  7. Siu

    Hugs and kisses! :huglove:

    I've finally done with my work and I've simply relaxed and taken it easy the whole day :naughty:! Feels so good :blush-anim-cl:.

     

    How are you, Alba?

     

    :huglove:

    Everything around the smile or what I was disguising?
  9. Siu
    In case of the given photo... well... it is safer to simply focus on the smile and try to ignore the rest

    Oh, dear Alba! I just noticed I hadn't answered :blink:. I'm still working like mad - two more days to go and then I'm free :thumb_yello:

     

    I remember seeing a post by tiibet where she said she gave the yearbook to MIKA. No tweets about it though :dunno:. Unless I'm missing something.

     

    Hope you're doing good and hope having more time to chat soon!

    :huglove:

    Last week-end I made the most delicious apple-almond-marzipan-pie I've ever had What you need is: For the pastry 180 g all-purpose flour 85 g caster sugar 125 g butter (from fridge) 1 small egg For the topping 50 g butter 150 g marzipan 1 tsp all-purpose flour juice of 1 lime 4 big apples 25 g sliced almonds Make the pastry first. Cut flour, sugar and cold butter into fine crumbs, add the egg and press the pastry into a ball. Pressing with your fingers, line a 25 cm (10 inch) spring-form tin with the pastry. Put into a fridge for 30 minutes to rest, then bake at 200 C for 10 minutes. Grate the marzipan with a coarse grater. In a saucepan melt the butter, add the grated marzipan, lime juice and flour. Heat and stir until the mixture is smooth. Remove the saucepan from the cooker. Peel and grate the apples, again with a coarse grater, and cover the half-baked cake. Spoon the marzipan-butter mixture evenly on the apples. Scatter almond slices on top. Bake at 200 C for another 30 minutes or until the pie is golden. Leave the pie to cool (if you can ) and enjoy!

    I'll try not to pressure . Luckily, she can't normally be pressured to do anything

    But look where her approach got him. Not that he hadn't otherwise... @astor - It's the regretting-giving-up-piano/singing/etc-lessons that worries me a bit, but yeah, she certainly does have some time
  14. Siu
    She's 6. But she has a mind of her own . I'm happy she at least agreed to taking dancing lessons this term and as for now, I don't feel I should be pushing her to start with singing lessons again, mostly because we don't know whether we will be moving back in six months or stay for another year and if we did leave the coming summer, it would only be another thing she'd have to leave behind and maybe miss. There has to be a golden middle between forcing and letting it be . What I have started doing is tricking her into performing to us . She picks a song she likes, learns to play it on the piano and sings to us. We've had some nice discussions concerning what was good and what could be improved and how, and luckily, for the time being, she doesn't object . Already it has has a positive impact on her confidence, so we'll keep it up.

    She sure does have a brilliant voice . I wonder, how to get a kid to enjoy singing and feel confident about it? My daughter has such a good ear for music. She sings beautifully and learned to play her favorite songs on the piano independently just by listening and is now starting to do the same on the guitar. She had singing lessons at 3 and 4 years and when we moved country her singing teacher urged us to continue with her music education. But first she had a language barrier and we didn't want to push her. Now she claims she's simply not interested any more . I've always wanted to be a good singer and maybe I'm simply trying to achieve my ambitions through her . But since she does have talent, I'd like to see her work on it. Not to gain world-wide fame . Simply for her own pleasure and for the sake of accomplishment. She doesn't understand it now, but one day she might regret not having used the gift she has

    Sure Isn't she adorable? I turned off the sound and covered the left half of the screen and simply enjoyed her acting.

    She's Mexican, if I'm not mistaken, and only 10 . Her articulation is unclear here and there and there are a few other things, but overall I like her interpretation and her voice a lot. As for Adele, she's like a female version of MIKA for me - I completely fangirl her. For her music, her voice, for her down-to-earthness.

    Not often am I a fan of covers but this is mind-blowing. Girlishly innocent, powerful and simply amazingly talented [YOUTUBE]a7UFm6ErMPU[/YOUTUBE]

    He's hot even in tartan trousers :naughty:. It's like the gray-spotted t-shirt that looks absolutely ridiculous on Martin, yet MIKA wears it to perfection :wub2:. Or all the other wierdish things he wears that would look awful on others but astonishingly good on him :wink2:

    Mid-2012 :blink:!? I haven't had time to fully follow many threads, but where did that pop out now? First it was Feb, then April (I wouldn't object to the album be released on my Bday :wub2:), but we have to wait even longer! Oh, noes! :sad:

  21. Siu
    *coughs* *coughs* *coughs* Funny how Martin looks so ridiculous in the shirt

    I hope you're having as beautiful and sweet dreams as the pic is :wink2:

    :huglove:

  23. Siu
    Eriko, :bow:
  24. Siu
    What a shame! I'm sure though that in 6 months the most the old record will be broken Yet April seems so far away
  25. Siu
    So another one who doesn't like BTT If you don't like something and you're forced to be around it, isn't it a punishment? For us, NO! For MIKAhaters, I'd say yes Isn't rehabilitation a (sometimes illusionary) aim of incarceration? Going to MIKAgigs could convert them
