Russian Revolution

Today is my last day of work for this season, which marks the official start of my summer. Woo-Hoo!

And for some strange reason (despite being only 2 days away from my 2010 Spanish Road Trip) I find myself stuck inside my latest Soviet period. Three beautiful Russian folk songs that REALLY make me smile, have been lingering inside my head all day long, only because they're so bloody beautiful :-)

Life In A Day: FEAR - LAUGH - POCKETS - LOVE

This is my entry for "Life in a Day".

Life In A Day is a historic global experiment to create a user-generated documentary feature film shot in a single day. On July 24, I had 24 hours to capture a glimpse of my life on camera. The most compelling and distinctive footage will be edited into a feature film, produced by Ridley Scott and directed by Kevin Macdonald. 

Part 1 of 4: What do I FEAR the most?

 

Part 2 of 4: What makes me LAUGH?
 

Part 3 of 4: What's in my POCKETS?

 

Part 4 of 4: What do I LOVE the most?

A Letter That Truly Touched Me

With regards to my Timi Yuro music video, I got a response by Andylon Lensen that really blew my mind...

Here follows:

"Dear Yannis,

Who would ever thought this video would be casted with all talented young actors.

Timi would have LOVED it -  since she always had a weakness for children and older people anyway.

This is beyond my expectations.

Congratulations Yannis.

Your friend,

Andylon Lensen


I also had to forward this message from another die-hard fan of our Timi - Association:

Wow!! what an energetic performance these kids put in. Please give Yannis a big thank you from me. These kids are absolutely awesome. I think we may have a "budding" Timi somewhere out there. Oh if Timi were alive to see this. She would be absolutely thrilled to pieces at this video.

thank Yannis again, for yet another stellar performance...

Ann Marie"

Sometimes words simply aren't enough.
