Candidates for my Spanish Movie












For two weeks now I have been preparing to make a movie using the ''moviemaker'' which consists of my pictures in Spain with a musical background ,,,,
Still: I am looking for a song , everytime I make up my mind on one I just change my mind and i go looking for a better one ,,, those two songs are good , but i dont know if they work for my movie ,, do they?

Vuelvo a Granada: I Go back to Granada ...




This song is too old , to be specific from the year 1969 ... It says 4 fine phrases:
I Go back To Granada
Which Is my Home
Among my People
I find Happiness

Hos simple and how TRUE!!

I miss Granada ... I deeply and crazily do ...

A spanish poem by Antonio Machado


Soñé que tú me llevabas
por una blanca vereda,
en medio del campo verde,
hacia el azul de las sierras,
hacia los montes azules,
una mañana serena.

Sentí tu mano en la mía,
tu mano de compañera,
tu voz de niña en mi oído
como una campana nueva,
como una campana virgen
de un alba de primavera.

¡Eran tu voz y tu mano,
en sueños, tan verdaderas!...

Vive, esperanza, ¡quién sabe
lo que se traga la tierra

13 th Japanese Speech Contest: The Good Old Days

Well before anything , I am starting to get Canon sick ,,, the battery of Haiku Chan is driving me crazy , the camera turned off half way throught the ceremony ,,, I suffocated!!

Anyways ,, Today I attended my third Japanese Speech (my third but the thirteenth of the activity .. wow 13!!) ... It was very nice - as always- too awkward but very nice. God nothing in my life is gonna be that awkward , I can be so sure about that !!!

I could not catch the Haiku section but I attended all the speeches , especially the one of my dear Tamara san,,, mmmm ,, it was interesting , it looks like many many things have happened behind my back while I was in Spain heheheh , she looks happy , love how her eyes twinkle , but I cant help being worried ,,, every time a friend of mine gets involved in a similar thing i get worried for her twinkling eyes ,,, I pray that they never change ever Ya rubbb ...

Alaa san was amazing ,, you just know it when you are seeing a winning speech, he was great and he managed to leave a great impact on the judges and the audience as well.
But the best of all was Ahmad san , Thanks to God he WON!!! I was extremely happy , clapping and jumping in my seat as they said his name. Ahmad san succeeds every time in turning a very personal thing to a common matter , where ever one feels involved and enthusiastic. He always managed to do so in his tiny phrases given as examples in class , along in his funny chit chats after class and finally in his speech. God!! It must feel deeply good winning the "Japanese Speech Contest"!! Its officially being the best jordanian figure in japanese stuff!!!
I got to see Fawz san and Hasna san and listen to the music of japanese language once more. It has been so long since I last spoke japanese , it was in Cordoba when i wandered with the japanese girls ,,, I bet they lost the piece of paper that has my email ,,,,
Every time I go to the Speech Contest I feel like I am entering a new level of existence ,,, We are a tiny group of people in a room in the university of Jordan sharing a secret. People outside the room have no idea about the pleasure we are having listening to each other ,, I always wonder if contestants would have talked about the same subjects if the contest was in arabic ,,,

We get to be some body else for a while , and in a time like this , being totally rocked by the change I need that ,, I really do ,, I am happy that mom made me go ,, Really happy

Happy Birthday Novel :)

In a day like this one 4 years ago i was on a nice spot in the beach of Aqaba writing the last chapter of my novel. It looks so hazy , so old and far but so true ,,, its a part of a life that I am proud I lived , and although I have kept my literal silence for the last four years but i am not worried ,, I feel something in the air , its coming to me , and when it does I will welcome it as warmly as I did with the first novel ... Pray for me

Color Morenoooo




¡¡ Ya !!
Bamboleo Bambolea
porque mi vida yo la quiero vivir así
Bamboleo Bambolea
porque mi vida yo la quiero vivir así
Tiene mi Cuba un sol y una cantina,
hecha de caña y ron y agua marina
el cantinero es un buen cubano
que una historia de amor
lo volvió malo
Cantinero de Cuba, Cuba, Cuba
Cantinero de Cuba, Cuba, Cuba
solo bebe aguardiente para olvidar
Cantinero de Cuba, Cuba, Cuba
Cantinero de Cuba, Cuba, Cuba
solo bebe aguardiente para olvidar
Obí, Obá
cada día te quiero más
obí, obí, obí, obá
cada día te quiero más
obí, obí, obí, obá
cada día te quiero más
Obí, Obá
cada día te quiero más
obí, obí, obí, obá
cada día te quiero más
obí, obí, obí, obá
cada día te quiero más
Se pasaba el día haciendo surcos
junto a la burra
ella estaba en el pueblo
tras la ventana con su costura
el regaba la tierra con su sudor
esperando la noche con ilusión
un día muy cansado se va p'al pueblo
pa ver la a ella
miró por la ventana pero no estaba
tras de la reja
donde estará mi novia se preguntó
y el eco de la noche le respondió
a tu novia la vieron la otra mañana
hablando de quereres tras la ventana
un mozo con dinero la ha enamorao
la separó de ti, se la llevao
a tu novia la vieron la otra mañana
hablando de quereres tras la ventana
un mozo con dinero la ha enamorao
la separó de ti, se la llevao
Me va, me va, me va, me va, me va
me va la gente, me va la vida
de aqui y de alla
me van las cosas que son sencillas
de comprender, me va el amor de verdad
Me va, me va, me va, me va, me va
me va la noche y el tibio sol del amanecer
me va el paisaje, las golondrinas
y el rio aquel
me va el amor de verdad
Porque mi guitarra está completamente
enamorada de ti
sobre mi pecho
la presenti y no la vi
Porque mi guitarra está completamente
enamorada de ti
sobre mi pecho
la presenti y no la vi
Color moreno
el color de la cara de los rumberos
color moreno
el que tiene la flamenca por los senderos
color moreno
el color de la gitana que yo más quiero
color moreno
el color de la arena
del camino rociero
hago el camino
los pinares y prados verdes
la luz de una candela
la luna y el reverte
hago el camino
los pinares y prados verdes
voy contando los días
que faltan para verte
Ay peregrina, Ay peregrina
corazón mío
por decir tu nombre
por decir tu nombre
yo digo Rocío
Ay peregrina, Ay peregrina
corazón mío
por decir tu nombre
por decir tu nombre
yo digo Rocío
Bamboleo Bambolea
porque mi vida yo la quiero vivir así
Bamboleo Bambolea
porque mi vida yo la quiero vivir así.
