Rose or Adrian's fault?

Ow, I love analyzing psychologically the characters of books and their actions.
It's just amazing.

So, about Rose and Adrian's (from Vampire Academy) break-off I have to comment that.
In every human 2-people relationship both of them are at fault.

Adrian ignored the signs and, in my opinion, he actually knew that Rose wasn't all that hot for him (not as much as with Dimitri, anyway) from the beginning. He actually had to make a deal with her for Rose to decide to give him a chance. And, well, that was it. A chance to see if that would work out. She never said she loved him more than Dimitri, or anything. And, if he wanted her that much, she dicided to try with him to get over her former tutor.

But, obviously, she didn't make it. And, the fact that she slept with Dimitri while in a relationship with Adrian is wrong, but it's not only her fault. She had already decided to break it off with Adrian. The Moroi was so heart-broken mainly because he found out the way he did. I think he would have expected that the love between Rose and Dimitri would fire up again if they were all alone together.

And, anyway, generally when someone cheats it's not only their fault. It's the other person's fault, too. For different reasons every time.

My opinion. And psychologists'.

Ol' good memories

 I remembered my passion for LP a few days ago, so I started searching their songs again today!
So, Waiting for the End is one of those songs that might be written for a different kinf od situation, but it was also exactly what I was feeling last year in a different one.
I was waiting for the end.
And it came!
And, now I'm extra happy, with my new beginning.
Which was hard, believe me, but it was worth the shot.
So, I suggest that to all of you.
If you feel bad in a situation don't waste any more time to it.
Move on.
It will be the best for all. And, most of all? For you!


And, I'd also like to post The Catalyst.
The rhythm makes my hair stand up.
God Bless us All.
:D
So, enjoy!

Tired *.*

I'm so tired. :/
After 6 hours of sleep and 9 hours of lessons, I can indeed say that I am dead.
I'll soon start snoring while sitting in front of the laptop. :D

So, I just decided to post this awesome vid of the new app of the works of Richelle Mead.
I just remembered all over again my passion for VA [although, it never really leaves my mind] when I started talking about it with a friend of mine. :D

Too much dyslexia for a day, right?
So...
Enjoy!

Another 6th of December

 Just like every year, today was a special day for us Greeks, and, especially, for us the young people of Greece...

3 years ago a boy my own age lost his life...
He was only 15 years old.



Many greek walls still carry the marks of that day, with all the graffitis talking about the unfairness of the government, which lets policemen kill in cold blood the youth.

Every 6th of December is an especially heavy day.
All the marchers get in the streets. School and university students take part, too.
Sometimes, riots can't be avoided, but, in general, we all try to demonstrate at peace.
And, all this for Alexandros Gregoropoulos.

3 years ago, when that happened, I remember learning about it in th news the next morning.
We, as students decided to take over our schools.
And most of us succeeded.

2 years ago, the same, with the taking over, the riots, the marching.

Last year, the truth is that I didn't really hear about what happened on 6th of December.

But this year, today, I did!
Nothing much, thankfully.
Just peaceful demonstrations in the memory of Alexis.

Rest In Peace Alexi, for yet anothr year!

We'll never forget you, and we will always honor your memory.
Every year, we'll demostrate against the unfairness.
Because you were the same age as me when you died.
Just 15 years old.

Christmas month

Just before I go back to studying Neurobiology [:S blieh! Full of Biology!] and just after watching 2 episodes of Hellcats [:p, yeah I'm up for much studying today!], I wanted to mention that the month of Christmas is finally here!
I would have said that to my previous post, but then again, I hadn't really checked to see that I hadn't posted anything since the start of this month!

So, I wish you all to have a nice month, and let's just count down to Christmas together! <3

22 days 'till Christmas

The countdown for the Holy Days or Holidays has already began!
And we still are 22 days away from Christmas!

Almost all the companies have started giving channels Christmas ads.
All the TV channels show Christmas shows and movies.

It's just amazing!
Every year I almost forget how much I really love Christmas.
And, then they come again!
And everything comes back :D

 

 Φετος τα Χριστουγεννα για μενα
δεν θα ειναι ιδια με παλια,
θα χω εσενα και εσυ εμενα
κι ολα θα ναι τοτε μαγικα.....:)
Κανε τη στιγμη μας να κρατησει,
οχι οπως τα βεγγαλικα,
μου αρκει που εισαι εσυ κοντα μου
θα ναι η καλυτερη χρονια...πρωτη φορα.....<3

These lyrics suit my dear cousin ;)
But not me...
Not this year, not ever...

But, I don't care.
For me, Christmas isn't just a Love Holiday!
It's something more...
Much more...

If it snowed here in Greece it would be a blessing, and an extra bonus!
But, I guess, you can never have it all! Right? <3

The Power of Words

Same meaning...
Different words...



Today the professor of Cognitive Psychology showed us this video.

It's touching, and I felt like I had to share it and forward it to everyone!

How do you know...

...where you belong??

I guess you could think that's an easy question to answer.
So, let's think about it together!

Here I am, having passed to a university out of my city (Way out of my city, in a totally different department, in an island, with sea having to pass, and very expensive airport tickets!) and having met a bunch of new people, I like a lot.
I'm happy, most of the time. At least, when homesickness doesn't kick in!
I'm having a good time!
There are times I've felt so alive and happy! (My nameday definitely included)
I have the advantage of a TOTALLY new beginning! (Even one person I've met that comes from the same area as me, I have neer seen him before coming in Rethymno!)
I can give everyone the impression of the person I'd want to be, although I prefer being honest. Because I know from experience that when you pretend only bad results can come out of it.

So, answer to me this question.
Of course, I haven't completely adjusted to my new lifestyle, and definitely I'm still stressed not only by the fact that my life has taken an unimaginable turn, but also because of all the tests and quizzes we have to study for, something students of faculties of the same or other universities don't have to live through. And I didn't even mention all the projects our professors have assigned us.

But, how would you explain the happiness I got from a simple chat exchange on Facebook?
From the way my perspective changed in the way I view some of the comments made by people I despised until very recently?

And, I still get mad (mostly at myself) because I had decided to leave all these things rest in peace in my past.
I had decided to leave my past behind.

But, you know what?
For a long time I've believed that our past is important to all of us.
It's a (for some big, for others small) part of who we are...

The people we have met and the experiences we had have made us develop to the unique human beings we are today.
Because even twins are born with a predisposition to be the same, but their environment helps them develop their (mostly) different characters.

So, I guess, that's why I'm moved and touched by some things I had sworn I'd leave behind.
And with that, I'll just keep living and see where life goes me!

That's what I'd advise you all to do.
If you have a different opinion, I'd be more than glad to hear and discuss it!
It's something that still disturbs me...

Power failure

I haven't even checked whether or not I've posted anything this month! :/
Anyway, it doesn't matter! I'm here, now!

Something was wrong with my tv, which suddenly just turned off by itself. After much hour of surfing on the net I decided to go check it out. And realised that it wouldn't open, no matter what!
So, after checking the laptop that's not charging I decided that we're having a power failure!
Which means that I can't continue with my housework. AND, more importantly I can't cook... :/ What am I going to eat?? I'll improvise, I guess. Thankfully, I'm not hungry, yet!
But, I'm afraid I will be, soon!
You know, when you know you can't do something that's exactly when you want to do it the most!

Another point, I'd like to comment on, is that two days ago was my NAMEDAY!
Here in Greece the majority of people are Christian Orthodoxes, so, as we learned in the subject of Clinical Psychology (imagine me drooling just with the mere reference to this class *.*), everybody here takes it for granted to wish to everyone a happy nameday, when that day comes!
So, my name, coming from Saint Catherine, is celebrated on November 25th.
And that was an exceptional day for me! For the first time after many many years!
And not because it was my nameday! I think that was only a small advantage!
The fact that I had a "pajama party" with one of my friends, also helped a lot!
So, yeah!
Oooh, and of course the fact that the previous day I had received some messages on Facebook chat...
But I'm gonna talk about that in the next post.


Here, I just want to add a song I like very much! One of my favorites, actually!
And it is related to this post's second sentence ;D





I've missed so much LP <3

25 Ways to Wear a Scarf :D

Today I've been studying Neurobiology all day long!! :O
From noon to 9:55pm!
With 2 1-hour breaks, of course, but still...
It wasn't as tiring as I expecting it, thankfully!

Soo, I've been meaning to look for some ways to wear my scarves!
And that's it!
I found this amazing video, without even looking for it!

Check it out!! :D



Wow, awsomness!

11.11.11

Well, well, well...
Yesterday the date was 11/11/11!
Cool, huh?
A horror movie even came out for this particular day!
Isn't that really cool??
Another cool date will also be 20.11.2011

So, watch out for it, too! :D
The next awsome day will be 12.12.12, but until then who knows what happens!
And some days later we'll have 20.12.2012

For some people this will be the next-to-last day of our earth.
Do you really believe the world will come to an end on this date???
I don't think so...
My teacher used to tell us last year that 21.12.2012, that Mayas predicted would be the end of the world, has already passed for them!
Their year 2012 has come and passed for the Mayas.
Because, OBVIOUSLY, they didn't count like us!
2000 B.C. [Before Christ] and 2000 A.D. [Anno Domini]

If that was the case, they'd have predicted that Christ would come to the earth, and that the nations that would decent them would count differently.

Also, what about all those nations that count in a different way than us???
The world will end for them later??? Or sooner???

Some people also believe that there will be a certain hour when everything ends.
Will it be on GMT +0, or what??
How can anyone else count???

I don't know. I just think it's ridiculous.
I personally think that the world is gonna end only when humanity reaches the lowest point we can master!
Or, when an especially big discovery happens!
Or, when we'll be very very developed. Yes, like it's shown in the movies!
But, anyway!

All those people that believe our world is gonna end in 1 year share a belief!
And, I'm gonna respect that!

I'm just saying that in 1 year 1 month and some hours in the future, I'll try and be here (I hope)!
I'm gonna post before and after the end of the world!
Let's share this experience together!
