Back to the blog!!

I'm still alive, though it seems unbelieveble considering that I got the flu and all of the things I wanted to do I hadn't the chance to accomplish them... but I had to work anyway ( and this is bad) but also to go to the academy ( and this is sooo good!!!!!! *_* )
I 've had cough all this week, so I was afraid to start, especially for singing lessons..but our first day was absolutely awesome anyway! I will have time to tell you later or tomorrow for now I have to go to work...

ps: athena, I haven't the time to send the dvd, but on monday or tuesday I will send it finally! I promise!!!

First day!!!

It's been a while and I'm sorry, but I had no time due to my jobs ( fast food, babysitter) and of course I tried to study a little for my upcoming exam...I haven't slept much these past two night, and I think I will not have a chance to rest till end of October, for I'll be working at the fast food every night ( my boss has some trouble with his other activity and cannot leave my co-worker alone, so I'm on)
anyway...later, this afternoon, I will have the first meeting at the musical academy! I'm so, so excited about it!!!! I will tell you later, or tomorrow, now I have to go to the gym!

Viva la vida - Coldplay

Sometimes you find a song that you can take off of your mind and then you realise it is more than a song, it is actually saying something...this was the case of " viva la vida"... I used to hear it a work and I admit it, I do the " ohhh ohhh ohh ohhh" part :P but today I stopped and listened to it carefully and woah, it has one of the most amazing and interesting lyrics I've ever heard!

Here's the song and the lyrics! Let me know what you think! For me the leader of the coldplay is a genius and his band is just spectacular!

Viva La Vida


I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sweep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
(Ohhh)

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh

Bookmooch

Bookmooch.com

I've joined yesterday! It is a great site where you can put a list of book and then recieve requests from all over the world...then you can decide to accept the request and send the requested book and gain points you use to request books for yourself!
If you realise you don't want any book, then you can donate your points to an istitution that will use them for benefit :D
I think it is a great idea, a sort of bookcrossing! I hate to have books getting old and dusty on a shelf without anyone but me to read them ( I am a bookworm, reading almost 30 books or more a year, not to mention university books :P ) I used to give some of mine to the local library here, but it closed this summer so when a friend showed me this site I had no doubt and joined!

This is my page, so, if you ever want a book I have on my list, feel free to contact me there :D

ps: I have books in other languages also, I will post them day by day ^_^

Back to the gym

This morning I made up my mind and decided to go back to the gym...I did Fitboxe ( I adore it!) till July then stopped 'cause I started working.
Now, to be honest I had the idea to restart with sport from the very beginning of September but for a reason or another I always ended up saying something like " I'll go next week!I'll go tomorrow!" and as you can see it is October already.
Well, that day has finally come and the secretary saw me coming across the doors with the same look in her eyes as if I were a ghost or something! :D
After a good chat, I paid the monthly subscription and thought " yes, it's done! I will start tomorrow!" and I was about to go when the secretary stopped me and asked me " Why don't you start today? Next lesson is at 12pm! You have 30 minutes "
I could not say no, so I went back home, took my suit and ...well..this was my first day after three months of complete stillness and now every single bone of my body is in agony! But it was so exciting, and I think I will feel better as the days go by :D

this is a picture of my gym :



People are nice and the place is big and confortable..what more can I ask for? :D

Sfizeria

This is how the place where I work is called : Sfizeria! I really don'y know from where this name is taken but it sounds good :D

anyway, I found out that they have an internet site!

www.sfizeria.com

Here's a couple a pictures :



( The outside : it is a huge place, isn't it ? )





and can you see the guy standing there in the corner, staring seriously at the camera? He's my boss!
He looks like a bear , he's rude but I know that deep inside ( very deep, though... you have to dig for a while, I guess :P ) he's good hearted :)

Today costumers told me my "kebabs" were tasty and they truly enjoyed them! I was so happy, it is so nice to recieve good remarks for you job well done!

Now I will go to sleep... good night!

Working day!

This morning I woke up at 9 and I was late! I had to run at work, a part time, where I had to do a general cleaning...I managed to clean up the kitchen, yes, the kitchen only, and it took me three hours and a half! This evening I went to the fast food and in a hour it got so crowded I could not believe it was the same place! :P
Believe it or not, I think that Someone up above has heard my prayers, for my co-worker was gloomy for sales were not as good as she hoped and I told her not to lose faith and to believe that things' gonna be alright...then costumers kept coming till late midnight and none of us could sit and rest or even have dinner!
It was a great night, a tiring one, but still great!
My boss eventually gave me an extra wage tonight for my job well done!
Tomorrow I will post some pictures of the place where I work on weekends, this famous fast food I keep talking about! Now I really need some rest...good night!

Josh Groban - New Album!!!

Well, it s not a "new" album, but a collection of his most famous songs, a " Best of" which will be released in europe this November!
I can't wait!
I really love his music, and his voice, and the guy is completely crazy!
His sense of humor and wit amaze me everyday, ss well as his kindness, his worship and his good attitude... :D
He' s just a great artist!

Pictures!

Well, it is just one picture...but I think it is a nice thing to post it here!



Me and my new friends at the academy ( we're inside a room here, waiting to fill up our papers :D )
For those who don't know me, I am the one with the pink t-shirt and the big grin on her face :P

New friends!

I've been to the city today! This morning I had voice lessons with my voice coach ( she said I'm developing and I'm glad about it :D) whilst this afternoon I went to the academy and enrolled! I'm ufficially a first year student of the musical theatre academy! I still can't believe it! Please don't wake me up! I've seen some of the guys I've met at the audition and I was so happy to know they made it too!! My classmates seem to be nice and I love the idea to share this dream with them!
I've taken a picture of us ( not all of us, though) but I can't post it right now, I'm in a hurry! Late for work...
kisses!
