Significant Revelations of Insignificant Minds

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....

 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...

 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...

 Sometimes we get confused with what means to be a hero. For small children a hero would be like a cartoon or a comic hero, something with supernatural powers. For young people it would be someone with a successful job, a roof above their head and being independent. For adults it would be someone with a family that s/he can support. For elder it would be someone who has lived a life that is full, someone who has no regrets. But when it comes to teenagers or adolescents we're pretty much lost. We can't pick certain things out of their mind because it's so complicated. We can't just choose and dig through their minds and souls, we can't do that with anyone actually, but especially with teens. I like this painting from Dali's global art museum that is in the place where the silver screen used to be (the whole museum is actually a theater that Dali himself has designed). It's the painting right in front of his tomb. It shows a person with an egg instead of a hea...

 I am always so anxious I'm not living life to the fullest. I see pictures, I see movies, I see people and I think to myself: Is this all I'm here for? Where is my happiness? Where are my "best days of my life"? But I always know, deep inside of me, that best days are yet to come. I try to focus on the moments and things that are happening right now. But sometimes, subconsciously, you think of the future and what it holds. What plan does life have for you and only you. Who are you going to meet, who's going to change your life, who you're going to marry, what is your purpose. And it can ruin you sometimes, if you're not careful. Some people have it really figured out and I often think of myself as the only one who has doubts and worries about the world. Like you know normal teenage stuff - from who's going to be my first boyfriend to which party will be the fatal one or something. And on the other days, I feel totally different. I have like three moods...

 This month I'll do lots of movie reviews: there are just so many good movies beginning with a b (this is getting really fun)! So I started with a classic, one of a kind and spectacular movie hit: The Breakfast Club! I loved it from the very first second I started watching it. It's crazy, awkward, romantic and full of lifetime lessons. I love it how they break all the stereotypes that are really common in these times and are present in our time, too. They make the connection between these five teenagers a useful, good and recommended bond and it just shows that it doesn't hurt to speak to someone who you thought you never would or is below/above you and so on. It teaches you how it's important that we sometimes step out of our skin and just be human, be a peer, be someone who understands the problems and difficulties of being a high-school student. We're all human and each has their own issues that are biting him and tearing him apart inside. And it's just nice ...
