2025
December 31, 2025
2025 was a total whirlwind. It kicked off with the high-stakes finale of senior year, where I wrapped up my baccalaureate and secured university admission with the top grade. I am incredibly grateful for the friends who were by my side and the countless memories we built during those final months.
The latter half of the year brought a major transition: moving to Cluj-Napoca to start a new chapter. University has been an excellent fit, and diving into AI and Computer Science feels like exactly the right path. I have loved building a new network of connections here while keeping my long-term friendships stronger than ever. During this time, I also took a trip to Madrid; it is an incredible city with a culture I really connected with, and it is definitely a place I could see myself living one day.
However, one of the most defining shifts of the year was discovering running. It is a demanding, "crazy" sport to say the least, but it has completely transformed my routine. Beyond just maintaining a healthy lifestyle, running has taught me how to push past my own limits and find a new level of discipline.
Looking back, I am deeply grateful for every milestone and every mile covered. I am heading into the next year with more momentum than ever.
