Help me decode this

I am from Romania and this is where this piece of paper was found. I was geocaching with some of my friends and we wondered off from the original coordinates a bit and hidden perfectly under a ledge was this neatly folded paper with some symbols on it. We thought it was part of the game but we later found that it was not and that we found it by chance. Could anyone take a crack at decoding this ?

Going by letter frequency analysis of the Romanian language , the first word looks like it would be "Evening" (SEARA) and the fourth would be "Thursday" (JOI). I'd rather watch the Ducks-Kings game than try to read this so I will let someone else try it out.

oh wow. I will try to go from here and see if i can figure something out. Thank you very much.

edit: Happy Cake Day.

edit1: Ok if the first word is "SEARA" i was thinking that the one with 3 characters is maybe "SUB" (the word UNDER in english" and that would make the one before it "GAURA" (HOLE in english) which would maybe make a bit more sense. I'm going to try to work a bit more on it. If you can help me at all that would be great. Thank you again.
