Do you believe in miracles?

Not today.

I chose this day to believe in a strong cup of coffee. Si totusi, am crezut ca primul articol citit pe ziua de astazi will change my mind (just maybe). Dau sa intru pe Yahoooo! sa-mi verific e-mail-ul si vad titlu: Man leaves cash to “namesake” towns. And I say to myself (nu what a beautiful world, ci): “Ca sa vezi… sa nu zici ca-l cheama Nicoale, Niculae, Nicholas! Nu de alta, dar asta ar insemna sa fie ceva consecinte nefavorabile la faptul ca mi-am lasat pantofii aruncati prin casa in semn de protest aseara”. Anyway, his name was Douglas. Si Eric. Si Gordon. So I’m safe. Am citit articolul pana la capat and stuck to my principles: it’s not miracles we should believe in, it’s people.

Evident not any people si asta until proven otherwise.

This being said (point being made), happy name day pentru cine se simte!

Head in the Clouds

… the music ain’t loud enough
I can still hear the voices in your head
the choices they’ve chosen to choose temporarily impaired me
I’m terribly proud
if you don’t turn it up louder
I’m breakin’ out
I face the sun when I talk
and I hold his hand as I walk him across the street
got caught inside of a self-taught
it just don’t stop
and I’ll trade you a parable for a probably
… kick this one here for me and my super hero complex
and when I can I’m gonna build a castle that touches the clouds
not to get closer to God
but to get further from ya’ll

The past and the future are irrelevant! The moment is everything:

So don’t worry; and never look back.

Past or future?

If you could and had to only choose one option, would you travel to the past or into the future?

Miuzic for a perfect moment

A soft light, a scent in the air, the quiet murmur of the city.

If you think big only according to size

listen to this speech!

Leo Burnett ( 21 Oct. 1891 – 7 June 1971)
“When you reach for the stars you may not quite get one, but you won’t come up with a handful of mud either”

“He was not the adman’s adman. He wasn’t a hipster like William Bernbach, who tapped into youthcult with the “Think Small” campaign for Volkswagen. “He wasn’t an elegant rationalist like David Ogilvy, whose ads famously advised the rich that a Rolls-Royce was the sensible car to buy. He didn’t even work on Madison Avenue, but in Chicago’s Loop instead. But Leo Burnett, the jowly genius of the heartland subconscious, is the man most responsible for the blizzard of visual imagery that assaults us today. ”

I’m forever blowing bubbles

Movie recommendation: Green Street Hooligans (2005) / Part II – 2009

Tagline: Stand Your Ground And Fight!

Lovely movie, lovely song …

I’m forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air,
They fly so high, nearly reach the sky,
Then like my dreams they fade and die.
Fortune’s always hiding,
I’ve looked everywhere,
I’m forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air.

I’m forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air,
They fly so high, nearly reach the sky,
Then like my dreams they fade and die.
Fortune’s always hiding,
I’ve looked everywhere,
I’m forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air.
(West Ham United Anthem)

I’m dreaming dreams, I’m scheming schemes,
I’m building castles high.
They’re born anew, their days are few,
Just like a sweet butterfly.
And as the daylight is dawning,
They come again in the morning!

When shadows creep, when I’m asleep,
To lands of hope I stray!
Then at daybreak, when I awake,
My bluebird flutters away.
Happiness, you seem so near me,
Happiness, come forth and cheer me!

I’m forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air,
They fly so high, nearly reach the sky,
Then like my dreams they fade and die.
Fortune’s always hiding,
I’ve looked everywhere,
I’m forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air.
(Cockney Rejects, “I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles”)

…and a good, handsom actor

Pete Dunham: So what were you studyin’ before this geezer stitched ya up?
Matt Buckner: [Hesitates] … History
Pete Dunham: History? I teach history!
Matt Buckner: [surprised] You teach?
Pete Dunham: Yes… cheeky slag! History and P.E. What you think the GSE paid a bloody wage? Mate I’m smart as f*ck!

Just Because

Sunt unele chestii pe care nu stiu sa le explic. Si nici nu as vrea. Sunt unele lucruri care trebuie doar sa fie. No reasons involved.

For example, when someone wakes you up in the morning. And you should be mad, as hell. Or at least in a bad mood. And instead, you’re psyched, you’re smiling… inside and outside.

An honest innocent felt real smile.

Just because.

That was the nicest present I got today. A phone call, wake-up call, a nice voice and a lovely song.
Small things that bring a smile on your face are the nicest things in life.

Made my day anyway!

Thanks

P.S. Happy name day, dude!! Same to all dudettes celebrating St. Andrew’s!
