Not to long ago, May 31 if I remember correctly, I took part in a festival named Teen Fest that takes place each year in my region. This year theme was about Boosting, Inspiring and Giving courage to those that are incapacitated or socially disabled. I went on the stage, and had my little fun talking about this theme. Thing is, I won 1st place at the monologue contest and the festival award. The reasons I think I received this award are:
There are times in one’s life when he reaches a wall or a mountain he can’t pass he can eighter look back and live in the past, while feeling sorry for him/herself or one could move on, and try to jump over that wall and if he can’t do that, one could climb it, and even if that doesn’t work one could get a hammer or a cannon and blow that wall to smithereens.
Last Saturday(5th of June) I had the pleasure to take part at the second edition of TweetMeet Buzau. If I where to describe the meeting in 1 word, then that word would be: “Awesome”. And I mean it. The people where awesome, the jokes they made where awesome, the cookies we ate where awesome, everything and everyone at that place and time can be described like that. I had a lot of fun watching the guys from #DreamTeamRo, listening to Alex and Roxana Farca, eating the cookies brought by Sabina and cooked by her uncle, discussing ’bout gadgets and laptops with Mihai Baboi, Chinezu and Marius [Make].
Here’s some of the photos I took with my iPhone:

Again, it was a great meeting and I had allot of fun there. Thank you for coming to my hometown guys, I’m looking forward to seeing you all again.
People that attended the meeting: Iulyan, Laura, Robert and Adriana, Lumea Mare Roxana and Alex Farca, Stefan Murgeanu, Claudiu Ciobanu, Vlad Dulea, Mihai Baboi, Paun Eugen, Cutzitaru Cazacu Dragos, Marius Matache, Chinezu, Sabina and George Jipa.
I recently downloaded a Battlenet® Mobile Authenticator on my iPhone in order to secure my World of Warcraft account. Some of my friends wanted to follow in my steps, but since I am the only owner of an iPhone in my little WoW group @ School, most of them eighter had to buy a Blizzard Authenticator, or leave their account as they had it before. Thankfully, by searching on WoWWiki I found a link to this site. A few minutes later I downloaded the .jar file and decided to make a front-end for it.
Instructions:
When you first start the program go to Settings and click eighter Setup EU or Setup US, depending on your region. Afterwords, just click Sync in the same menu. This steps are required only once. In order to retrieve your Authenticator code, just click fetch.
Attention:
Be sure to backup the “authenticator.configure” that is generated the first time you run BNPA.exe . If by mistake you will “re-setup” the app, a different Authenticator serial could be generated, which can be harmful for your account, thus the Auth Code will not match the one needed in order to log in.
You can download it from my dropbox account by Clicking Here.
Since Saint Valentine’s day is so close, close enough for you to scratch your nose with it without having to move a finger, my school is hosting a ‘Poetry contest’ in it’s honor, and since I became a regular host for this kind of things I have to open the festivity by reciting a poem I had to write myself.
Now, usually I hate doing this kind of things when asked by someone because I only like to write stuff when I’m in the mood for it. But since my teacher promised me a good spanking, and not in a kinky kind of way, I had no way of turning down the offer, well I could have, but I care to much for my ‘end’.
The poem has been written in about 20 minutes. It’s related to the post before this because all I did was to expose my own feelings in an ‘artistic kind of way’. The name I chose for it is “Sword of Truth”, as a homage for an epic show called “The Seeker” and for the books that the series is based on. Read the rest of this entry »
I’ve been spending the last two months contemplating on what I am, what I have become and who or what I used to be. It may seem a little to dramatic to say that in the past three years my life was assaulted by an endless pit of sad moments and epic failures, but that’s how I see it. Thanks to some recent events I actually began to realize that, even though back then I felt hurt and sad, the pain existed only as an ‘individual’ and not as a howl. Actually the sad moments that I have lived have done nothing more then to ‘awaken’ me from my ‘deep slumber’ I got myself in. But when I stop and think about everything that happened, I realized that in the end, I don’t feel any pain, nor grief, but happiness. A happiness I cannot yet explain for some strange reason, but I hope I will be able to in the near future.
Today was a really busy day for me. Without wanting I ran into some old pictures taken in my childhood, pictures with my late grandmother, my parents and relatives, pictures of my dear old friends, whom I ceased seeing due to life’s unexpected way of ‘working’. I felt deeply marked by all those memories that, until now, where shattered and hidden, locked away by my subconscious in order to block me from feeling sad. But I only realized this after seeing a good friend of mine crying in despair, complaining about how hard her life is, how she is struck between two ‘opposing forces’. It wasn’t until then that I realized what I have done.
By forcing myself to forget bad memories of the past, memories about shattered friendships, of people leaving my side, of failed relationships I did nothing more then to deepen my grief, and actually obscure the path I was walking on. All my life I remember myself complaining about how useless I am, about how I cannot maintain a relationship with someone, about how I am not able of even starting one due to the doubts I have when it comes to other people, about how unfit I see myself in today’s society. Still can’t believe that what I’ve been doing was nothing more then digging my own hole. Read the rest of this entry »
I’ve finally managed to find a good host for “Prism and Cube”. The comic is now hosted by Smack Jeeves, a neat community for allot of webcomic readers and authors. Also, Prism and Cube are presented in a new style. You can check it out here.
Here it is. The second issue of my comic.
I’ve got really bored recently so I decided to start a comic that I could post once or twice a week (maybe three times?). This is what I came up with. It’s my very first comic and it’s aimed at game developers and coders.
Story: The main characters are a pyramid (ironically named Prism) and a cube (called Cube) who meet in a game prototype coded by someone(John). The comic will follow their adventures through the entire development time, both of them ‘being rendered’ in the most uncommon situations possible. Anywho, without further ado, here you have it:
P.s. the 18 verticles thing will be explained in another number 
I just got back from the regional English contest. Sadly enough, I didn’t qualify for the next stage, not because my essay was bad, and to be honest it was one of the best there, since I managed to put a smile on everyone faces, but because of some bad written requirements at which I failed.
