сегодня мне вспомнилось одно очень замечательное видео, которое я видела пару лет назад и которое меня так вдохновило, что я хотела проделать то же самое в тбилиси. мой друг вызвался помочь, и мы были близки от выполнения этой идеи, но что-то помешало: то ли дела, то ли времени не было. вообщем, так и не вышло.
но я считаю, что это так мило! особенно конец, счастливый трактор и счастливый камаз. доброго вам утра, друзья!
i was introduced to ferzan ozpetek's movies by my good friends nato and fran, who sang a soundtrack from 'mine vaganti' (loose cannons) to me and insisted that i should watch it for sure. and so i did. in that movie, i just loved the main character riccardo scamarcio, believing him to be one of the handsomest men in the world. the scenery was amazing - true italy - with beautiful colours, beautiful people, big and emotional families and fantastic music.
the next ozpetek's movie i saw was 'la finestra di fronte' (facing windows), which i loved even more. the plot had great sense, introducing two love stories impossible on the one hand due to moral issues, but nevertheless beautiful and worth having. the movie had so many beautiful people in it, that it was a true pleasure watching it.
i think that ferzan ozpetek is one of the greatest turkish directors ever, though people who are more familiar with turkish cinema may name other great directors as well, but for me personally ozpetek is amazing because of his ability to make good films with beautiful cast, fantastic soundtracks and cleverly knit stories.
tbilisi is rich in restaurants with great views and i am an often visitor of them because of my beautiful-view-addiction. probably i have been to every place in tbilisi that has a breathtaking scenery opening from its terrace or window.
yesterday i had a dinner in a place with amazing view. 'narikala hills' restaurant was a discovery for me. probably it is best for romantic dinners with candles and soul talks, but i didn't have any chance of this atmosphere because of my friends jokes and funny stories. probably, they will never let us in again, but i highly recommend it to those of you, who love romantic views, nice music and cozy places, which are not full of people.
and here is a cover of my favourite 'let's stay together' by maroon 5. i think such songs are perfect for such views.
i have a nice app on my iphone. it keeps sending me words of the day every evening and thanks to it my english vocabulary has grown substantially. mostly i have no idea of the definition of the words dictionary.com is sending me, but the word i got today i knew for sure.
i know its not midday or afternoon or anything like that, but i'm pretty sleepy and instead of going to my bed, would love to find myself on the picture above, with summer, sun and a river/sea noise on the background. goodnight my dear readers!
always hard to make, but so worth the effort. my good friend told me that in every moment in your life you should decide - you go one way or another. you may have doubts, you may have thoughts and they all will be eating you from inside, but once the decision is made - you are free. you have already decided and you know the path you are taking.
this applies to everything - new job, new haircut, new road you take from home to work, new book you start, new people you meet...
so wish me luck. today i made probably the biggest decision in my life. life-changing and promising better future and lots of positive things.
for so long..you and me been finding each other for so long
tiko and i met in summer 2008, in a dining room of one of the hotels in turkey. we met thanks to my dearest lako and this encounter is probably the biggest present that i got from lako, after her friendship with me of course.
and the feeling that i feel for you is more then strong , girl
if in this world we can talk about soulmates and soulfriends, tiko is probably the best description for that word to me. though raised in two absolutely different countries, absolutely different schools, among absolutely different people, we were raised in very similar families, with principles that are so alike, that sometimes i cannot believe it. but all those things are nothing in comparison to what kind of friends we are now. i have a friend who gets me with half a phrase, half a word, half a letter. and i feel that i often don't even have to say anything, she just gets everything rightaway. during the hardest periods in my life she has been so there for me with all her heart, that i will never ever in my life forget that. she was my mind, my eyes and my heart and she stays there forever in spite of the fact that she lives 1500 kilometers away from me. those 1500 kilometers are absolutely nothing when it comes to our friendship. and all my life i will be learning from tiko how to be such a great person and all my life will be trying to be at least a little bit of such a great friend as she is.
autumn came to tbilisi only yesterday. i was driving with my girls in the evening when i realized that. it was pretty dark and windy, when i stopped the car and let them go out to buy some pastries. and suddenly it felt so cozy. so cozy, that for the first time i felt that i wanted to save this emotion in my head in order to share it with you in my blog later. i managed that with the help of the music that was playing in the car.
the wind was blowing, it was warm inside, cars were driving like crazy, like they always do in tbilisi, the lights were appearing/disappearing and then suddenly a yellow leaf fell on my front window. i looked outside and leaves were flying all over me. they were flying and dancing to the music. to marvin gaye. of course.
