And so it begins...
19 February 2008
This year I’ve decided not to care about the world’s wickedness.
I’ve decided to not take into consideration any malicious message, any offensive word, any swear-word.
I’ve decided not to be upset about the noting of the jury, about the unkind looks coming from the hallway or the armchairs next to me.
I’ve decided to continue hoping that God has prepared for each one of us a road that we shouldn’t withstand, if we want to be happy.
It was a beautiful weekend. Beautiful because I’ve learned a lot about people and about myself.I felt every instant of the contest like it were passing in slow motion until the moment I sang. That moment on stage was sublime.I’ve managed to pass the first impediment-the small calcium drop fro the begining of the song when I had to stand closer to Ionut – I think it helped on an artistic level.
While singing I thought for a moment how happy I am that life has given me such brilliant moments as this one, on Saturday night. I felt carried away somewhere far, over the twilight of the stars. I felt the memory of The Golden Stag.
I thought of you, those who sat anxious in your chairs and keeping your fingers crossed for me. I intended to wink at you, but then I told myself that maybe you wouldn’t understand why I did it.
The scene moment passed and the results moment came.
They asked me why I was laughing... Whynot? Why not be happy for being there?
I want to confess that I don’t like to watch my own performances. I also feel the need to tel you that I always go back to the forum and read your comments, and if you like what you see, I’m very glad. That’s most important for me.
I would like to tell you that I’m one of the happiest people because I have you.
Thank you.
