summer '15

Once again I am here with my family enjoying my summer holiday and being a lazy bum. This last week was so relaxing, I slept almost 12 hours every night and didn't do much during the day. It is so weird being here for this long, I feel like I am away from the real world and all the problems that it includes. 

Tomorrow we are going to the Balaton lake, which is great as I missed swimming soooo much. I probably won't have any internet there, it will be strange living for a week without it. I like that though. When I don't have internet and don't need it everything is so different. Yes at times boring, but otherwise good different. 

I have some pretty big news, but am waiting with posting it here as I don't wanna jinx it. Let's just say that my life is going to be completely different next year then it was this year, and I am excited. 

Anyway going to go back to watching series. 

Peace out.

Food for Thought

"We have all hurt someone tremendously, whether by intent or accident. We have all loved someone tremendously, whether by intent or accident. It is an intrinsic human trait, and a deep responsibility, I think, to be an organ and a blade. But, learning to forgive ourselves and others because we have not chosen wisely is what makes us most human. We make horrible mistakes. It’s how we learn. We breathe love. It’s how we learn. And it is inevitable."

—Nayyirah Waheed

Edinburgh 2015

One of the main things I have repeatedly mentioned on my blog is getting into college/university, which is what I have been trying to do for the past 2 or more years, there is always some reason why I don't get in or it doesn't work out. Here you have my latest story on the subject.

Since I really want to get my bachelor degree on Early Childhood Education, I have applied to lots of places but always hear different news back from them. The reason I have not been accepted in Hungary is because Hungarian universities don't accept my high school diploma and they don't have the course in English here. I tried applying in some other countries but come to realize soon after, that I could never afford them. All that being said I learned that Scotland would be my best option and therefore applied to a lot of colleges there. I was called for an interview for one in a small town called Galashiels and since it wasn't possible to do it over skype I happily spent a ton of money and flew to Scotland. I stayed 2 nights and 3 days in Edinburgh and went to Galashiels only for my interview. I got accepted but not on the level I would have liked. If I would go to college there it would take me 6 years to have my bachelors degree, which is a huge waste of time considering I have been teaching kindergarten for years now. Therefore I have made a new decision: I am going to study a different subject. Life keeps on throwing it in my face that this won't work out, at first I thought I wasn't trying hard enough, but after a while I realized that maybe it wasn't meant to be. I may be wrong, but I am now trying to get into university here in Hungary from February and after I have my BA I can always go back to teaching in a kindergarten. 

Maybe things are complicated, but at least this interview helped contribute to my travels. 

Here are some pictures of Edinburgh, which is a beautiful city:

This is the first picture I took, from the bus. I always knew the Scots were famous for their kilts, but I never expected them to have separate shops where they sell them.

The Cathedral

The Castle -the Game Of Thrones sky cells idea were taken from this castle

Of course, the typical red phone booths from the UK

This was pretty funny

The entrance to the cemetery dome is made from the ashes of dead people

This is for all my friends who are Harry Potter fans:

As most people know J. K. Rowling is from Edinburgh.

She wrote the first 2 books in this cafe called The Elephant House 

(I know I should have taken the picture from the front)

George Hariot's School, the inspiration for Hogwarts, it has 4 houses and 4 towers
