Do you believe in magic?
I do now. I just had a very magical moment. The past week has been at least exhausting and what is left of it a routine. So, I was walking to my dorm room, and while I was in the middle of the courtyard-surrounded by building from all four sides- I noticed somthing strange. Something strange and yet so natural. I noticed the moon. It was full. It was bright yet pale, a beacon in the dark sky. The sky had a few stars, and some wonderfull cirrus clouds. You could hardly notice them but they were there, because they created a misty feeling. The courtyard was so quitet. Of course it was 1.22am. Yet it was an odd serene feeling of deadliness. As if everything had stopped for me. To cherish this moment. And I did. I went to a bench in the middle of the courtyard, lied down and just stared at the sky. Or rather the moon. I was captivated. Entranced. I couln'd believe how something so simple, something that I can see and have been seeing once a month looked so beautiful. There was a refreshing cool breeze to complete the picture. I felt so strangely. . . . . . free. As if nothing else mattered in the world but these moment I was experiencing and savouring. Such an odd experience and so out of place and time. As if it never happened. Yet I know that if I walk outside in the courtyard right now. . . . I am afraid that it might not happen again. I don't even know why I am writing this. Perhaps as a way to ensure the memory of this experience. . . Weird isn't ? How nature can smite you down leaving you awestruck by its uncanny beauty. The moon was gorgeous. It still is. Our world isn't. Yet the moon is part of our world, right?

I am back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After a month of complete dormancy....I decided it was a time to let go of my homework and write a new post with news!!!!! I am happy to find more friends, old and new on facebook to keep in touch with, yet nothing compares with the ability to write anything on your own personal blog. The past month, the majority of February....has been at least......... busy. So many projects, essays, speeches, applications,chores, errants, payments, purchases had to be done....that kept my occupied. That and a minor depression issue which I hope it won't be followed by more..... But this month hasn't been only dull work......I admit that I had fun too. And here's the proof:

Back to SCAD!
The winter holidays were...interesting. I went to Istanbul, saw my old friends again, had a crisis in one of my group of friends, I realized a lot new about some other friends and for the last three weeks I partied every single night.
But during these holidays, I learned that one of my mother's uncles, my grandfather's oldest borther, Leonidas,was dying from cancer. Towards the end of the break I visited him. I did not see the person I had last seen last summer. It was his shadow. One of the most alive, vibrant and energetic people was on a bed, helpless fighting not for survival but for a more peaceful end. It was so hard for me to act like he was ging to be ok, since we were trying to persuade him he will overcome this illness. It was one of the times in my life were I wanted to cry yet for his sake I couldn't. I had to cheer him up. He was so happy to see me, and that made me even more happier. I know he is fighting the cancer, but the doctors have given him weeks or months of life. That was probably the last time I will ever see him. I just wish he won't be in pain anymore.
My flight to the States had been quite an experience. My flight from Athens was delayed, so I missed my connection to Atlanta at JFK in New York. Delta airlines after hours of waiting at the airport, put me up at Holiday in were I waited for an hour and a half in the line 'cause more flights were messed up and they had sent all the people to this hotel. I got a suite and dinner but I didn't enjoy them much cause I spent 4 hours only at the hotel. Yet when I called a taxi, a white limo arrived to gat me to Laguardia airport!!!!! I wish I wasn't so exhausted to actually enjoy the experience. Again both my flights form NY to Atlanta and from Atlanta to Savannah were delayed. When I arrived in Savannah I felt as if I never left. I was so happy to see them all again. I also registered for a fourth class, one class extra that I was allowed to take, because of my grades. Everybody cannot believe I am taking four classes and they keep telling me that it is hard work, but I think I am going to make it.
Yesterday, I went to the mall and some other stores with my friends and had such a great time! I bought so many good deals!!!!!! I couldn't believe it!!! For the rest of the evening I was hyper!!! I must've been a pain for my roomate 'cause I just wouldn't shut up!!!! That night I was exhausted.....and after talking to Britney and Zach in a parking lot for an hour and a half we decided to go to a cafe at 1 in the morning and I got a pineapple+coconut smoothie!!.....needless to say I went to bed after 3...........
Lately I've been having issues with my love life, 'cause a friend of mine has a crush on me and is jealous of another friend who is in the class.... While I have a crush on another girl.... so complicated!!!! I also took the step to tell a friend about my feelings. Too basd she is in another country now... I miss her. Well that sums it up. It was a while since my last post.
