Jack and Jill

Hello!

Being obsessed with Pretty Little Liars so much! I'm watching it all the time.

And so, there is this Season 1 Episode 2 and this amazing song is playing while Aria and Ezra are looking at each other in the classroom - so magical. It's called Jack and Jill and is sang by Katie Herzig. Lovely one...

Love,             Terez

The Hobbit

Hello everyone,

so, lately I've just been wondering about this movie The Hobbit. I denied watching it because the director of this movie is suited for harming over 30 "co-starring" animals by holding them under terrible conditions. Even though I haven't forgotten about this now I really wanna watch this movie!

So, to make the mood I'll post this song from soundtrack of the first The Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring movie. I remember listening to this with my bro and having a very good time... Ahh, makes me think about my childhood. :-) Enjoy!

Love....      Terez

Zana and Nadia Muhsen II. - Happy Ending

Hello people,

before I start - Happy New Year to you!
Last post I shared was about Zana and Nadia Muhsen who were in 1980 married at ages 15 and 14, dragged to Yemen and forced to live here under impossibly cruel life conditions - for example forced to sexual intercourse. The book Sold that describes their story ends badly - Zana is back home but years pass and Nadia is still in Yemen with all of their kids.

So what's happened to Nadia? Is Nadia back in England now? Is Nadia still in Yemen? I finally found the answer.

Nadia and the children are now safely back in the UK. Marcus (Zana's son) came looking for his mother as soon as he turned 18, just as Zana always hoped he would.

How did I find out? By an advice of one internet user I wrote an e-mail to Andrew Crofts -- co-writer of the book Sold. He answered immediately and very politely and I was very glad to read his kind words. I wanna say huge thanks to him for answering and bringing peace to me.

Love, people                           Terez

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,

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,

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.
