“Dearest Gentle Reader!”

Don’t worry, I will not start and never be able to copy the one and only Lady Wistledown, but this letter is addressed directly to you. (Plus I am obsessed with The Bridgertons at the moment.🤣) However, this isn’t the cause I remained silent for this long. I had to make many decisions during the past few months, including whether I wish to continue this blog. 

This blog was born because I always wanted to write a blog and continued since I moved back to Hungary to help me keep my English. But this became an update page for the lazy people around me. Many people around me started to ask when I created an update because since I moved home they know less about me than when I lived in London, simply because I posted more while I was back there. And to be honest that’s when I realised that I became a “people pleaser” again. I forget to read and use my post about this subject. ( Well, we learn until we die, I guess. 😅)

Since I started my life at home, unconsciously I came back to my old habits and old patterns which are attached to this country and the life I lived 11 years ago before I stepped foot on British soil. Even most of the people around me think that those years have not made any marks on me or worse, they simply ignore the fact that London changed me a lot, the truth is that I am not the same 23-year-old girl who left back then. So no, I will not pretend that I am she. Some things will never change such as the fact that I will always be a village girl, who speaks too much, laughs loudly and is way too sentimental, but I grow up now. And that’s something that everyone must accept. Of course, this was my fault entirely, I let them deal with me as if nothing happened in the past few years.

I decided to write in Hungarian too because I had enough of the fact that my friends asked me to do so. But honestly, I never wanted to write in my mother tongue. I wanted to improve my English when I started. This blog as I mentioned in one of my first posts is not for you who read it, it is for me who write it. Of course, I intend to help as many people as possible via my stories, and if you make an effort to read them, may or may not you get something. 

So no, I will not write in Hungarian in the future, because if you care about what is in this, you can make a small effort and use the Google Translator. And I post when I feel I have time and energy, but not when you want me to. This site will not be an update page for all the lazy ones. I understand it is easier to read what is going on in my life instead of calling, texting, messaging or contacting me in any other form of communication. I still want to help and that is still my mission with this blog, but with my own rules. I do not wish to check the stats that how many people read what I said or constantly wait for some feedback, so I feel approved, loved and precious. My psychology studies reminded me of something. Especially Maslow’s hierarchy of needs pyramid. Maslow argued that survival needs must be satisfied before the individual can satisfy the higher needs. He said we first must satisfy the need for love and belonging or safety before we can do anything with self-actualization. Well, the only problem is that we think (most of the time we even strongly believe) that these needs can be satisfied only externally. I wanted to be loved and feel to belong so I bent my other needs and personality to fit in. And of course, the biggest lie: “ I do not want to hurt anyone.” Let me tell you something, You cannot hurt anyone and no one can hurt you, just like no one able to make you happy or loved, if you do not let them. Every level of the pyramid can and should be satisfied inside of you first and then, you can attract the external too.

I decided to live my life, write my blog and organise my time how it fits ME. If you want to be part of my journey I am so happy and you are more than welcome to read my words and hopefully get some help or at least laugh a bit about my silliness. You can write to me anytime on any platform, but I do not continue to write just for you, Dearest Gentle Reader. Those of you who are my friends or family members, I love you so much and without your support, I would be lost for sure, but if I do not post in 2 months and you want to know what is going on in my life because you care about me, please grab your “very” smart phones and drop a message, anytime. 😘

I know it wasn’t the usual Silly SpirtFiry post, but behind this screen, I am a human too. And as I always telling you: Don’t have to be always strong to be a Hero.😘 

XOXO,

Krisz😘

P.S.: I hope, I will be back soon with some funny content about the Life of a Single in Hungary…trust me it matters the country and the city regarding this subject.😅 Love you all!!!

The Beginning

Hello Guys,

I am Kris (Krisztina and most of you know me) and I am from Hungary. Before I start to tell you about London, I think it is important to tell you about where I come from.
Once upon a time… yes, a princess was born in South Hungary, in a really small town. (I know, absolutely typical and nothing really interesting 🤷‍♀️)On the day when I was born my parents bought a plot in a small village, where they started to build our family home. When I was 2,5 finally the house was ready to move in and my very first memory is that my parents let me choose my room.
I had an amazing childhood and I am so grateful for everything I have got from my family. My parents were never rich people, but they gave me and my brother everything they could and even sometimes more. Yes, I have a “little” brother who is 4.5 yeras younger than me and I am so happy that I have a sibling (at least , now I am happy about him.😉). Of course, we have had difficulties when we were kids, but this is absolutely normal. Who doesn’t have fights with her/his siblings, seriously?
I was lucky enough to know all my grandparents and we had really strong connections with all of them. Funny to see how my pride (and many other qualities) came from my dad’s mother and my way too big mouth (and many others) came from my mom’s mother.I am a really good mix of them.
My village is small, around 1000 people live in it, but it was a wonderful place to grow up. I used to go to the Kindergarten and Primary school too in this village. I had great teachers and so many friends. I am lucky to have a lot of good memories from my childhood. My parents and my family loved me, I have got lots of love from friends, teachers, people and still I have when I am going home, from time to time.
Obviously ,later on I went to High School, which was in a small town, not so far from my village and those were the best years of my life. The college and all the people there shaped me and helped me to become a young adult. Lovely atmosphere in a beautiful place, next to one of the biggest rivers in Hungary, so many parties, friends, first loves, first break ups (well, a Princess need a real Prince and cannot kiss all the frogs), smiles, and lovely teachers who always tried to guide us, but also leave us to find our own ways. I will always be grateful for those years and those people.
Since I remember, I was always hyperactive and I had that feeling that I have to do something, not just be and live the life like others. I always wanted to create, help, be there for others.
So after High School I have got one of the biggest opportunities in my life, because my village’s notary gave me the chance to become a part of that amazing team. I was only 19 years old when I started there and I was almost 23 when I left. He and the team teach me a lot and I have got a second family. I also can thank him for being one of my best friends too. Lots of nice times, laughs, happiness, also like in every “family” were hard days too, but we took care of each other and I loved to work there. I will always be grateful for those years. From him came one of my favorite quote too (he gave me on the day I left them to go to London):

“The longest journey begins with a single step.”

So why did I leave? Why have I decided to move to London and leave all my life behind? Why does someone just pack and leave?
Well, I think this will be another day’s story, but I promise I will continue. I hope you will be with me. 😉

Love you all. 😘

Kris
P.S.: To my readers from other countries, Budapest is a lovely place and a must to see, but if you have a chance, come a bit south and you can see so many nice places too. (Lake Balaton, Pécs, Szigetvár, Barcs, Kaposvár etc.- these are “my area”, but you can find other lovely places in Hungary, trust me. 😉)
