Happy Walpurgis night, witches!

[I did not take any of these pictures, all of them are from teh internetz, if you can see some of your work here, let me know, I will give you credit :)]
A couple [or more] of images that come into my mind when I think of tonight.

Isn't this just a pure beauty?

h.e.n.n.a

And the thing I always forget, I want to ask you, if any of you can tell me where in SVK can I buy henna [not that DM one, I want something better like Hennecolor or sth]. Please, I'm searching and searching and all I can find is henna from DM, I was even given some tips where on svk to buy something  better but when I visited the shop they were not selling it any longer.
I don't want the above mentioned henna because it seems to dye only the already colored hair [that was dyed with a permanent haircolor lots of months ago] and not doing anything with my original color [ok, maybe a tiny litlle something..but its not enough]...which is like...its job! And I have tried to leave it for quite a long time on my head, and still it doesn't look like it should.
It looks like this :...so, any ideas? :))
 

lots of nothing

Don't think that I didn't realize I'm contradicting myself. [I do it a lot :D] In my first post on this blog I said that I enjoy to read articles on other blogs, dealing with things I'm interested in, and so on, and that I prefer text to pictures. But as you can see, my entries do not consist of much of a text, ehm. I don't want to make excuses but I simply don't have very much time lately, and most of the days I'm totally exhausted, I don't know if it's the spring fatigue or just too much school, maybe both. But I try to find some time to take pictures with my Praktica and Lubitel, and Canon of course. The spring is here, everything is so colorful, full of life, I like it, more than anything.
Today I had a kinda day off that I spent reading Mrs. Dalloway, and then watching the film. Pretty boooring for me, I just could not relate to her [Peter and Sally were my favs]. But it was better than the first time I tried to read it, I fell asleep 5 times on the train and I knew that this won't lead me anywhere. But now aprox. a year later I quite enjoyed this stream of consciousness technique, I don't know maybe it was the combination of the spring wind that had found its way into my room, and the music I was listening at the time of reading the book.
Yesterday evening I made myself a kind of a private disco, again [I do, once in a while] as always I was choosing my fav old classics, and jumping and singing [ neighbours must have been superhappy :D] and this song got caught in my mind, and it still is today. A great, dynamic, magical and powerful performance of Siouxsie and the banshees + plus one extra banshee that needs to be CUREd :P
I'm wondering, will I ever be able to see Siouxsie performing somewhere in Europe, I've seen Severin with his film music two times, I still want to see Siouxsie, or The Creatures, when the Banshees do not plan to get together anymore.
So here it is :)

sad but true


Just a brief message from Patti, take some time and try to think about it for a while ;)
Don't let your life to be ruled by others [whatever that is, people, institutions, conventions, society and so on]

let's get high together, in the springtime, at Oxford

Last week, me with a few of my friends made a trip to High Tatras. It's been almost 19 years since my first visit [i was 4 and I hardly remember anything], but I think I might visit our beautiful Tatras more often. The weather wasn't the best, but I managed to take some nice pics of the beautiful nature. It was still a bit o f snow here and there, our morning view was almost completely covered in the mist, but it got better as the day progressed. I really need to come again, in the summer! :)









And now, something completely different, a few days ago, I got my first oxfords! They were quite cheap, one of them seems a bit bigger than the other [I think it might be due to the fact that Idunnohowmany people have only tried that one on, and stretched it a bit] and after two days of walking the heel is a worn down a bit, but nevertheless, I like them, and enjoy walking in them. I'm quite curious how long are they gonna last :D Unfortunately I don't have a photo of them yet [and I can't find the exact ones on polyvore either], but I promise I will find some time to capture them :)
And I'm very happy that the spring is finally there [if i ignore this April weather :D]. I LOVE walking outside at this time, when it's not too cold and not too warm either, feeling the timid sun rays on my face and breathing the spring air in:))

And at the end, not a song today, but a video :) Even winter has its charm :))
