BIRTHDAY, DECEMBER, SNOW, AND MAGIC

So fall is definitely over, and I must say I quite enjoy the weather..The snowflakes are falling out slowly, and the wind is so gentle.I love how everything is covered in white!

Yesterday was also my birthday, I finally turned 20, my boyfriend and I celebrated it in a great restaurant in Montreal and then we went home for the cake..I am sorry for the picture but the cake kind of fell down because of the heat in the room.But it was still good ^^

What I love about winter also is the food..Hot soups, pancakes and fruits for breakfast, chocolate muesli..I have huge chocolate cravings lately .lol.^^

Will we were walking near the contemporary museum yesterday we saw this big exposition of shining balls, which light up and change pattern just like in shadow plays. Those balls also played a gentle sounds, just like the one whales use to make.

I loved it!

I am sorry I haven't been around a lot lately, but I kept on reading your blogs though I didn't comment. I am sorry for that.But I had an LSAT to prepare, and 4 final essays to prepare, it has been hell.. but I am glad it's over, and I am looking forward to reading and commenting your blogs again..I missed you all, I hope you had a great week! ^^

THE ROSE OF THE DESERT

Here are a few pictures I found in my desktop they are from my last Christmas, while my parents and I went to celebrate the holidays in the desert. We stopped in a town called Tozeur in the South of Tunisia. Those pictures were taken in an oasis nearby the place where they shot Star War it was really amazing! I will try to find the rest of the pictures to show you more of them.

I really like that place because all the mountains and rocks you see are made of sea shells and marine fossils and fossil rocks since this place used to be under the ocean a million years ago. It was quite impressive to see a beautiful and green place like that in the middle of the desert. I hope you like them!

I wish you all a great week :)

BLUES

Those are some photos I took the last while my grand-pa was driving, I just loved the way the sky looked. I have always loved to see the sun shine through the clouds. When I was a kid my cousin used to make me believe that it was God who was shining on us like that. lol.

Anyway, I hope you all had a great week. Mine was pretty busy with all the applications to the schools, and the school projects. And yesterday it snowed a little in Montreal, I think the fall is coming to an end here :( So I thought that the pictures of a pretty blue sky could bring the good old memories of the summer ^^

I wish you all a great week-end.

There is another sky,

Ever serene and fair,

And there is another sunshine,

Though it be darkness there;

Never mind faded forests, Austin,

Never mind silent fields -

Here is a little forest,

Whose leaf is ever green;

Here is a brighter garden,

Where not a frost has been;

In its unfading flowers

I hear the bright bee hum:

Prithee, my brother,

Into my garden come!

Emily Dickinson

RAINY MONTREAL

It's been raining a lot those days, and the weather is really chilly here.. Some days I like it, and some days I don't. But lately I have enjoyed it. With all the stress sometimes it's nice just to sit at home with a cup of tea with a great book to read and watch the rain fall down.

So last time when it rained I took a walk around my bf place and took pictures of the nature and the street life that day. I just love the way the wet pavement and the car lights comes out in photographs.

What about you how is the fall in your town? Do you enjoy it ^^

FOUNTAIN OF KNOWLEDGE

Those are some of the photos I took in nice this summer, I love the statues a lot , and the fountains where really peaceful and relaxing to watch..I miss those beautiful architecture and sculptures here in Canada, I am really looking to going back next summer hopefully. I also loved those carrousel's that you can find everywhere in France, they have that great old school vibe ^^

Here are some lovely quotes I found about fountains :

"Some people drink from the fountain of knoweledge, other just gargle" Dr. Robert Anthony

the world is full of abundance and opportunity, but far too many people come to the fountain of life with sieve instead of a tank car…a teaspoon instead of a steam shovel.They expect little and as a result they get little.
