How 2014 made me feel!

Reflecting on what might have linked the actions, times and places during 2014.
How about a quick overview on how I spent 2014? I will make it quick, I promise (not).
January: So the year just kicked off! On January 24th (or 21st? I don't quite remember jeez), I had the opening of my first SOLO exhibition in Wyoming! I cannot describe how nervous, happy, excited and thankful I was. I was so blessed to have amazing souls orbiting around me (shout out to the babes Ghada and Fatma for helping me hang my photos). The amount of support and appreciation I was given that night was surreal. So Thanks to whoever came to say hi or to show love and support. Much appreciated! (I have a video coming up soon summing up all of these gems).

February: When I say February, I say NYC and I also say Arctic Monkeys- AM. I also say "hanging out with M.G while freezing my booty off despite wearing my entire closet?". That was NY for me, baby.

March: hmm spring fucking break? Hell yeah!Greetings to my wonderful darling Valerie Vasquez for making my break billion times better.

April: Oh well! Shit got real in April! Excuse my poor choice of words but April was my favorite. I got the chance to go to Austin, Texas, to attend Coachella Valley music festival and meet Andrew, my dustchella partner that I had so much fun with.

May: was definitely the saying good-byes kind of month. Hey there John, I miss/love you.

June & July: uhmm, surviving Tunisia's unbearable heat? I usually don't do much during summer besides the much wanted routine : eat-sleep-internet. And talking about internet, I have been extensively investing my time in looking up new music/artists/producers/etc...It goes without saying that music is my fuel (so cheesy I know, but it's damn true). Kygo was among my favorite summer tropical House discoveries. His musical touch (a.k.a remix) on whichever song you name is spectacular, whimsical and simply ethereal..dreamy. I can go on and on.

August: Just after Ramadhan, there was...EPHEMERE Festival. It was an overall good experience. It's been a pleasure working with them.

September: Besides fangirling over more producers (Flume, Diplo, What So Not, HeRobust, VACANT, Stint, Lockjaw, etc..) on Soundcloud and going back to Uni, I wish September was a bit more of an autumn month than just an annoying replica of July with constant 30 C.

October: Nach Berlin! I met a lot of nice and precious souls. Therefore, I am forever grateful to whoever made this trip happen.

November & December: Going back to the usual college life. However, it was also bonding time with some of the people that I've always knew as bare acquaintances but now they are among the people that I appreciate the most. I love you Heebz!
Ending this humongous blog post with a 4mn piece from heaven that made my last hours of 2014. Is this remix even real?



I hope you enjoyed both of the tracks and the tons of pictures I just published. I am not bragging about the places I visited nor the amount of fun I had.I am simply sharing memorable moments with you because I am certain that some of you might relate to how blissful it is to be surrounded by loving human beings, and how grateful we should be that our paths have crossed theirs. My life turns around people, around what makes them tick and what they appreciate the most about their daily hustle. I truly value their friendship and honest contribution to my life. Much love!

Have a fresh new beginning to you all!

September blues

Happy Fall to all of my dear readers!
It goes without saying that autumn is my favorite season among all. I know that it's already October but September is the perfect description of the fall season.
Enough rambling about fall, leaves, vanilla Chai and comfy sweaters...I wanted to include some of my photographs in this post since I have not done so in ages. These were taken pretty much everywhere; Tunis, NYC, Austin TX, Laramie WY. I do admit that procrastination killed me and none of the photo-shoots I planned were done. Besides, I had a terrible past few weeks; swapping from an extreme euphoric state of mind to a bitter melancholic one within hours. It's called bipolar disorder. I may be diagnosed with that actually. I have no doubt that I am a very mentally unstable person so that does not surprise me.
Anyway, I hope I will get back to this blog with a new post, fresh photos and favorites to share.

Oh, I forgot to mention that this Chloe Spring Summer 2015 collection is simply the incarnation of PERFECTION, isn't?

" Never let anything hold you back"

Looking back at 2013 in pictures...

VACANT - Broke 

This year, I worked on changing something really important in me, which ties me to my surroundings : I love human beings, and that's my worst habit and biggest fear in life. I have learnt throughout this year that one shouldn't simply make home out of people, because it will make you wrecked, homesick and lost. After all, and at the end of each day, all you have is yourself and who you are.
So that was a tough lesson to learn after many trials, glorious ups and painful downs.
Other than that, grateful to meet all of these wonderful human beings above (and not only above); people who have generally made a huge impact on me this year. They are few but they will never be forgotten, no matter how far we are apart. We go through all sorts of complications, problems, weird states of arousals and  emotional conflicts just to feel...alive.
So cheers for being alive, humans ! We don't get this chance twice. As someone very dear to me once said :" Always expect the worse, and hope for the best. Never let anything hold you back ". 


Take care folks.
