Well, well, doing high-cost SMS lottery pays off in the end...
I just won two tickets to the New Moon pre-premiere tomorrow, and I am thrilled to say the least.
Anything involving vampires is great, but add cheesy teenage romance, halfnaked werewulf boys, a little sparkling here and there - I'm totallly in!

giddy
busySo, I *finally* handed in the darn outline for a paper I have to write for one of my courses, one piont less on the do-it-immediately-list.
And I have a plan for the next week. I really like plans, and lists. I have many many lists. Some of which I plan to share here sometime... as soon as I am not so incredibly swamped with work anymore.
But its late, I did enough for today - I think I'll cuddle into bed with a book now.
Have a great start of the week tomorrow!

tired
Lately, my life seems really overwhelming. I feel like I have a "to-do" list, a "would-be-nice-if-it-would-get-done-even
I get lost among school, household, sewing, cooking (healthy if possible), keeping up with friends and family, sport, planning for christmas, studying for exams... And sometimes I wonder where I should take the energy from to get all the stuff done.
And the fact that I am really unsure if who I really am, what I want in life and where my priorities lie does not help much. But that's another story...
Then, last Wednesday I went to the DIO concert, even though my head told me that I had a million more important things to do. And it was the right decision because even though I was rather tired the next morning, the experience to see a Japanese band on stage again was... an emotional rollercoaster, really.
I have never seen DIO in my Summer in Japan (did they even exist back then?), but many other visual bands. And just like at the moment, in that summer I was trying to juggle various different things, while feeling kind of lost and alone too.
It took DIO about 5 seconds of the first song to get me back to that summer. All the feelings were back, it was like emotional time travel. I was almost in tears most of the time!
And I that's when I realized how I survived the summer of 2005: I was listening to a lot of music. I used to get so much strength from music, and somehow I must have forgotten lately.
So I really hope to get the chaotic situation inside me under control, one step at a time. And with an awesome playlist in the background...
The top ten would be:
1. Jack Hardy - Fallen
2. Gazette - Cassis
3. Wolfsheim - die Flut
4. Dir en grey - THE FINAL
5. HIM - In Joy and Sorrow
6. Tanzwut - Meer
7. Kagrra, - Haru urara
8. X Japan - Say anything
9. Children of Bodom - Needled 24/7
10. Nightmare - Star[K]night
And any other song by all those Bands really. And Muse. Coldplay. Amaterase. Feindflug. Flyleaf. Gackt. Janne da Arc. Kent. Sonata arctica. And others.
Have a wonderful sunday!

I seem to have a thing for guys with the same hair as me.
Some time ago it was Mika, who I still fancy (he is so colourful and bubbly and glittery!), and now it just happened again:
Thats the lead singer of dune (if you didn't know) and I just saw the video on MTV. The music is cool and all, but look at his curls... angelic. I just want to run my fingers through that hair all day. (Of course, it will be satiny and shiny with no knots at all, unlike my own hair)
But after a second glance - am I the only one who thinks this guy looks a little like Rei? You all know who I mean, THE Rei, "visual kei" Rei?
If so, I don't like him so much anymore, thankyouverymuch. Even with the curls.

HRMPF. That says it all really.
Life is generally good, no worries, but so many little things just piss me off right now...
Starting with the fact that I can't sleep. yet again.
We have laundry tomorrow and Thursday. Which technically means that I can wash my clothes and stuff from 18:00 today until 18:00 thurstday, not before 7:00 in the morning and not after 21:30. For us, as we are both working and usually leave before 7:00, that always means stress and a few half dried items of clothing lying around in the flat. But this time it's even better: the power is off the whole weekend - only for the washing machine. when am I supposed to do my laundry? I can't take a day off every time! Geez, just let me wash! This system sucks. Me no likey.
I ate way too much today. I think my lifestyle burns a total of 17 calories a day, and every brownie I eat travels instantly to my thighs and belly. I love baking, and eating what I made, so that doesn't help... and I ate a lot of brownies today. I dread the scale tomorrow.
I started to go to step aerobics last week. I like it (as much as you can like exhausting sports... yeah), but of course it makes me sweat. And it looks like I am kind of allergic to my own sweat. Lovelly. As if I didn't have enough reasons to skip sports.
Maybe TMI but... my sex drive is at an all time low. If anyone knows how to resurrect it, tell me.
I really want to sleep. I am tired, but strangely tense at the same time. Just can't seem to relax.
Well, I'm gonna get myself a nice cup of tea and the off to bed (again).
Have a good start of the week, enjoy the warm weather if you can!
Hello my lovlies
I hope you enjoy summer as much as I do! Between soaking up sun (in small doses.. I don't want to get burnt!), finishing projects for school, working, nesting, cooking, sports, family visits, I almost never use the computer. I can't believe that my mails go unchecked for several days! (not that I would recieve anything important at the moment... but still!)
and after a month of silence, I have a finally finished project to show: my self-knitted cardigan!
It took ages to do, but now I can finally wear it, all in time for autumn ^^
I have a few other autumn projects up my sleeve, but theey are still in the planning and sketching stage.
and, of course, I have been baking. Summer doesn't seem like the perfect time for cookies, they always look christmas-y somehow, but I found the perfect solution on some blog (that Iwould like to credit, but can't remember, argh!): Watermelon cookies.
they don't taste like watermelons, I just used regular Mailänderli-dough, the magic is all in the food coloring and assembly. I used about half the dough for the inner red part, then one fourth for the white and green. Form the red to a cylinder, roll out white, put it around the red cylinder, roll out the green, put it around the white part, freeze well, cut with a sharp knife, use chocolate chips as seeds, bake and voila:
these sure were a big hit on the 1st of august party!
enjoy the weekend!

- grab a nice book and a blanket
- grab B.
- and go there:

I'm at work, trying to get my power point presentation for Friday to look like I actually work a lot. Now while the slides are in English, I will give the speech in German. And I just almost wrote the wore "oftheit" in my notes. As in wie oft etwas vorkommt.
I soooo need summer vacation.
what do you do to get your concentration /native language skills back?
And on a side note: why is there no "procastrinating" in the mood thingie? I mean it's not really an action, right?
