Leo Buscaglia - Things you didn't do

2010-01-18T12:53:00.000-08:00

Remember the day I borrowed your brand new car and I dented it? I thought you'd kill me, but you didn't.

And remember the time I dragged you to the beach, and you said it would rain, and it did? I thought you'd say, "I told you so." But you didn't.

Do you remember the time I flirted with all the guys to make you jealous, and you were? I thought you'd leave me, but you didn't.

Do you remember the time I spilled strawberry pie all over your car rug? I thought you'd hit me, but you didn't.

And remember the time I forgot to tell you the dance was formal and you showed up in jeans? I thought you'd drop me, but you didn't.

Yes, there were lots of things you didn't do,
But you put up with me, and you loved me, and you protected me.

There were lots of things I wanted to make up to you when you returned from Viet Nam.

But you didn't.

Leo Buscaglia

Kseniya Simonova - Sand Animation

2009-12-01T11:22:00.000-08:00

I saw a lot of examples of sand animation. Everyone of them was impressive.

In this art, an artist creates a series of images using sand, a process which is achieved by applying sand to a surface and then rendering images by drawing lines and figures in the sand with one's hands.

Otherwise, some artist use a scenario with a few songs in this show. It seems like a short film. And sometimes people may cry while watching the show because of the meaning of scenario.

Here is a special example of this art. Video was from a talent competition of Ukranie. Please complete watching, don't cut at the half. Because the end of the video was amazing and so meaningful.

P.S.:If you wonder about the history (Why people crying?) or about the musics that performs while the sand animation, you may reach all of them in here.

A Great Actor | Şener Şen

2009-10-31T05:30:00.000-07:00

Sener Sen.. Turkish cinema history has already written his name with gold letters.

He is also at the top of my favorite actor list. In his films you exactly feel him. If he is acting a comedy you really feel good, in his drama films you feel the pain.. Other words, if he is acting in a film you feel the difference easily. Most of films are still playing on Turkish TV Channels. And people (like me) watch his films without boring, again and again. He is an alive legend for me.

Another reason that love him is, Sener Sen was born in Adana, my city. By the way he was born in 26 December 1941 as the son of Ali Sen. Ali Sen is a famous actor also in Turkish cinema.

You can reach the filmography of Sener Sen by clicking here.

Finally I wanna say something about his last movie; KABADAYI. I watched the film in cinema and after it I watched the movie many times. Kenan Imirzalioglu, Rasim Oztekin and of course Sener Sen was incredible in their roles. I offer you to watch the movie. imdb point 7.9/10

Akcent - That's My Name

Restlessly Rhythm.. Nowadays my favorite song..

Boy A

2009-10-26T14:15:00.000-07:00

Who Decides Who Gets A Second Chance?

Crime, drama, romance.. Boy A is a sadly story of Jack.

A crime changed his life into a hell.. Crime was in his childhood years but effects of it always follow him up, in the present also in the future... And naturally this effects will cause very afflictive results.

I wanna say something about the acting performance of Adrew Garfield as Jack at movie. His acting was very successful and impressive, I think. He is so uneasy, he is so foreign and also he is too alone in his role. This was exactly the director's expectations also.

Movie has 7.9/10 imdb points..

Vuelvo Al Sur.. Koop remix version..
Bossa nova rhythms, whistling vocals, seagulls and ocean waves.. What a amazing ambient?
Feel the difference of Astor Piazzolla..

Walking

2009-10-14T14:20:00.000-07:00

Today I joined a business meeting. After that I went to the bus-stop to go home. I usually wait for the bus.. But today, I couldn't wait. I don't know why? But suddenly I decided to walk, just walk..

Then I started walking..

I saw a lot of faces, a lot of people.. I heard sounds.. Streets, roads, traffic, sellers, homeless guys..

I was in the middle of city but I felt alone..

Robbie Williams - Feel Live

This concert was in Knebworth at 2003. I listened this version maybe hundred times! And I belive that is better than original version. Sometimes the crowd sings louder than him. What a feeling?

2009-10-12T05:20:00.000-07:00

Sometimes my feelings get a complex form. I feel happy in a bad time period for example.

I got a bad news a few minutes ago from my family and I am so unrestful. But suddenly this picture is appeared in front of me when I was surfing on the web. I am still unrestful but this picture remember the full part (1/2) of the glass. And got me smile... She is so sweet ha?

İstanbul Not Constantinople

2009-10-08T03:36:00.000-07:00

Today I'm gonna go to Istanbul for Cebit, business and my friends.. Before I go, I want to write something about Istanbul.

Istanbul is the city of sensations, I think.. Every kind of feeling you can find in this city. In other words every kind of feeling can find you easily. Love, pain, hope etc..

Sometimes you smile and just look the Bosphorus and wind whispers a song for you.. Sometimes you feel alone in the middle of crowded.. Sometimes you are with a lovely girl/boy in a lovely time, sometimes you hate everybody because of Istanbul.. Maybe you are dieing when everyone supposes you are alive. Maybe you are in a dream that never ends..

This city is Istanbul guys, you will never guess the other day, city just lets you to feel the moment..

They Might Be Giants - İstanbul Not Constantinople

They Might Be Giants is an American post punk group which established in 80's but they got their popularity in 90's. In a short period they were so popular but it didn't go like that. Here i shared their most popular song Istanbul Not Constantinople.

Kazım Koyuncu

2009-10-07T08:19:00.000-07:00

He is a famous singer from Turkey. His music style was amazing. In his first years at music, almost no one is listening Rock music in Turkey.. But he started Rock music with Blacksea instruments.. This was a courageous start up.. And he created a Laz Rock music group (Zugasi Berepe) in 1993. This was the first in the world.. Actually, none of these are the reason of this post.

I am writing Kazım, because his death was very difficult for Turkey also for me.. He died because of cancer ,he was catched cancer in his childhood. In 1986 a big nuclear central accident was happened (Çernobil) in Kiev, Ukraine. The accident had big effects in Europe and Turkey also.. Especially in Blacksea side cities of Turkey.. Kazım was born in (Hoba) Trabzon and this city was in Blacksea side..

In short, we losed a beatiful and young human in 2005 beacuse of a f*cking nuclear accident. Some of us said 'He is too young, his death was early for us'. But everybody knows death comes always in correct time. And Kazım will never come back. We'll just listen his amazing music and pray God for him. God bless you Kazım. We'll never forget you.. Here is a famous song of him 'Didou'

Love Song - 311

2009-10-06T10:29:00.000-07:00

Here, there is a great cover. A covered song that performed by Cure first. Then this group (311) took the song and we loved the new version very much. Maybe there are a lot of guys who can't remember the song's original version. Why? Here is the answer..

'50 First Dates' is a funny and lovely movie. And this song is more powerfull with the scenes of the movie.. In other words song is more addicted with love..

Tango, Pacino And Woman

2009-10-06T10:08:00.000-07:00

This title obviously tell the name of story.. Scent Of A Woman.. I'll mention about my critics and comments of this movie later. But in my first post, i'll try to tell a scene of the movie.. A scene that is so populer and almost every Al Pacino fan knows it..

A blind (old) man and a beautiful girl, they don't know each other, they are not lovers. But they shows us a perfect performance. It seems like the tango is explaining in this scene.. Must see
