to die would be an awfully big adventure.

This is a music post where I will rec some... hmm... music without lyrics?

What some of you might not know about me is that I love classical music and instrumental music. Mozart, Grieg, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi... I'm a big fan! But I also love movie scores. 

One of my favorite movies is the Peter Pan movie from 2003. Not only is it one of my favorite movies, but it also has some of my favorite music. The track Flying by James Newton Howard is just amazing. It's so full off energy and it always brings me up. I love listening to it, it makes me happy.

James Newton Howard - Flying (Peter Pan)

James Newton Howard - Fairy Dance (Peter Pan)

Other scores he made: King Kong, I Am Legend, The Hunger Games.

Another of my favorite movies, the French movie Les Choristes, does contain lyrics but the music is too beautiful not to post. Listen to it even if you don't understand French, because the music is just beautiful and if it weren't for the fact that I don't believe in heaven and all that, I would guess that it's an angel's voice singing the solo's (it's a little boy!).

Les Choristes - Caresse sur l'océan

Les Choristes - Ave Maria (listen to those voices... crazy!)


65daysofstatic is a band that I know absolutely nothing about that does instrumental music. I just happened to discover one of their songs and I liked it (except for the ending).

65daysofstatic - Drove Through Ghosts To Get Here


Another one of those bands that I know nothing about is Explosions in the Sky. They make some great instrumental music and I discovered them a couple of years ago. Warning: the songs are really long, like 10 minutes. So listen to them before going to bed or something, when you have the time.

Explosions in the Sky - The Only Moment We Were Alone

Explosions in the Sky - Six Days At The Bottom Of The Ocean

Explosions in the Sky - First Breath After Coma


Now some classical music! My favorite is a song by Edvard Grieg that I think most have heard, however, there doesn't seem to be a lot of people who have heard of Edvard. Anyway, he's a Norwegian composer and the song below is ah-mazing. Close your eyes, relax and listen.

Edvard Grieg - Morning (Peer Gynt)


I'm too lazy to write about every composer so I'll just post the rest of my favorite classical songs.

Antonio Vivaldi - Spring 1st Mvt. (The Four Seasons)

Peter Tchaikovsky - Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (The Nutcracker)

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Rondo Alla Turca (The Turkish March)

Antonín Dvo řák - New World Symphony No. 9


I'm going to Italy later this afternoon so I have to go get ready. I won't update the blog if there's no Wi-Fi, so if I don't find any, see you in three weeks :)

i like my money right where i can see it - hanging in my closet.

I just came home with these pretties from the mall :)

I've been looking for shorts with some lace or crochet stuff for quite some time know so it was love at first sight when I saw these. Perfect for the beach or a day in town = the perfect summer shorts!

fashion is not something that exists in dresses only.

Tell me something about yourself that most people don't know about you: I'm really into fashion. You may not notice just by looking at my style but I love clothes. I love lace and vintage, platform shoes, Jeffrey Campbell, bright colors, all things crochet, studs, nail polish, hats, transparent shirts... yeah, the list goes on and on.

Elle Fanning and Lana Del Rey are two of my big inspirations. Elle is so young but I love her style, it's amazing how well dressed she is. And Lana... well, I love the lyrics and sound of her music. It inspires me a lot. AND HER MUSIC VIDEOS. So different and so good. Love them.

Summertime Sadness.

Blue Jeans (watch it).


Next on my "to-buy-before-I-go-to-Italy" list:
- Platform converse (ordered, but haven't got them yet)
- Red heart shaped sunglasses
- A hat
- New bikinis
- Black shorts with studs
- Something with feathers, not sure what though. Haha.

I've also been thinking that maybe I should start posting some of my outfits on here. It'll be fun to look back on next year. Maybe it'll be fun for you as well since I've kind of run out of ideas for this blog. I read quite a lot and go to to cinema every other day but I'm not very good at writing reviews so that is out of the question, haha. Maybe some music posts or some inspirational posts (quotes and pictures)? :) Comments and ideas are very appreciated!

Ciao!

i can't be no superman, but for you i'll be superhuman.

We're already half way through March. March, April, May, June... Only about three months left before summer! I'm starting to get really excited. I've got so many plans. Lazy days out at the lake, spending time with friends in the sun, late summer nights in town, eating ice cream, going to the cinema, taking the bike when you want to go somewhere, family trips... and summer clothes! I'm not a very girly girl and I usually don't wear dresses and a lot of pink but I've started to get really interested in pretty vintage dresses and shoes. Haha. I can't wait to go summer shopping!

This year I will also try to get a summer job. As of right now, I don't really want to work during summer but it's only for two or three weeks and it'll feel good to earn some money and not only take from my parents. It'll be a good experience :) Right now, I have to focus on school though. We've got some finals coming up in not a too long time and I'm contemplating wether I should start studying soon or not.

In other news... The Hunger Games comes out on Thursday! We were a couple of girls who were supposed to go to the premiere but one girl couldn't make it that day so we have to go next Monday instead. I'm a little disappointed because I really wanted to go to the premiere but whatever. I hope the movie won't disappoint!

Okay, so sometimes I get paranoid. Very paranoid. I mean, this blog is on the internet which means that anyone in the world can read it. Even though I'm not that personal on here I still post some pictures and write about my life. Sometimes I think, what if someone I know irl finds my blog? What if my parents read it? What if there's some creep or stalker who comes here? I know that the chance is very small, but still, what if. There really wouldn't be any problem if someone from school or something finds my blog, it's just that I like for it to be a secret. As much as I like you guys, most of you really don't know anything about me and that feels good. It feels like I can write more freely because of that, not sure why. Anyways, what I wanted to say was, that if my blog suddenly is down or anything it's probably because I've gotten too paranoid and deleted it. It probably won't happen though.

I hope you guys had a good day today. It was my first day in school (since the break, that is) and my day didn't start out very nice but it ended up quite good, so I'm happy :)

you fit me better than my favorite sweater.
