A Russian Girl

The smell of gasoline is in the air...
Suddenly, she feels raindrops.
A a group of pigeons immediately leaves the ground,
As soon as she passes.
She hears cars honking, dogs barking loudly.
There is a couple kissing under an umbrella,
Two men arguing loudly.

She leaves the tumultuous city center.

A small lake comes into her view.
Yellow lilies all over its' surface.
Ducks are making loud noises,
Trying to control their young.
She senses a strong essence of daisies..
.Falling on the soft, slighly wet grass,
She laughs loudly, happy as can be.

She walks into a white and teal building.

Walking up a small set of stairs,
She comes to an elevator.
Press the button, wait, hear the clinging-
The elevator is here.
She gets in, sensing an unpleasant aroma...
Was someone drinking here?
Press the number 9...
Up, up, up...

She gets out of the elevator.

Walking to the door number 75,
Trying not to look to her right-
The ninth floor platform is just too high...
Reaching into her purse, she gets her keys.
Turn the key right- the black door is open.
Turn another key left- the white door is.

She walks into her apartment.

Cats rub on her legs,
Happily greeting her.
She walks forward,
Opening the door in front of her.
Looking to her right,
She opens the balcony door.

She goes out.

Quickly making a paper airplane,
She comes closer to the railing.
Closer, closer- don't be afraid...
She looks down.
"My home" she thinks,
And throws her airplane,
Which flies so swiftly through the evening air...

How happy she is, just being a Russian girl.

It happens...

It is said that once upon a time, all the human emotions and qualities gathered at one spot. When BOREDOM yawned for the third time, INSANITY offered: "How about a game of hide-and-seek?!"

INTRIGUE got curious right away- "Hide-and seek? What is that?"

So INSANITY explained that it is a game, in which one of them, itself for example, has to close their eyes and count to a million, while everyone else hides; the one who will be found last, closes their eyes and counts in the next game, and so on.

ENTHUSIASM started dancing with EUPHORIA, and JOY was so happy that it convinced DOUBT, and only APATHY, who was never interested in anything, refused to participate in the game.

TRUTH decided not to hide, because in the end it was always found anyway, PRIDE said that this was an idiotic game (it had no interest in nothing but itself), COWARDICE really didn't want to take any sort of risk.

One, two, three- INSANITY began counting.

LAZINESS hid first- it hid behind the closest rock, FAITH rose and hid in heaven, and ENVY hid in the shade of TRIUMPH, who all by itself climbed to the top of the tallest tree.

NOBLENESS couldn't find a good spot for a very long time, because every spot it found was perfect for its friends:

A crystal clear lake- for BEAUTY,

A cleft of a tree- its for FEAR,

A butterfly's wing- for VOLUPTUOUSNESS,

A light breath of wing- it so definetely for FREEDOM!

Finally, it hid in a sun ray.

EGOISM, oppositely, found a place only for itself.

LYING hid at the bottom of the ocean (actually, it hid in the rainbow), and PASSION and WILL stayed in the throat of a volcano. FORGETFULNESS... I don't even remember where it hid, but that isn't important.

When INSANITY counted up to 999999, LOVE was still looking for a place to hide, but everything was occupied. Suddenly, it saw a magnificent pink plant, and decided to hide in it's flowers.

"Million", counted INSANITY, and started searching. Obviously, LAZINESS was found first. Then it heard FAITH arguing with god, and PASSION and WILL were noticed by the shivering of the volcano. Afterwars, INSANITY found ENVY, and guessed where TRIUMPH hid.

EGOISM didn't even need to be found, because the place it was hiding in turned out to be a bees' nest, and the bees decided to shoo off the unwanted guest.

In the searching process, INSANITY wanted to get a drink of water, went to the lake, and saw BEAUTY. DOUBT was sitting by the fence, deciding what side it should hide on.

So, everyone was found:

TALENT- in fresh and green grass;

SORROW- in a dark cave;

LYING- in the rainbow (actually, it hid at the bottom of the ocean).

Only LOVE was nowhere to be seen.

INSANITY looked behind every tree, in every single stream, on the top of every mountain, and finally, it decided to look in the beautiful pink plant, and when it was searching through the branches, it heard a scream.

The thorns of the rose plant hurt LOVE's eyes.

INSANITY didn't know what to do, it started apologizing, it cried, pleaded, begged for forgiveness, and to pay off its fault, promised LOVE to be its guide.

And since the time they first played hide-and-seek, LOVE is blind, and INSANITY is its guide...

Песня Принцессы (Princess Song)

This is adorable...

It is a song of a princess from a Russian story.

I recently got rejected this part from a play... Sad.

Oh well, listen to the beautiful song!!!!

It is the princess singing about how the king, her father (I got that part instead), doesn't let her be with the one she loves, and the man is singing about that too... So cute!!!!

Here is the translation:

Princess: A bird is suffering in her cage;

She is unfamiliar to flight.

I am too, just like a bird,

In the castle, behind a lock.

The Dude: The sun will come up behind the forest, not for me though.

Without my dear Princess, I cannot survive a day...

Princess: Oh what is this, what happened?

What just happened to me?...

In my own castle,

I lost all calm...

So cute!!! I love Russian love songs <3

25 Floor...

My favorite song...

Here is the translation:

Hello to you, my Rome #3,

My lonely piligrim,

Came back to the city of his chilhood,

In search of fire.

On the crossing of all times,

Winged by the july wind.

With this summer's new rain, meet me,

Meet me...

The one who passed the 7 seas,

That one will have enough power,

To fly with the wind like an unwritten letter.

The sun is pouring lemon juice,

And all of this sugar sand is melting,

And this warm evening is so clear, weightless...

My love lives on the 25 floor...

Your soul calls me, and I am already learning to fly.

My love lives on the 25 floor...

And my soul is already flying to yours.

Bridges and canals are awake,

And midnight flowers will fill each word with magical scents.

Somewhere in the golden lights of the passing car,

The boulevard is flying by,

And barely, barely touching the sleepy clouds...

You believe birds and poems,

And stars drip down your cheeks,

And the fire reflects in the puddles...

The whole city smells like gasoline,

And, like the mint snow on your lips,

These days and the fairytale of love will melt.

My love lives on the 25 floor...

You soul calls me, and I am already learning to fly.

My love lives on the 25 floor...

And my soul is flying to yours.

Ballerina on a Boat

A piece of happiness :)))

-What's in your hands?
- Happiness.
-Why is it so small?
-It is only mine. But look- its so bright and beautiful!
-Yes... Amazing!
-Do you want a piece?
-Can I?
-Give me your hand, I'll share!
-Oh, it's so warm!
-You like it?
-So much... Thank you!
-Don't say thank you to friends.
-Why?
-They understand without words. By eyes.
-And other people?
-Others say thank you to other others. Time will pass, and you'll understand.
-You know, I feel much better now that happiness is in my hands.
-That always happens.
-What if I share it?
-That will add some to yours!
-Why?
-I don't know myself. After that it just becomes more warm!
-Can you burn your hands?
-Hands get burnt on jealousy. It is impossible to burn them on happiness!
-You know, I know who I will share this miracle with.
-I am happy for you.
-So...
-Yes, see you later. Share it, so many people need it so much!

Happiness Formula

Even though I believe love, happiness, and friendship cannot be defined, British scientisits partially proved me wrong, at least with happines. So here it is: The Happiness Formula!

R+(5*Е)+(3*Н)=Happiness

"R" stands for personal characterisitic- your reaction to the surrounding reality: how you see the world, how you react to stress, how you adapt to changing situations.
"E" is the person themself, their physical and mental appearance, their relationship and interactions with other people.
"H" is the person's personality traits, like sense of humor, kindness, or cruelty.

As you see a person reaches happiness when there is some sort of balance in different sides of their personality.

If there is something "extra", like if you are too mean, or cannot communicate with your family- you have a lower chance of being happy. So learn this formula by heart, and move on to better life!!!
