ONIRAMA PICTURES

ONIRAMA.

The band I chose is Onirama. It is a Greek pop, rock, rock band from Thessaloniki. I chose these band because I like their music for many reasons. Some of these reasons are that I can understand what they are saying when they are singing, I understand the lyrics, and the meaning of their songs.

Onirama was founded in October 2000 from the idea of Thodoris Marantinis and Dionisis Prantzis after they met in military. Giorgos and Dimitris Kokonidis were also founding members, and a couple of months later Kostas Karakatsanis joined. The band originally started as a hobby, with the name "Mixing Up The Medicine" inspired by lyrics from a Bob Dylan song. The name was a reflected on the kind of music they played.
Their first live performance was at club Mesogios in Thessaloniki. Their concert and party-like live performances, quickly caught the attention of the fans and people around Thessaloniki, causing the band to take themselves more seriously.
In 2003 Christos Tresintsis joined Onirama and they began a series of appearances at clubs around Thessaloniki including Mylos, Shark, Rodon Club in Athens and several festivals. In the middle of 2003, the band renamed themselves Onirama as their band became more of a reality. The name comes from a Greek phrase "Onira Mas" meaning "Our Dreams".
In October 2004, Onirama began appearing at Malt & Jazz with their signature live performances. Around the same time, the band began writing their first album and searching for a record label.
In 2005 they signed with Lyra Records and released their first album Diskolos Kairos Gia Prinkipes (A tough time for princes) on 7 December 2005. The lead single "O Horos (Klise Ta Matia)" (The Dance, Close your eyes) became a radio hit and gained Onirama popularity, while the second single Mia Mera Tha 'Rtheis" (One day you will come) also became a radio hit.
In the summer of 2006, they made appearances all over Chalkidiki, while they appeared in Athens all winter long with Antonis Remos (a very famous Greek singer). In January 2006, Onirama decided to change things up, and participated in a musical performance directed by Rigos Kostantinos at Theater Dasous in Thessaloniki. In the performance, the members of the band each started making their own thing reflecting the audients.
In March 2006, Onirama was nominated for "Best pop band" at the 5th Arion Music Awards, while they also appeared with Ble, Adrianna Babali, Vasilis Papakonstandinou, and Michalis Hatzigiannis.
On February 21, 2007, Onirama cooperated with Antonis Remos for the 4th MAD Secret Concert. At the concert, they sang many English hits, and fans nicknamed the cooperation "OniRemos". In summer 2007, Onirama and Antonis Remos toured Greece together.
These is the story and the beginning of my favorite band Onirama.

"It is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain, but, once conceived, it haunted me day and night. Object there was none. Passion there was none. I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye! Yes, it was this! One of his eyes resembled that of a vulture -- a pale blue eye with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me my blood ran cold, and so by degrees, very gradually, I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye for ever."

Compare and Contrast.



Today I am going to compare and contrast two of my books characters. My book is called Report to the principle’s office, by Jerry Spinelli. The two characters I chose to compare and contrast are Eddie Mot and Sunny Wylor. I chose this two characters because they are my favorite characters fro my book. I also chose these two characters, because they are funny, the book talks about them a lot, for me they are the main character’s of the book. I like them also because they both have a problem, and it is vary interesting reading about them, trying to solve their problem.

Eddie Mot was a young boy, who transferred from 5th grade, to middle school in 6th grade. On his first day of school he did not want to get into the bus, he wanted to go back home to his mother, because he new that he was going to be bullied by 8th graders. When he entered the bus he was kind to a kid and asked him if he could sit next to him. But instead the kids through Eddie at the back, back sit of the bus. Then when he went to school Eddie was bullied by 8th graders, specially the knuckleheads, which at lunch time every day they were stilling his lunch meal. Eddie did not have any friends, so he wanted to go back to primary school and ware again his Duffy duck pin, and get nice stickers on his spelling tests. But when Eddie met Pickles, and they became friends, Pickles helped him, so he was never again bullied by the knuckleheads, because one day Pickles had made Eddies lunch descasting, he had put grouse food in it and from then on the knuckleheads never took his lunch again. The similarities that they both want to leave the school. Eddie wants to go back to primary school, and sunny wants to go back to Hillarie’s school. The differences between them are that Eddie wants to make friends, and he is very polite, for example at the school bus on the first day of school, but Sunny does not care, for example just trying to get kicked out of school every day by not washing he hair, by smelling and by doing horrible things to the school.

Sunny Weylor was a student in another school, until one day she was transferred to Plumstead School because at the street that she was living they had to go to the Plumstead School. At the opposite side of her house her best friend Hillary was living, which they also used to go at the same school until they went to middle school. From that time sunny and her best friend Hillary were very mad, so they said that they would not wash their hair again until they were back to the same school, Sunny even said that she would not change her socks too, and one day at school she took of her shoo and everyone went far away from her because her socks were really smelly. When Sunny was at her old school with Hillary she acted like a normal kid. She would wash her hair and change hair socks and T-shirts every day. Now she is very unhappy because she is transferred to another school. The only thing that could make her wash her hair again and be happy is to be at the same school as Hillary. The differences that Sunny has with Eddie is that at the school they are now Eddie is being polite, Sunny is not for example not washing her hair and sticking every day. Sunnis best friend is Hillary Eddies best friend is Pickles. A similarity they have is that they both want to leave the Plumstead School.

At the end Sunny was told by the principle that if she would not start behaving correctly and doing good things she would not have a chance getting kicked out of the school. So she had to do it, she was also assigned be the principle Mr. Brimlow to find a mascot for the school. Sunny became friends with Eddie and helped one another, for example when Humphrey the mascot was lost both of them were trying rally hard to find him. Sunny did not leave the school at the end, and Eddie made friends and was never bullied again by the knuckleheads any more.

What is a lighthouse?


A lighthouse is a small building that at night a big light terns on.
There is a man standing there and he directs the big ships that travel
At night to not come close to the lighthouse because maybe there are.
Some people there. He also helps then to not bump into each other.These is what a light house is.

What my seting would be?



My setting would be at a dark forest with dangerous wolves.

There would be dangerous trees and monsters that the only

Thing they want is blood. They only eat people, specially

When their blood tastes really good. They prefer young

People that there blood is still fresh. They have really big Zombies

That the only thing they want is to eat the people’s head.

How will blogging affect/change your writing? Why?

Blogging will be easier because it saves paper and for a person who knows how to work a computer well it is easier for him too. Now a days almost everyone is using a computer for their homework, especially at the universities. I think that the blogger account that Ms. Lapalme told us to create was a great idea. I think that it is much easier for me to do my homework and I believe that other classmates would agree. Blogging will affect our writing because in English class we do our homework by hand and we are used to it. I believe that if we continue with the blogger account and we do our homework there we will get used to it and it will start getting easier for us. Maybe now I think that doing our homework in hand writing is better because I am used to it but if we continue with blogger it would be better because it will help us also a lot at our university.
