italia

ah, Italia, quanto mi manchi.

Today I came home from work, and decided that since I'm home alone I'm gonna watch a movie that I will never stop loving. This mostly because it will always remind me of my time in Italy.

3 Metri sopra il cielo ( 3 meters above heaven).

Here a few lines from the movie, all so true in all simplicity.

"apri gli occhi e inizia a sognare"
"un secondo prima sei in paradiso e quello dopo sei all inferno"
"Il futuro? E chi lo sa... Cambia tutto così velocemente"



The movie itself maybe isn't all that great, but I like it. I watch it to hear Italian, the most beautiful language in the world. I watch it to remember times that I never want to forget. I watch it to just let my mind get away.

dolce far niente - sweet idleness

Today I did something I haven't done in a while. I sat and watched musicTV.  The beauty in not doing anything is sometimes overwhelming. Just breathing in the short stories told through these videos. And forgetting everything else. A sweet escape. The beauty of doing nothing, dolce far niente.

Here's a few ones I like right now:


Chisu- Sabotage


Wham - Last Christmas


Staind - Believe


Sunrise Avenue - Welcome to My Life
