Usually I prefer radio versions to live ones, but there are still some songs that sound better in live. For example this one. Randomly stumbled upon it while watching this video - Norman Salumäe singing Paolo Nutini’s “New Shoes”.
I am still troubled with this version of Wordpress though, because it doesn’t support YouTube videos. So oh well, just click the link then.

Some holiday everyone here needs to and wants to celebrate. Thank god it was all rainy - so people avoided going nuts. You imagine, TV warned people not to get too drunk in that day. There have been cases, when people have lost their track and literally not knowing where they are. How much you need to drink to get that far? Crazy.
Much rain.

The craziest smoke.

“There’s no such thing as a mistake. You get nervous, but you sing anyways.”
Says Vanessa Redgrave in a movie called “Evening“. I watched this movie yesterday and it was quite good.
This is good too though I haven’t heard the original song…

The story wasn’t dully foreseeable and it was enjoyable to watch because of all the unexpected twists. For example - something happened, but during the film you realize it never took place after all. That’s the one thing you must prepare yourself for, when seeing film about writing a book.
In general this film was filled with secret nostalgia and sadness. The main character wasn’t Keira nor James, it was Romola. She robbed her sister’s (played by Keira) happiness and she was tormented by it for the rest of her life. It’s very much like in real life, when sometimes you wish that things would have been different, but you can’t chance them anymore. Only in your imagination…or in your head (in this story) you can chance them. This time it was a book. The saddest way to give back one’s happiness.
The camera work was excellent. Unexpected details, camera angles and the plot generally was exquisite.

I just realized that liverworts are the main content in my flora album. It’s always good to add some more.

One woman’s struggle to get noticed in the acting field. Ellie Parker is an actress auditioning for different film roles and never getting anything serious. Her life is busy, running from one audition to another, chancing parts like shoes ( I mean she chanced her clothes while driving a car, how crazy is that?!).
Soon she realizes that getting a Hollywood acting career can be really hard and tiresome; she loses herself while doing it and in one point she decides to quit. She calls to her friends, with whom she hadn’t spoken for a long time and tries to catches up her life. Soon after she gets an invitation to try for another audition – this time for real, but nothing really works out. So it’s not even really clear for the end of the film, whetever she quitted the business for good or not.
Naomi Watts gives an outstanding performance and the fact that the film was not filmed in a typical Hollywood way, made it more closer and real.
Maybe it was because the DVD was really cheap it sort of hacked the video and was too slow. A definite minus and because of that it was somewhat hard to watch. Duh.

Exactly one week ago our beloved dog Tipsu left. It’s the saddest time to endure. Although he had a really serious illness, there’s always something you can do, but sometimes you are just too afraid to do it (read: castration). It would have helped, but who knows for how long… Tipsu wasn’t just a dog - he was human… or even more.

Brilliant! The leading character was just enchanting, an excellent choice. If you enjoy fairytale-like adventures then it’s strongly a must-see. Our society needs more people filled with such fantasy and charisma.
I have scanned a huge picture of this movie, which I found from a magazine, see it here.
