Books, story and more

Hello readers,

Just a short story that I'll post later in the week. or maybe later on..,
Not officially back yet...don't feel ready and still some things to figure out...as I see the time flying by, a bit too fast and I feel overwhelmed...September and the Fall (Autmun) aren't too far away now...many challenges are waiting....but the questions that lately I've been asking myself is: 'How do I make everyone happy?' Answer to be discover later on....All the best, take care and especially indulge yourself! :) In the meantime, please forgive me but the story I'm about to share today is only a draft...it might evolve with time, thanks for your patience! :)

To make your wait....

Synopsis: Allie is one Sarah's cousine (Sarah is the main character of 'the wedding kiss, book I'm currently trying to finish, book will be part of several adventures...but chut! that's a secret! lol) and since she is little, she loves to sing and compose a few songs. She isn't sure whether she wants to be famous, she mostly enjoys singing for herself...but one day, her best friend sends a demo to a record compagny....from there everything changes...Allie has choice to make...will she take a chance of a lifetime or will she continue to live her life as she see fit? How will she handle the pressure? 

More later on....needs a few adjustements....thanks for understanding....:) In the meantime, if you love going to the cinema like I do....please run and go to see 'The Guardians of the Galaxy' (the latest Marvel movie) fun and refreshing, full of actions humour and heroes, nice soundtrack as well! :) and 'Lucy' SF movie (OK, I might not always love SF but this one is worth the detour....) main actor/actress really good and you can learn a lot about the brain...you'll see! :)
Or maybe if you love to read as well...to turn the page and escape in another world for a little while, go and read 'The one plus one' by Jojo Moyes (you can also like Me before you, a very emotional story by the same author...tears garanteed, tissues must be available! I've written an article a few years ago..must here somewhere :) nice and happy story...following Jess and her two children, meeting Ed.....there lives change for the better....:) showing you that you can still believe! :)
'Written in the stars' by Ali Harris is nice too, if you liked the movie Sliding doors, it's in the same idea...:)

That's all for today, take care, xxx

Just to say hi :)

Hello readers, no sorry I'm not officially back just yet, (time off extended), not that I'm forgetting you but I've still got a few things to take care off and figuring things out...no worries I'm on the right track...hopefully! Thanks for understanding :) x

I just wanted to say hi and if you've got nothing else to do on a Sunday for example, go and see 'Begin Again', a sweet and refeshing story with good actors. A movie that deserves to be seen...to lose yourself in the music and have your own dreams, showing you that nothing is impossible and believe in second chances! :) So, if you're going to see it, I hope you'll enjoy it as I did! :)

Here is an extract, more specifically, a song...enjoy! :) 'A step you can't take back'

Take care! See you around! xxx

P.s= Do you know Cecelia Ahern? She's the authors of 'One Hundred Names', How to fall in love (more recently) and of course P.s I love you...! :)
Well, I recently learned that one her books, after making a more or less good (sorry still loved the book!) adaptations of P.S I love you (2007...if I remember correctly?), another movie adaptations has been made apparently and this time they have chosen...'Where rainbows end?', at first it's a letter novel, I mean by that, that both characters, long the novel, are communicating through letters and emails and texts and phone(?), to check, it's not your usual novel but you don't mind and lose yourself in the most extraordinary love story between Rosie and Alex...(I hope I got the names right, I read the book five or four years ago...as you can see it has been a while but I remember I couldn't keep reading...:) It was so good...you have to know how it ends!) Well, they have made a movie...and I really wonder (after seeing the trailer) how it is going to be...I'm aware it's not always easy to malke movie out of a book (see the Twilight saga or Hunger Games or...Harry Potter or Divergent (haven't seen that one though) but sadly studios, I noticed, only think about the money (how many green billet they will make!) forgetting about the quality...:( grrr....which is...stupid really but what can you do? So...we have to wait and see...:) I'll let you know whether or not I'm going to see it...!?

And a special dedicace...to a wondeful dog that I loved very much and left us recently! I'll miss you, always in my heart! Big kisses! xxxxxx :)

Time off

Dear readers, hope you're all OK in this start of a new month and are enjoying the spring ! :)

Just a short article today, I won't be too long. I just wanted to inform you that for personal reasons, I'll be taking some time off. I'll not be writing for a while and don't know yet when I'll be writing my next article. I'm not forgetting you, don't worry.  Lately, (you might have seen the previous articles), I haven't been well and have many things in my mind. Mainly, my decisions to take some personal time to figure out things. Thanks again for being here and all the best! :) take care, happy Easter in advance (Hum, I love chocolate!), and see you around! :)

To make you wait:

Love that song! And the movie is quite fun too! :) 'Let it go', Frozen Soundtrack-Demi Lavato Enjoy! :) xxx

Just to say hi

Dear readers, I hope you're all Ok or once again better than me lately....my mood is (really) down...I wish I didn't feel that way but I apparently do...it feels frustating most of the time...and I'm the one that can fix it...I have many things in my mind lately and I can't stop worrying, realizing (have been aware of that before but it's even more real now) that growing-up is nice but also a challenge, making you see things differently in a way. Many things changes, not that I mind, on the contrary, just that sometimes life goes on quite fast...and before you know, you're an adult. Not too bad I reassure you( rire) :) in any case, I still have some things to figure out...sorry to keep bothering you with that, it just feel nice to put words (sorry I repeat myself^^) on how you feel sometimes, it helps! Anyway, thanks for listening again and I hope to see you around soon for another article, hopefully more cheerful. :) Take care, xxxx

P.s: before you leave, here is a litte treat! I couldn't resist! and if you don't know it already (rire), this TV show is one my favorite! it has been there for me, I don't how many times, I lost count; but no matter what, it's here, making me laugh and cry at the same time. They were colorful and great characters,all roll in one! :) I still miss it sometimes! :) xx And I miss my friends too! :)

'I'll be there for you...' :) xxx

Quotation-2

Dear readers, hope you're all OK or at least slighly better than me lately as I reckon my mood has been still more down than up....grrr...many things in my mind...

Fortunately, Jane Austen, reading books as always,thinking about current or future stories, watching multiple re-runs of one of the best TV show ever...Friends, can't get enough of them (smile) and listening to classical music (very relaxing and recommanded!) help! :) the sunny weather that we have had too!
Anyway, I hope I don't bother you too much with that...not that I do but maybe you'd prefer more cheerful articles! Competly understandable, it just helps to talk about it...so thanks for listening :)

Just a short article tonight..., I'll see you soon for another article! I'm aware I'm not writing very often, but it  doesn't mean I'm forgetting you (smile) just that I like to write when inspired rather write for writing...you probably already know that!
 Before leaving, a little quotation from one of my favorite authors! :) well, for a treat, maybe two! And to say, Jane Austen had a nice sense of humour! :)

'The person, be it a gentleman or lady, who has no pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.' Henry Tilney, Northanger Abbey (Hum...very true, smile) :p

And another one: 'To marry for money I think the wickedest thing in existence.' Catherine Morland, Northanger Abbey (very wise remark) :) she may have her head in novels (mostly Gothic) but she has her heart in the right place!

Both quotations come from the book 'Jane Austen, A treasure' by Constance Moore (2013)

Take care, good luck for everything! :) xxxx

Spring time! :)

Dear readers, I hope you're all OK! I won't be too long today...just wanted to say hi and share one or two pictures...to make your smile and celebrate the start of the spring after a long and rainy winter, although we always need water...(but that's just me^^) :) Enjoy! :) Sorry in advance if the quality isn't great, I took them with my mobile, although it' s fairly knew, so it should be OK! :)

Here it goes! :)

That's true! :) couldn't resist! 

An a funny image ..! .if you can't read well, it says: - 'Mm...The British are obviously warmer people than I thought...'
and the rest, as you can see is visible...but it also says: 'And I say you're not properly dressed!' :) both images above are taken from a small book titled: 'How to be British!' It's quite funny! :)
Yeah, well...I couldn't resist too when I saw it...and it resume perfectly doesn't it? I indeed Love books! :)
 Picture taken from the Waterstones bookshop in Cambridge! :) Great idea isn't ? :)
And of course, all that with warm cup of coffee (or tea) can be real good! :)

Ok, there might be more than two pictures...lol take care and see you soon for another article! And a last treat before you leave:
Katie Melua-new song: 'Where does the ocean go?' from her new album (that I really like and recently bought) 'Ketevan'! :) xxx hope you'll like it as much as I do! :)

Friends

Dear readers, hope you're all OK since my last article or at least better than me lately...my mood has been more down than up and I really don't like it...many things in my mind...mostly in relation with starting to be independant and to find a job...not always easy, it still stresses me , it mostly scares me...feel a bit lost-I might repeat myself a bit but never mind-kind of lost in the ocean...though I hope it'll be OK...:)



The Rembrants- "I'll be there for you"

What has been helping-I know I have watched this TV show a millions time (it has made my lovely family crazy a few times^^), I have lost count but never mind, it doesn't get old at all, doesn't have any wrinkles and you still ended up having a good time, laughing with those colorful characters, that even though they can't be a bit annoying, you still love them no matter what happened! :) Isn't it great? I'm of course talking about of one  the best show ever...have you guessed?- it's....Friends!!!!!!!!!!! Can't help it!!!! I love that show, it has always be there ( a bit like the generic song^^) for me whenever I need...whenever I need a tonic, or just to laugh or cry, it's here! :) No questions asked! It just make me miss my friends that I don't get to see often these days...but hey, life is life... and as long as we stay in touch/ be there for each other...I'm always happy...:) it still a really great show! And this year, it will be 20 years old that the first season has been aired on TV and started to be popular all over the world! :) making us laugh and dream during 10 seasons and over 200 episodes! I still miss them and NYC adventures as funny as they always were after the last episodes aired 10 year ago now and often wonder what could have happened if they had continued but maybe in the end, it is best or it might have been different...I don't know...:) anyway, just a little souvenir: (see video above). hope it's working or you know where to find it! :)

Just an image as a souvenir....:)

Or just for fun....:) I couldn't resist! :) Enjoy! Of course they are many as you might have guess, it's hard to choose, so you can also look at them on youtube! :)


Take care and see you soon for another article hoping to be more cheerful! xxxx

P.S= Please watch it in English (rire)....it's better and the joke are funnier than when you watch in...French for example or...in another language! Maybe I'm started to be a bit snob....but sorry it's better!! otherwise it wouldn't be the same...anyway, enjoy! sorry couldn't resist! Happy re-runs....or re-re...runs! lol :)
