A mum like us


A mum like us, a wild-duck, was on one side of the street. On the other side, the few little babies she had, were trying to cross, to finally be near mama again. A car stopped to avoid crushing them. 

The young man tries to put them careful'n a box and bring them near mum.

The high-speed traffic stopped, the public clapps: how good somebody could be to take his time for that?

The young man almost finished "paking" them. Another car comes from behind. No stop. No wait',"no time for stupid things" and crushed the mamma-duck. I see the young man lifting hands up "My God!" look what you've done! Too late...
Baby ducks still do not intend to leave.
One by one, they cross to reach at mama.
But mama nolonger IS.

I see the man on my side
The anger, the tears, the sorrow, the pain.
The things he can no longer hide
"there's no mama coming again..."

Iubirea nu incepe cu "daca..."



Invat nu inseamna "tocesc".

Muncesc
nu inseamna "sunt obsedat".

Cred nu inseamna "sunt credul".

Bogat nu inseamna "zagrcit".

Generos nu inseamna "laudaros"

Umil nu inseamna "cu capul in pamant"
nici "imi dau singur cu palma dupa ceafa"
nici "sunt martir/victima", indiferent daca e cazul sau nu.

A iubi
nu inseamna a fi "fraier"
Nici "cretin", nici "prost", nici "looser".

Hai sa nu ne mai ascundem dupa paravane ieftine!

Driving school

I hear people complaining that some teachers spend the driving-hours by smoking or talking on phone, sleeping or eating. Or by whatever else apart from teaching somebody how to drive.

I started the driving school some time ago.

The school I attend is called PS and it is in Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt and Stuttgart-Mitte:
http://www.ps-fahrschulen.de. My teacher is called Mr. Hägele, a bit older, very nice and friendly teacher. This guy has patience, MAN! (I saw him teaching an asian woman who was hardly speaking German, so when I mean nice and friendly, I know what I say.)
I write this stuff here to recommand this PS driving school -and the teacher especially- to all of you arround Stuttgart, including those who can not manage German language so good.#

By the way, today I passed the theory exam. I recommand the following link for prepairing: www.fahrenlernenmax.de (unfortunatelly i do not know if the questions are available also in English; I just checked German). Here you make (100) tests exactly in the same way you do it at the examination. Questions you may find difficult can be marked and reviewed. Answers have explanations and contain additional sources in the theory book that we all buy at the driving schools. I do't know exactly how much that costs -I got it from my friend who recently passed the exam too- but I suppose it's not more expensive than a set of paper-tests.

Wish you all the best!

La Rascruce, de V. Voiculescu

In suflet, ca pe-o cale pustie, sunt rascruci,
Intretaieri de drumuri salbatice, straine,
Ducand spre patru colturi…Pe care sa apuci?
Meleagurile-s rele si nimeni nu-i cu tine.

Raspantia e moarta, si cati s-au perindat
Nu ti-au lasat o urma, un semn care s-arate
De-a nimerit vreunul pe drumu-adevarat…
Doar cruci fara de slove de-a lungu-s presarate.

Un han, din care nuami peretii-au mai ramas,
Cu hruba parasita, un put far izvoare
Si-u plop uscat alturi, ca o spanzuartoare,
Iti spun ca nu e loc facut pentru popas.

Te simti pierdut departe…rascrucile-s pustii,
si-ai vrea sa fugi din aste paragini blestemate.
…In suflet sunt prapastii: ajungi fara sa stii
Si soavai la o furca de drumuri neumblate.

Raft de raft

Ideea am primit-o de pe net (originalul arata mai bine, dar nu aveam perete destul de mare pentru asa ceva), de la Ionouka (mersi frumos, de la tine invata omul multe!). Raftul a fost facut "cu manuta lui" de "celebrul" designer Pe, frate-meu (autorul vorbei de duh "viata e foarte simpla, da' oamenii si-o complica singuri" hihih). Normal ca prin casa am avut rumegus (inclusiv pe sosetulele lui Pompi) si scule imprastiate pana s-a terminat santierul, da' s-a meritat! Pe, mersi inca o data!
