Teenage years alphabet....

Anticipation for the years that are coming...For the changes that we are going to face...During our teenage years a lot of things change...sometime these changes are good and others bad but we learn how to deal with them...We don't actually know what will happen in the future but we all anticipate and dream about it...

It's also the time when we start to Believe in some things...Some things that seemed different when we were younger...We start to believe in things like love and we define it the way we want to...Well,it's also the time when some of us don't believe in themselves,something that is actually bad because it brings us down but we all deal with that at some point...

We have stopped being kids but we aren't adults yet...Sometimes we Cherish our childhood...Well,it's propably because things were much more simple back then...Whereas during the teenage years things start being a little bit Comfusing some times....

Dreamers is our middle name...We love dreaming....of our future mostly...It's our way to escape from reality...It's something that adults forget doing sometimes...But for us,it's a way to express ourselves,a way to get over our problems,a way to relax and the simplest way to make us smile...

Full of Excitement...Not all the time of course but we are willing to obtain new Experiences,to meet new people,to travel to diferent places...We descover new Emotions that we couldn't define in the past..We just knew their names and we imagined how they could be from descriptions of other people but we hadn't actually felt them...And now,here they come,knocking impatiently the door of our heart...

Of course I couldn't write a post like that without refering to Friendship....Our Friends suddently become the most important people in our life..Everything we do has to be with them and generally we like being around them...We choose them because we think that we suit together...And even though some of them may hurt us in the end,there will always be others that will wait at the end of the road ready to support us...

And here comes the Goals...It's the targets that we put in order to fullfil them succesfully one day...Some of them will be easier than others,but we try to achieve all of them...And some of them are also going to be replaced through the years...But it doens't matter...What really matters is to try and get as much as we can from our everyday life...

And of course it's the firsta time that we experience this thing called "Heartbreak"....And it's definitely hard to overcome...Especially the first time...And after the first time you are afraid that you are going to be hurt again...And that's the last thing you want...But no one can promise you that it won't happen...All you have to do is risk it...Who knows??You may not get hurt the next time...Until then,the best medicine for heartbreaks is chocolate...So make sure you have enough...

*Well,there will definitely be a part two(and propably a part three)...I don't know if you actually agree with me but you know...these are just my theories and each one of us has the right to believe in whatever he/she wants...
**Don't forget to smile a lot!!!:)

And just like that the first tears started to fall from the sky...

I have to say that I'm soooooooooo glad because yesterday it finally started to rain!!!!!I can't descibe how much I wanted this to happen because here it's like summer most of the time and evn though I like it sometimes I prefer the magic that autumn and winter can offer to us...

Well yesterday evening I had an ancient greek class(yeah ist's not my favourite either but I have to do it) and while I was trying to read an ancient greek text I heard a fammliar noise..."It's not possible!!"I said to myself..."I know this noise very well...it's...it's...it's raining!!!!!!!!!!!!"..while I was thinking those things a huge smile appeared in my face....My professeur started telling that she hoped her son was ok because he was having some football practise....And that was the only comment made for my beloved rain as the ancient greek started whispering my name....

The truth is that it rained a lot yesterday...So when I got in my mother's car in order to leave the fat drops of water started appearing in the window again....The radio did it's miracle and suddently "Ridders in the storm" started to play...What else could be more suitable than that??

As I was watching outside the window,I noticed that the streets that used to be full of people had only a few ones left...I smiled to myself and thought "That's the magic of the rain...making people who don't appreciate this gift go and lock themselves in their houses"...As soon as I got out of the car I could feel the cold wind making my cheeks red and some drops fell right on my lips...

I remember when I was a little child,the first day it rained one of my mother's friends would invite us to her house in order to eat something like pancakes with honey...It was the sweet of the first rainy day...I've missed those days...But guess what??The taste of rain remains the same....The smell of it fills the air...And its magic is never lost...

So welcome back dearly beloved rain!!I've missed you...And I'm glad you became my inspiration...:)

How about a brownie???

Well,as my mum has gone to my village for the weekend,I decided to practise my cooking skills a little bit...Yeah,if you know me well you'd say that I don't know how to cook anything except for toast but you are soooooooo wrong...Because recently(from July actually),I started thinking abou the cooking issue and so I decided that I would learn how to cook...

Of course these aren't mine...
But,instead of cooking,I think I prefer making sweets...Yes,I'm good at that...I've tried to make lollipops once and they tasted great but the problem was that we couldn't unglue them from the baking pan so the only way to eat them was to cut small pieces with a knife and that wasn't very convinient...

So anyway,I've tried and done(with success this time) some other sweets with my grandmother...I think that they succeded because I wasn't alone and someone was actually there to tell me what I should do...And I also tried to make a yoghurt sweet this summer...It turned out really good but my cousints didn't even try it because they don't like these kind of sweets so for one more time my effords weren't appreciated...

So,today because my mother's out of town and my dad is coaching I decided to try for one more time in order to (finally) succed...I bet my mother would freak out if she knew but I'm going to surprise(?) her on Sunday...And when I told my dad he said "ok...just try not to get the house on fire" and I haven't (yet)...

Well,I'm actually making brownies and even though the recipe was simple it took me more time than I imagined it would...Right now,my cake is in the oven and it's going to stay there until nine...I hope that when it gets out it won't explode or something...I went to check it and it has pumped up at certain points and I keep wondering..."Is this normal????"...
This is what I' trying to make...
While cooking...:P
The mixture...


Keep your fingers crossed that it's going to be alright...

Random things that make me smile...:)



Falling asleep to the sound of rain...Almost everyone I know loves rain...I mean why shouldn't we??it's something that comes from the sky...Like little tears who come down on earth and sometimes cover our own tears...But that's not the only thing about rain...It's also the sound that makes when it hits the ground...It makes a different sound when it hits the balcony,the soil where the flowers lie...And every piece of these sounds create a magic lullaby that makes the perfect soundtrack for my dreams....

Shoulder kisses...Well,I think that everyone likes to be kissed....Most of the people think that the best place to kiss someone is on the lips...I don't disagree with that but it's just that I believe that the shoulder is much more sweet and romantic...Of course there is also the neck...But the shoulder is a place of the body where few think about kissing and believe me,it definitely deserves to be kissed...

Getting lost in a good book...You may think that it's nerdy or something but I have to admit that I really like reading books...It's like a trip to a different world,where every character can be as you imagine him/her...It's amazing how you can get inspired by a good book...I do that and I must say that books indeed travel us inside our soul and help us create a better image of the world today...At least that's what happens with me...

Warm fresh smelling clothes from the dryer...Yes,I have to admit that i love the smell of my clothes when they get off the dryer...They smell like flower or sea or whatever smell the softener may have...Plus,the are also warm and soft,one more reason to love that...

Finding a quote or a song that discribes your current situation....Generally I listen to different types of music and I must say that I can't decide which one I prefer...And I also like finding quotes...Most of them are about love or life or friendship and I write then down in order to remember them,even though I forget most of the words...But,I really like it when i find songs that just seem to be written exactly for me...I think that everyone feels that at some point...It's amazing how sometimes a song may describe yourself or your feelings...

A hot cup of tea when it's cold outside....Drinking tea...I've definitely missed that...In the summer cold tea can't actually replace the warmness and the calmness that a hot tea can offer you...And god knows how I love that warmness...Of course I'm not crazy to drink hot tea when outside there is more that 35 degrees...So that's another thing that I will enjoy this winter...

When strangers smile at you...Ok,this might sound a little crazy but it's awesome when someone you don't know and walks on the street randomly smiles at you...It shows that he/she appreciate the life that he/she's given and that he/she wants to share that with you...And don't forget that a simple smile can light up even the worst of your days...


Finding old pictures
...I believe that each picture has a story to tell...It's amazing how you an capture time and moments...That's why i believe that pictures are important,because they can remind us of the past that even though sometimes may hurt,it is a part of who we are now...And even though sometimes we don't like how we used to be,it's fun to remember....



Nomatter what you do,always remember to stay happy.....:)

If only medieval was today....

It might sound weird or even crazy but I'd give anything to live in the medieval ages...It's like my favourite era of all times...Somehow the mystery that covers these years seems very interesting for me so I'd love to turn back time and end up living in a medieval castle...

Of course at that time women weren't important and most of them were treated like animals so I guess I'd like to be wealthy because at that time wealth was all that matters(it's almost the same now but anyway)...so yeah,a castle with a huge garden and rooms full of ligh would really work fine for me...:P

So anyway,medieval is mostly regarded as "the black years"...And that's because then they believed in wizards and mostly in witches..So if someone didn't like a woman,he could easily say that she's a witch and then a future full of pain and tortures would begin for her..Most of them were being thrown into wells or they hanged them...And they even did the same to my beloved pirates...That's nasty of course but the society worked that way back then...People found entertaining the fact that they could see other people suffer in front of their own eyes...

But there were also good times...Like,if you were a king-queen or a prince-princess you had the brightest future and the whole world turned around...You could have thousands of long dresses and jewels,everyone was listening to you as if you were a god...Well,of course all those seem over the edge but I think that most of us could get used to these easily...

Oh,I wish i could turn back the time and live there..I don't actually know why but I' give anything to walk in the old town of London where everything got dark and you were scared of the steps you could hear behind you...Jack the ripper may surprise you by making his steps in front of the crowd and kill you...Yeah,it is creepy...but it definitely deserves to be part of it...



And now,back to reality...back to the sunshine of Greece...back to the present where jack the ripper is just a character in a book,where kingdoms are just part of the history,where all those long dresses I love can be worn only in halloween...Yeah,that's definitely called "present"....

The end....

Golden brown...

So here comes September...A new month,dressed into the colours of brown,yellow and orange starts full of hopes,dreams and expectations....August ended and so has the summer,which said goodbye leaving behind memories full of the taste of sand and sea sand....

And here's the part where the school starts...A new year...new books,new teachers,new subjects and even new classmates...Bittersweet feelings actually...It's definitely going to be difficult but I hope I'll enjoy it...At least I will see my old classmates again and hopefully we'll be all together...It might be difficult at first but we'll propably get used to it soon..or at least that's what I hope...

But I belive that each month is different and each month can offer us some of its beauties...September may be a quite sad month for some people (who hate returning to school or to their jobs) but it also has some magic itself...I mean,I love the cool wind that's coming out of the window...And most of all I love the sound of the melodist which "sings" magically everytime the wind blows...

The leaves of the trees haven't started falling yet but by the end of the month most of them will have start creating a thin carpet below them...And they will also start changing colours...From green everything will turn into a sea of warm coloursand they will fit perfectly with the weather that will be a mixture of winter and summer...And the rain will start again!!!Tears will be falling from the sky...I've missed those tears and I really look forward to the moment when they'll cover my face...

So welcome back September...You might be a difficult month at first but I really like it when you show your warm side...Get ready for a whole new year at school and don't worry,september is going to cover us with its magic within a few weeks...
