last day of summer

27.9.11

Today, was a cold day. I can feel the summer ending, my feet getting cold. I didn't really know what to wear on my way to the city. I felt confused. This is the last day of summer. My house is ready but I don't feel excited. I don't really feel like moving out, like losing all my best people. But it is a fresh start after all. And I have always loved fresh starts!
It seems that some Anonymous has made a big entrance in the blog world. I recently got a hate mail in Greek. I 've seen other hate mails on fellow bloggers' blogs but never thought I could get one too. This anonymous person, is actually really bothered with anyone who has got a blog and a personality and claims that my sweets and baked goods are not edible (or good enough for his or her taste, Julia Child of the internet)! Well, I really don't have a problem with his or her opinion. I believe that once you expose yourself and your lifestyle on the internet you have to accept the feedback either it is nice or mean. So, dear anonymous, thank you for your comment and for spending some of your personal time reading and commenting. I am not mad but actually grateful. I've learned to receive others' opinion and thoughts. Oh and I hope that some time I can treat you to some cookies and tea, so that you have actually tried something that I baked. Thanks again!

you're messing with a dreamer

18.9.11

Well, I really couldn't be happier cause I got my dream house. As many of you might now, I am officially now a student and I will be moving out my parents' house. The weeks are going by really fast and I have more and more things to do. Nothing is ready yet, I have to paint the whole house and move all my furniture. I know its going to be crazy but I am really excited about everything.
I'm really not sure how I am going to give up my lovely bedroom. (but I'm taking those lights with me!)

I was saving this particular picture for the end! This, my dear people, is the view from my new home! The building where my new apartment is, is in front of the sea!
So, i baked an apple tart, ate a whole pot of Ben&Jerry's cookie dough ice cream, had mexican dinner,went to a lovely french cafe,drunk special cocoa,spent time in a bookstore... blah blah blah
The most important thing is that this week I'll start packing my stuff, books, clothes etc and on Thursday I am off to Volos.
Also, I am renovating the kitchen as well in my new place and I think I should paint it in a light pink, a baby pink color! A pink kitchen, lovely isn't it?

the weekender

11.9.11

Of all kinds of people, I am certainly the weekender. I spent the weekend with my bff at home,enjoying the pancakes she made for breakfast, listening to Elvis Presley and The Beatles and drinking hot cocoa. The good thing when you're with your bff is you can drink tooo much coffee, sing too loud, lough your ass off and talk, talk, TALK! We also hit IKEA (it has been my second home for the past few weeks) and bought the chairs for my dinning table (yey)! Below is my current home, since my new house is not ready yet.

You're entirely bonkers. But I'll tell you a secret. All the best people are.

2.9.11

This week has been so amazingly beautiful but tiring at the same time. I'm loving this whole new life and I'm sure I will bore you soon with my mumbling but I'm so so so excited! I've been to IKEA 3 or 4 times. I've bought beautiful little thinks, bookcases, tables and a few lambs. I will be going soon again to buy everything else (dishes, glasses, rags, pillows, blankets...etc) I am receiving the most beautiful gifts and I will be soon getting a DSLR! Can't wait to invite you all to my home for tea and cookies!
I will also be sharing with you a lot of tips for your home/place along with the making of my house. I will keep you informed!!! Here are some pictures of my reality lately.
