I just found out today the guy died. On the 27th of January, at the age of 91. There was no media fuss about it, except for sporadic articles about his love life, his seclusion from the world and the existence of unpublished manuscripts. I was thinking of putting some links, but most of them are have... 

Sunt câţiva oameni care mi-s tare dragi, în ciuda faptului că întâlnirile noastre au fost mai degrabă trecătoare. Mi-au lăsat una sau mai multe amintiri cu zâmbet şi mi-a plăcut de ei. Şi asta a fost! Mi-s dragi pe nedrept, pentru că poate dacă am fi petrecut mai mult timp împreună ne-am... 

via Plevi, as always. Florence and The Machine Although the name was never one of my favorite, Florence (Florenţa) writes some of the nicest lyrics I’ve heard in quite a while. Not to mention they also have a point, just like “move, bitch, get out the way“. Also, the songs are so... 

or what a beautiful movie about communism looks like. I’ve been meaning to see this one for some time, ever since I heard that Yann Tiersen worked on the soundtrack. I was quite happy to see that it was in the library here in Coventry. Unfortunately, because it was an original DVD, my stupid Acer... 

Am dat, via Billy, de o mişcare destul de interesantă – asemănătoare cu a de-ţi ziceam acum vreo lună-două. Işi spun New Economics Foundation şi susţin o modificare de “paradigmă” [iertare, n-am putut să rezist!] economică, de la economia bazată pe creşterea continuă... 

New term starts today. Big hopes for this little bastard… Since Coventry hasn’t seen any snow for a while,  I think you can relate to the picture better than I can, but we might relate to the song just as strong. Plans for today: 1. Eat free pizza (yes, Br, you’ve started a new trend) 2.... 

Another day inside the house. Cold still not going away. Between cups of lemon tea, soup and tangerines I started watching Califonication. So far, the emphasis is on fornication. Still feeling extremely happy about the good news I got yesterday. Oh, right, I forgot to tell you. I got accepted to the... 

Short programmes. The men. Because they’re always the most spectacular 5th place: Stephan Lambiel 4th place: Michal Brezina 2010 [muzica e putin decalată, dar n-am găsit alta veriantă, for the time being] 3rd place:Yannic Ponsero 2nd place: Brian Jubert 1st place: Evgheni Plushenko :X Mi-ar... 

Mi-am amintit zilele trecute de cum a fost prima oară când am mers cu taxiul. Sau mă rog, nu prima, prima oară, nici un drum anume, ci doar senzaţia pe care mi-o dădea. Dacă mergeam cu maman undeva, înainte să-şi ia maman maşină şi dacă padre nu era cu noi [sau poate chiar înainte de Merţanul...
