Sexy Language Mixing

21 October, 2009 | Loving Relationships, Self-Expression and Creativity | By Rose

Víkþórr and I have a fetish in common: we are language fetishists. Languages and grammar turn us on. Beyond that, we also have a lot of non-sexual fun communicating in different languages. We mix languages all the time, to express ourselves, to explain things, to fight, and to love each other.
We speak English most of [...]

Will you Write a Novel next Month?

17 October, 2009 | Self-Expression and Creativity | By Rose

November is National Novel Writing Month! Who will join me and write a novel? :-)
The goal is to write one 50,000-word novel between November 1st and November 30th, midnight, no matter how crappy it is. I think this is fun! And it’s less than 2,000 words a day. Should be doable.
Have you ever dreamed of [...]

First Adjective Story

15 October, 2009 | Self-Expression and Creativity | By Rose

Víkþórr and I wrote our first common adjective story a couple months ago. We chose to write it in English, since English is the language that the sum of us masters best. ;-)
In case you don’t know what an adjective story is, the principle is simple: one person writes a story, but leaves all adjectives [...]

New Habit #5 – Blogging every day

18 June, 2009 | Self-Expression and Creativity | By Rose

I learn one new habit each month. The new habit for month #5 was blogging every day. This is about the challenges I encountered and what harms my productivity.

One New Habit a Month Challenge #5: Blogging

20 May, 2009 | Self-Expression and Creativity | By Rose

There are so many great daily habits that I’d like to adopt. Every month I have a hard time choosing. This time, I let my intuition guide me. It told me that the most appropriate new habit now is “blogging every day for at least one hour”.
I’m surprised. There are many other habits which I [...]

A Few More Beautiful Tibetan Songs

7 March, 2009 | Self-Expression and Creativity | By Rose

As some of you know, I’m fond of contemporary Tibetan music. I already shared many of my favorite songs here. Now I found a few more that I absolutely love and thought I’d share them too.

The Dalai Lama song. Isn’t it beautiful?

A song by Tsetan, Choedar & Nyimdol: Lokphepdang. Every time I listen to this [...]

Beautiful Tibetan Songs

15 May, 2008 | Self-Expression and Creativity | By Rose

I’d like to share with you some of my favorite Tibetan songs. They’re so beautiful. Don’t expect meditating monks though – this is contemporary stuff.
What I noticed first is that there are many songs about the Land of Snows, its identity and its political situation. This one is a very beautiful example. Can’t stand watching [...]

Baroque Music I – Vivaldi

4 February, 2008 | Self-Expression and Creativity | By Rosine Caplot

Guess what my computer’s name is? It’s Antonio, in honor of Antonio Vivaldi. I love Vivaldi. He’s amazing, he’s got such a power! Listen to that BOMB. So much energy, so much life! There is just everything in his music. Sometimes he’s melancholic, sometimes playful and light. He’s painfully sensitive at times, he can be [...]

Dancing Tango Argentino

2 January, 2008 | Self-Expression and Creativity | By Rosine Caplot

I HAVE to tell you about tango! I love dancing tango argentino. When I dance, I have a wonderful feeling of freedom and lightheartedness. I can express myself, express the music, express my feelings about the music and about my partner. That makes me so happy. Every time I dance tango, I feel in love [...]
