My DIY project for today... Familiar colours, don't you think?
-
As the schools are closed in many countries, let's begin with a lesson of geography...
(it's quite old so it's not really up-to-date anymore but I think it's still really catchy...)

@Anna Ko Kolkowska I have to say I still like the cartoon version better, he is even dancing...

Just a little story... Today I went to a concert which was a part of Prague Pride. At the very beginning before the first performance they started to play Grace Kelly. I know, it's the most basic Mika song, but I was so happy to hear it. However, after the first seconds I realized it's a cover! It was so weird to hear Grace Kelly without Mika's voice. It was so disappointing...

@Maria :) It's also really rare here to hear another song than GK or Relax. This was in a clothing store too. I walked by it and I had to stop and listen to the end of the song.
And I also found Mika's Pilot Pens at the supermarket. It's nice to "see" and hear Mika while shopping...

@Maria :) Good night!
-
I would even rather collect all editions of Mika's new album but pens are better than nothing...
I finally got my boxes yesterday, they are even nicer live than on all the photos I've seen before.

@Lilyen maybe you can buy them on Amazon

I've bought this month a new phone (after 8 years so it was quite needed) and already changed the background several times but I think I will keep this at least for a while...

I've found Songs for Sorrow on ebay.de "just" for 40 €, but the seller doesn't have any reviews and he/she is selling only this one item, so I'm not sure if it's trustful enough... But I thought it's an interesting price for the EP.

@Starlight Oh sorry, sometimes it's hard to recognize irony online...
-
@giraffeandy no problem
it's really hard without hearing the voice of someone.

An hour ago I arrived to Bolzano, I took the bus, found the hotel, checked in, found the venue and now I'm already 15 minutes queueing... I feel more sucessful and powerful than ever.

@Mikasister Thank you, I wasn't sure if travelling alone is a good idea but now I'm glad I did it... 🙂

@Mikasister Great, finally I got to see the big show with the stage even though I have to say in Zürich the setlist was better and I also didn't understand most of the things he said in Italian yesterday but the show was definitely worth it and I had a great view again so I'm really glad I went!

Today I had a terrible nightmare... One of those that feels so real!
It was about Mika being on an event with about 50 other famous people on a boat. Then the boat got lost and people were assuming it sank for some reason. I felt so miserable in the dream, I even cried, then I woke up and was so relieved it's not true but I think I will need a while till I get rid of that bad feeling... Luckily Mika won't be on a boat anytime soon.

@Starlight Yes, I have no idea why my brain came up with such a horrible story, I usually have rather good or neutral dreams thanks god! But I guess maybe the whole situation now produce some negative feelings that your brain proceeds at night... I don't know but it was by far the worst nightmare I had lately, I hope it was the last one too.
-
@Mikasister Yeah, the reality is a nightmare already...
Even though it's hard, I think it's a good idea, it's better to be safe than sorry...
Btw, the night before I had a dream I made it to Mallorca (I should have spent two weeks in July over there) but I had to take a bus, a boat, a train and I think one another vehicle because the planes didn't fly... The virus was still a topic but it wasn't as bad anymore. Not the greatest dream ever but at least much better than the one I dreamed tonight...
-
@giraffeandy That's true... all that is happening now is a nightmare...
@Mikasister A good idea... safety is so important at the moment...
-
Tonight I had a dream that Mika announced some new tour dates and he was coming to my city... I was so excited.

@giraffeandy good luck

@Dominika I really enjoyed the summerish atmosphere, the beautiful locations, the piano music in the background and in general the artistic, old-fashioned way it was made. Unfortunately it didn't hit me emotionally and it seemed a bit too long by the end... But overall a nice film, I liked it.

I won these FriXion Pens in a competition by Pilot Pen CZ!
Unfortunately it's not the gift pack but there are all six colours of the FriXion ball pens, I already had the one with the toucan but not the rest... 
-
I asked my best friend (she is not a fan) if she could borrow me her customer card to a bookstore and stationery since I discovered they'll have 20 % off this weekend for customers having the card and they sell at least some of the Mika pens. She agreed so I sent her pictures of the pens I want. She found them beautiful and then she wrote we have to go to the shop together because now she wants them too...

@silver That's interesting, it seems they don't sell all types everywhere. Today I checked several shops in my country which offer the Mika pens and they all have just both FriXion pens and G2 pens but no V5.

❤️ Merry Christmas to all of you!

When you're searching for hotels in Paris but booking.com doesn't know your budget...

SOS, please, are there any fans who ordered the I Love Beirut T-shirt from https://shop.virginemi.com/mika/?
I've paid for it on the 11. 9. I didn't receive it until now. Today the store charged me AGAIN. They charged the amount from my credit card today at night. I've already paid for the T-shirt and I didn't even get a shipping confirmation and now I have to pay once more? Does that happen to anybody else?

@silver I've checked my bank account again and it seems that they actually cancelled the payment from September and they charged it today. But I haven't noticed back then because in September, we were buying quite a lot of things... However, they could at least inform the customers that they will charge them later because I was sure I've already paid in September.
-
Well, at least they have not charged you twice. Quite a lot of companies take your payment details but only actually charge you when they despatch the goods. Maybe the September charge was their error and they refunded when they realised it. But I agree, they could have let you know what was happening.
-
@silver I've already ordered there once and back then I've paid immediately even though it still took a few days till the order has been dispatched... They probably realized they won't have the T-shirts in stock for a while so they decided to charge the money later but it would be nice to let me know because once I've got the payment confirmation and I've seen the amount on my bank account as blocked, I haven't checked afterwards if the payment was made for real. I know booking.com does that sometimes when they want to check if the client has enough money to pay the stay but I've never experienced that with a store.

Today marks two years since the first time I saw Mika live at a gig!

@Anna Ko Kolkowska I was going to take a bus or a train (but the bus was probably the cheapest option). However, I waited till May for the new schedule so then I didn't buy the ticket anymore. I just had to cancel my reservation for the B&B on booking.com but I didn't pay anything in advance.

@giraffeandy I have the same
Sometimes I would like to change regular songs with the bonus tracks But then probably nobody would like to buy deluxe editions
-
Mika's music should be available in the pharmacy because today I didn't sleep well and felt quite sick in the morning but then I started listening to MNIMH and I feel much better now... Not perfect, but I have still Mika's whole discography to heal me.

Today I've been with my best friend in our favourite café (it's mainly a gelateria but this time we had waffles
). They always have an Italian radio on, probably streaming it online. We've been talking and I didn't pay as much attention to the music but suddenly I heard Tomorrow! It made me so happy and I couldn't listen to my poor best friend telling me a story because of Mika singing in the background... - Show previous comments 1 more

@Mikasister But I felt so bad for her, she was telling me something and I had no idea what's going on because I was so distracted but I had to nod anyway even though I didn't understand what she was saying...

Do you already have the right shoes for the tour?

I felt there is a lot of moments of silence, and the story is too slow so I really get bored
