My oh my!

I’ve been wanting to post for the last couple of days, but I just haven’t been able to find the time, things have been hectic as usual, and I’ve been a teensy bit absent unfortunately.

These last days I’ve been obsessively and compulsively been listening to balkan, big band and swing music non-stop, I really do mean non-stop!
A couple of weeks ago I received a DVD that my good friend Funda sent to me with 2.3Gb in music, pure balkan and swing music, for that I decide to dedicate this post to you Funda *kissy kissy*!

So im tired… I went to bed at 6am to wake up at 7.30am… I ended up waking up at 8.15am…which made my way to Uni total chaos… I woke up in a jolt, threw on whatever was on my bathroom floor, RAN to my car, broke about 2 dozen traffic laws, parked my car in a not so orthodox way if you know what I mean, RAN all across campus and arrived just in time for my 8.30am class… I mean, how cool is that? *giggle*

So I hope this post tickles your fancy!

    Hello Miss Lotus! You just have to check out this podcast on Stones Throw, it’s called the Turkish Funk mix by Egon. That mix has single handedly made me want to move to Turkey! You have to use Itunes or a podcast reader to see the links using this url:
