Twenty-one

I've always loved celebrating my birthday, cooking and baking and cleaning and getting everything ready for my guests. Yesterday, it was my 21st birthday. Can't believe it yet, how can I be this age. But, suddenly and unlike other people, I do not feel old, I feel young, so very young and free and full of energy to spare and give to the world. I want to jump, and run, and ride my bike, and travel, and give a kiss, receive a kiss, scape, return, have a lot of many different experiences. I feel like I have the world all in one same path, all waiting for me to put my boots on and walk through it until my star lights out. I think, I think I'm gonna do it... I'm gonna put my boots on and walk straigh to whatever it comes, always with a smile ^^

A lot of people came home to celebrate my bday. I loved at one moment when I stopped carrying juice and coffe and looked how everyone where laughing and talking and eating, so happy, so gathered, all of them there with me creating this small and safe place in the world where everything was perfect and happy and sweet.
I thank them all like a thousand times but I still feel I can thank them more, they made me so happy and I'm not sure they understood how important they are for me, how wonderful was for me to be there with me around this pink with green words cake (carried by Hagrid of course!).

It's been a year since I started this blog. A year!! And I learnt a looooot of things, silly ones and important ones. This year, nevertheless, I feel is gonna be so much better, so more full of experiences -even maybe a kiss-. I'm so excited!


Alright, this is everything for now.
Today I've learn: I do love people, I do I do.
Kisses and hugs, Safi.

Operation Potter


Due to the coming of the latetest Harry Potter film, some friends and me decided to put our mark on this last moments throught the HP movement (I mean the end of the book series and movies). So, we thought of using our art facilities to leave this mark we wanted.
The idea that came up was about drawing and printing HP pictures like Dobby or Voldemort and then make as many copy as our pocket could afford, so then stick them all over our University and around our city. We were very excited about this but we got even more excited when someone started to answer our drawings with a little paper with the Deathly Hollow's simbol and the inscription "The end is near"... I think it was then when we began to feel that what we were doing was going to be big.
Yesterday I created a group on Facebook for this movement and it immediately started to receive applicants. We were so thrilled, so freaking happy!!!
So yes, as Harry Potter fans we took the matter in our hands and then turn it on art and free expression... a message to the world that for us -Harry Potter fans- this books are not just random novels but our very own childhoods, books with great and valuable lessons that marked our lifes for ever.

Here's the link to Operation Potter: Operation Potter
Check it out!!!

Alright... this is everyhting for now.
Have a nice week!

Today I've learn: I like to talk with mystery!!

Autumn leaves

I adore Autumn. I love how everything radically changes in nature during this time of the year, how browns, reds, yellows and oranges come out from trees, grass, flowers and even the sky itself. Oh, the autumn sunsets are just the best in my opinion; so worm and peaceful... the perfect moment to read or draw outdoors, or just sit and listen to some of your favourite music.
Also, during autumn I feel happy and joyful almost every day. I like wearing woolen hats and scarves and gloves and coats. I feel like I also wear the trees that leave their leaves fall to the grass everywhere painting the ground, making an amazing collage, or that this cool new air brings me perfums from far away, from some cold and yellow land where irish lullabies sounds while the sun goes up and down in the horizon.

One of my birthday presents was a box with a painted Gryffindor crest (my friend painted it!!) and it contained a book: The Alchemyst by Scott Michael (which I already started reading!), and I had to decide what would I use the box for. I wanted it to keep something valuable, so at the end I decided I'll use it to put the books I'm reading at the moment so they won't lay on my bedroom carpet, and when I put them inside (I'm reading three at the time) I felt this Harry Potterish feeling that I was actually the owner of a Gryffindor trunk like the one Harry uses!! ^^ So magical... and then I remembered that with my friends wanted to go to the Wizarding World that will be soon be opened its doors!!! I wish we had the money!

Anyways, today was a nothing day... nothing extraordinary happened nor I did anything special; so this autumn-Harry Potter-books theme is everything I'll write for today, until tomorrow.

Today I learnt: I like the convination of green and fucsia.


See ya soon, lads!
XOXO
