Zana and Nadia Muhsen

Hello guys,

I spent yesterday reading this book called: Sold - The Story of Modern-Day Slavery.

This book is by real story that began in 1980 when father sold and married his two daughters without their knowledge. They've been taken to Yemen's mountain village far away from civilisation. Each of them lived in different family and was forced to sex and hard work. They couldn't escape or come back home, not even meet each other for months. Their fathers-in-law were very cruel to them and would beat them up if sisters didn't follow his statements. Sisters both gave a birth. Older one - Zana Muhsen - to Marcus and Nadia Muhsen to three children.

The ending of the Nadia story here

When six years passed they found a way to contact their mother and after another two years they could leave this horrible village but not country and lived in rented house in the city, waiting for Yemen's government's decision. The law in Yemen is that if married couple divorces, the children stay with the father. Nadia couldn't leave her kids but Zana left promising to Nadia she's gonna get her out there with all of their children. But another years pass and Nadia is still in Yemen, even comes back from the city to the cruel village, is under control of her father-in-law and is pregnant again.

                                 (back in Yemen - Nadia on the left, Zana on the right)

I finished this unbelievable book in one day - I just couldn't stop. And I couldn't believe the end so again, I've been been doing some research and found the answer - here.

So, I wish happiness, luck, love and health to you, don't let anyone take your freedom... ever...            Terez

Home

Hello people,

been gone for a while - lost in my crazy brain. Hard to explain.

Meanwhile I'm listening to Gabrielle Aplin. It's been a while since I've found some artist as talented as her! She is amazing and has very special voice colour. Surely am going to post more songs by her!

This one is called Home and this video is from live session. There is even a studio version of this amazing song but this performance is just so special I want you guys to see it.

Love and merry Christmas, people!           Terez

Keep You

Hello people,

really sucky things keep on happening to me lately. Now I even don't get to our cottage this weekend and I really miss nature - godamn this town with all the rush!
But I've already decided I'm at least going to do this one amazing thing... I'll let you know about it very soon.

Today I'm giving you this collest song by Wild Belle - the song I discovered by a lucky accident. It's called Keep You and I'm into it so!
Enjoy!

Love,              Terez

Lisztomania

Hello people,

have you heard of this band called Phoenix? Because they are amazing!

They are playing some sort of indie rock music. I love their style. This song is called Lisztomania and is so powerful. Have a listen to it for sure.

Love,          Terez

Can You Save Me

Hello people,

I'm watching this show Covert Affairs at the moment, while I'm writing this.
Annie Walker is just an amazing woman, isn't she? She can fight, shoot, speak at least billion languages... and  she's beautiful. I'm not lesbian, it's just a compliment from perfectly straight woman.

So, song I'm posting today is the theme song for Covert Affairs. It's called Can You Save Me and is by Flint Eastwood - formerly Power. Check this out, people.

Love,                  Terez

Where I Come From

Hello,

I watched The Breaking Dawn Part 2 today!
Ok, to be honest - I didn't like any of the Twilight  movies after the very first one. They were so not like the book and made Edward - the most  romantic creature in the whole world - look bad!
But this last one? It's perfect -  It reminded me of the first movie's atmosphere and awesomeness so much and I even recognized so many sentences from the book...
I actually cried so much at the end when everything ended good and you know it'll be like this forever.

So, I'm giving you a song from the soundtrack to this movie. It's by Passion Pit  and is called Where I Come From. I've known Passion Pit  before but didn't know this song and it's so sweet! Check it out.

I wish you luck in whatever it is you do.          Terez

Joanna

Hello,

my brother is genius (not just) in music! He found the coolest page grooveshark.com. You put in your favorite music and this page shows you what other music you could like. It totally works.
Because of this page bro recently found an amazing band called Little Comets! They're playing lovely british indie rock (extra points to them for british - british accent is the coolest). And I am absolutely into them since summer.
So, I'm giving you their song Joanna that is so catchy and good at the same time. You definitely wait 'til the chorous - it's woth it I promise!

Have a great day!           Terez
