Life definitions...

  • Life is ia a circle...Once you think it's over it starts again and you have to be ready to deal with every new start..
  • Life is a funhouse.The clowns are happy but they can also be scary.Funhouses are fun and entertaining places but also creepy. -Pink-
  • Life is a book.There are happy and sad chapters inside it that even if we want to,we can't erase them...
  • Life is like sex.If you want to enjoy it don't get stressed...
  • Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...It's about learning how to dance in the rain...
  • Life is a train that runs in the tracks of destiny...
  • Life is a roller-coaster.You can either scream every time you hit a bump or you can throw your hands in the air and enjoy it...
  • Life is a play that does not allow testing.So sing,cry,dance,laugh and live intensely before the curtain closes and the show ends with no applause...


Oh and Merry Christmas everyone!!May your hands get cold and may there be one person to keep them warm afterwords...:)

All yours...

Decorating the house for Christmas...

So,Christmas are actually coming at the end of the week and I'm just soooooooo excited!!!Of course we've decorated our house for Christmas about a week ago and now it's filled with the magic coming out of the Christmas tree and the candles...

Well,I decided to share with you my home's Christmas magic...:)

Little snowman
I love this snowman...It actually reminds me of a meat-ball...I don't know why and I know that it's weird but it seems like one to me....

Paper cut Tree
This is a little tree that I've made with my aunt...

Stair's Santa Claus
Isn't it adorable???I really like it and it's like everytime I go upstairs(or coming downstairs) I see it and it makes me happy for an unexplained reason...

All Santa Clauses
Thes are all the Santa Clauses I've managed to gather within my 16 years of my life...Some are from chocolate boxes,some from little presents we used to take when we were at primary school and generally they represent some of the best Christmas of my life...

Christmas Fairy
I really love this one!!It's actually the best thing we have on our Christmas tree...Since we've bought it it's like she's travelling me to places where there is magic and elves and magic creatures...A little childish I know,but it's so true...

So,these are some of the decoratings we've put in our house..I know that I'm not used to writing these kind of posts but I'll make up next time...Until then don't forget to sprinkle the Christmas dust all over yourself and try to look at things positively...

All yours...

Dealing with sadness...

I think almost everyone is afraid of the word sadness...It's like its got something hidden,something deeper,something darker...Maybe it's got,but this word's meaning is given by us...And it's ok not to feel well sometimes but we shouldn't actually let this bring us down....So next time you feel like you're falling from your blue sky you can do one of these,in order to fly back again...:)

Making a cup of tea...That's the first thing I do whenever I feel sad...It's just like every problem or worry dissappears from the first sip of tea...So,a cup of tea with just a little spoon of honey and everything clears off...

Calling my friends...They are there for you at times like this and if they don't even bother talking to you then they are not your real friends...Search for those who are going to tell you that everything's gonna be alright and that will remind you how special you are...

Listening to songs...Ok,I must admit that the songs I usually listen to aren't "happy" ones but at least they make you forget...Combining our voice with the voice of the singer and letting every sentiment you feel apear in the way you sing...Thanks Chad(Kroeger) for all these times your magic voice has made me feel alright...

Expressing yourself...It doesn't work with everyone,but it does for me...Whenever something's wrong and I feel the need to express it I start writing,not blogging,just writing,in a diary or just random notes...It feels great!!Especially this time that I'm working on something it really helps to write more and with more passion of course,cause things are different when you live them...

Dancing....It works fine for me..of course it's not the same for everyone but try it once...Put on a song that "talks" about your situation and start dancing inside your room...makes all the stress go out and leaves you with a full filling feeling...

Reading a text that makes you smile...It's hard to find a text,a book or generally something that makes you laught everytime your read it...I'm soooooooo glad I've discovered maitena and her comics...I just love her and find everything she writes hillarious...

Cooking or creating...As I usually say it's a way of filling the gaps of your soul..Some people like creating jewels or painting or making graffity...Well cooking is for me..Mostly making candy..It is just something that makes me reaaaaaally happy,especially when my sweets turn out the way they are supposed to be and people who taste them like them...

Well,I'm sure that there are millions of ways to stop being sad,but these ones work better with me...Everytime I feel like everything's wrong and that I can't see anything around except from vague images,a little box opens inside my head and reminds me of those little ways of making myself happy...And remember,if anyone tries to make you fall it only means that you are above them...As for smiling,it's cheap medicine,so use it as much as you can,unless you want to live an unhappy life...

So every single one of you should wear his/her brightest smile right now...cause everything is temporary....everything can be defeated if you feel like fighting...everything's in your mind...even the word sadness might have a better meaning if you match it with being in a situation where you can think about what has happened...and remember...sometimes stand in front of the mirror and ask yourself "where are we now??"...everything will make perfect sense...

All yours...

Once upon a December....

Have a great month!!!!
So,here comes December for one more time...The truth is that I've always been very excited about this month mostly because of Christmas...But this year,I'm not so sure..It's like something is keeping me down...

This month,last year we started a new relationship that didn't end as I expected and I know that I shouldn't be writting these but I feel the need to and it's the last time I do something like that...I do feel hurt and I don't know why,because deep inside me I've accepted the fact that it's over...But is it???Will it ever be???Or are you going to come back one day and of course I'll run and pretend that nothing happened??It's just like I'm addicted to you..to our relationship...But it's all a game of the brain and I've started to realise that it's not that hard to controll your brain and your thougths...So for now you belong in the past...And I do miss you,but you've left me empty and I've learned to live with that...

Anyway,let's move on to something different(?)...This month reminds me of one of my favorite cartoon movies  which is Anastasia...And it's about love(ironic I know...).It's like as if this movie can take me to cold Russia wit hthe amazing songs of Anastasia and her amazing story hat has made me love her since I was a little child...Of course the thing I like most is hes dresses and of course the guy she falls in love with...I think I should watch it again one time soon....

So,I really hope for december to be a good month...Full of surprises for all of us...But what I really need is faces full of smiles all around me,sweet hugs while it's cold,drinking huge cups of cappucino and wishing for an easy ancient greek test(because I won't bear a difficult one)...

May your December be sweeter than hot chocolate,more decorated than a Christamas tree and happier that Santa's elves...:) (I know that it's too Christmas and it's too early but I'm inspired by the climate all around me...)

A letter from your eating disorder...

(As I was searching for some random images,I saw this text and I must say that I support everything that is written,so I decided to post it...I'm sure that at least one of you has dealt with an eating disorder..So have I and I strongly believe that w must fight in order to prevent other people from having one too)

Hello,my name is anorexia

       People who invite me in their lives think they choose me,but in reality I choose them.I am ruthless as soon as you give me a chance to enter your life.I will make you miserable.I control you.I am your master and I will make it extremely difficult to kick me out of your life.I make you think I am your best friend and the only one who understands youbut that is only so you let me stay in your life long enough for me to take it.There is nothing special about you,you are just the host for my infliction of desolation and despair on your own life.Some people invite me in their lives and some don't give me the time of day.I just keep on going person to person looking for my next victim.Once I'm done with you I will move on to the next person.I am ruthless,I do not care about you and I am not your friendI am the worst of the worst and the scum of the earth.I am anorexia...
P.S.You should probably try to kill me before I do kill you.

Sincerily,
Your worst nightmare...


So,that's it..I think we all know that what's written is correct and it's true that when you're in a situation like that then you can't see brightly the damage that's caused to your body.You think that skinnier is better and prettier and that it can't actually harm you.ut when someone does help you open up your eyes then you see tha what you're doing is the worst thing you could ever do to yourself.The point is to love you the way YOU are and not the way the others want to see you.Because let's face it,you are not the one who decides to do that,it's the others that make you feel  like you need to change.So NEVER let brothers-sisters,classmates,boyfriends-girlfriends,friends and generally anyone to convince you that you are not pretty enough,tall enough,thin enough...

You are who you are and you should be proud of that!!!
And one more thing...food=happiness...You only live once,do it the way you deserve!!!:)




All yours....

Prince charming theories...

So,do you believe in prince cherming???Does he really excists and he tries to find his other half among us???I believe that we are somekind of infected by all those princess films that we were watching when we were little...In those movies everything is simple...Something happens and there comes this pretty boy that you instantly fall in love with(and the opposite of course) and someone is trying to split you two up and there comes the revenge where the prince does everything just to make you feel happy and beautiful...

Yeah right,this might have happen to Ariel or Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty but NOT in real life...I think that if not all then most of the girls keep on wondering about when is he going to come??And the answer is..Never??I mean ok don't expect someone with a white horse and a shield that is going to kill a dragon.These things don't happen...He might be someone with jeans and a T-shirt.And being charming doesn't always means that he's going to be the most handsome of them all..

And now,what if he comes???And what if you don't recognise him???And whet if he is the boy right next to you that you don't even care about???Then dear,you've lost the game...Looking for someone who is pretty doesn't mean that he is going to take care of you...Search for this guy who will always be by your side and he might be there but you haven't even noticed him...And you know what??You might never find your prince charming because in our minds we've made him look like someone without bad personality and that doesn't excists...The point is to love the other with his disadvantages...And if you care about him too much don't let him go...

"When I was a little girl I used to read fairytales.In fairy tales you meet prince charming and he's everything you ever wanted.In fairy tales the bad guy is very easy to spot.The bad guy is always wearing black cape so you always know who he is.Then you grow up and you realize that prince charming is not as easy ato find as you thought.You realize that the bad guy isn't wearing a black cape and he's not easy to spot : he's really funny and hemakes you laugh"

Smells like winter all around me...:)

Even though we are not even at the middle of  November,this week I have to admit that I feel like winter has started!!!And actually it's weird because especially here(Crete) it's like summer most of the time...And I'm not sure if I can get used to the winter senses...Because I really like them but for how long???

So,on Monday i wore my boots(for the first time this year!!)because it was really cold and it was also raining and except that I was also wearing two blouses(I think I overdid it because then it felt sooooooooo warm inside the classroom and I actually regretted it).And the first thing I said as soon as I got into the classroom was "Winter's here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and everyone was staring at me...but I don't care..:P

So,we've been using the fireplace for more than two weeks but actually we turned on the radiator and I'm close to it almost all the time..I really enjoy the heat after spending sometime outside and getting into the house with an almost red nose..

Today we also started singing Christmas songs(yeah,it's early but come on!!It's wonderfull!!)..So we were singing "All I want for Christmas is you","Santa can you here me??" and songs like that but I'm glad because through the whole summer I was singing the lyrics of "Last Christmas" and now I feel free to sing it loudly because when I was doing it at summer everyone was looking at me with a weird look...

Last thing..except for tea i discovered my new love which is hot capuccino!!!Oh,and of course winter wouldn't come withou eating chestnuts!!!Just wonderfull!!And I've already worn Christmas socks...Oh yeah,I really look forward for Christmas to come..:) :)

I want to live a love like this...:)

"...She had almost fallen asleep when she heard a noise in the balcony.She got up,went close to the balcony and looked outside.She was scared at first but thn she took a deep breath and got out wearing a short white dress to see what was going on...and then she saw him...

-What are you doing here?she asked in surprisment
-I came to see you...I love you!
-Me too!she whispered and the sweetest smile appeared in her face.I'm coming down to open the door.
-What if they see us?
-They won't...Nobody's in the house.Go to the door.

She went down,opened to him and they headed back to her room.

-My love is my gift,he said and huged her.This might not seem enough but I'll get you another one once I find enough money...
-Love is priceless anyway.Oh,I had been waiting for this for such a long time!she said and then she stopped when she realized what she had told.I think it's too early,she said
-Why is it too early?
-Because,usually,first you like someone,then you fall in love with him and then you love him.
-I agree with everything you said,but somehow,I love you.I mean I don't simply like you,I'm in love with you.I feel different and I'm willing to do anything about you.That's how I feel.It comes right out of my soul no matter how weird it might sound...
-Liar!!she said and smiled
-Oh,and I have something else to give you.It means a lot to me,he said and he gave her a ring he had in his pocket.It was my mother's When she died she gave it to me and now I'm giving it to you...
-She's dead?I don't know if I can accept this...Since it belonged to your mother it must be valuable for you..
-You'r valuable for me..
-I'm afraid it's too early to be valuable for you.
-I'm not superficial.I know very well what I'm doing...

They lied in her bed and they started staring each othe without speaking,until they fell asleep.Cold wind was coming through the open balcony door but they didn't feel the cold because their love filled the room and their hearts..<3 "


Dream of love and it will come...One day...

All yours...


P.S.Of couse the text isn't mine..I only made the translation.It's from a book I've read for four times and it always makes me cry and feel that love is alive and is waiting for us in places we haven't though...I wish I could live a love like this...But the book has tragic ending so I'd like all of it except the end...
