I find myself in between job, internships and freelancing and I have to prioritize them as needed but I assume it’s going to constantly be a temporary prioritization.

And just when I thought I managed to regulate my sleeping hours, this shit happens: after waking up at 6:30 in the morning and going to bed at 12:30 in the night, I wake up at 2 AM being more awaken than I ever was. Might be because of all those tiny details that cross my mind every now and then.

Hope it’s gonna get warmer in Bucharest when I get there. Not that I would be hot or anything…

Denmark, see you on your national holiday, the Ascension day, on the 13th of May.

On the ferry while writing this. Just left Aarhus and it’s snowing as hell. Come to think about it, I think it’s a lot better in hell in regards to the snow. Unlike last thursday when we had the first snow in Denmark this year(winter), the busses travelled fine and the only delay I have had so far are 5 minutes with the bus from skjoldhoj to downtown and 10 minutes late on getting on the ferry, because of the huge queue of cars which are going to Sjaelland.

As I said in the previous post, I am afraid. Not sure though what I am afraid of anymore but my heart is pumping as it never has. It might be because of all the chocolate I ate and all the coffee I drank but then again, I do that each day so it’s not a good enough reason. I was saying the ferry is packed. Fuckin’ hell, it is! I barely found a seat to sit on and write this complete non-sense! I keep on wondering how Romania will be like. Yes, it will be cold and dusty at the same time but that is not what I mean. What will I do there? Who am I going to go out with? Will I make new friends/accquaintances or will I start going out again with the people that used to be my friends? God knows…

I do know one thing though: no matter what happens there, I do have a lot of things and people to think about in Aarhus. I can safely say that Aarhus is my home at the moment and I am seriously considering finishing my bachelor degree in web development here. Screw Copenhagen, Edinburgh and any other towns, I just feel like Aarhus is the place for me to be in for the next couple of months/years.

Never thought I would say what I’ve just said. Nevertheless, life takes you to some situations and feelings that you were never accustomed to. It’s intriguing how things change in a matter of years, months or even days!

So, back to the journey! It never felt so nice to listen to Mourning Beloveth. Staying on the ferry with the headphones on my head while looking at the misty sea and the snow that hits the window is just marvelous. I’m getting more and more calm by every minute that passes and this is just wonderful. Funny enough, I just remembered that my luggage changed its lock code by mistake! It went from 0-0-0 (the classical combination) to a very odd 0-1-0. I found that by mistake but at least I did! Otherwise, you might see me opening my luggage with a screwdriver!

Ah.. Romania. Except my dear ones back there, there are a couple of things that I really really miss like the Timi?oreana beer, King’s Club, Fire Club, Revenge Club and whole lot of other shit. Ok, I will stop with the writing here for the moment. Last thing I want to say is that I have two friends who had the same route as I do (only they did not have to go to Copenhagen since they live there) and they missed the connecting flight from Prague to Bucharest. Czech Airlines assured their accommodation for that night and they got home the next day. I can’t say I want that to happen but seing Prague during winter might be awesome…

Oh, did I mention I’m going to Wien for my birthday? Hypocrisy concert!!

Back on the bus now. Well, I’ve been back on the bus for the past 50 minutes or so but I’ve watched a tad of “The Descent” and played some FIFA 10. It’s so strange to listen to Negura Bunget while seing this Danish snow on the window of the bus. Well, I met another Romanian who is flying to Bucharest but he will be flying with Malev and leave/arrive one hour after me. Meh, at least I will not be staying by myself in the airport.

Isn’t it funny how I always get in the mood of writing on the blog whenever I don’t have any internet access? Yeah, thought so…

It’s the first time I feel so afraid of flying. It’s not because of the snow, the take off or the landing. It’s more about the destination and the shock that flying brings into ones heart and mind. One minute you’re in one shithole, next thing you know, you’re in another one, waiting for the flight to your next shithole.

I don’t know how home is going to be like but I do hope it will be alright. I took all the books I have (either in .pdf or in .paper formats) and in case I am left out of things to do, I might as well start studying for the exams in January, right? Meh, I have to see how things are like though.

I had to pack more stuff than needed just to have the luggage more full. That’s embarrassing but I have no clue how that happened. I mean, did I lose some clothes since August? Did I drop anything anywhere and forgot to pick it up? Fockin’ hell, this is odd.

So, going back to the flying part, here are some tips when you book plane tickets (just personal experience):

• they are always cheaper on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
• before buying a plane ticket, be sure to check more than one agency to see if there is any other cheaper combination. Ignore expedia, they are a piece of shit.
• think large so even think about buying both sides of the flight by yourself. Say you want to go from Aarhus to Bucharest, like me, there are multiple options: 1) go to copenhagen and then travel with scandinavian airlines, austrian airlines, malev or czech airlines (even finnair had routes this summer), 2) go to billund, fly to milano with ryanair and then to bucharest with wizzair, 3) fly from aarhus to london (ryanair) then from london to bucharest (blueair), 4) fly from aarhus to london (ryanair), london to milano (ryanair), milano to bucharest (wizzair). Any combination is possible but you have to take care when buying the tickets.

This would be about it. Hope I’ll have a pleasant journey and speak soon, guys. If I get the chance, I might post something on my twitter account. All the best!

Other than that, I couldn’t be more happy. Today was a wonderful day and I can say that spending the holidays in your home town is something everyone should do once in a while: seing some unfamiliar places might be nice but spending time with some of the people you love and care about is more than awesome. If I were to make a combination of my ideal place to live in, I would mix some of the people I know in Romania with a few people I know in Denmark and live in Aarhus, with the Romanian prices and food but with the Danish salaries.

Oh, did I mention I’m in love?

speak later.. It’s Santana gig tomorow evening!

The thing is that I have made a stop over in Helsinki and then I headed for Bucharest but there are some people who only went from Helsinki to Otopeni and their luggage still hasn’t arrived. We weren’t give any explanation and I don’t know what to do: my wardrobe and all my souvenirs are gone and the only clothes I have left are a pair of shoes, the white jeans, a shirt and some long sleeves. I do hope Finnair will find those luggage’s otherwise God knows what us will do. This is tottally , tottally, unacceptable!

Here’s a short log I kept in the last day, I am going to bed now, using my brother’s short pants cause I don’t have anything else to wear and the heat in Bucharest is astounding even during the night.

I just arrived in Copenhagen Airport. The sun is shining more than what I had expected but this is a good thing cause it keeps me awake. I left Skjoldhoj kollegiet around 11 PM last night and I got to the train station in Aarhus at 12. Waiting for the train to the airport was not as harsh as I thought it would be since I just solved some crosswords, drank a cappucino and hanged around. However, the journey on the train was not how I expected it to be: although it was a Wednesday to Thursday night, the train was packed and I am so happy I paid those extra 30 kroner to book a seat. Another thing that kept me awake while on the train was the movie I decided to watch: Watchmen, the extended edition. 3 hours full of everything you could want (I skipped some nudity scenes since there was a 13 year old next to me and I didn’t want to give the wrong impression).
Among the things I have forgotten to buy are the batteries for the camera. I was just about to buy them from 7-11 but I changed my mind when I noticed that I have paid 40kr on a 0.5 liters bottle of coca-cola. Oh well, I guess that’s just how the prices are everywhere around here and it’s just a pity that they wouldn’t take euros. Meh, it’s alright though.
I’m gonna shut down the laptop now in order to save some battery so I’ll be able to write more from Helsinki and why not, from the plane (although I am surely going to be sleeping on the way to Bucharest).
God damn it, I am so nervous!

I now regret the fact that I didn’t book an earlier flight to Helsinki. I am just hanging around the airport (literally) with a huge thirst but no way I am paying another 40kr for that coca-cola! I am not tired anymore and I feel just fine like I have been awake for 3 or 4 hours I was just hanging around outside and I heard a couple speaking Romanian so I talked a little with them. The lucky bastards had Czech Airlines tickets and are due to arrive in Bucharest around 2 PM. Oh well, at least I won’t feel the heat of the concrete as they will hee hee.
I am getting pretty bored but I think I will survive. The flight I was talking about earlier will depart in around 1h40m so I could have done the checkin since now instead of just walking around with this (hopefully less than) 20kg luggage. Meh, I am wondering who is actually going to read this article but anyway
Well, I honestly don’t think I am going to write anything else from Copenhagen so I ‘ll continue this article when I’ll be in Finland! Hurray!

I am very nervous. Actually, my heart is pumping out of my chest at the momment and I have no idea how I’m going to make it pump less. Well, there isn’t much to say except that I am extremely looking forward to a particular meeting on Friday with a certain special person

Well, that’s it for now, Denmark! See you soon with your blaze of glory and your soul-hurting winters. If you don’t hear from me, I’m either too happy to go online or check the news Just for fun, here’s the map of my travel to come. All the best!

Another strange thing happened today: I decided to immitate Freddie Mercury and I vacuumed my room. Come to think about it, I would have celebrated 4 months without any vacuuming sometimes next week. And here is the oddest part of them all: I couldn’t sleep at noon. Yeah, me, Victor, couldn’t sleep at noon. You can start laughing, bang my head on a wall and mark this day in your calendar.

Meh, I can’t stop thinking about the following summer. No really, I think about it with more and more with each second that passes by. Some of my plans are going to Artmania ( Pain + Opeth + My Dying Bride + Nightwish = LOVE ), go to the Romanian seaside, visit Piatra Neamt (I haven’t seen that city in 6 years now, I think) and spend some nights in the Romanian metal clubs. And these are only my selfish plans, the rest would be too much to write. I just can’t wait for the moment I’ll embark on the plane to Helsinki and feel reliefed that I will finally be doing it! I will be coming home! Almost 2 months to go hurray!
