At Night

London Calling, that's the song that's been running through my head in the last couple of days, and I wasn't even following the Olympic games. But I guess my subconscious was singing.

I don't like events at this magnitude. I enjoy them and I thing the concept has a lot of potential and does contribute to the unification af people around the world. But it also epitomizes what's wrong in the western culture so sharply. Chasing the gold, disrespecting others, excessive patriotism, racism, and I haven't started talking about the games themselves! And economically - all the state resources are put into these games, ignoring from internal problems, just like what happened in Beijing (child labor) and Greece (the economic downfall that the Olympics  in 2004 set off).

I don't know how to explain it but whenever I think about the Olympic games, I get moody. So, in light of the Olympic games, I've attached some spooky pics from last week. At night all the fears come out. And our shame.

London calling to the faraway towns

Now war is declared, and battle come down
London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard, you boys and girls
London calling, now don't look to us
Phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Meltdown expected, the wheat is growing thin
Engines stop running, but I have no fear
'Cause London is drowning, and I live by the river

London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it, brother, you can go it alone
London calling to the zombies of death
Quit holding out, and draw another breath
London calling, and I don't wanna shout
But while we were talking, I saw you nodding out
London calling, see we ain't got no high
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Engines stop running, the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear error, but I have no fear
'Cause London is drowning, and I live by the river

Now get this

London calling, yes, I was there, too
An' you know what they said? Well, some of it was true!
London calling at the top of the dial
After all this, won't you give me a smile?
London calling

Retro Feel

I'm in a good mood. In spite of the summer - the weather is nice, I had a good say at work and yesterday I even started to check the exams, so I'm right on schedule. Oh yeah - and I'm more in love than ever :).. so, no wonder I was in the mood for a photoshoot.
I hereby present to you the improvised pics, with a retro effect to mix it up and a cool skirt that my sis bought me at H&M a few months ago and only now I'm starting to take advantage of it.
Enjoy, and have a great week! Make it great! Make it work! ;)

All my fears Couldn't drag me Away

So, I'm writing again, playing again and shooting again.. It must mean the exams are over and freedom is near.
I've gone through so much in the past month that I don't even know where to start. So I won't. Instead I'll focus on the up and coming events and the future - My career that's starting to crystallize in front of me, my amazing partner and lover that I definitely see in amy future that I imagine, our trip to Madrid at the end of Aug, My independence and self-fulfillment and the deepening of my all relationships, including with my family and friends.
I can't wait for the future to come, and I'm gonna live every moment if it.

Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses couldn't drag me away

I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or off stage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses couldn't drag me away
I know I've dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken tears must be cried
Let's do some living after we die
Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses we'll ride them someday
Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses we'll ride them someday

photography

Lot's of updates. Sadly - no time to do that due to the fact that I'm at the peak of my final exams for this year.
So - here's a reminder of how beautiful and colorful the world can be, and how much I love photography, my camera and its lovely effects that highlight colors.
:)

my love

I wrote this song a couple of months ago, and it's my first love song that I'm actually proud of. Dedicated to my love, accompanied by a shoot of the flowers he gave me the night of the Ball at the faculty last week. There's no way to describe how happy he makes me feel other than to sing about it.. So enjoy.

My love, my darling you
I can't forget about last night
though I'll be locked in chains, beaten,
it will burn my insides with light

You're my sanity, I breathe you
And you fill my lungs fresh air,
With your smile, your look
Your touch - you cast away despair...

We've already broken the rules
I wanna break with you some more
knowing you're on my side always,
I have something to look for

Hug me like saying you'll never leave,
The sunlight will peep through the curtains
As the only indicator for time and space,
Then it will sigh disappointed and let the night fall again.
And we will still be looking at each other smiling,
Like knowing a secret no-one knows -
I love you, and I need you
and we will stay like that - till the world explodes.
