Wishing you a lovely holiday season!

Happy Christmas!

If you keep on believing the dream that you wish will come true
(it happened to her...)

...a thank you note

A thank you note for the colorful opportunities given in this country...

Happy Thanksgiving!

trick or treat...

One two, one two three
Well, we get along
Yeah we really do
And there's nothing wrong
With what I feel for you
I could go with you, you, you
If you want me to
I could hang around
Till the leaves are brown
And the summer's gone

What a silly thing
For me to say to you
As the spring begins
To begin with you
And I know that it's hard, hard, hard

When the leaves are brown
And they're falling down
And the summer's gone

And I can't wait anymore for you
Spent the weekend, you've given me nothing
I can't wait anymore for you
The feeling's strong, but the summer's gone

ABERFELDY, Summer's gone

School

kinder garten?

- 星期一...

who is who

When September ends...

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when September ends

Like my father's come to pass
seven years has gone so fast
wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are

As my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when September ends

(Green Day, Wake me up when September ends)

summer fun...

This is a beach.
But I don´t remember beaches,
memories come from a river where we used to eat bananas
while the flattest stones jumped their little precise dance over the river.
Every detail comes in sepia, but the warm filter is not the memory. Back then there was no sepia vintage marketing, Summer was already a nostalgia that we were able to cuddle. We knew it. Knowing it at that moment was the dye...
Those little presents brought the future,
jump stone jump stone...to the other side.
They were simple stones but the future turned them into wild boomerangs.
Wild and sweet boomerangs,right.

4 months old

He is growing too fast...

my birthday, June 19th

So...Wish you were here :)


* * * * *

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

LOST I, ode to: CATCH A FALLING STAR

The finale countdown.
Ready for the concert...Not for a finale.
Big show, first of its kind...
I can imagine infinite spin-offs,
as stars in that concert...

: )

vieni via con me

Remembering Italy, a Friday mood




Via, via, vieni via di qui,
niente più ti lega a questi luoghi,
neanche questi fiori azurri...
Via, via, neanche questo tempo grigio
pieno di musiche e di uomini che ti son piaciuti,

It´s wonderful, it´s wonderful,it´s wonderful
good luck my babe, it´s wonderful,
it´s wonderful, it´s wonderful, I dream of you...
chips,chips, du-du-du-du-du-du

Via,via, vieni via con me
entra in questo amore buio
non perderti per niente al mondo...
via,via, non perderti per niente al mondo
Lo spettacolo dárte varia di uno innamorato di te,
it´s wonderful, it´s wonderful...

la dulce espera

Silla de coche y maleta en la puerta...
Y a esperar algun dolor o algo, no sé, algo, que pase algo...

No quieran saber la talla de este strawberry cheesecake, pista: no era un plato, era una bandeja...

38 week, it's the final countdown

It's the final countdown.
Is going to be sad not being pregnant anymore...
Do women still feel free after the baby is born?
Let's see...

Oh I do believe

In all the things you see

What comes is better than what came before

And you'd better come come, come come to me

Better come come, come come to me

Better run, run run, run run to me

Better come

Cat Power,I found a reason

Nor'easter

Waiting for the next snowstorm, record-breaker?
