Way To Go!

DJ Earworm - World Go Boom (United State of Pop 2011)

It's June already! So how's your May, everyone? Lovely? Well, I had the best May ever! Like, this is the first month where I spend my new days as a college student (again) in Milan, completely. Which can be says, I've done my first challenge from my old friends in Russia: that I would survive for once again! Uh, seems like the time's ticking so fast that I can't even feel the changes that much. I hope the June's warmth will bring happiness to you as well :) Live happily!

Much love, Sera

Sneaking

I'll be very busy for the next 12 hours. Checking for thousands of papers due the day after tomorrow, reading lots and lots and lots of books--I'm a law student so "reading" activity is more like a family for me. The exams are about to begin in seconds. I'm counting down, for sure. But there are still some things I would like to tell you. Especially my "Russian Beauties" photography series which still left a few more photos to be published. Next time, I'll try to sum them up. Tschuss!

Much love, Sera

Russian Beauties Part 2

So yeah, here are the second pack of photos about the Russian Beauties I talked before, here. This time I bring you the lovely Anastasia Netavskaya for once again. She's so lovely, isn't she? :) We took different place and day from the first one and it's been amazing to roaming around the park with camera hanging on my neck and beautiful ladies :D The boys must be so envy with me, teehee.

Much love, Sera

Russian Beauties Part 1

I might will catch a cold. Last night I kept awake over 2 am and then went to bed but couldn't sleep so I just laid awake for the next 3 hours. At 5 I opened my Mac and read some new e-mails, found a collaboration offer, pen-pals, compliments, and critics. Nothing new so I continued by editing the photos I've taken last week when I was in St. Petersburg for my old best friends :) Taking portraits has always been my natural talent. I love seeing world's beauties especially European and Asian people. As for this time, I'm gonna bring you the beautiful Anastasia Netavskaya from Russia, hope you like the shots! :)

Much love, Sera

Gaps Between Words

Doing blogwalking and found this blog :) I stopped and read this post and kind of interested since I haven't edited my outfit posts. So this is what I do in my spare time; surfing. In the internet. Sometimes when music can't be the right place for me to escape, I chose internets. Beautiful.... And pathethic :D

So here 12 questions I'm gonna answer from Chaca:
What is the most impressive image/photo in your life as long as you can remember?
- This one. Because it was the first time I wore bikinis in front of a guy--in front of my boyfriend, to be exact.
Do you believe in The Secret or Law of Attraction? If yes, what you do in relation to that?
- Ha? What's this? -__-
Vintage or sophisticated modern style?
- Modern style, definitely.
What makes you follow a blog?
- Depends on what's the blog about. But first of all, I'll look at the overall web-design. I hate it when I found fashion blogs with cool styles but unreadable posts. Geez, that pisses me off.
What makes you unsuscribe/dislikes a blog?
- It's getting boring.
Do you have short daily tips, house maintenance, home remedies, or beauty homemade recipee? If you have, reveal to us, tell us what works for you.
- First, I DON'T HAVE ANY. So yeah, I always ask other people to help me.
What do you like most (a) bold colors, (b) deep dark colors, (c) neutral colors, (d) soft, pastell, or watercolor colors?
- A and B. I don't really that into pastels but for outfits, I'll always give any colours a time to shine :)
Are you collector of something? How you keep and display them?
- Oh yes, I collect magazines, cameras, photos, travel experiences, iPhone cases, and everything that's collectable. I don't really care about wasting lots of money. I'm a die-hard collector :D Every once in a week (I used to do this every Sunday, but now I do it everytime I have my spare time), I tend to clean my cameras, rearrange my magazines on the book-rack by alphabets, and keep a pile of photos in some albums based on the subjects. Then at the end of the day, I'll put them in a blank room which I've always prepared before I live in the house--cuz I'm-a-kind-of-moving-human-being, ya know~
Do you have big secret? (No need to mention what it is but if you would like to reveal now, throw it out and feel free).
- Yes. I broke my boyfriend's camera and (I think) he has no idea who did it. He tought his dog did so I guess I have to apologize to Bernie...
What some of must bring items in your travel for a week? The destination is up to you.
- My cameras, for sure. Maps of the destination, my phone, and a suitcase full of clothes for a week--no matter what kind of clothes. I can buy them later.
What is your favorite fairy tale or storybook children?
- Peterpan :)
What you like to do in the me-time?
- Eat a lot of foods. A lot of foods.

So here are the rules given:
1) You must post the rules.
2) Post 12 fun facts about yourself in the blog post. Answer the questions the tagger has set for you in their post and create 12 new questions for the fellow bloggers you plan to tag.
3) Tag 12 people and link to them on your blog.
4) Let them know you've tagged them.

While these ones are my questions:
+ Who's your favourite musician of all time?
+ What song recently represent you?
+ What's your music genre?
+ What makes you loving your idol at the first time until now?
+ What was the first reason you like a song?
+ Which era of music you like? The 70's, 80's, or nowadays? Why?
+ What genre you hate the most? Why?
+ Which one you care about, the singer or the song?
+ How can you hate a song?
+ If you could choose one song for your forever song in your life, what would it be? Why?
+ If you can colaborate with a musician, who would it be? (Beside your favourite musician).
+ Last but not least, why you like/dislike music?

I'm no good in making questions. But recently I've been surrounded by artsy people in music. Lucas has started off his music course with some new friends at my uni and Lucia also trying to teach me some piano lessons. I hope I can make it this time! :) I've tagged you, my readers. Feel free to answer my questions if you have time and simply tell me by commenting this post. I'd love to read your answers!

Much love, Sera

Shooting Photos

Yesterday I photographed the beautiful Maria Sklodowska, Lucas' old-time friend originally from Warsaw, Poland and now is a Milan-based freelance model. It was very strange meeting someone who has another precious past years with Lucas as me--yes, Maris is Lucas' ex-girlfriend :) When Lucas isn't around, we gosipped about him LOL. Maris really is a fun, playful, and quirky girl. I love how the way she dress-up herself all alone, hunting secondhand stuffs on thrift stores, etc. She will be heading to NYC in June and needed some test shots to show different agencies. Good luck, Maria! :)

Much love, Sera

Promise I'll Be Back...

Everybody has a dream, I hope at least! Because it's one of the most important things in life to know what you want to achieve and work hard for it! Recently I've been dreaming to be living back in my ex-hometown, Paris. Not because London isn't enough (oh this 2 cities is just the same!). But it's been 5 years ago since I last stepped my feet there. I still can feel it, those times when I lived in an old building with my family, my 2 little sisters, and the other cousins as our neighbours. I remember how when I woke up with a smile because I knew I was in the most beautiful place back then. Went to a boulangerie every morning with my dogs and feeling happy.

That was finally when I made up my mind that reality is much better than my dreams...

Much love, Sera
