What did I learned at a workshop held this week end at Orange Concept Store?

Olivian BREDA — Mon, 25 May 2009 16:56:27 +0000

This week-end I took part to a public speaking seminar. For more details on the seminar, see this blog post: “How would I make a presentation on the structure of a web site regarding keywords?”

What did I take home?
1. I should avoid moving my legs that much at a presentation (stand still for once);
2. I should work on the way in which I watch my audience (I have a tendency to only look at a few persons);
3. A presentation with a clear structure: introduction, contents, ending, is easier to follow (mine didn’t really follow this).

A milestone in my health development

Olivian BREDA — Thu, 21 May 2009 06:01:46 +0000

I recently found out great news about my health: zero major problems on all the areas. No problems found via a basic diagnostic I took (blood, urine, excrements). I won’t get into too much detail, it’s a diagnosis offered for free in Romania each year for a citizen, and I get to see some basic results about my health. This is the very first time I get zero problems on all aspects (I got a bad one two years, ago, bad one on other thing an year ago, and so on).

Not this year. This year: perfect! I feel great about this.

After putting effort into living healthy (from eating to sports, from sleeping to having a certain posture), this is a very promising result. I feel like saying: Ya-hoo!

How much of me is of Romanian origins?

Olivian BREDA — Sun, 10 May 2009 11:34:58 +0000

Last week I was at a conference at National Peasant’s Museum. Costi ROGOZANU put a question to the audience that really struck me: How much of you is really Romanian? How many of the things that define you come from Romania? How do you spend your time in a Romanian-specific way? How much of the music you listen to, of the books you read, of the web sites you visit are from Romania? I think that the question was a mere discovery-inducing one, it meant nothing on love-your-country idea (he didn’t specifically ask us to be patriots, he just put an intriguing question to think about).
