Every single one of us, in its own, is a little hero: living on your own in a different country is not really easy specially the first days. But nevertheless there have been some special person that with their "social skills" or beauty or just friendship have created a group of people around them. According to my definition these are the leaders (and of course I knew them all!). The problem is that I am writing this page on my own and I don't know many stories from the TEITH and I am sure I don't know also all of the residence people so I couldn't put all of the leaders here... Get a look also at this whole page or just follow one of the links : Carlo
& Maurizio
were two Italian guys from the university of Pescara and
they were erasmus in the Aristotelio. As soon as they got in
touch with Greece (European Language Program for erasmus
in Greece) they started making "damages" to the image
of the Italians abroad offering free "spaghetti dinners" in
the hearth of the night, being friendly with everybody and
hanging out till late...
This
Portuguese girl is completely crazy. It doesn't matter the
time, it doesn't matter the weather and it doesn't matter if
she should study or not, she's always on the move. She's
always talking, she looks like she never needs sleep and
worse of all, she looks like nobody can stop her.
Am
I narcissist or not? Of course I am. And a lot more than
other people can expect of me. I like to organize things. I
like when everything works just like expected and I like
to be the boss, 'cause it's good to be the boss. And
that's why I made up all of this. (with the co-operation of Luana from Bulgaria) Step #1 Know the girl. Do not
reveal your intention to pick her up. Get ready for steps #2 and #3.
Step #2. This step has to be made
very quickly: LIFT THE GIRL! Be careful to start by lifting the
legs otherwise she can run away...
Step #3 Et voilà: The
girl has been picked up. You can keep this position
until you feel that your back is not standing
anymore the weight. Repeat as much as you
want.
SURGEON'S GENERAL WARNING : Picking up girls weighting too much can provoke serious health injuries. Anyway picking up too many girls does not cause cancer. A very
interesting specimen: this young Italian boy came to Greece
without knowing a single word in English. He had to rely on
improvisation and on body language in order to let the most
people understand him. Nevertheless in a few days he was
already one of the most popular people of the residence and
after some month he was raised to the level of myth just
like Maurizio and Carlo.
Hilda & Mandy were two nice erasmus from the 4° floor of the Vassilissis Olgas residence. They haven't been leaders in the common accept ion of the word but they were really friend with everybody. In the end they organized a terrific party in the Residence that brought them to this page.
The final acknowledgement has to go to this Spanish guy. He was the soul of the first semester nights. A good entertainer with a natural ability for bongos and guitar. Several dinners on the 7th floor were followed by David's exhibition. He also has been initially into the organization of parties and it was him to propose the Abya Yala as place for parties.
