feeling strange on the inside

admin — Sat, 27 Nov 2010 15:11:08 +0000

Time really does change you. Or life. Or maybe it’s one changing the other and we’re just caught in the balance. I’m not gonna lie, I’ve been laying in bed tonight really romanticizing past memories of cuddly winters in Colorado, and wishing the girl I’m missing now was here with me. I’m imagining a snowy silence outside my window, softening the harsh realities and noise from the world a little further out. The truth is though, I’m in Los Angeles, and outside my window is a swimming pool and blue skies… maybe ideal to some, but today it’s just not me.

I feel like writing more just about that. Going there in my imagination and feeling it. What is it about being in love that makes the past so sweet. It’s like we’re living these moments, and life just seems to smear on… but when we look back on it all, suddenly certain snapshots in time flare up with emotion and you remember them very sweetly. I wonder if the moment I’m living now will be a sweet one to remember. I wonder if this year will be a year that when I look back I will be happy with who I was and the things that I did with the time that I had. Did I write enough? Did I read more then I wrote? After all how can I create more then what I allow the world to teach me? I’m just a blank slate. Maybe that’s why I write more questions then answers.

I do know one thing, today I feel strange on the inside. I thought I was in love, but now I’m feeling like I miss being in love, and I miss being romantic, and taking time to really enjoy the things I love in life. I think during my time in Israel I really robbed myself of that. People moments, cozy moments, slow moments that can be spent carelessly, for they will probably be the moments most worth remembering. I eagerly await my next cuddly winter in Colorado.

Seeing it for the first time… again

Tonight on my cab ride home to Herzliya, I’m passin by neighborhoods and bridges, buildings, hills, and signs, and suddenly I begin to remember what if felt like to come back to this place. The heat in the air was foreign and exotic, the roads and symbols on signs unfamiliar, and inside you reel excited and a little proud because you know it was the brave thing to do: packing up a bag, picking up your feet, and going.

Today I’m returning to a young home in a now familiar place, from a day of work at a tv studio. I’ve driven these streets and I’ve worked some in these towns. I’ve made friends and I am finding success in doing what I love. The work is very exciting, challenging, and rewarding… and when i walk the streets i’m blessed with hugs, compliments, and the ability to make people smile simply by being me.

I’m very pleased to inform you- those dearest to me, that as of right now my public diary is active again. I will do my best to keep this blog up to date with what’s happening with me, both inside my heart and mind, and outside in my day to day life… bye for now

since I will be deactivating my facebook account in a couple weeks, I would like to invite you to add my alter ego Rambo Ponyboy. You may be thinking that was a joke, but it’s actually not. This profile has no pictures or personal info, but we can still stay in touch. Thanks mother, for the brilliant idea
okay guys, Rambo Ponyboy… do it! lovedanny

My life is changing rapidly now. I’m involved in something very exciting, very challenging, and very public. Something that feels like a dream come true, though by it’s nature it could be short-lived. And the most unfortunate part is that not only can I not tell you about what I’m going through (since it hasn’t been televised yet, and this is the internet), but also that on the 14th of June, or in about two weeks, I will have to shut down all my personal websites including myspace, facebook, and yes- even my beloved blog : (

Even now I want to tell you about things to come, but can’t. I promise though, they are very very very cool! I feel overwhelmed to be doing what I’m doing right now, and I hope you guys all follow along closely. The show has an extensive website where the contestents will have personal web-blogs, twitter, and lot’s of other cool things. This will be the best way to follow. Problem: it will all be in hebrew :( That’s okay I will do my best add english stuff often!!!

Moving on to things I can talk about: I found a great apartment with cool roomies. It’s relatively inexpensive, and it’s a penthouse on the beach in Yafo- with a ginormous roof-top deck to enjoy the ocean view/air. We haven’t signed yet but I will hopefully be moving in on the 1st of June. That’s news for now. Anyone have any good hookups on a cheap laptop or guitar pedals? hook a brotha up!!! :-O

I can’t actually tell you anything

So this should be an exciting blog with exciting news about an exciting tv show which I may or may not be a part of this summer (starts in 10 days). Unfortunately though, I’m forbidden to share information about where I’ve been, auditions I’ve participated in (and passed or not passed), and pretty much anything else regarding the show, because if I do I could be kicked of or even killed- really it’s in the contract.

Anyways, long story, homie is waiting for some potentially life-altering news in the next few days, and has high hopes and much anticipation for a summer of tv studios, huge audiences, live music, rehearsals, photo shoots, and experiancing some pretty cool things with some pretty cool people. Tomorrow I’m flying to Eilat again to perform with my dad, and next week to cyprus again for another cruise back.

I’m working on finding a place in tel-aviv right now. When I get back from Eilat I’m going to go look at a place in Yafo. It’s right on the sea and has a big rooftop for late night wine sipping to a cool ocean breeze. The people seem cool too. Please wish me much luck in the days to come, there is much at stake! Also I’m really hoping I can still participate in CVVC’s Israel tour in a couple weeks, but don’t know if I will be able to with the show. And I’m still praying that by some stoke of luck or God I will be able to come to colorado for Amos and Larael wedding. Love you guys and miss you so much! Blessings…

Iis been a busy week, and we’ve been having a lot of fun at our shows. My dad and I flew to Eilat for a show on Friday. I sang a lot at this show, and my dad and I had fun chemistry on stage, which was pretty refreshing. Tomorrow I will be going away for three days for the final auditions of the show which we have now conveniently coined ‘israeli idol’. There will be 100 finalist there, living together in close quarters and battling each day to secure their place in the show. There will be cameras everywhere, and this will be watched by all of Israel in about a month. I’m pretty nervous. They didn’t really tell us anything about how to prepare or what to expect, as they want it all to be a surprise. On the other hand I thing it’s going to be a really fun experience and I’m looking forward to making some new friends.

Each day some people will be sent home, and wednesday night those who remain will go home and thursday meet again for the final elimination, after which only 20 will remain, moving on to the big competition.

I’ve been looking at apartments in Tel Aviv, and if I make it through this week, I’m going to move into the city for the summer.

This weekend we’re going to Eilat again for a show, and taking Ben, Eliran, Batel, and Sylvia (my dad’s girlfriend from LA) who just arrived two days ago. .. oh btw it’s been great having her around the house, she cooks and cleans, and most importantly shows a lot of love and care to my brother and sister, who never really had a mother to care for them.

I think I’m babbling… if you haven’t already, call your mom and tell her you love her… that’s all for now… umm, okay bye!

hmmph

Independence day was 3 days ago. That night we played 5 shows for a combined audience of almost 20,000 people, arriving home around 5 AM. Strange how much fun I didn’t have. Strange how much my dad despises his work and the priceless experiences that come with it. An exciting night nonetheless. The following day we had another big show for two thousand or so, after which we got to sleep a few hours before catching a 7 AM flight to Cyprus. There we met Eyal Golan and his band and traveled to the docks where we boarded a cruise ship oh it’s way back to Israel. We performed then they performed then we slept a couple more hours before having to de-board at 7 AM in Ashdod. Tonight is the first night of a new venture. The Tavori brothers and papa will be performing every friday night at a club in TLV under my dad’s management. Should be a very interesting experience.

I’m deeply trouble by the condition of my siblings and dad. I’ve been having a really hard time getting along with them because their behaviour is usually repulsive, and really brings me down… especially my dad.
I miss seeing him sober when he was locked in that house for a month on tv. I feel bad for my 17 year old brother who’se only aspirations in life are sex and fame. And my sister who never had a mom to teach her how to be a woman.
I want to be a light. I want to stay positive and just love them… but it’s really hard.

“I made your heart glad
I did good unto your spirit
Now shine your light on us
That we will also know how to love
Send your light to guide my path
Make my face bright and rich in worth
Give a friend, and give me struggles
And between us may there be wisdom

Give us peace and give us calmness
We’re down here about to drown
Please come down to us
and make sense of all this chaos”

-Shimi Tavori
