  4. Not really! I mean I sure use amazon to buy books but only rear or expensive ones, because the shipping here takes up to 2 weeks , and i am really impatient!!! I prefer to go to a local bookstore and feel the books! But I think i will try what you said! I really want to see if audiobooks are nice to. Also I am planning to buy an e reader so amazon will be my top priority bookshop !!!!!

      Ohhhh I see. I am really sorry! I truly misunderstood you! Yes indeed these books arent read by anyone nowadays. As I am concerned I havent read the yet because I am 19 and not so deeply into "philosophy". But I want to more than anything! Maybe its just me..

       

      I think I ve made a lot of mistakes I hope I was clear :P

I am going to bother you again, to tell me EVERYTHING about what museums and sightseeing I should visit!!! If you dont mind! :)

    Hello! :D

    Thank you Jessi!!!
  13. GYROOOOOOOSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GREECE! Once you eat it you ll never stop!!! (And of course with beer)!!!
  14. In my opinion yes it is! Because Goethe ''hides'' a lot of meanings that are difficult to understand unless you are an expert in this field! For example some names and what they say are real historical persons and what they say might confuse you! Same happens with other '' characters'' he uses! If you dont know their true meaning or why he uses them you wont understand much! And finally his writting is so thrifty and compact (I dont know if I can use here those words I hope you understand what I am saying) that you want ''catch'' every meaning!! BUT! I am sure there are lots of books on every languge that have the original text and the interpratation below! If you choose a book like that you will deaply understand Faust and you ll also enjoy it more! Try searching for titles like : ''Goethe's Faust'' These books have the commentaries on every part you cant really understand! If you are thinking that it might be boring; well it wont trust me! You will be threalled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Sorry for the bad English in advance )
  15. Nollaig thank you fo the suggestions! You are the first to comment so I ll definetlly try them!! I know I didn t tell anything more specific, bot I am really open to new ideas! I just bought 5 books so I ll read them the next month! :/ And if there are translations on my language I am really weak at English literature yet! I ll let you know about my opinion as soon as I finish them!!! (Also nice blog!!!!really...tidy! )

    Hello! :D

    I agree that Athena is a really nice name! But I ll have to disagree with you! I think Gaia is better!! Gaia comes from the ancient greek word <<Γαῖα>> which you may heard that it translates to Earth, but it really symbolises every material side of the whole world! I think your name is more unique and amazing than the godess Athena! Also according the myth of Isiodos: Gaia with Chaos, with the help of Love (The god <<Erotas>>), gave birth to Sky (The god <<Uranos>>). Then Gaia united with Uranos created the Giands(<<Gigades>>), the Titans, the Ocean and enerything else in this world. I hope I ve made you a little proud about your name!
  23. Yesterday I watched the intouchables one more time!!
  24. Jazz ballads on Jazzradio.com while I am studying for my exams tomorrow and drinking some coffee of course
