Ο Σεπτέμβρης φεύγει παρέα με το καλοκαίρι, αλλά οι καινούριες σειρές τώρα ξεκινούν. Από τα μέσα του μήνα έχουμε δει πολυάριθμες πρεμιέρες που έκαναν ιδιαίτερη εντύπωση στο ελληνικό κοινό, και έτσι σιγά σιγά μπήκαμε στη γνώριμη φθινοπωρινή διάθεση. Λίγο καιρό πριν...
A basic guide to Pop Culture
It is that one thing that is all around us, yet we don’t really understand what it is exactly or how it started. We are talking about ‘pop’, as in pop art or pop music. It is a movement which includes the arts, entertainment or style and has its roots in the mid-20th...
Τελικά χάνουμε τον εαυτό μας;
Πέρασαν πολλές μέρες μέχρι να αποφασίσω πως να προσεγγίσω το θέμα του εαυτού και της προσωπικής ταυτότητας, καθώς πραγματικά, σημαίνει κάτι διαφορετικό για τον καθένα μας. Εαυτός είναι η προσωπικότητα, η σεξουαλική ταυτότητα, η καλλιτεχνική έκφραση, οι συνήθειες και...

How many times did we sit down, made a nice long list of our tasks of the day and ended up not doing anything? It happens frequently, especially when we are not in the mood of studying, or cleaning up, or getting out of bed…It is the widely known state of...
Who’s on the naughty list?
As one of my favourite holidays approaches, I’ve started my preparations. The Christmas tree is decorated and shining, my kitchen smells like heaven (and an easy gain of 3kgs) and the city is chilly with a slight smell of burning wood. You see it in the streets, at...
A shift of perspective
Let’s face some facts. 2020 has been a highly strange year -I’d say terrible but let’s not be extreme-. A global pandemic that is still tormenting us, natural phenomena that caused chaos, etc. From my point of view, I remember myself in December 2019 looking forward...
Based on real life
Saturday summer mornings back at home with a big bowl of cereal on the couch. The TV is already on and our favourite cartoon channel is playing. It’s a classic image of how our generation spent the early mornings of our childhood. Tons of characters entertained us,...
Once upon our time
What is it about memory that just lures us into its realms and we don’t really want to go back to reality? Is it past experiences? Is it good times with friends and lovers who made our lives better? Is it perhaps passed greatness, better than our state right now at...
Τσάφ Ντόντο Τσάφ!
