Acum ceva timp am primit o invitaţie de la Ştefan pentru o iniţiativă numită Ziarul Deschis. Nu ştiam ce să cred iniţial, dar Ştefan are un dar neîntâlnit de stârni interesul neegalat de o şi mai mare putere de convingere :). Am ajuns să cred cu adevărat că un astfel de proiect este necesar şi că e timpul să fac şi eu ceva, nu doar să mă plâng de ţărişoara asta.
Între timp am lucrat mult la customizarea platformei şi la implementarea ideilor năstruşnice venite de la Ştefan. Mai mult, de acum câteva zile avem şi un redactor şef, pe Nadia, care ne-a suportat cu stoicism ideile şi care totuşi a reuşit să se impună. Acum câteva zile ţineam morţiş să avem un “feature” că altfel nu arată design-ul bine. M-am liniştit. Fiecare îşi face treaba, şi o să ne vedeţi roadele în curând :).
Bine, bine … am înţeles, da’ ce-i cu ziaru’ ăsta? Păi:
Ziarul Deshis este o publicaţie online, scrisă de jurnalişti amatori din întreaga ţară, cărora le dăm şansa să fie citiţi şi apreciaţi, să crească într-ale jurnalismului şi să publice lunar în presa regională şi naţională, drept recompense pentru calitatea muncii lor în cadrul Ziarului Deschis.
Dacă sunteţi interesaţi de a deveni jurnalişti la Ziarul Deschis, scrieţi-i lui Ştefan (stefan@teisanu.ro) pentru mai multe detalii. Dacă credeţi că prietenii voştri ar fi interesaţi, vă rog să-i direcţionaţi către el.
Să fie într-un ceas bun!

One hundred posts ago I started blogging here “the the place where I lay down my thoughts, where I shared my experiences gathered passing trough this voyage called life”. The day it all began was April 12 2005. I started blogging to keep my friends updated during the time I was in the Netherlands as an intern in AIESEC International. It was easier to share my experience than everything else out there but I can’t say this was entirely my idea. I got inspired by Arthur, and I still am when I read some of his posts. He’s one of the few who managed to leave a mark on my life and I’m forever grateful for that.
Almost 4 years, 1426 days, 19271 visits, 100 posts and 202 comments later I must say that I’ve changed a bit since this journey began, well who wouldn’t? I’m all grown up now (sad / smiley face). These 4 years have been a hell of a ride … I’ve had my share of good and bad, made new friends and became disconnected from others, I’ve traveled, I’ve teached, I’ve messed up, I’ve inspired, I’ve learned new things, I’ve made some people happy and I’ve also made some people sad. This is all part of this thing called life.

I was thinking about not posting about this … but what the hell. Earlier this month I had the “pleasure” to check out one of this countries medical facilities. In not so many words I’ve had surgery. I’ve had a major fight with my appendix and he had to go.
It all started with a pain one morning that was bearable but wouldn’t go away … so I decided to go to the hospital. I’ve arrived at 8 AM and for the next five hours I was moved back and forth between the hospital buildings. I had x-rays, ecography, blood and urine tests. I was examined by four different doctors, all saying it’s food poisoning. In the end I was sent to the infectious diseases wing to spend the night there. In all this time I was getting weaker and weaker, at the end I could barely walk.
My father felt the need to step in, this had gone the wrong way for too long, and asked to transfer me to the surgical wing where he used to work before he retired. He called former colleague to examine me and pointed out that I needed surgery right away. He believed I was misdiagnosed and this was a case of atypical appendicitis.

Two days ago, a private held company succeeded called SpaceX in launching the first privately developed rocket into space. After several (some very expensive) failures, they’ve finally made it!
If some of you fail to understand the huge significance of this moment let me make it clear for you: The space race has entered the private sector. The cost of sending a 1kg into space is $22.000 at today’s costs. Basically, to send an object into space costs almost the same amount in gold. This company with limited resources, has succeeded in putting a vehicle on a precise orbit around earth and plans to slice this price in half … manned missions will follow.
It’s started :).

Yes, it’s true, my hair color has changed: it’s blond now. Well kinda’. It’s more of a greenish blond. I think I mentioned my friend, Soso the hair stylist, in an earlier post. Well he needed me again and this time it was a lot easier to say yes. I just was damn curious … sorry :).
