Life is nice, life is fantastic:
- Well done.
- Good job.
- Your commitment and dedication is visible.
- I like the way you work.
- Don't worry, even me, I do make mistakes...
- Don't worry, nobody will blame you...you are just an intern
Ok, ok, of course I know, I know that I am just an intern, so I do not have that much responsibility...
But still, it is me...
I am like this... if I do something I want to do it perfectly.
I can not accept mistakes.
And even if I know that is not my fault, that there is sth I can not change, because the guy who worked before me, he did it...still... it is our team's fault, so it is my fault...
And I am worried...and stressed...
Anyways, it is just me.
This period will be over soon, than I can take it a bit easier...
(Heeey....it was me who asked more tasks from the boss...so stop complaining...)
But, Murphy's Law:
- I am not going to Grenoble, to my romantic chataue...
There is a French strike now going on...so no train is available...or at least not for business trip...
Anyways, next time! :D

Do-It photos
Here are some of the photos from the conference: Do-It
LC Geneva
Can you believe we were around 50 people?
Big LC...cool people... :)
Official Dinner on Saturday with the Geneva -interns
Anthony (Ireland), Emilia (Spain), Me (Hungary) ;), Ikran (Sweden), Zuzana (Czechia) & Ahmed (Egypt)
With Emilia posing for Anthony... ;)
With our well prepared masks...Emilia, Ikran, Zuzana & me
No, seriously, we spent like 2 days to make our masks... :)
Mine is pretty simple...and maybe masculine a little bit...
The whole weekend... it was snowing!!! :)))
So, we played snowfighting:
Me, the poor, naive girl went to help my friend...
And my "friend" was tricky a little bit:
But seriously, the snow was great:
Good night, swiss dreams... ;)

Romantic chateau in France
I am going to a business trip with Peter to France.
We got a new boss and he is based in Grenoble.
It is amazing, how everything is well-organized.
We had to register to an intern site, where they asked our preferences.
What kind of room do you want to stay: King :), Double, Twin or Don't Care, Smoking, non-smoking, etc.
What kind of car do we want:
as default it was set up: automatic gears... :)
For flying: what kind of food do we like: There were like 15 different opportunity: low-calorie, low-fat, vegetarian, (all kind of vegetarian), Chinese, Mediterranean, or Regular... :D
And the hotel, where we reserved our places is surrounded in the mountains, it is a castle, very romantic. :)
Or at least, that's what I can see from the photos... :)))
And if we are already in France, we will look around in Grenoble and also in Lyon... :)
If Orsi will have time/space for us... :D
So it means that I won't be here on Friday... oohhh... :S
now I can go and talk to my "almost-never-seen" flat mates.
I am looking forward to the Chateau trip. :)

DO-IT, 2007. 11. 7-9.
Aiesec Switzerland had its 2nd national/international conference this year. Do-It is basically for everybody!!!
For aiesecers in Hungary: One of the best place to go to an international conference is to go to a swiss one. It is very very international, professional, well- organized...
Just to see: In LC Geneva only 5 people out of 63 are "only Swiss". Only means 100% swiss. Everybody else is half of something, or mixture... Great to feel/see that.
But we had a kind of interesting conversation...you have to be very careful with the diversity...
For example if a black guy says after the question: Where are you from? that he is from CH, you never never ask: Ok, ok, but where are you seriously form??? Just because he is black...
About the aiesec content:
They had several agenda for several group of people: newie, leaders, TTT, goldie, returnee, intern...
And Dey was there...He was the chair.
Once he was also a chair at a Hungarian conference, Spring Planning, or something...
You know, the guy from NZ MCP, than Africa GN coordinator, and also PAI... So...great, great guy...
Well..actually he was a little bit disappointing...
Somehow he was not that motivating...at least for me... and also for the last morning plenary he couldn't wake up...
COMMEON!! Former PAI!!!
Ok, it happens, great party...but not to the CHAIR...who was a former PAI!!!
Idiot!!!
For interns, the track was not that well organized...I mean I got the point that we are adults, we are coming there for partying, but not just for that.
We want to get to know our LC, and also sth about Switzerland, funny habits to prove that the swiss people are not that boring... :), other interns, stories about work, hints & tips for the newcomer interns, etc.
Ok, we were not bored, because:
IT WAS SNOWING!!!!
The mountains, the trees, the small streets... it was amazing... :)))
Beautiful!!! :)
As I don't have any camera, I have to wait till the others put their photos on Facebook... :)
With Ikran and Emilia we went crazy... :)
It is PICTURETIME!!! :)))
"Follow the river, river, river...
TO GENEVAAA..."
(because basically the river in Fiesch will become once the Lake Geneva...)
So we were all the time singing this 2 lines... :D
And of course we were playing snowfighting... :)
We also had Masked ball party on Saturday after Official Dinner. :)
Everybody in nice clothes... :)))
It was great!!!
Photos later... :)))
So, it was good.
I am again very sorry for missing the Global Village...Maybe next time I will go earlier to the conference...just to represent/present Hungary. :)
On Sunday we played with the other interns some drinking games...without alcohol, but still... :)
For example "Bumm"... but instead of "Bumm", everybody had to say any word which comes to his/her mind...It is a cool game, you can get to know what the others are thinking about...or maybe not, as on Sunday everybody is very tired. :)
And...we also played the "Alphabet" ... it is like counting, but with words...
So, I try to explain. The first person has to say a word starting with A, the next one with B, etc till Z, than starts again... and if somebody says an animal, the order changed..the circle goes to other way around...
It sounds easy...but commeonn!!! :)))
And, the funniest was, we had a native english speaker from the US.... she always said a word that nobody understood!!! :DDDD
Anyways, crazy people!!! :)
And also some very very interesting conversation about cultural differences, love, men-women relationships... seriously, challenging my worldview! :)
And also there was a session about the internships, what is the value added in an aiesec internship... :)
So, it was a wonderful weekend!!!
Not just because the "cute indians" had a bottle of JAGER!!!
:))))
Now I go and chase some photos... ;)

Just in a rush...
Tomorrow after work I am leaving to a conference...to an aiesec conference, to DO-IT.
(FYI: This post contains strange abbreviations for those who are not familiar with AIESEC...)
Strange feeling.
I don't know why I am fighting against @ all the time. Aiesec had/has an important role in my life.
And still...inside me..it is a fight...
I know that it is a huge motivation, and everybody is going there to really feel, Yes, this is why I am working like hell every day...this is why I sacrificed sth...
(ok, can you see....maybe my point of view is wrong...completely... it is not about sacrifice sth... It's up to you!
And this motivation part should be shown to the newies...
BUT.... It 's me... who is always making things more and more complicated...
Anyways, now I don't want to go in deeper...maybe it is better if I don't think...just let it go...and we will see....
I have a mask for the party...But I so miss you, Sütty and your creativity.... :DDD
Seriously!!! :)
so, see you guys on monday... or sunday evening..hiopefully full of energy and hopes and plans and motivation... that is usually what the conferences used to give me... and of course i meet always cool people!!!

HP Product Day
On Monday we had the PSG and IPG Product Day in the office...
Seriously...it was amazing!!!
This event was about our products, it was an exhibition, we got the chance to see almost all our new products, lap tops, printers, touch sensitive screens, new photo printers, huge lap tops, or small ones, the ones those screen can be moved, revolvable screens.. or whatever it is called... :)
There was a quiz as well... I knew all the answers... ;) NOT...but hope i will win sth...don't need to be big one, a camera would be enough... :D
And also I managaed to see our new table.
It is really a table, designed for living room... but the top of the table is basically a huge touch sensitive screen....so the whole table itself is 1 giant computer...the legs of the table consist of 6 computer... :)
Anyways, the screen is awsome!!!
It is not that perfect and welldesgined...yet...you can choose a photo, frame it, drag the size, choose music...
Ok, it is true that Microsoft has already developed that kind of table 1 year ago or so... :)
They use it New Yor or Las Vegas or somewhere in the US in bars...
You can order from the table, pick up your drink form the menu simply just touching the table... cool... :)
21th century! :)
Amazing!
On the other side it was great to see what are exactly our products that I should analyze... Shame on me..and not just me...but we discussed it with my colleagues too that we do not really know about our products...just that it is which PL, which lib item goes to which metric description, etc.
But here is the real business thing.. :)
Later on, in December there will be an HP Employee Xmas shopping day too... so, just let me know about your wishes.. :)
Hope the wheel of luck will help me to win sth there too... ;)
Please let me share with you one of our huge marketing campaign running now...

If you really want something...
I can not believe I missed the friday party...
Everything started...well...when exactly?
Maybe 2 weeks ago, when I was doing nothing just working every day till the office closes???
When I was not listening to my boss, saying that this small cold could be a virus, ro sth serious???
But you know me..it is just clod...nothing...i drink tea and it will be over...well...apparently not...
So shame on me...
I went through the whole week, managed to lead a meeting, deliver everything before the deadline...it was so exciting...and yes...my battery is not 100%...
:((
So bad...
So on friday my boss sent me home...how could he do that?
anyways, probably he was right...i needed to relax...relax a lot...basically today i couldn't get out of my bed...serioulsy... i ate only tonight...at 22...before i couldn't handle anything...
hope by monday i will recover...
The only thing I regret...is the friday night.. i was so looking forward to meet the crazy dancing girls...
:(((
Anyways, i will check the photos...
:(
and next week we have do-it...the conference... :)
cool!!!
