Regrets

Until a few (maybe one or two) years ago I used to say that I had no regrets. Everything I had done or hadn't was fine. 

Well, maybe regrets are a "grown-up thing" and as I grow up they are born...or realized.

So, I regret.....

* situations I pushed things (and in the end I realized I didn't have to)

* two choices of boyfriends I have made in the past (with the life philosophy, political beliefs and ideas I have today I wouldn't make them)

* the times I wasn't 100% myself

* for all the "fuck you"s (metaphorically and literally) I didn't say when I had to

* the times I was afraid of doing something and in the end.... I didn't do it

* the times I didn't give the answer (or no answer, that's an option too) they deserved to some people

* the moments I could have been happy but I wasn't

Sunday morning!

Having breakfast and blogging on the balcony, Sunday morning!

Seems like happiness...!!

So much beauty....!

There are moments that your state of mind, what you see, what you listen to, your thoughts, everything around you, create such a special moment.

THERE'S SO MUCH BEAUTY IN THE WORLD!

Life (of a blogger) without a laptop

Imagine a person that spends hours in front of a laptop every day.

Blogging, editing photographs, listening to music, running an Etsy Shop, discovering internet trinkets, preparing a video art project, and usually doing all these while having a series or a movie playing on the background (listening to people talking and in general sounds helps me to work, gives me a tempo).

Imagine that person with a broken laptop (one day the screen went "you see me, now you don't!").

The first day I had a great breakfast in the garden and these last four days I'm reading a lot, listening to more music from my mp3 player, taking photographs as usual (and waiting for a computer to edit them, going pot with friends a lot, doing more embroidery work, still watching some documentaries and series I can find on YouTube (from my cell phone), but I'm missing one thing most of all:
writing my blog!
I write down on a notebook everything that I would like to post and the day came that my brother's Easter Holiday started and now I can have access to his laptop for some hours each day (lucky me that I'm waking up at around 6 a.m. each morning and he usually wakes up at around 12 a.m.!).

My microcosm

Hello!

My name is Angelina.

I was born 25 (and a half) years ago. I'm an artist / jewelry designer / blogger and I live and create in Athens. I have studied cinema and music and my list of hobbies needs more than one hand to be counted. 

I used to have three different blogs:

* The microcosm inside her mind, which was my personal one where I could turn into words and photos my thoughts and feelings (http://themicrocosminsidehermind.blogspot.gr/)

* Daily Art by Angelina, which was a blog about my jewelry brand (http://dailyartbyangelina.blogspot.gr/)

* The dress in the nutshell, my newest one, which was basically a fashion blog (http://thedressinthenutshell.blogspot.gr/).

"The microcosm inside my mind" is a combination of all three.

A blog about my microcosm: the things I like, the things I notice, what I create, my jewelry, art, fashion....

Stay tuned!
