Treasure Cove - March 30th

Hello, beauitfuls!

Is it Sunday already? Well, times goes quite fast.
Holidays are almost over. I start classes on Tuesday. Back to reality, homeworks, students council stuff...as much as I would like to get back to my daily exercise routine, I don't really want to go school for two reasons:
First, because I'm tired of it. I just don't have any subjects I really like, and I think most of my professors have been slacking a little lately. Maybe it's all because I'm so thrilled about going to art school and about studying and learning things I actually like and enjoy. I can't wait to go!
But on the other hand, the other reason I don't want to go back it's because it's gonna be officially the beginning of the end. Clock's ticking...and this semester has passed away so fast, and so will this two months left. And then it's graduation. High school's over and it's time for all of us part away. I've known most of my friends since kindergarten or at least for more than a couple years, and we're a all going to different cities, two of my best friends to Canada for a year, other to travel around Europe, and even when some if us will coincide in the cities we're going, it's not gonna be the same. Still I know I will remain forever close with most of them.

It's going to be weird running the blog in school days, because I started this blog not quite long ago, and I've been working on it during holidays. But it's not going to be hard.

Now, I found some interesting this week...

1. Red Leather Diary.
   Reclaiming a life through the pages of a lost journal, this journal, rescued by New York Time's young writer, was more than half a century forgotten in a dumpster. It brings back to life the glamorous story of an extraordinary, high-class young woman. For five years, not a day is missed.
   Horseback riding around Central Park, trips to Paris, London, Rome; art, dances, tea at Scharfft's and toasts at El Morocco, displaying the old New York's glamour.
   I think this book/journal would be an amazing read, and would truly show us how girls were back then.
   Talking about Mary Poppins.
   I can't wait to get this book.
2. Artist's block?
   Here's some inspiration, or more like 50 pages of it.
   Got it from Gala's Carousel.
3. Calling all aspiring Jackson Pollocks!
   Now you can create your own masterpiece.
   Click here for a good, solid dose of stress relief.
4. 8 keys to instant charisma.
   Great piece. Something we should all know and learn.
5. Chair Couture.
   I love chairs. Don't ask why, I simply do.
   Go see for yourself.
6. What Puma & Adidas have to do with the Nazis.
   Quite very interesting.

I hope you had an amazing week, and please do enjoy your Sunday leisure with these links I give you.
Now I go to eat some lunch.

Treasure Cove

Hello, bunnyheads!
Happy Easter!
Did you found many hiding eggs?
I think everyone should look for eggs on Easter Day, it's so cute.
When I was little every Easter Day, my grandfather would wake my sister and me and we'd look everywhere around the garden for easter eggs, chocolate eggs and lots of candies. I was nostalgic today remembering that forgotten tradition.
If you don't celebrate well at least eat a chocolate or two, let's celebrate the Sunday!

I've got something for you. It's a Treasure Cove. A weekly Treasure Cove!
I happen to be quite an observer and a net-surfer, and often enough, I find very special treasures here and there. You see, treasures can be found everywhere. If you know where to look.
Hey, you just walked past one!

Just like Gala's Carousel and Miss Couturable's Sunday Six, I will post every week, some of the treasures I've found during the week.

Treasure Cove - Sunday, March 23rd

1. One of my best friends sent me the link to this video just a while ago.
   He said, "Hey you've got to watch this! It's the best music video you'll ever see!"
   And he was right.
   One of the best songs ever, and one of the best performances ever.
2. Twenty-something, Mae Jane, is in the middle of Quarter-Life Crisis.
   But aren't we all?
   Her blog is an artful manifesto about living life: a call to seize the day, and follow our own lead. Why settle with "normal" when you can have "extraordinary"?
   Full of awesome, speaking art, doc.u.menting, is worth checking out.
   Give it a read, this girl has something to say.
3. This picture:
   
   All right, all right. I didn't find this. But I took it. That counts.
   Right from the middle of the ocean just for you.
4. Blah, blah, blah. We talk our days away, but the truth is, we're terrible talkers.
   I found this in Gala's this week Carousel. I found it quite interesting, because communication is everything.
   I give you... 250 things you wish you know that will guarantee your speaking success.
   It helps to know these kind of things, even when you don't usually talk in public, and if you do, well then it might be very useful.
   (Last semester I had to give a speech in front of around 800 people + judges, and it can be quite terrifying.)
   5. And finally, a treasure I found in my drawer the other day. My old ipod, oh, how much I miss it. I bought a new ipod last December, and I love it, but I haven't been able to manage to extract all the music from the old one yet, and it contains lots of music I love.
   The battery died so it always had to be plugged. Quel drag!
   Luckily, I remembered my speakers work as a battery charger too, so I can listen to it again. Do you hear that? Memories coming from the speakers.
