Summer time

Summer time can be weird. People are packing, people are talking about their summer plans, people are buying sun creams, people are wondering what to take. I do like summer.

I love my summer memories in Corsica with my parents, with the little family we had there. I remember the salt taste of the water, I remember the beautiful beaches, I remember the smell of Corsica. I remember the happiness of those days.

I remember the excitement of two free months without school and stress, when I was a child. As a teenager,  I remember me and my best friend gambling on the possibility of meeting our first boyfriend during summer. I remember the very long letters we wrote to each other. Separation and reunion, those are two words which sum up pretty good what summer meant to me for a very long time.

Summer is like a bracket and I do like brackets. Because sometime, that's exactly what we need. And even if I don't have what we can call "real vacation", I fully intend to enjoy my summer as much as I can. And for what it worths, it couldn't have started better ! :)

Chanel sunglasses !

Because some things don't need words... 

Ps : Rory, I thought of you by writing this article...

Tag of pleasures !

A eye pleasure : watching my Love.

A pleasure you share : telling someone you love a good news and then remembering this moment together.

A childhood pleasure : cooking with my grandma, packing for holiday with my little sister.

A fragrant pleasure : my orange chocolate candle from Comptoir de Famille, it's like a drug.  

A selfish pleasure : watching grey's anatomy alone and not wanting to be disturbed 

A unknown pleasure : believing to "the happily ever after" thing, having a child.

A taste pleasure : raspberries from the garden.

A anachronistic pleasure : watching Dawson's creek and remember how it was like to be a teenager...

A costless pleasure : smiling to people, it can change many things.

A shameful pleasure : staying home in my pair of pyjamas, not answering the phone and reading till the book is over.

A outrageously expensive pleasure : my new Chanel sunglasses...

A forbidden pleasure : after work, going back home and eating dark chocolate before dinner when I'm all alone and with something to read, preferably a magazine.

A spirit pleasure : discovering new books and new authors.

A narcissistic pleasure : when my Love told me that I'm beautiful, priceless ! Or when my pursuer tell me that my english accent is just perfect.

A literary pleasure : when a book changes your life or at least the way you see it.

A simple pleasure : coming into the plane every day and just smiling because I am where I want to be...

May your day be full of those little pleasures ! 

New addiction : Bones !

The problem when you start watching the American Tv shows is that most of the time you can't stop it ! Until now, I have been really reasonable. I only watched Grey's Anatomy. I bravely resisted against Lost, Gossip Girl, Gilmore girls, Desperate Housewives and so on. Despite all the good things I heard about them. I resist.

But one or two months ago, it was Saturday evening and I was alone with the project of getting up at 4.00 in the morning and I turned the television on, what I do very rarely because I don't like television. Anyway... Bones was on M6 and after ten minutes, I knew that I shouldn't have watched it because it was obvious that this show has everything to be liked, even with the French traduction ! It's now official I'm a fan of Bones. Silly me ! 

I like the fact that for each episode, a case file is solved by the alliance of scientific expertise of the anthropologist Temperance Brennan and investigations lead by an FBI agent, Seeley Booth. I like even more the characters flaws and weaknesses and the way their relationships will evolve step by step. It is sometimes funny, sometimes sad and in any time touching... 

I do like the character of Temperance Brennan, her professional skills, her lack of social skills and the way she tries to protect herself from pain and disappointment. I even like her clothing style, her original necklaces. She is stylish, definitively.

And you, have you ever watched this show ?

Piece of news, again

Like many of you, I haven't been very regular when it cames to writing here for the past few days. I guess, real life sometimes gets the upper hand, especially in summer, when the sun shines and when there are so better things to do than staying home with our laptop...

- I spend a nice week end, the first off since the beginning of June.  I went bycycling and it was very positive for both body and heart. I went for a picnic in a very beautiful city and I enjoyed those nice moments.

- I made some online shopping because I didn't want to go to overcrowded stores. I was reasonable...till I find the sunglasses I was searching for. They were not planned on my "to buy" list but I couldn't resist. You will easily understand when I will show you the pictures...

- I chatted with one of my friends this week end. Thank you, Facebook ! :) It has been a long time and I missed it so much. I was especially happy that she trust me enough to talk to me openly. I'm so glad to have her in my life...

- I'm ready for the new week to start !

Have a very nice week ! 

Holiday wanted !

By this time of the year, everyone is speaking of their next vacations, of what we call summer plans. And that's completely natural. It just focuses on the fact that I won't have any vacation before October, even if I do need some. Summer is a time of hard work for people like me. That's the deal ! So all I can do is dreaming and what is the best way of doing that ? With pictures of course ! Any idea where they come from ??
