Lionder in Athens

**SPOILER ALERT** Okay, Pretty Little Liars just ended and I don't know how to feel. Firstly, I feel sad because that was it! It ended. And I was feeling so much empathy for the characters and the protagonists that they even made it to my phone wallpaper. You see now? haha I LOVED the show and I appreciate it so much. I'm so happy to have viewed this TV show. It was epic and GENIUS. Let's talk about my experience. One thing that I'll regret is that I was very curious to know more about the characters. I never wanted to know the end of the seasons or anything that had to do with the plot and the scenario. All I wanted to do was to come closer to the actresses' reality, be a fan of them and just follow them on their journey. But that curiosity of mine lead to me not enjoying the BIG REVEALS because guess what. Internet is freaking full of SPOILERS. Like, please, have mercy on me. Don't ruin it all! Don't you ruin it all for me. It's so unfair. ...

Hello, guys.. It's been so many days since I last updated you... Now, I'm listening to Suspicion by the amazing LP.. I heard this song yesterday on the radio and it has such a great and fresh sound combined with the great classic LP style... Is it summer? Well, now, I feel like it is. I'm not 100 percent sure but at least I think so. No worries in my mind, no more homework, no more exams, no more crap. I feel like I am finally breathing some air, if you know what I mean. I feel the need to just rest and not give a damn about anything. However, there are some upcoming shows for which I have to think about but at least I'm not gonna spend my whole day studying ancient Greek and Latin or history. God, I'm no more a slave of those bitches. And don't get me wrong, I love Ancient Greek BUT right now, at this particular moment of my life, I'm so SICK OF 'EM. sick, sick, sick. How are my days? I sleep late. I hate it. But I can't control it. Today I s...

I'm in the final way. In case you didn't know I am just a week away from the "Panellinies" exams (the exams you have to pass to study in a university in Greece) and I don't know how to feel.  The whole process is kind of stressful, you feel exhausted, you don't get too much sleep, you have to get a lot of knowledge inside your brain and the whole situation is overwhelming. They purposely try to make you see this is the BIGGEST DEAL of your life. And it works! All of these hours studying for this goal, for a goal that means the world to me this moment of my life -getting to study in my favourite university- have made me crave this so much that it feels like the greatest deal of my life. And it is indeed a great deal to get into the university of your choice and being able to study something that you actually love. But is it worth it to put yourself in such a stress?  They make it look like it's worth it. Because they created this situation. T...

Hello, everyoneeee... This is Lionder and welcome to another blogpost of mine. Today we're going to be talking a lot about music. Hope you enjoy!  Right now, I'm laying on my sofa and I'm watching Eurovision . I really like this competition. I've been watching it since I could use my eyes and ears -see & hear- because it was always a family tradition to gather around and watch it. I have to admit that Eurovision in the past used to be SO GOOD. The songs were so good and upbeat and catchy. Not all of them of course. But it still is a great competion. People meet each other's culture and ideas through music. My favourite entry EVER is Greece's 2005 entry with "My number one" by Helena Paparizou . That song was AMAZE-BALLS. Not only the song, but the whole performance. It was an English upbeat song with some kind of Greek style -Greek instruments etc-. And there are no words to describe Helena Paparizou who is as beautiful as a Greek Goddess in my ...

How are you, everyone? I hope you're doing well!  Life is great, life is beautiful. Everything's going to go just fine. Don't worry.  Today I'm going to talk about different stuff so don't expect a cohesion between the topics. I really wanted to talk to you about my trip to Thessaloniki , Yannena, Meteora, Larissa, Kastoria and other beautiful places in Greece but unfortunately I can't. And that's because the internal hard driver of my PC is damaged due to normal causes (we've been using it for 10 years or so and our technical supporter told us that it's normal for it to be damaged after all of that time).  The bad thing is that photos and videos of my trip to those places are all in there and now I can't get access to the files. Hopefully, some day soon I'll be able to. But for now I can't. So, (since words don't express what is being expressed with photos) don't expect a blog post about that. :( And there are so many memo...

This is my new song -Antio- (Which means "Goodbye" in Greek).  The Story behind it:  A beloved aunt of mine passed away in the middle of March in 2016 and the same day she died, pain was so deep that I wanted to express it in a paper. So, I wrote this Greek song.  and I uploaded it on her birthday: March 5th It's so hard losing someone you love and it's even harder to go back to the time that you lost that person. That's why I was never in the mood to write this blog post.  That woman was a very lovely woman, had a very lovely soul and the only thing I remember the most is that I've always seen her smiling. There was always a smile on her face, I've never seen her the other way.  A month after I wrote this song, I wrote 3 poems for her in 2 hours in her 40 day memorial.  The feeling that you feel when someone has just died -the atmosphere, the air, everything- is the worst feeling I have ever experienced.  About the video:  W...

STORY TIME!  Before I begin telling you my story, I would like to say that I'm Leander and I'm so happy that you're here for one more time and if you are a new reader, I'd be happy to know that you like our content and become a part of our little family over here. Thank you.  Now, It's time for story time!  On September of 2016, my idol Lady Gaga released her first pop song in 3 years "Perfect Illusion". You can't imagine how much happy I was when I learned about the news that it would come out soon and you can't imagine how much happier I became when I listened to the song for the first time.  To be more specific, I woke up in the morning, went to YouTube, and without even having opened my eyes completely I streamed it and it felt like paradise. It was just like heaven. I don't how heaven looks like or feels like or anything, but the only thing that I know is that I fell in love with the song and if heaven gates exist, I know they pl...
