It Was Only A Kiss

One of the best music videos I have ever seen!

It goes perfectly with the song...and something about it is just soooo magical...the costumes, The way the lead singer (Brandon Flowers) looks when he sings. He has an amazing presence!

Isn't is interesting how they made the girl look so innocent? With all the makeup, and the hair...and yet somhow you can just tell she's not innocent at all...

By far one of my favorite videos of all time...It feels like a dream. It's so symbolic. It brings back 80s music with a modern twist...which is genius.

I used to hear this song on the radio alot. But after listening to it over and over for the past hour, It's taken over me...and after seeing the video...It's like finding a whole new world.

"Jealousy
turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr Brightside"

Lullaby For A Stormy Night

"little child, be not afraid

though rain pounds harshly against the glass

like an unwanted stranger,

there is no danger

I am here tonight..."

"little child, be not afraid

though thunder explodes and a lightning flash

illuminates your tear-stained face

I am here tonight..."

"...and someday you'll know

that nature is so...

the same rain that draws you near me

falls on rivers and land, on forests and sand

makes the beautiful world that you'll see

in the morning..."

"for you know, once even I was a little child,
and I was afraid
but a gentle someone always came
to dry all my tears, trade sweet sleep for fears
and to give a kiss goodnight...


well now I am grown
and these years have shown that rain's a part of how life goes
but it's dark and it's late so I'll hold you and wait
til your frightened eyes do close..."


"In the morning...everythings fine in the morning..."

(Lyrics from: Vienna Teng- Lullaby For A Stormy Night)

Ten Million Fireflies

I had a dream that My mom was letting me fly out to Canada all alone to see a super special exclusive Fall Out Boy concert...I was wearing the most colorful outfit ever...I think it was something like a bit of a puffy skirt with a rainbow striped shirt and my Fall Out Boy shirt I got from the last concert on top of it.

Pete Wentz (the cool bassist :D ) was on my plane somehow...and he kept smiling and staring at me...then I talked to him very casually...

That was simply a small part of my dream...lots more happened but If I told it all, It would possibly take up a very very long post...

So, Yesterday after returning from a fabulous weekend with Bri...I realized that I am quite sick...

Today was supposed to be holiday from school...but of course the ONE time I get sick it has to be on a day off...just my luck, huh?

But since I will be home pn this beautiful Monday, what can I do for fun? Well Of course...drink my tea and listen to music!

so what music has been keeping me alive lately?

WATCH THIS WHOLE VIDEO AND FOCUS ON THE AMAZING LYRICS! seriously...It's soooo beautiful. Owl City is very unique and fantastic...I just recently bought his newest album, Ocean Eyes, from Target...go get one. It includes this song and many others.

If you like him, check out his songs: Vanilla Twilight, Fuzzy Blue Lights, Meteor Shower, and Rainbow Veins :) I linked each of them to a youtube video of the song!

So, I want you all to tell me what dreams You've been having lately and What music You've been into! Always suggest new music to me so I can feature it! And you know I love finding new artists! :)

Yes, I have Returned...

I'M BACK! yes, here I am darlings!

My absence was due to the horrible nightmare known as School...and many other things :p but now that I've settled in and its not really so nightmarish anymore, I'm glad to be back :D

So, with a new school year, comes a new schedule...and mine is very interesting indeed!

1. Language Arts
2. Advanced Drama
3. Math
4. Science
5. French
6. Once Apon A Time*
7. Social Staudies
8. Tech Theater II

*once apon a time is a class ALL about fairytales, and different authors and versions of fairytales :) Amazing, right?

No cute guys this year...but some very interesting people. 8th frade is scary...so many labels, so much peer preessure, so many people doing things that make me look way too innocent. It's scary for sure.

But I suppose this is what 8th grade is all about...hook-ups, break-ups, friends, pressure, tears...like one of those cheesy teen drama shows! But without those things we wouldn't have the smiles afterwards...so I'm glad :)

Also, for the new school year...I've been adding stuff to my room...lots of stuff! My bulliten board is so full now! Remember when I first posted about it? It barely had anything on it! Now, I can't find any room to put new pictures on :D Oh, and now my walls have loads of new posters on them!





and now since I must leave you...I have some homework to do...I'll leave you with a little gift:

NeverShoutNever is an unsigned artist who is simply AMAZING! His music has a very sweet feel to it and he's all about living free and being happy :) This video can turn any bad day into the best day ever! Because...you're only as tall as your heart will let you be, and only as small as the world will make you seem...make everyday count darlings!!!

so, tell me how this new school year has been going for you!

(by the way, be sure to keep up with me on twitter!! http://twitter.com/Lenore_lolita)

Pyramids and Micheal Jackson

Hello! I have been absent for a while...And I'm sorry, I guess I was still too busy with this amazing City, Cairo!!

I'll miss it here when I leave :(

Apparently I was born right in front of the Nile River! And now I get to come back to where I was born after being gone for a whole year :) I feel as if the Nile itself flows through my veins...and it always will...

I've also been busy getting over the excitement of Sprinkle's blog post on me!! :)

She did an amazing job...better than I ever imagined!

I'm so glad she did this for me...

I just got done watching this amazing and inspiring movie!! Ahhhhh, so sweet! Makes me really want to go back and live in the 80s and dance to Micheal Jackson...

Hmmm...I think I'm gonna try and learn how to do the Thriller Dance! :) And as for Friday's music Video...I have been hooked on Regina Spekor lately!! And this song is just sooooo bittersweet and inspiring...and such a pretty music video...so artistic! :)

Well...that's it for now!! Hope You all had a fantastic week!! see ya sweethearts!

Crashing Waves and Purple Nail Polish

Hello! I got back from the beach today...and it was fantastic!

I stayed at two different Beaches In Alexandria. Cleopatra lived there! At the first beach, I stayed with some family from my Dad's side, including all my cousins, and we had a blast!

The second one, is one i went to since I was about 2...we stayed for a few weeks, then the past two days one of my best friends stayed with me! We swam, and of course, stayed on the internet.

We came home today, and I feel a Bit sick :( I woke up very nauseaus and felt that way now and then through-out the day. But I'm very glad to be home In my apartment in Cairo with my beautiful city lights :)

By the way, I have been obsessed with a few things lately...

In music, I have been obsessing over Laura Marling (Of course!!) And Carter Hulsey! Now, if you read my blog you MUST know laura marling, In fact the song playing right now on my playlist (The first one, Ghosts) is by her :) My amazing mommy, ordered me a whole bunch of albums off Amazon, and one of them is her debut album: Alas I Cannot Swim :)

And Carter Hulsey is just so fantastic...I love his songs Mariana and Dumbo with a passion.

Now, when it comes to style, I'm very much obsessing over Purple nail polish and HUGE sunglasses :)

Usually in summer,when I'm always barefoot and at the pool or beach, I love to have a pedicure, and I ALWAYS have a manicure. And I love a dark, shiny, fun shade of purple

And who doesn't love huge sunglasses? Even though they are far too huge for my face :)

Oh! Big thanks to Sprinkle for helping me out with the new layout and style of my blog! She is just born for this stuff :) wuv you!

Music Video for friday!

Although most of you must have already seen it, I love this video! So much fun, amazing song, and it just makes me want to make me wake up in vegas :)

See ya later sweethearts!
