New Year's Ambitions And Resolutions

"New Year, new me," would kinda be the most used sentence in the last month of every year. I think it is way overrated - the way people think everything is going to change the next year and how they are gonna change, too. You see, I believe in changes. I'm not saying people changing is something I do not approve or think it's meaningless. I just think it's pathetic and senseless to think you can only change in the like first month of the new year and that if you don't change by the end of that month or maximum to the end of the second to third month of the new year, you have no chances whatsoever to be a new person or at least changing a few habits you wanted to get rid of. I think that's completely misguided. People live in this fantasy of magic months like December and January are and that in only these two months miracles do happen. They're in love with the idea of change (or changing) and then doing nothing about it. I must confess that I myself of...

C Stands For: Coco Avant Chanel

I can easily name this film as one of my favorites. It's very harsh and at times cruel, but I think it's worth watching. It symbolizes that women can (and are) be hard-workers and at the same time incredibly strong and brave. Many people forget how most women in the past got as far as they did and what did they had to do to get on the position they wanted. It was far from easy and I think we don't glorify one of the bravest women more. We often forget that discrimination between men and women is still very common even in the modern world, but like Steve Jobs said: " The people who are crazy enough to think they can change world are the ones who do. " And that is true regardless of the gender. I believe in power of women and I can count myself as a feminist. But the problem about the whole 'feminism' thing is that people often mistake it as if women want to take over the world or like overcome men in any kind of profession. That is a totally incorrect conce...

Are Looks Really All That Matters Nowadays And What Will Happen In the Future?

I can see many people, mostly adolescent, changing into objects of lust. It makes me sad to realize how good they once were and that I can't stop them since I have completely no right to do such thing, even though if I only wish them well. We must accept that people won't change because of us or stay the same. We must learn that change is the part of our life, but I can't seem to just ignore the fact that I used to know that people, they used to know me and that they were such different people back then. And than I ask myself: "What if one day everyone's gonna give up being themselves and that one day we will become just society's idea of perfection?" What if that actually happens? I'm scared of that and that is kind of change I don't wanna be a part of or don't even wanna hear about it. Because then you develop so many new questions about your friends that are only haunting you for no reason like will they change too and if they'll broke t...

December Is For the C - The Carrie Diaries

First of all; I've been addicted to The CD since I first watched the show. I know now follows some kind of introduction of why and how I've chosen this perfect little show to present it in my blog. It kinda goes like this: at first I thought it's another cheesy, overrated teenage show that talks about love triangles, being-in-love kind of issues and a girl finding herself after a long time. Well, I wasn't that wrong but Carrie or should I say AnnaSophia Robb and a job well done on the casting (that was meant for Austin Butler). They impressed me immediately and I fell in love instantly. And it's really not all about the cheesy love stuff and being unable to choose between this and that. It is full of situations life gives you and it shows how Carrie is facing them all and I can only say she can be a role-model for all the girls out there - full of good vibes, faces troubles like a real woman and knows what she deserves. And she won't give it away. Carrie Brads...

The Nostalgia of the Unwritten Love

I kindly ask you, whoever is reading this, if any, to read this post while listening to this song -  song that reminds me of him .  It will soon pass two years since I last saw him and at the same time exactly one year since he broke my heart. I'm not talking about Daniel this time. I am talking about a boy who literally changed my life and I always thoughts I forever changed his, too.  I think I already wrote the story about a boy named Jan. How we met on a swimming competition and instantly got along. How when every time I lost he always secretly sneaked behind the bleachers to my resting place and he comforted me with his laugh, jokes and hugs. We were inseparable. All those late night texts until 2 AM in the morning and the words he spoke that calmed me in the moment. He was my shelter, he was always there for me as I was there for him. Our love was mutual and undeniable. In my hard times he told me I was the most beautiful girl in the world. And then suddenly ev...

7 Reasons To Talk To A Stranger

I love reading all those spontaneous stories about two totally random people meeting on a subway train and starting chatting, or bumping into each other at a library and get into talking about their favorite books and writers, or spilling coffee on someone while they're writing something and it is all like hate at first sight and so many lovely stories and events going on right now just about anywhere in the world. I love it when something like this happens, because unexpected and unplanned moments are the best. They create so many memories that stick in your head and you simply smile when thinking about the "incident" because it was something totally awkward and weird and lifelike. It was an one of a kind experience, whatever it was. Everything you do, everything you say is a memory stuck somewhere inside that brain of yours and I think that's fascinating. I think all people are unique, beautiful and lovely. Everyone has that dream inside of that, that longing of mee...

First Snow

So the first snow has fallen here, in Slovenia. I must say this year we've waited quite long since last year we had it like in the middle of October. It didn't keep, of course, since it was just a light one and the snowflakes were small, but still I was happy to see it fall. I'm not gonna bullshit you about how magical Christmas is and how we all enjoy it because I think I've done enough bullshit of this occasion last year, describing Christmas spirit and atmosphere. Although, I would like to say how I feel about the whole winter thing, because winter is not just about Christmas and presents and color red. It's more to it and I'm gonna tell you why it's my favorite time of the year. Now winter hasn't always been my favorite time of the year. For quite some time I've always loved summer over winter and the hot nights and the memories made. It sure is a special season, summer, but the magic, I think, happens during the time where we all gather in s...

Student Exchange 2013: Barcelona, Spain

This is my first student exchange ever and I am super excited. Since I chose Spanish as my second language (besides English), professor gave us an option on going to Spain for a week; learning more Spanish (you always learn more in real life than textbooks) and besides the draft for the presentation that we're going to compose in this one week, which is going to be grated, we're going to gain lots of experiences, make new friends and get familiar with the life in Spain. Myself and other ten from my class are departing on Tuesday. We are first going to ride with a bus to Venice, from which we are flying to hot Barcelona. Here is a list of things that are planned for the upcoming week: Parc Nou Museum:  from what I can see from the Google photos, I am overwhelmed by the beautiful nature surrounding this gorgeous park. Croscat volcanoes:  I always wanted to see volcanoes from up close and I'm thrilled and freaked at the same time since I've never seen a volcano before....

We All Get Addicted To Things That Take The Pain Away

 And I must confess that my kind of addiction is daydreaming, for quite some time now. I don't know if it's a good thing or if it'll solve anything (which I'm pretty sure it won't) but it does make the pain go away. It does kinda grabs me away from this cruel reality and I think that's what everybody needs from time to time. I even think that a   daily dose of daydreaming heals the heart, soothes the soul and strengthens the imagination. Sometimes we think that the effect is actually the opposite but I find it like a comfort to my mind that is too often under a big pressure and holds so much burden. It needs to loosen up sometimes and it just feels nice that like (even if it's going in my head) things are going my way, that finally I'm his girl and that he is my man and that he makes me feel like the luckiest person in the room and the opposite. It makes me smile and forget for a moment about all the stressful and bad things that are going on right now i...

B Is For: Bridget Jones's Diary

 One of the all time romance classics is this hilarious movie of how love is totally blind. How you can be a top model, but without a kind, original and beautiful mind and soul - you're never gonna win a true man's heart. There is a quote - "Beauty without intelligence is a masterpiece painted on a napkin." which author is unknown. I find it so realistic and true it gives me shivers, but some people just don't realize it and I wonder if the one will ever notice me ... You know; for not being the prettiest in school but having a different, at least an original heart and mind? Well, let's leave this and my poor little feelings for now. Though Bridget and I may seem very much alike, I must admit she beats me all the way. She has the guts and courage to be herself even though she is not so slim (which I find inspiring!). How she wins a man's heart by being true herself and no one else. How when she finds out about that lying bastard Daniel she does her work an...
