A movie I only recently discovered (TinnyLinda surely has seen it) but unconditionally recommend.
has been included in time magazine's top 100 movies of the century

Ah darn. Can someone explain to me what's with the sunday preschool melancholy syndrome? I mean I get so blue on Sundays.

Not as soon as I wake up though. The "depression demon" crawls slowly towards me as I'm done with lunch (btw if you're a Greek that would a little after 2 pm).

And even if i follow the "downtown" advice well Petulia sorry. It rarely works for me.Ok so I may feel a bit better but when i come back home at say..8? oh man.. there I go feeling all moody and philosophical again.

Who is harder on oneself' than yourself?

I know that whenever I'm not efficient enough at work or wherever... I start telling myself off.

And then, there is another self of mine who starts telling the other myself to shut up and stop being so harsh.

At the end of the day how many selves are there in here?

In the past I thought it was just me, but it appears as though there's a whole.... Raz breed!

And living with all of them is as exciting and as weird as it can be;-)

This post is not about Tori's brilliance, Tori's bewitching persona. This is all there, it's all understood and felt by (hopefully) all of us.

With the beginning of a new year I feel that it's time to write about positive changes in our lives. I'm trying to overcome any negativity. And boy there is a lot of that out there and in here (i.e. myself).

A lot of you guys and you seem to know who you are, contribute in making my day. No. My life, and probably yours either, is not about the Internet. I don't find solace in chatting or meeting people via the Internet.

I have this playlist in my wmp. And the name of it is ofcourse tori amos. So everyday one funny thing happens: i keep adding more songs to it. More favorites. Old ones but new ones to me. Spark, Past the mission, Sweet the sting, Bliss, Raspberry Swirl and the list goes on and on!

It's just rare that a singer can be called an artist. It's not just about the singing. It's not just about the piano playing. It's not just about the image.

It's not only about the true meaning of songs. It's also the fact that she can articulate pain and love for example, without using those words even!

Well i must say i'm one of those people who knew Tori by the songs which were largely known to those who are just into music in general: professional widow, siren and conrflake girl.

I knew she'd come to perform this July in Athens Greece but i thought about going and then changed my mind cauz i didnt really know her music.

That was till i heard "bouncing off clouds" about a month ago. By now i have gotten to know her music, her style, some of her beliefs.
