Caught by the torrent of life

Ok, so I usually don't do this, I mean, I don't search out tips and tricks on how to do this, how to do that, ya' know, that sorta crap...

But this time I stumbled across a very interesting feature of Microsoft Word, which practically enables you to post directly from the word processor.

The source of this was TechTasks.Blogspot.com.

For the moment I can't figure out how to actually include photos in the post, but at least I know it's now possible to blog from Word... :D

"Women would be amazed if they knew what men desire about them. Yes, of course, they want to see women naked and supine and melting, but male desire is far more readily stimulated by what the oblique glance discovers: the parted lips, the micron of eyelash which the mascara brush missed, the changing angle and shadow of cleavage, the bra-strap alternately displayed and covered up, the ripe-camembert plumpness at the edge of hips. There is, inside every adult man, a relentless Peeping Tom, a perennial 14-year-old boy, still amazed by the phenomenon of women on display, flagging their sexuality, their availability, with every square inch of visible flesh, clothing, make-up and curve.
…
We desire the personality that we discern in the walk, the clothes, the laugh … We look, and sigh, and wish to do certain things to her, first urgently, then luxuriantly, and keep doing it indefinitely; but we also hunger to have her do certain things to us, unimaginable though it may seem – we want her to want us. We don’t just want her surrender, like a slave captured in battle; we want her approbation, her adoration; we want to enchant her to desire us back. For, no matter how humble we feel before the dizzying fact of female beauty, men are just as narcissistic as women."

Ok, so I decided to include into my recommendations digital artists that I discover stumbling over the net, and here's the first of them: Henning Ludvigsen. He's a digital artist from Norway, currently living in Athens, Greece. Since 2004, he has been focusing on creating fantasy-related 2D art and is currently working as the Art Director of a Norwegian/Greek computer game development company in Athens, which recently launched the MMORPG game Darkfall. I found his art wandering around CoolIris, searching for dragons on deviantArt.
Here are some of the pieces I treasure most of his art:

Ok, so... how should I start this...
Ever had the feeling you want to watch a movie, can't really decide on your pick, yet in the end you're kinda glad you got this one?
When I decided to see this one, I wasn't expecting much, mainly because it seemed just another teen/teenage/relationship movie, just that I didn't know any of the actors.
Can't really say this is an astonishing piece of art or the future winner of the Oscars (5.5 imdb), so why bother?


Well, I decided to recommend this movie because of the idea it deals with.
It's not something extremely new, I believe it's been hanging around during the last decade, as an emancipation of relationships, an emancipation of teenagers against unwritten old-fashioned rules of society.
Ok, maybe there's too many big words for a simple movie like this, so let's break it down:

The idea of the movie is about open relationships.
Yes, the kind of relationships where a couple, err... the individuals of a couple are "allowed" to see other people.
See other people, touch other people, kiss other people, fuck other people.
In few words, the action goes something like this: there's this couple (boy A and girl A), having an open relationship.
Girl A suddenly meets her ex-highschool-dorkish-boyfriend (boy C), who's got into real estates and is handsome enough to get her to bed.
Boy A is trying to hook up with girl D, whom he's known since like forever and who just turned "barely legal".
As an antithesis to couple A's open relationship, we've got couple B, who just got married, where: girls A and B are sisters, and girl D is boy B's sister.
Pretty soap-opera like, ain't it?

Halfway through the movie, couple A keeps claiming neither of them is bothered by the other one seeing (and fucking!) someone else.
Well, it all gets interesting when girl A finds out she's pregnant, and it's boy C's child, since girl A and boy A hadn't had sex in quite some time:
she was busy boning her ex, he was busy deflorating boy B's barely legal, virgin little sister.

Of course girl A tells everyone except boy A that she's pregnant (starting with boy C), and boy B kicks boy A's butt when he catches him with his younger sister (girl D, remember? are you following? 's not that complicated, is it?)
Well, to cut it short, couple A break up, he realises it wasn't her that needed him, but him that needed her, girl A ends up with boy C, while boy A ends up all alone.

Yeah, I know it's not a big deal of a movie, because that's pretty much it, but now here's the reason why I decided to post this...


And that's relationships. And the openness of relationships.
My point of view, and I'm kinda stuck with it, or better said, my way of relationshipping is rather the old-fashioned one.
I'm all for "openness" in a relationship, as long as things don't get out of control. Not my control, but the control of both people.
I used to "admire" (let's say) people who were having more girlfriends at a time, people who showed up all the time with a different girl,
people who were able to "party all week". Probably I was envious because I was never able to make out with more than one person at a time...
But nevermind that, that was a long time ago. The envy, I mean... I still can't be with more than one person at a time... :D

Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not against open relationships, I know we're living "modern times", and having an "open" relationship is in vogue.
But what does it actually mean to have an open relationship?
How far would you go in the freedom an open relationship gives you?
How much would you take from the other person?
How much freedom would you give?

How would you feel not having seen your significant other 3 weekends in a row?
What do you do when you feel "home" is just a place you go to sleep?
This is actually for the cases when the couple share a roof - this was the case in the movie - and I think it's the most complicated one - when people are living together, because of this scene in the movie:
girl A was trying to sleep upstairs (but she couldn't, because she had just found out she was pregnant), boy A gets home drunk, girl D calls him and comes over.
Girl A keeps not-sleeping while boy A and girl D make out downstairs.
Girl A finally has it and rushes to boy C. The girls meet downstairs... and girl A says everything is ok...
Now that's fuckin awkward....



So, to conclude with, if you want to leave a comment, think about these:

• What does open relationship mean to you?


• How far would you go in your freedom?


• How far would you let the other one go in his/her freedom?


• Are you an open person or an old-fashioned one? - first point of view: movie (openness = having sex with other people); second point of view: yours if it's different than the one in the movie.

Ochi albaștri.
Clari precum cerul senin de vară.
Buze virgine care cer desfătare.
Fund îmbietor și sâni sfredelitori, ce n-au cunoscut mângâieri pasionale.
Troleu.

Ochi gri-verzui.
Ademenitori, într-o seară ploioasă.
Gură mușcată de sărutări.
Sâni obraznici, încercând să se elibereze de strânsoare.
Metrou.

Ochi căprui, de ambră.
Pătrunzători, curioși, vor să afle tainele vieții și tainele sufletelor.
Păr ușor ondulat, cercei drepți.
Piele de chihlimbar, sâni rotunzi și mari, cam cât să îmi încapă în palme.
Depeche Mode și In Your Room.


Coapse pline de viață, fremătând ușor.
Pântec ce tresaltă unduitor, așteaptă seva albă a vieții.
Roz purpuriu.



Care-i scopul meu în viață?
Să-mi asigur nemurirea.
Și mai mult decât atât, să pot spune că am făcut totul după cum am vrut eu.

Pentru cei care au copii, ceva timp liber (vorba vine) si vor sa le aduca o bucurie celor mici, din iunie exista un locsor in care piticutii se pot distra de minune admirand o multime de animalute: ponei, caluti, magarusi, vacute, oite, caprite, purcelusi, iepurasi, gainuse, ratuste si mai stiu eu ce...

Mai pe scurt, s-a deschis Ferma Animalelor - un parc de animale domestice special amenajat pentru cei mici. Ei se pot juca in aer liber, in deplina siguranta. In plus, copiii vor putea sa invete cum este produs laptele de vaca, sa calareasca poneii si multe, multe alte lucruri interesante.
