Music Game (part 1)

So, there is this game on facebook I saw yesterday on a friends wall. It's pretty nice and I was immediately fascinated by it, since it involves music :D

The only problem is that it takes way too long (like 100 days) for it to be completed. You see, for every day, you have a new task to do involving songs :) and because I sometimes don't have enough patience to wait this long, I wanted to try something.

So I took all the tasks from all 100 days and put my playlist on shuffle. So I will let my dear playlist decide upon the song for each task. And here is what came out:

day 1 - your favourite song:
Feel (Robbie Williams)

Sweet Goodbye

I wanted to make something, something that would help say Goodbye to everyone, especially those who I couldn't say it in person.... so here it is!
I made a video using old and new pictures from my entire life zooming in and out on the sweet melody of Nickelback's Photograph.
I thank you all for this beautiful and also hard 21 years, these bittersweet years you spent at my side!!!
Thank you all! >:D<:*
I will miss you and not forget you, hope you won't forget me either!

Goodbye!

My great heart lying still...

Green Heart!

in silent suffering, smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end.

I want this moth to be the moth of hearts.
Whatever I will be doing, it will be from now on through the power of my heart. I will keep it close to me. After so many years I finally found back to my old self. But it is not easy to reopen that oh so brilliant door I have unlocked. It is hard to keep calm and breath when everything around you is falling apart, when your are left alone. But the fight is worth the price!!!!
I have managed to write 2 chapter in my book and I am currently working on my third while dreaming of the grand finale... it seems so close yet it is so far away :( or perhaps not...
I will try my best to be focused on this and all my other projects. Now that I have torn down the stage I kept performing for so many years, the stage of lies (to myself, sadly...I always was true to others, maybe it should have been the other way around, since people these days don not cherish truth) Anyway, the show is over, The Clown has left the building. Those fools who only wanted him for his fake smile will have to find another puppet to play with... shouldn't have taken that loving heart for granted!

My mission begins now.
And again, I than Nigthwish's Imaginaerum for opening that old door to myself!

"Paper is dead without words
Ink idle without a poem
All the world dead without stories
Without love and disarming beauty"

<Song of Myself - Nigthwish>

Rest calm and remember me...

So I haven't posted anything lately ...I didn't even say what theme March had...
But it's okay, I can still do it now.
The theme of March was Rainbow. It was an interesting month...with good but mostly bad things to it and now it all turned black! This is why April will be the month of the Night....

....

SnowKarl - Le Angel

Le Karl

Dear Karla was playing in the snow ;;)

Here is the first part of the story: SnowKarl
and...here is how it ended: SnowKarl ...consequneces

I got a jar of...wait what?

Yummy

Just some jars with a lot of yummy stuff in them!!! These wonders spice your meal up every time and you have the feeling of wild fireworks starting in your mouth :X awwwwwww

hehe :D

Rest calm...

Rest calm

...and remember me!

The world as we all know it is starting to change, and most of us don't like where it is going. Everything that is good seems to fade away leaving us heartbroken struggling to survive this madness.
Our only chance is to keep on holding on to our hopes and dreams, to the very beauty of life! Every end is a beginning of something else. Find that key to your soul. Do not search outside for it..search deep within you, and you will have the answer to every question :)



Blessed be!
Ani ;)

Enter!

Enter Wonderland!

So I have decided to stop posting my stories on my blog. This journey I far too important for me and I have to concentrate only on it.

I will however announce every chapter I will finish and of course the very end of all of it as well. :)

So don't be sad, I won't forget about you who read my blog.

And here is a little something from my first chapter which I finished today. I changed some things in the old

"We need love…we need our imagination! We need to free the child in us! That is our only chance…to be what we were before…to be even better…since…after all, we come out of this battle, with the wisdom of our past, knowing what is good for us and what is not. “Ah…” she smiled turning her back on the melody and looking up. She remembered how she used to love sitting in the grass and dreaming her dreams real. But as she grew up…more and more trouble came across. People telling her she was wasting her life with her dreams, that there was no use for them." 

The first chapter ends as you know it, with her opening the white gate and entering Wonderland!

Have a wonderful day!

Music in the Air

Music is in the air

It's a really funny picture I think ...you can imagine whatever you want ...right? :)) What I see are Music notes :)) on a blue paper... aww but it's so lovely... birds =  sound of music... sky = limitless (so is music) electric wires = chords...the power of music :)

What do you guys see?

Nature's Heart

Listen to it beating...

This is an older picture. I remember taken it a couple of summers ago when I was on vacation with my parents. On our way to our destination I saw a lot of spaces...empty spaces where trees have been cut down.... it was really sad...being surrounded by naked mountains...and then we came across this ...amazing shape...the Shape of a Heart :)
If one listens closely ...you can hear it beating...and crying out ...telling us to stop  making her suffer....

As white as it can be

Wish

Hello there :)

It's been a while since I last posted anything on my blog. I had a pretty busy month with exams and other things :) I still have one to go but at least it's the last one ;)

I kept thinking, what theme this month should have and so I decided it should be the white month. This February it even started snowing like crazy  (it's been snowing all day and it still hasn't stopped)

 One can correlate white to almost anything they like, for example: snow, clouds, cotton, purity, innocence etc




I wish you all a beautiful evening ;)

Keep on Dreaming...

keep your faith

...till you dreams your dreams come true.

I won't do only that....I will fight for them to come true while I'm dreaming them alive. Today I understood that one has to suffer and let go of so much even if it hurts like hell in order to grow and move on...
I finished my first Arctic Love  painting. It's funny how inspired we are when we are sad... How is it that we are blind and open up to the wrong ones and then they just let us down...when it gets real...Nothing hurts me more than when a friend turns his/her back on me and while doing that shouting bad things at me.
But as I always believed there is always light in the dark, so under a storm of tears I finished my painting and now I will be able to work on the next one :)

Feeding Time

Hungry

It's amazing what one can capture on one single photo :)
You may have to click the picture in order to see it  more clearly :) It's  a bee claiming what is hers from Nature and turning it later into sweet honey ;)

Hunting

The Hunter

This one is a very old picture.
It was taken 3 years ago (not that old right?) :))
She was spotting a dove who was eating/drinking water :))
That was the Summer when I first started working. You can see a part of a car. That car was filled every day (Monday - Saturday) with food. Me and a Driver were delivering food (for lunch which contained 2 meals, Saturday 2 of each for Sunday as well) to old or disabled people. That summer I took a lot of pictures of cats, and this is one of them :)

Secret Wishes and Dreams

Winter

Pick a tree...and project all your dreams and wishes on it :) It may still be winter, even though it's warm and there is still no snow....The empty branches of the trees are well...still without leaves. Use your imagination. Make you dreams and wishes their winter- leaves. And in Spring they will bloom and one by one will come true :)
Don't be sad when Autumn comes and the leaves will fall....for they are dreams or wishes that have come tru, and they only make room for more.
Never stop believing in magic, in beauty...in yourself! Never Question them or anything else, nothing is for granted....love and be loved. Don't you ever stop dreaming and wishing ...never, you hear me? Never! It will be your doom once you do....

CatGhost

Picture 1

Picture 2

Here you can see how Susi opens the door...well actually it was open  but she couldn't fit in so she had to push it open till she could come through it :)))

As you see in the second picture she didn't need much space for that :)) Cats are really creepy. Did you know they can fit through spaces which are smaller than themselves? :))

Month of the Sun

Hello and a Happy New Year to everyone!!!!

This months theme will be the Sun :)
For a couple of days, actually since the first day of this new year we had very sunny days.
Today is another one of them and it feels so nice...warm and just wonderful :)

It reminded me of an old video I made for Karla. It was a rainy day and all she wanted was a little sunlight. So I searched for some sun related pictures and made a video using the song from Edenbridge - Empire of the Sun
Here you go:

Hope you like it :)
I wish you all a beautiful day!
