You labeled me I'll label you




Jason Newsted once said that a true song is the one that makes the listner think that it was written for him/her.
I can't understand people who don't relate to music, or any kind of art, I find them rather empty inside. I thank God as often as I can because I can hear and because I am able to understand most of the songs I listen. While returning from college I was listening to Metallica's Unforgiven and this lyrics strucked me : "You labeled me I'll label you"... Yes I do that and it may be a flaw but I do it, many times without realizing it, but I rather think that it's a self defence mechanism. Since I'm at the flaw department...I tend to get territorial but only when it envolves something that is extremly dear to me. I'm just the kind of person who still believe in true romance, in being conquered rather than "tripping", in making love rather than mating, in going out for long walks rather than at the Mall, in spending time with people I like rather than hanging out with people just because it looks "cool". I like to keep myself focused on what I have to do at the moment instead of complicating myself with things that can happen later in time.

I'll have a banner ready for you in a couple of days

Today Tomorrow...The Next Day

Today I'm grateful...
- I'm grateful because I'm healthy, as healthy as you can be in the XXI century....
- I'm grateful because even if I don't have many friends, I have one that it's here, for real...
- I'm grateful because I live in a happy family
- I'm grateful because I have a lot of things that I wanted
- I'm grateful because I can use my hand, because I can walk, hear, see, feel
- I'm grateful because there are still people who do the right things
- I'm grateful because I have the feeling that there is something better in the future
- I'm grateful because today was a good day

I came up with a new line today...In my body there are veins, arteries and a conductor which contains metallica music...without it....my life wouldn't be complete.

New textures

Well....because I value my best friend's opinion very much every time before I make a banner, picture, anything. It's always nice to have a second opinion especially when that opinion is very objective.

So..the bottom line....I became rather static with my banners so I had to change them a bit....

Here's my first one after the new textures:

New banner

As you may know my latest obsession with Anastacia's music made me put my ass to work and learn how to make banners in photoshop....I've been dreaming for a long time to learn it but never had the necessary motivation to do so.

Anastacia played with Ben's brother the song Stalemate this is what came up...

Everybody dance now

I remember spending my time when I was little dancing and singing any kind of song that I found on my tapes/cd's...I used to fall asleep with the stereo on just listening to music. My mother when she was pregnant to me used to turn the volume up and dance when Queen was on the radio...by now you can imagine that I am a Queen die hard fan, in '91 when Freddie died, my mom told me that I cried like hell. I couldn't imagine life without music...usually the only days when I don't listen to music is when I feel like crap but even then some amount of music is required for my system to function.

This is one of the songs I remember listening when i was like 5-6 years old and I just heard it on the TV and thought I should tell you guys a little story.

You have a great weekend y'all

For you my friend

This is something I did for my best friend's website dedicated to one of her favorite artist, Jason Newsted.
A couple of years ago I started a website for my favorite frontman...although Freddie Mercury will always have a special place in my heart I have to say that James has a way of making me feel the music. Anyway, sometime later D. started her own website too and we started gathering pictures with them, at my last inventory I had over 5.000 pictures :D:D....Well today I added one of my own (though I had made several before I have to say that I'm pretty impressed about this one) : For you my friend :)

My first banner


So after long long long....efforts of understanding an Adobe tutorial I made my first real banner. I just took the first pictures that came across my mouse pointer and inserted them into Adobe. Rolling between tabs, swearing because I could see where the selective tools were, then the blend option....oh yeah and my favorite...how the ***** you place another picture on top of your background picture (realized that it was just a drag and drop action :|)

I'm delighted to see that my first banner is with Anastacia. Please give me some feedback,, critiques are always welcomed.

Anastacia Breast Cancer Foundation

I know that lately I've been talking a lot about Anastacia, but I hope that it was all for a good purpose. Today I decided to post a link to her breast cancer foundation. Did you know that insurance companies refuse to pay to women under 40 years old their mammograms? Because cancer under 40 years old is very rare they are not willing to draw a lower line, Anastacia is trying to make them go to 35 years old at least. Click here to check out the website.



Have a good day everyone!

Live by the code that you gotta move on



Yesterday night I saw this amazing woman perform on stage. It was one of those moments when time flew right by...one of those moments when you're in the first row and after hours and hours of standing in your feet your back starts to hurt, your legs feel like they're beginning to grow roots but it doesn't matter because up there on the stage is the person you've wanted all your life to see.
As you may know Anastacia holds a very important part in my life, she is one of the reasons I started to move on after my grandmothers death. The night before the concert I wrote her a letter, I hoped that I would get to give her that letter, but somehow I know that there was a little chance to do that, but it happened, it actually happened. When a guy from her crew passed before my eyes I told him to give her the letter because it's very important. After the show the guy came to me and he said that he gave it to her sister and she'll read it by the time she gets to the hotel, so you, stranger, whoever you are, THANK YOU. My dream came true...
Something else happened...something that I would never think that would happen it did...to me...During a song entitled "I belong To You" I showed her the peace sign...and she showed the same thing to me back she looked at me and continued singing..."I belong to you, you belong to me/Forever", during the me and you part she pointed her finger to her and to me...it was a magical moment...she has no idea that the person that wrote her the letter and the person with the the peace sign are one and the same..but....Man....it was...let's see how Jason Newsted said it in an interview in '99 when he came to play with Metallica in Romania: "A good song is one that make the listener feel that that song was written for him, that tells his story"...Dude, you were so damn right!

Yesterday it all ended, during "You'll Never Be Alone" I said "Goodbye" to my grandma, it is time to move on...and beside me there was the person who has been with me all along this time, the person who tolerates my moods, my crankiness, my headaches, the person who I admire the most, the one who I love and cherish, my best friend. I started moving on because of her and I said my goodbyes with her by my side during "You'll never be alone" --- on the song who helped me so much.

Thank you Doina and Anastacia...

Ps: The horrible voice you might hear on the recording it's my voice :D

Nothing old and nothing new - 21 here I am:)

Most of you are wondering what happened to me but I'm fine. I was at Slanic Prahova (you can find the details of the town at this link. I was with my best friend and with another friend from college. It was nice what can I say...we visited the surroundings and slept a lot. After a hard year at school we all needed the break. I'm posting so late because, even if I returned home yesterday, today was my birthday(21 years old:D) and I celebrated with my est friend...it became a habit to celebrate it with her because we have such a nice time together and there would be no other person to whom I'd like to share this special day. So...after I took a shower after returning from town today I looked in the mirror but didn't see any changes...I'm still the same I was when I was 20....no extra wrinkles, no 3rd hand....nothing...so you tell me folks, what makes you guys 21 or older? I'll post some pictures from the trip:) Have a nice week y'all.
Doina and Bogdan the view from the Green Mountain (weird name for a mountain don't you think?)


This is one of the salt walls from the salt mine in Slanic...one of the tourist attractions

A shoe carved in salt...neat:D

Another view from the Green Mountain

Nothing but the uncommon usual:P




Ps. Ana thanks for checking up on me.

Summer vacation and reopening note

Well as you may have noticed I was gone a month from my blog but was all in educational purposes. I was in summer practice for a month and when I came home I was too tired to write anything. Plus now I came with very interesting stuff from the clinic. And because I haven't written in so long today I'm going to compensate and tell you a little bit of my experience. Last year I hated the time I had to spend in surgery, this year life's twisted way made me change my whole perception of this subject and my professor and spent the whole month in surgery and had the time of my life. As you can see I posted some pictures I took there: The first two are some pins of a dog and kitten who weren't too careful and ended up on the table.





Isn't this the saddest thing you have ever seen? This little guy...or should I say little girl has a kidney problem and has the eczema on the entire body, she was full of bruises because the eczema is extremely itching and she scratched until she bled. Thank God everything worked out just fine.

Now this is the case where the doctor practically made me drool. So this guy come with this Golden Retriever with a stick in her mouth tied up. And because I was drinking coffee I came a little late in the operation room (lol) so everybody was freaking out and I asked a colleague what happened. This beautiful little dog ate a fishing bait (talking about being hungry:P) and it got stuck on her esophagus. The owner was smart enough (I so love owners who have brains) to tie that stick on her tongue so it would make it impossible for the dog to swallow. So the doctor was going back and forth about what is he going to do...after several of ideas a guy comes in and says hey what about a barium test to see were exactly is the bait placed.....And then...I saw the light reflecting the doctor...the light bulb turned on and he did the following: You see, it's complicated working on that area because you might irreparable damage the patient. So to make the story short the doc introduced a tube which had a twisted pin at the end in the dog's esophagus and pulled the bait nice and gently without harming the dog...Now you tell me isn't this man a genius or what?? The picture below is the barium scan.

This little guy has his story but I would like to keep it secret....


On another note I got a new phone from my parents...I'm very happy with it...plus, it's blue. I have it on green too but I told the lady at the store that I'm on Veterinary Medicine so when I go at the farm, if I keep it green the cows might mix it up with grass and might eat it :P (I'm not very fond of green , don't know why)

And last but not least my uncle got married, I had a lot of fun...it was a nice way to spend time with the family...It was a small wedding just the family and a few close friends but it didn't matter because we had a lot of fun.
Here are some pictures of the bride and groom and of me and my best friend who were entitled to hold the candles in the church....




The last picture is a little secret written for someone very special to me...





Writing about it made me realize that I had a pretty full month! Well hope to see you guys soon:)

80's Rock Photos -- The big Comeback

Click here to visit David Plastik's website:






Photobucket

About David Plastik

During the 80's, David Plastik was a highly sought, widely published photographer. He shot and freelanced for a wide variety of popular music magazines and was the preferred photographer for a number of musicians and bands. Many of his candid shots were obtained through his personal friendships with the rock stars that were his subjects. Look around and check out these concert photos; the composition of his shots speaks volumes.
Publications in Which David's Photos Have Appeared

David's work has been featured in numerous books as well as in publications such as Guitar, Rolling Stone, Cream and Hit Parader to name just a few. If any of these photos rings a bell or looks vaguely familiar, it's likely because you saw it years ago in a magazine. If there was a band that toured in the eighties, chances are that
David Plastik photographed them.



If you mention that you find his website from my blog David is going to give you a bonus so don't miss out this opportunity!
