Dreaming


I wish I could go somewhere
Where girls wear flowers in their hair
And boys have stars in their eyes
I wish I could find a place
Where sparks illuminate the sky
And it’s never really dark
A place where rivers never stops flowing
And the flowers never stop blooming.



I dream of a beach at sundown
With fire lights warming our veins
I dream of a million books to read
And a million songs to listen.
I wish I could warm my hands
With a nice cup of coffee
Hearing the soft noise of people talking
And closing my eyes without fear.
I wish I could sleep.
Sleep without dreaming
Of a life I’ll never live.
I dream with my eyes open
And everything around me changes.
I am trapped into a world that is not mine.
I tried to stop
But I always come back there.
Here, I dream of a better life
And it helps me get through mine.
So I dream.

"I Love You"

A poem I wrote for all my friends The most beautiful kind of love Is the one that comes from friendship Because friends will always be there for you No matter what; Meanwhile 'lover', as we call them Can at any moment leave you behind With a broken heart and an empty soul But your friends are the ones Who are going to pick up the pieces And make you feel whole again.

Why you should watch BBC's 'Call the Midwife'

Jennifer Kirby, Leonie Elliott, Helen George, Charlotte Ritchie - Credit: BBC/Neal Street Productions/Nicky Johnston I first started watching 'Call the Midwife' for study reasons. My research thesis for my MA at Sorbonne-Nouvelle was on Women's work in the 1940-50s in Britain and I found out about this show which covered perfectly what I was looking for. What I didn't know is that I would fell madly in love with it - and will still watch it years later.  'Call the Midwife' is BBC period drama series following a group of midwives working in East London, Poplar, in the 1950-60s. It was created by Heidi Thomas and is originally based on the memoirs of Jennifer Worth, a nurse working with the Community of St. John the Divine at their convent in the East End. As we follow the nurses caring for their community, we learn about the social and economic issues of the time that they are facing as well as the personal struggles of these families and the midwiv...

My Broadway Crush: Eden Espinosa

I wrote this to share the amazingness of Broadway actress Eden Espinosa, whom everyone should know about! Like a lot of people, I first knew Eden Espinosa through Wicked . Indeed, she played the green witch Elphaba on and off Broadway for several years. I actually noticed her really quickly because of a video that I saw of her and Megan Hilty (who played Glinda, the Good Witch) performing “Popular” and I immediately loved her. Eden has been involved with Wicked for several years. She was in the original production of Wicked as the Elphaba standby (played at that time by Idina Menzel who originated the role) in 2003. Then she reprised the lead in 2006. She also performed as the Wicked Witch of The West in San Francisco in 2005 and again in 2010 for the Wicked’s First National Tour. She was also asked to play the part for the opening production of Wicked in Los Angeles in 2007 and she stayed until the company closed in January 2009. Even if I really lo...
