New layout!

I made a new layout, as you could see, and I’m quite proud of. It’s a dedication to dance, as I like it so much and it’s part of my life, and this year will be kinda sad one cause I won’t be going to dance anymore, as I can go to neither the IFMD World Championship in Greece cause it’s in the same period with my exams, nor the IDF World Championship in Barcelona cause some team mates couldn’t afford the trip :( . So basically this will be a no-dance year, and it’s gonna be quite hard for to get used not to go training. Hopefully, this layout will remind me of dance :)

I have to go now cause my eyes really hurt as I spent some hours today working on this new layout. I hope you like it! ^^

I know my layout really messes up in Internet Explorer, but I don’t know why, and I doubt that it will look the same if I try to make it look pretty good in Internet Explorer. This is how it looks like in Mozilla Firefox. If you have any suggestions on how to make it look fine in Internet Explorer too please tell me in a comment or contact me. I’d be really thankful! :)

Geography contest, snow& lots of other things

I tried to blog on Thursday and Friday night, but each time I tried to download the photos with the snow that has fallen, my computer froze and then after I restarted it it wouldn’t open :| So I just give and I blog now 8-|

Today I had a geography contest that the teacher obliged me to go to X( She hasn’t made any preparation with us for this contest, she just told us “The contest is on Saturday at 8:30 pm at School No. 30″. Haha…well said 8-| It was like “Go there and do what you know cause I don’t wanna work out my head too much” …Whatever… So here I went this morning to that school that happens to be Razvan’s school (that boy I told you about in my last blogs, that might join us in the dance team). It was me, Ramona, Ana and Mihaela (lool…I really don’t know why this girl came cause she’s rubbish! :)) ). Actually I haven’t studied too much for this stupid contest, just what I remembered from what I had to learn for the exam in December :D Anyway, I was quite lucky cause we were seated like so: in front of me was also a girl in the 8th grade, and then in desk behind me another 8th grade girl. As the teachers that supervised us weren’t too attentive, basically he helped each other a lot, and did kinda common work :D It was funny..haha :D I’ve never been to a contest and cheated that much :blush: Whatever..I don’t care that much about the result…cause anyway I didn’t want to go, didn’t study that much…and so on :D

Also at this contest we met Bianca, a dance team mate :) She told us that that boy in her classroom that practices dance might join us. Yay! :biggrin: This might be a chance to get rid of Marian..mwhaha >:) Nothing’s very sure yet, cause he didn’t come to the training he had today cause Bianca forgot to tell him 8-| but he should come tomorrow. I still don’t know if he’s able to come to Barcelona, but my hope level raised a little anyway :D Today at training Ramona and I switched our temporarily partners..haha :D So I danced with Robert and she danced with Marian. The reason for this is that Ramona found out from another boy in the team, Manu, that Robert has kind of a crush on her, so she doesn’t want to dance with him anymore..lol :)) Complicated stuff! ;)

Ahh…and now about the snow part! Yes, we had snow on Thursday evening! It is a bit late I thing, cause I was expecting for snow in December and January, but not in late February :| But heh…as a lot of people here say… Things always arrive in Romania with a big delay 8-| Now even snow arrives late here..lol :| I wanted to show you some photos of the snow, but I don’t dare to plug in the camera again and risk to freeze the computer again :nerd: Anyway, now everything’s melting down and the so-called snow does nothing else than wetting my boots X(

This site really lacks for updates :| I haven’t realized before, but I’ve been keeping that Resources section under re-vamp for so much time that I can’t even remember when I started (theoretically saying ‘started’). It also needs a new layout! I’ve been having in mind a layout for so much time, but it seems that I’ve never had time to transform my ideas into something real :( I’ll try my best this weekend, which is already almost half over … :|

School’s blog

Here is the youtube channel of my anime lovers friends, also knows as Anime Addicts TM. Please watch their videos, they are really funny :D

We opened school’s blog, and I’m one of the administrators b-) We opened it although we didn’t get the approval from the head master :| It was kinda protest against her ..or dunno :D Anyway, I’m also its ‘designer’, but unfortunately WordPress doesn’t allow own made themes for blogs, which means I have to customize the actual theme, and this kinda sucks :( I can’t show off my webdesigning skills b-) We got a quite big number of visitors in the first 2 days from opening (about 500 by this moment I guess), so basically this was the happiest thing that happened to me this weekend :)

Oh yeah…it was Valentine’s Day on Saturday 8-| This year it was even more insignificant for me lol :| The last years, at least I received presents. Well, I didn’t have a boyfriend either, but I had admirers..haha b-) This year I received just a big headache and an urge to dance with Marian! X( You know I told you about all that dance and trip to Barcelona issue and this possibility of dancing with that 13 years old skinny boy called Marian :nerd: Oh…this weekend at training the coach obliged me to dance with him! :mad: I don’t have nothing with him, he’s a polite boy, but I just can’t dance with him. I feel like crying after every training I had to dance with him :(( And it’s not his fault! It’s like….faith’s fault! Arghh..dunno :-s Anyway, I’m so sad and disappointed now :( My only hope lies in Razvan, cause if he decides to come I may have a change to dance with him. But if the coach wants him to dance with Ramona, it will be like he haven’t came at all, and I’ll be ‘doomed’ to dance with Marian :(( But there still might be yet another chance, though I’m a bit sceptical about this :| Bianca, one of the girls in the team and a very good friend, said that she has a classmate who practices dance at the same club with Razvan, and that she’ll tell him about this situation and try to convince him and his parents as well to join us to Barcelona. In this situation, both me and Ramona would have a partner, and very good ones in fact. This would be like those dreamy movie-like happy ends, which is kinda less likely to happen, but I still keep hoping anyway :nerd:

Ahh…hope you had better weekends and Valentine’s Days than me! :) And yet another hope, my next blog will be strewed with good and great news only! ^^

Hope makes the world keep going! ^.^

50% chances we go to Barcelona…

I’m one of the administrators of the new opened School Blog!

Yesterday, we had the parents’ meeting for Barcelona, to decide whether we will go or not to that IDF World Championship. I wanted to blog about it last evening after I came from the parents’ meeting, but mom had something to work on the computer so I didn’t have time.
So, Ramona, Irina and I remained in the gym hall to train with the little ones, while all the parents and some of our team mates went with one of our coaches(Misses Toma) in a classroom to discuss. I was feeling both anxious and nervous to find out what they finally decided cause I felt things won’t go that easy… The price is maybe a bit high (500 euros) and I knew that this may raise problems for some of us. When they finally finished, Misses Toma came into the gym having a pretty disappointed face, so I immediately thought something might had gone wrong. Then we went into the hall, where all the parents had gathered. They told us that Dragos and Mihai won’t come to Barcelona, cause their parents think the price is too high 8-| But…just for you to know why this fact is to disastrous for me… Mihai is MY partner, and Dragos is Ramona’s (my best friend) partner :| However, this is kinda disaster for the whole team, not only that we were the 2 most balanced couples and we were the only that could do all the figures, but in this situation we are just 3 couples (with boys smaller than girls 8-| ), 2 girls without partner ( Ramona and I) and also one boy that doesn’t have a partner. So I was offered to dance with Marian, the other boy that doesn’t have a partner, but..WTF? He’s like 13 years old (and I’m almost 15), a lot smaller than me and I can bet he’s unable to hold me even at the most simple figure X( I’m so angry at Mihai and Dragos, cause I can’t figure out how they pretend to be out of money for this, when other parents, that I can bet that earn less money and their parents, said there is no problem and they allow their children to go to Barcelona. I think this is just rude, and it’s because they don’t want to come not because they don’t have the money. They have known the price for more than a week ago, so they could have told us since the moment they found out that they can’t come, so we could try to find some other boys. I have to admit that I have known for about a week that Mihai may not come, cause his grandma phoned and told my mother, but as long as he still came to trainings the whole week, I thought there still might be a chance. However, Ramona was more than sure that Dragos will come, and was really shocked when his mother lost her yesterday :| Besides this, Ramona also injured her leg quite seriously while training, so I reckon she won’t be able to train properly for a week or even more :( I was so frustrated that I almost burst into tears :(( I consider they are kinda thick skins they don’t come, cause I can bet is not about money, as long as my parents can afford this, their parents should be able to afford it too, even easier perhaps 8-| A short time after I arrived home, Ramona called me to tell that Misses Cojocaru (the other coach) phoned her and proposed to ask Razvan whether he wants to join us again. He was in our team last year, but he left because he didn’t want to dance with the partner he had anymore. Missed Cojocaru told Ramona that she should dance with Razvan and I should dance with Marian-the 13 years old thin boy I told you about before X( . Of course Ramona said she couldn’t do such a thing because she knows that there was something ermm… :biggrin: ..let’s call ‘special’ between me and Razvan :blush: I told Ramona that if Razvan accepts to come, we should let him choose his partner between me and her, and the one that isn’t chosen will dance with poor bad dancing Marian :| I know it sounds like ‘chance lottery’ , but we don’t have another solution :( So last night I waited until Razvan signed on messenger and asked him whether he’d like to join us again. He said he doesn’t know, and then he sent a crying smiley when he heard he has to choose between me and Ramona :| Out chances to be chosen by him are really really equal and I know is a tough decision for him :( Anyway, when I say he isn’t giving me a certain answer I just told him to please think about it and then signed off. Today at school, Misses Toma (who’s also the sports teacher in our school :) ) came to our class to see whether Ramona’s injured leg is getting better. We told her about Misses Cojocaru’s idea to ask Razvan, and she totally disagreed :| So now I’m feeling like guilty, and I really don’t know what to do if the boy finally decides to come :| What should I tell him? ‘Oh well, you see…that was Misses Cojocaru’s idea, but Misses Toma doesn’t want you to join us, and you know the final decision is hers…so…I’m sorry…you can’t come *puts some big grins here* . Oh no! This would make things between me and him even worse :nerd: I just hope he forgets everything I told him last night! :-s Anyway, he’s online for half an hour now and he hasn’t said anything yet, so he may have forgotten or decided not to come :| It feels so weird for me to say such things when I wanted so much to have him between us again, and maybe even as a dance partner *dreamy face here* , but I really don’t want to complicate things and make my coach angry at me 8-|

Fingers crossed for us please! I really want to go to Barcelona! :((
