~ Grandmother ~

Last sunday I went to visit my grandmother's birthday.
To the commoner this might be nothing too special, but in my case it was.

I haven't been able to visit her in 10 years because of family troubles, and she's my only living grand parent left.
Her face looks so much like the way i remembered her... but her body and mind do seem to have tackled down..

I remembered her as this tall lady (I was only 10 back then) and now she was shorter then me, even if she did manage to get her back straight, which seemed to have become a rather hard thing to manage to her..

Besides her I also came to meet some others of my dad's family line, including the brothers of my passed away grandfather, those gave me quite the memorial shock...
All their faces looked nearly exactly like my grandfather's! 'twas nearly as if seeing a ghost o.o
remarkable...

To go here, I had to choose between going to a friend's birthday party (which would have been the first friend who invited me in a very long time a swell..) or my grandmother's where I might find myself clogged up between the painful memories of the family troubles.
But after all I'm glad I made the choice to go to my grandmother's, because that was a once in a lifetime opportunity to see her at-least once more.

~ Spirited and ever changing. ~

Hello all, it's been a while..

I've never been really good at keeping up blogs, I always tend to loose interest after a very short while, and this is not only in blogging but with other things in live as well really.

Like with musical tastes, somehow I seem to change favorite albums every few weeks or months (though I doubt that I'm the only one in this specific matter), and lately i've been obsessed with a japanese pop/rock band that goes by the name of "Iceman". And to be more specific, with their keyboard player/music composer named Daisuke Asakura.

I just love his lively music, his style, the way he seems to sink away in his playing while live on stage (in YouTube movies, YouTube is really rather handy..) and how he rallies on the public to sing/shout along with his songs =)

I just generally love it when an artist gives so much of his spirit into his/her art like that, I love spirited people ~.^

~ Flourishing up the place ~

As you can see, i'm editing the CSS of this place to make it a bit more lively, flowerly and homely ^^
in other words, i'm personalising this page to bloomely status =3

So far, i've only changed the banner on top, but i'm gonna look and see if i can do more to this page, like background (shouldn't be hard), perhaps a little more greenish coloring (probably fairly easy) and if i can find my self in it, perhaps a Logo placement :D (if i can find a nice place, and able to position the image ^^)

Editing the template is fun :3nod:

~ Miele di Erica Arborea ~

These days are like
orange, heather-scented
globules of honey
that drip lazily and succulently,
cloud-free,
crystallized,
sealed just as delicately
as this flower-flavoured kiss

Just a beautifull poem to break the ice,
thought it would make a nice start for this new blog n_n
