Robot Meets Girl

A heart doesn't break,
by chance or change.
it happens by choice and decisions

and there is no sad songs,
or a have-to's ,
that makes you revelate in your doings
there's just silence,
and two ways to go.


and I just managed to pick the wrong one.



that my friends, is how a heart breaks.



I promise you, I'll make a smarter choice next time...
Like this one, maybe?

I just love stealing her writing. Sorry, can't help it dearie.)

*My Blueberry Nights

Jeremy
It's like these pies and cakes. At the end of every night, the cheesecake and the apple pie are always completely gone. The peach cobbler and the chocolate mousse cake are nearly finished... but there's always a whole blueberry pie left untouched.

Elizabeth
So what's wrong with the blueberry pie?

Jeremy
There's nothing wrong with the blueberry pie. Just... people make other choices. You can't blame the blueberry pie, just... no one wants it.

A peek at the movie
What is the distance between heartbreak and a new beginning?
How is it measured? By time, space or memory?

Elizabeth, a disenchanted young woman, embarks on a soul searching journey to distance herself from a broken heart. As emotional wounds began to fade, her experiences with disconnected strangers lead to a new and unexpected chapters of her life.
From the poetic musings of a late night cafe owner (Jude Law), to the desperate prepositions of a down-on-her-luck gambler (Natalie Portman), to the broken bond between a troubled cop (David Strathairn) and his rebellious wife (Rachel Weisz); these individuals redefine Elizabeth's perspectives on life, relationship and ultimately her own identity.

Slowly, Elizabeth begins letting go of the past and as she discovers a new path for herself -one towards true love.

Like Blueberry, this movie sweet, sour, bitter but also moist. In my own way, I enjoyed the movie despite the slow plots and gloomy color contrast.

Under Her Spell

Nearer and nearer moved this sun (as he saw her),
radiating its gentle, majestic light on every side,
until he felt himself enfolded in that radiance...

And heard that voice -so caressing, serene and yet so simple.
A deathly silence fell, which he sensed as right and proper.
Through it came the sound of her sweet voice.

Her face was even finer than ever before.
It glowed with a girlish delight and youthful innocence
of a giddy fourteen-year-old.

Glancing casually, her eyes met his,
and lingered there for not more than two seconds.
Whether or not she could tell what was happening at the depths of his soul, (and he was almost sure that she could),
She did stare into his face for two solid seconds,
with her hazel eyes emitting a soft and gentle radiance.

That was how he fell under her spell.
That was how she stole his heart.

Ghosts from the Past

A friend once told me this:
In order to get better in life, you have to let go of the ghost in the past.
You may think that the ghost is the best for you so far,
but you know yourself that you deserve to acquire a better one...

So,
Whatever life takes away from you, let it go.
When you surrender and let go of the past, you allow yourself to be fully alive in the moment.
Letting go of the past means you can enjoy the dream that is happening right now.

You Left Me Feeling...

Like a turning head
Like a second look
Like a burning leaf of an open book
Like a pounding sea
Like a messy crime
When your eyes first met with mine

Like a broken word
Like a tragic smile
Like a thousand steps or a single mile
Like a lonely chance
Like a savage glow
When you turned and said hello

I was just about to call
There were flowers on the ceiling
You left me feeling...

Like a fading voice
Like a closing door
Like a dozen lies and a dozen more
Like a twisted tongue
Like a distant bike
When we broke out into the dark

The stars looked like burning sparks
The lights were warm but chilling
You left me feeling...
Tired, could not close my eyes
On fire, but frozen inside
To run or to hide
Speechless, my words could not melt
Whisper, I wanted to shout
Without you I felt...

Like a fleeting thought
Like a double eight
Like a gentle fear of a warming taste
Like a placid breath
Like a cooling blow
When you stopped and held me close

Inside I nearly froze
Your touch is almost healing
You left me feeling
Tired, could not close my eyes
On fire, but frozen inside
To run or to hide
Speechless, my words could not melt
Whisper, I wanted to shout
Without you I felt...

Like a setting sun
Like a last goodbye

Like an incomplete lullaby

Behind these hazel eyes...

"She is an essence, a way of being, a mindset -and she exists in us all.
She is that part of us that is free - and not bound up by the joyless strings of Puritan morality of guilt.
She's that part of us that has a sense of continuity in life, that doesn't rush, that feels sexy for no apparent reason.
She is, more fundamentally, that part of us that does not want to live according to what others think she should be.
She is her own woman.
Entirely."

The Clouds Move Slowly

You close your eyes when you cry.
That's ok.

Just don't keep them closed too long.
Things have become beautiful since you last looked.
There's nothing more to cry about.
Happiness is back!

Barbie Graces Vogue's Cover

Barbie has scored a starring role in Vogue Italia's most iconic edition; the Black Issue, as the magazine styles the iconic doll in a collector's supplement. In July 2008, Franca Sozzani, editor-in-chief of Vogue Italia, conceived the first Black Issue, starring models including Iman, Naomi Campbell, Liya Kebede, Sessilee Lopez and Jourdan Dunn - with the intention of sending a message to the fashion world about the importance of diversity in fashion.

"Barbie has been an icon for whole generations which is why I really wanted to give a strong sign in step with the times, and dedicate the anniversary issue to Black Barbie," Sozzani said.


The first black doll from Barbie was introduced in 1967, as a friend of Barbie called Francie, followed by the first "Black Barbie" doll, introduced in 1980. The trend continues this autumn with the launch of a collection of black Barbie dolls, called the So In Style dolls; which have been designed with more authentic-looking black features, including a new facial sculpt that has fuller lips, a wider nose, more distinctive cheek bones and curlier hair.

"Barbie has been a mirror of the times for 50 years and continues to reflect the trends and interests of the day," Richard Dickson, senior vice president of Barbie said."
