I’ll probably work and study for my exams…                                    But I’m not missing anything, since we don’t celebrate Memorial Day weekend…

In the spring/summer, I can hear lots of birds.                                 And they’re making quite a noise!

Rest of the year, it’s very silent outside my windows.

I must say I’ve really developed my leadership skills at work the last coupple of years. I work with a lot of young people, and there are always new people being employed, and so there is a lot of people who’s both uncertain of themselves and of their job. And in a lot of situations, they want someone to tell them what they can and can not do. Especially if something goes wrong, then no one wants to make a decision in case it might be a wrong one.  

In situations like that, I’ve learned that when you take charge like it’s the most natural thing in the world, and make your decisions with certainty, people listen. If you’re taking the responsibility as a natural thing, most people will see it as natural that you’re in charge, and that you know what you’re doing… Of course you have to know your job and make decisions you can stand by, or else it’s just bad leadership!

But the most important thing I’ve ever learned about leadership is: What ever the problem is, if no one steps up and take charge, things can only get worse!

Back home where I grew up, we’re surrounded by huge mountains. And when the weather is good, they’re the most beautiful thing ever seen, but when it’s raining or snowing, you risk a rain of stone from above…

So the closest thing to a natural disaster I’ve ever seen, was when the rain brought down huge masses of stone and stoneblocks, and crushed the road completely. Everyone had to travel by boat for mounths later. But luckily no one got hurt, and we’re now finally getting a tunnel!

If there’s any natural disaster I really fear, it would be fires. I find anything burning out of control a dangerous disaster!
