Another January, another fair...and boom!!! All sorts of ideas! :)
It's been quite a tough period at the shop, of course Christmas doesn't count, but before..and now after, I'm really asking myself what to do next.
Unfortunately, the Romanian market for selling house deco is not at its best. With complete sadness, I've seen that another shop in Bucharest decided to close and keep the online shop only. That's totally understandable, having a shop ain't easy. There are days, like today, when you pretty much sell nothing. And then you start asking all sorts of questions: maybe the address is not good, maybe I don't have the right products, and maybe baby...what if. And so on.

The roller coaster
When I started the shop I think I was way to deep in my bubble :) I just didn't know in what I was just launching myself, I had no clue how challenging this will turn up.
But here I am, in 2015. Been trying to write some resolutions for this year, and still planning to do. The end of the year was so eventful. I've learned my lesson... Since this roller coaster ride started, I've learned that from A to B are many loops and turns, and the situation is usually twisted. But always enjoying the ride. That's the only trick we must learn...to enjoy the ride. If your intention has been set, if you do everything straight from the heart, you just have to adapt..because things always come along nicely. We must have patience.

Running
Well, there are some moments in life, or at least in mine, when I need to run. Run away, that's it. From a situation, from a moment in life, from a place or from someone's life. I do it. I did it recently, and while running was realising that I did it again. Was it good, was it bad? It is always good, because only good can be. There is always something calling you, something you have to learn, something you have to experience.
I've been running in and out most of my life, not one to stay still. But in this whole craziness of mine, I have discovered the best of me. And there is a looot more to discover. I feel this a lot lately. I feel a mixture of "I'm doing the right thing" & "I can do/be more". I know where I want to be, but I must give things time. ANd this whole time thing is the one that messes things up. We need timelines, but we don't like them, our vibe is not time related. You get the vibe, everything is perfect synchronicity and then *BANG* another "slow roller coaster" of vibes and feelings. You accept, get lost and accept again. You run, maybe. And then come back, differently.
So yes, in my super busy pre-Christmas time preparation, my timeline of things followed their own timelines. Nothing I could do to control, and I accepted that I had 2 options: freak out, respect the timeline or chill out, everything happens when it is supposed to happen. But then, in your chill out waiting vibe you start thinking too much. You want things to happen. So, I ran.

What's cooking....princess?
Well, I must definitely create an "entrepreneurship" category on this blog! My dream that I will write about healthy recipes, alternative life style and similar stuff is put on pause a bit :))
My life at this point sums up to healthy take aways, crazy sleep hours and long working days. And you know what? I love it this way. Maybe this is what this should be all about.
Now that the Christmas is coming (yes, I know, I keep on repeating that since September) everything happens really quick. Last weekend me and my mom have been decorating the shop....for 3 days! And there are still stuff to do in here... It is never ending, honestly. I didn't even get the chance to put the products on the website, and now when I checked ...I realised that the Halloween banner is still up on the slide. Argh!
I love being busy with interesting stuff. And last week, besides my never ending Christmas plans, I helped my mom with a pitch for her events company. Well, the whole concept was amazing... All about the future. We created a hand made vortex tunel, 3D projections and super crazy lights show. I loved it.
Also, at TMT Finance (the job for which I went to Warsaw) I have an event in exactly 10days - TMT Finance World Congress. Luckily I'm not going to London this time. And I say luckily, because there's something BIG "cooking" in Clou's "kitchen"
Until everything comes all together, follow my instagram, you know what they say: a picture is worth a 1000 words (or something like that). So keep an eye there, and hopefully at one point my blog posts will be more often.
Lots of love,
Roxana

To sum it up.
In order to write well, you have to write what you know, and this is what i know: good things require time, beautiful things dont ask for attention. change is coming. the future is coming on. just long time magic. Șutul în cur si pasul înainte. must trust timing.

Le fantastic!
Oh my, what a week I had! I'm so happy to see that everything comes together after a looot of work.
One of this week's achievements is that I'm getting closer to the moment when I'm going to launch the English version of the website! Whoop, whoop! :) I can finally ship to all of you! :D I really hope this will be on time for Christmas.
Speaking of Christmas, I know most you don't even started to think about it, but I honestly had enough already. This week I've been working with some of my fabulous friends and we organised a very nice photo shooting. I'm so grateful for working with such amazing people! I can't wait to share the results with you!!
Today is my mom's birthday, hooray! She is such a fantastic (crazy) woman.... I love her so much!
Wishing you all a super happy weekend...and until then here's a sneak peek from this week's photo shooting!

Warsaw Feelings
I really wonder when this whole blogging thing is going to become a habit. I wonder if other bloggers feel the same....you need time to write or should I simply write just stuff & things?
Well, it's been a while since I haven't shared "the story of my life" here and I can say that a lot of things happened. And are happening. And will happen.
First of all, my trip to Warsaw was F.A.N.T.A.S.T.I.C. It pretty much had a bit of everything. I got there on Sunday afternoon, the sky was crystal deep blue and as soon as I reached the hotel, I literally dropped my bags and left to go sightseeing.
