Attempt no. 2 : my neighbour (part 2)

 Happiness only real when shared” is a sentence written by Christopher McCandless, before passing away in the Alaskan wilderness in April 1992 (have you seen the movie "Into the wild" directed by Sean Penn? that story..).

 Happiness only real when shared” ... is it true? what do you think about it?


I have thought about it for a long time. I believe that we can find happiness into ourselves. However, yes, I think that our happiness is more real and "tasty" if shared.  


For this reason this below has been my second attempt: 




Yesss!! It's me in the photo together with one of my best friends!!


So.. next step, as for attempt no.1, has been to hang it on the bulletin board of the building I live in, and wait for my neighbour reaction. 

To be honest, it hasn't been as successful as the first attempt. I think it is because it was too similar, no surprise effect no more. However, after 2-3 days, all smiles were taken, and I am still very happy about it!! 

Thinking about something different next time. I hang in there, you bet! ^_^

Attempt no. 1 : my neighbour


It's about ten months I am living in this building in Dublin. It's a nice place and sometimes I meet my neighbour when I take the lift, check my mailbox. But it's all. The usual "Hi, how are you", "Thanks", "Sorry". Nothing more, I don't even know a name. It's not good but.. where could I start from?


So yesterday afternoon I prepared this:



Then, late at night like a ninja, I went at the ground floor, at the bulletin board  just beside the main entrance and I hanged it there.
If just one person will smile reading my announce, I thought, it would be a success.

The morning after, when I went downstairs I felt so surprised and happy finding this:


And this at 7pm, before going out with some friends:


I was completely amazed. A big success, more than expected! 
I still feel so glad I have such great neighbour, and I feel more close to them now.

However, I received the biggest gift ever when I came back home around midnight. Turning my key to open the main gate I found two messages waiting for me:



I don't know who wrote these messages, but thank you so much. Thank you. <3
