LATE

Hello World~
How was your week?
I haven't posted anything in ages, sorry.
Well, guess what I saw outside my window when I woke up: SNOW!!!!
Yes,finally after heeps of rain we got some snow, even if it was the wet doesn't last kind, but still.
So...I recently read 3 books: Looking for alaska, It's kind of a funny story and go ask alice. I'm now reading the last book of Demonata: Hell's heroes. YES. I love Darren Shan he is a fantastic author.
Moving on, we are now watching Lost. My brother is addicted and bought the first 2 seasons on dvd and were on episode 11, I think. Its quite good but very mysterious and not at all what I thougt it would be like. It also has one of my favorite actors in it: Dominic Monaghan.

Well I'm off
Toodles World~
Love
Carmen


ps: Do i'm maybe perhaps just a little ashamed to admit it, i've started watching gossip girl...

Yukon musher






In the emails my brother sends he refers to himself as Yukon musher. hahaha. An explanation: My brother is currently working as an apprentice musher for a man called Hugh Neff who is a musher and who races in the Yukon quest!! Lucky boy. Even if I miss him and even if he now lives in a small cabin thousands of miles away I'm still glad he's were he wants to be and not stuck in the city not working.

I haven't being up to much this week, last weekend I babysat and it went really well! Monday I woke up with a really bad headache so I stayed in bed till 11:30 then I just trudged around the house drinking water and watching sappy Japanese drama's. Tomorrow I have no school so me and a bunch of friends are going to go see the Body's exhibition at the eaten center. Huzzah.

The person I mentioned in earlier posts well I'm pretty sure we're just friends and I'm glad it's that way because I discovered he's in love with a wonderful young girl and I just want to be happy for him not jealous.

Soooo.... what else, today at lunch my friend did this hilarious thing that you only see in funny movies or comics: he tried to kick as high as he could and his pants ripped I haven't laughed that much in ages!!!

I still haven't posted those New york pictures...one day, one day...maybe.
hahaha

Well I'm off.
have a very lovely weekend
:)




What a beautiful place

You are the one I look for in the crowd


~Hello there~
Sorry for the lack of posts, I wasn't really feeling in the posting mood last week...
Lets see what were my highlights of the week:
1-I PASSED MATH! YES!!!!!
2-I passed all my classes this session!
3-I got closer to him.
4-I spent the whole weekend with my best friend in Ottawa.
5-My dog was just adorable

My friend Mariana is reading: The zombie guide to survival, its brilliant and i'm thinking of going to buy it.
I really should post those pictures of my N-Y trip... I keep forgetting. Darn.
Im watching V now. the new alien show. Its good yet strange.

I was feeling really down yesterday afternoon for no logical reason, strange how life is like that sometimes.
Have a lovely week-
:)
And just for some inspiring words

Already November, wow. Snow snow, when will you arrive
Today around 12:30 me and 41 teenagers+3 teachers got back from our weekend trip to New York.
It was great. Even if we did do too much shopping. haha. Strange thing for a girl to say.
Pictures are coming soon
But for now here's a taster:Me, Marie-rose, ivy and mister blue!
Did I mention We went to the world's largest toys R us and that we went to see Shrek the musical!
Did you have a Fantastic Halloween?

Am I?

It's confusing
Wondering if your in love or not
kinda stupid because if you're in love aren't you supposed to know, to feel it to get some sort of tingle in your bones when you spot him? Yet I'm not sure what I feel.

blue lips blue veins. blue the color of our planet from far far away.



I just love Regina Spektor's song blue lips!
"The pictures in his mind arose
And began to breathe
And no one saw and no one heard
They just followed the lead
The pictures in his mind arose
And began to breathe "

I'm supposed to be out running and my dog is looking at me longingly, she wants to come...yet is seems I'm always making excuses not to go. You know what? I will go as soon as I finish this post.
its my adorable friend Angela's birthday party this saturday. We're gonna go bowling!!!

Just to clarify


my mom just saw the title of my blog and told me thats the name of a drink that has whisky and other stuff in it. My blog is not named after an alcoholic drink. I just like those 2 words.

hahaha

I just had to post this
~Enjoy~
:)
Fail.

Do what you love and love what you do

Hello World

Today-14Th October 2009
~First SNOW~ Already, wow. I have to say I was pretty shocked when I was walking the dog and noticed something...white...and fluttery coming down from the sky,surprise surprise it was snowflakes. October 14Th, wow Canada is a crazy place! Don't get me wrong I love snow. It's beautiful but I very much dislike the cold and unfortunately snow and cold come together*sniff*.
This is what Montreal looks like now.

And this is what montreal will look like in a few weeks( if that is, the could are on speed)

The Sexy Rexy rocket to the Stars.

Recently Ive been reading a blog called La petite sirene, Art adventures of the little mermaid.
It really inspired me. This young woman is a fantastic artist, and her determination and talent was quite inspiring. It made me want to get up, draw, paint, or just visit gallery's is New York. So Ive decided that despite my lack at art talent, I will try to start drawing. Or maybe ill just carry a camera around... It seems photography is one of my talents...I think.

family lockets? I think not

annoyance, a word that comes up often when you live in my house with my brother. God, I wanna punch something, actually some one.
*sigh*

You say yes, I say no


I want these shoes.

I want to get up look I'm my closet and find these clothes


.........................................................................................................................................................

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
all your life
you were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night

Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
you were only waiting for this moment to arise.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
There are some days when I just feel really useless. Like I should get up and do something, then I think, but what? Draw a tree, take a picture, read a book, go for a walk, clean my room, organize my clothes. But I don't feel like doing any of those things. I just feel like sipping hot coco while watching old Disney classics.





These days fashion is fascinating me. hem, wonder why? =)
Disney films are also my new obsession. Ive been watching them none stop.
See ya peeps.



Friday, September 11, 2009

The day will happen whether or not you get up

Holla amigos.

Yes i know my Spanish skills are fabulous.

I can also say home, chocolate and bathroom*grins Proudly* and a few other words. I understand more than i speak. I think.

Second week of school almost over. We had a weird yet cool experiment in science today, the whole class held hands and then one guy touched this bottle type thing with a small ball at the end and we all got a shock, because the small bottle thingy had just been charged with electricity from an larger ball. Hem that sounded confusing. Well it was fun and exhilarating!


I just watched Eagle Eye, it was good. Shia leboeuf was very good in it, I was definatly on the edge of my seat. And guess what i find Shia quite good looking, hem. I'm now reading the adoration of Jenna Fox. Confusing yet good.

´



Hey its the next day, i forgot to post last night's post...oups sorry

So today...school... drama was fun, very funny! la la la I had to walk home...lazy friends!! but its okay I read my book all the way home...almost walked into a pole, hehe.

Oh oh its the weekend! YES. and my dad comes home tomorrow! yai.


Oh Oh, have I ever mentioned that I am irrevocably and irrationally in love with the

 LORD OF THE RINGS

yes now you know of my not so secret obsession. Huzzah

So im guessing you can imagine my excitement when i went to HMV and saw the lord of the rings boxed set for only 20$. obviously I bought it.




Moving on

A while ago a friend of my mom sent us an email with a link to a youtube video, It was about a organization called playing for change. which is actually a movie/cd that well...connects people around the world using music. Its fantastic.


The screen play writer of Juno is making a new movies called Jennifer's body. Its about a teenager in high school who gets possessed by a demon and becomes a cannibal. I want to see it except it 17 and over. Darn

Well thats all i have to say for now.

Ciao amigos.


 


Just cause this girl is beautiful and I love her coat


She is stunning

Into the west


Into the west-Enya
Lay down, 
your sweet and weary head.
Night is falling. 
You have come to journey’s end.

Sleep now, and dream 
of the ones who came before.
They are calling, 
from across a distant shore.

Why do you weep? 
What are these tears upon your face?
Soon you will see.
All of your fears will pass away.
Safe in my arms, 
you’re only sleeping.

What can you see,
on the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea,
a pale moon rises.
The ships have come,
to carry you home.

And all will turn, 
to silver glass.
A light on the water.
All souls pass.

Hope fades,
Into the world of night.
Through shadows falling,
Out of memory and time.

Don’t say, 
We have come now to the end.
White shores are calling.
You and I will meet again.
And you’ll be here in my arms,
Just sleeping.

What can you see,
on the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea,
a pale moon rises.
The ships have come,
to carry you home.

And all will turn, 
to silver glass.
A light on the water.
Grey ships pass
Into the West.

Enya- Into the west. an incredibly stunning song.

The sun is out, the sky is blue its beautiful and so are you.

Hello again.
Much Love to 3 day weekends! 
First week of school is finally over. whew, it was a rush, and guess what? I  barely got any homework. Yai!
I finished the perks of been a wallflower, it was very good. not my usual read but I'm glad I read it, I'm going to indigo this weekend to buy more books, for I've run out...

Did you know, cheetah's are one of my favorite animals, they are beautiful and so fast and powerful.


A friend of mine at school is planning on starting a book club with our last year's English teacher!!!
I was pretty exited at the news, considering how much i love to read. Cant wait to hear more about it.


What i would like to buy is a pop art camera, I discovered it on an other blog and looked it up on the all mighty google, its only about 20$ :)

me and my Hoodie <3



me and Marie! the crazy fools we are.

Well I'm off see you soon fellow blogger's.

the perks of been a wallflower


Well first day over.only 179 to go...
and the stupid school didn't give be the right horaire.*sigh*

School is supposed to be harder this year, something I'm not looking forward to, but this is a promise to myself I'm going to work harder this year, no slacking off... Ok maybe just a little slacking off, ha ha. I started "the perks of been a wallflower" I think its going to be good.

I find it kind of strange that when i was looking at an other blog there were so many people that subscribed to it, because that means that those people enjoy reading about the life of someone they possibly don't know. I also realised I'm one of those people, its interesting to see someone else's perspective on life.
My dad is in Scotland now, lucky man.
Anyhow i leave you now with some pictures. Enjoy =]

much love to the girl in red<3


There were 2 bee's on that flower

My mother is a beautiful person

why so sad


the greatest treasures are those invisible to the eye but found by the heart

Beauty in a grey world.

first post


Well, my first post.This is actually my first blog, my thoughts tend to stay in my head usually. 
Goodness i fell so old this week, which is pretty stupid of me to say, considering how young i am, but really secondary 4! part of the big kids now, wow.
School starts tomorrow, woupi...
I finished a new book yesterday, city of beasts, it was good, considering i bought it in a second hand store in Edinburgh.



Me and my mum discussed movies today. We have a lot in common.
I'm not to sure what people talk about on blogs..daily life i guess. there problems. But what should i talk about?
The house smells good, mum's cooking.
just so you know everyone...I AM OBSESSED WITH BOOKS. my mum often asks me what i would do if i didn't have books I reply that I would die...a bit dramatic.
-head hurts again...darn it!

read this book.its is fabulous

actually all her books are very good.
So read them all =3

This is what im going to read next.


~I can see the sun setting threw the window.pretty.
