New: Departure [official video] - Mt. Desolation

I just have to say this is amazing. I love it. Polaroid effect ♥. I never thought I'd see Tim Rice-Oxley and Ronnie Vannucci together in a video. Ronnie is alive AND playing the guitar!!
No words really. They put a smile upon my face and I'm very thankful, I needed something like that. Congratulations Mt. Desolation, you're doing it well.
Enjoy it, it's a wonderful song :)

Quotes time: Jacksonville.

There we were, looking at some country window and although we had our problems, we were fine. The sky was blue and the night was all I wanted; let me be your comet, I will fly...

She loves making handicrafts.

I had no classes during the two last weeks so I had to do something in my freetime. If you didn't know, I love making handicrafts. I love origami / paper folding, crocheting, knitting, painting with watercolors... I love doing all those things. So I remembered once I wanted to learn how to make macrame jewelry. FYI macrame is the art of tying knots in patterns or a technique for weaving and knotting cords.
And well, here there are some photos of some of the things that I've made.


I love this flower, it's one of the most beautiful things I've made.

Starbucks: here I come!

New: Flamingo - Brandon Flowers | Science & Faith - The Script.


 

I didn't expect I'd love Brandon's new/first album, Flamingo. I mean, I had been so accustumed to The Killers style/sound that I thought this was going to ruin it all. But it didn't! Surprisingly it didn't. In fact, I can't stop singing to songs like Magdalena (yep, Brandon wrote it to me), I Came Here to Get Over You, Was It Something I Said?, The Clock Was Ticking, Only The Young (I think this is my favourite one) and Hard Enough. Very nice album really. Can't wait to buy it! (It hasn't been released in Argentina yet :\)
___________________________________________________________


Another new album that I really like is Science & Faith, The Script new album. They keep the style of the first album. My favourite songs are For The First Time, Science & Faith, Walk Away, If You Ever Come Back and Long Gone and Moved On. Also waiting for it to be released.

Friday, I'm in love.

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you

It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Oh, Thursday doesn't even start

It's Friday, I'm in love

Double rainbow all the way!

This is completely random but needs to be seen. You might just experience 2 minutes of solid laughter.

But FIRST you must watch this video. It's not necessary to watch it complete, it gets a little annoying (and weird if you know what I mean) after the first minute :P but if you want to watch it complete it's ok.



So, once you've done that, watch this:
(Thanks Tommy Bowen for letting me know this, I've been laughing for almost half an hour xD)



If you didn't notice the song is made with the audio of the first video xD

What am I doing with a big pair of metal scissors in one hand and a lighter in the other hand?

I leave it up to your imagination.

Letter to Mr. Bellamy.

Dear Mr. Bellamy,

I'm still thinking about forgiving you.
So because I haven't been at Wembley I'm not a real fan?! Outrageous.
Just come and give a show here, in Buenos Aires and you'll get speechless.
You have a big big mouth Matt, I'm not the only angry and resentful fan. Most of the musers who weren't at Wembley think the same.
So you'd better apologise soon.
Yours sincerely,

K.

PS: Love you anyway, you'll never read this though.

Quotes time: Lift.

You lift my spirit, take me higher, make me fly; touch the moon up in the sky, when you are mine. You lift me higher, take my spirit, make it fly; where all new wonders will appear...

Mountains beyond mountains - Back in the city!

I'm back in Buenos Aires! Back to "reality". Bleagh. But this past week has been quite fun (if not particularly educational after all). I've been in the province of Jujuy in the north of Argentina for six days!
So, six days is a long time, and there's no way I'll be able to fit in/remember everything we did, but I'll give it a go.
Anyways, all 90 students and staff met up at school early Thursday morning to head off. Everybody loaded the massive piles of luggage onto a double-decker omnibus and we left.
We had a nice (please, notice my sarcasm) thirty one hour ride, most of which I spent listening to music and reading a magazine I had bought just a little before we set off and finally, after 1609 km we arrived in the province of Jujuy.
The hotel was located in the town of Tilcara. It's a cute little village, really. Few people but some beautiful scenery. We stayed in there in little cabañas all arranged for us.
The first day in Tilcara we did nothing. I mean, as we arrived late we put off the tour we were supposed to have. So we make the most of the situation and took a shower, arranged our stuff, took some photographs, etc. (I have lots of photos to show you, hope you don't get bored lol.)
The next days were exhausting, really really exhausting. We spent the whole four days walking and walking through mountains and valleys, we almost got burnt by the sun, water didn't seem enough... It was also much more difficult to breathe at that altitude: I got winded just from climbing up a few meters! We ended up knackered.
But I think the refuge day was the worst of all. The place was freezing. Icy wind fail. It was a pretty view but we were too busy huddling together for warmth to be able to appreciate it.

But anyway, you know? I had nice days after all, culture in there is very interesting, the landscape is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen...
Yeah, I had been there thousands of times but this one was very different, it made me appreciate a lot those places.

Ok, so since this has been super long, I'm just going to end this blog post. Believe me when I say this took me a long time to write, my English is not so good and I've put in a lot of effort so if there's a mistake, please correct me.

Oh and if you wanna see the pictures, here you are: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2067126&id=1229765575&l=75b479a119

Hope you missed me :P I'll write again soon.
Lots of love

K.
