just a note…

… to say i am absolutely happy and in a fabulous mood – i often enough write, when i am feeling sad and blue, so this is a tribute to being happsy, flippy and bright-eyed – i do feel like dancing and that i shall do

aula am wilhelmsplatz

the chairs are more comfortable, but everything else is unchanged – the same mighty kings look down upon the audience and the same formidable ceiling attracts attention – oh, the people have changed – i was there during my first week of university and look how i have changed during those seven years…

today was the formal graduation ceremony of all graduates of 2008 of my faculty – social sciences – at the georg-august-university of göttingen – it was impressing and it felt great to have so many people acknowledge one’s achievement – german politician rita süssmuth held a speech – parents, grandparents and proud friends took millions of photographs and my diploma was given to me with a handshake and a smile, not just via mail or handed out randomly at the registrar’s office

even though it’s been ages since i actually finished my magister studies, it now feels completely real and i am ready to start something new full time – my p.hd. plans are ripening and i am looking forward to be getting back to the libraries and study halls and – most of all – the books of lore and learning

an apple a day…

… keeps the doctor away – but who’d want that? i keep to my bananas – bananas are good! – let’s have a banana for breakfast

dream diary, part VI

once more i had strange dreams hunting my sleep – as always, príncipe azul has been frightfully absent – but príncipe flagrante, who has proven himself to be a desperate fool in life, has been very decent dream material once again – seriously, who wouldn’t like to dream of cuddling classes with any príncipe at all, no matter, how stupid they be at any time in real life?

yes, cuddling class it was – something i highly recommend to be taught at school and uni and about everywhere else – cuddling is about the nicest thing in the world, as kittens already know and we should learn thoroughly throughout all our lives – and somehow cuddling with flagrante in my dreams was much better than any cuddle could be in real life – that might be sad, but it was very nice while i was dreaming about it, so i really don’t care all that much, if that makes me a pathetic girlie-girl

cool – tool – fool

this is a music review – i have absolutely no idea, how i came to find this song on youtube one day – neither, to be honest what it is about, even when i read the english lyrics – the only explanation can be the excessive use of drugs or maybe teenage fantasies of growing up – orange, slide, sponge, pride, spider, grunge, hamster, revenge, lobster, shotgun and the obvious “ride on shooting star” are the fantastically distorted english words within the japanese lyrics – and it really doesn’t matter what it all means, the song is fantastic – it makes me want to sing along – and the beatles reference at 2:04 is just too good – the video? haha, teddy bears and funky glasses? it’s so easy to make me laugh

cure for all ills

once again i find myself being rather angry and confused by life – i’ve been tempted to believe things could go perfectly, if not according to plan, then at least in the right direction – but life’s plans have something different in store for me, as it seems – confusion upon confusion and a complicated mess – suddenly, all i want to do is curl up in bed and sleep for a week and find everything is back to normal, when i wake up – as this is not possible, i do, what i always do, when feeling something is wrong, i consult my favourite doctor

kitten love goes sporty kitty

oh, the elegance of that

run, run, run along – click on the panther to know, where he’s running tothat’s my way to party!

saturday night

oh, i feel eleven and flashy and vibrant with life – no matter how stupid we look, we are dancing away the nights, saturday or whenever

new windows – new style

confusion upon confusion with the handymen, but finally i’ve got new windows in my apartment – since i had to move most of my furniture anyways, i decided it was time to redecorate – here’s how it looks like now

haha, just kidding – real photos are going to be up in a jiffy

vampire-Boy beats time lord

The race for the Most Attractive Man title turned up two frontrunners as dishy Doctor Who David Tennant and rising star Robert Pattinson went neck and neck all the way. As the male pole closed over 395,000 votes had been cast, with the Twilight star emerging as the winner with 39 per cent – a lead of only one per cent.

so it shall be – i am not happy, but i sincerely congratulate all fans of vampire-boy and admit defeat – oh,

no, i will never admit defeat, i’ve got this:

doctor, doctor give me the news – i’ve got a bad case of lovin’ you – no pill’s gonna cure my ill – i’ve got a bad case of lovin’ you

hello, my name is …

… and i will be your personal shopper today – ah, i see, you want casual, but smart clothes for a weekend in the country – if you would follow me please and try on those pants, while i will be going to look for a couple of nice shirts to go with those – oh, very nice indeed! – splendid, i like those on you, now try this pullover, i think it brings out the colour in your eyes very nicely – yes, that’s it – wonderful! – you’re next, you’ll want to try these pants with a polo shirt – that’s nice and smart, but adds a little sportive weekendy feeling …

i love shopping and being a personal shopper is a dream, even if i am only doing it as costume assistant for a play and not to earn money – i seem to have a pretty good sense of the things other people can wear and enjoy picking stuff out and making them try it on – it’s almost as good as buying something for myself to find the perfect outfit for somebody else and seeing how wonderful they look wearing it

manic monday

as the day draws to it’s close and i draw balance of it’s adventures, i come to the conclusion it really has been a manic monday – i should have gotten up early to get some work done, but really just wanted to stay in bed, especially since i forgot to change the timer on my heater from weekend to monday morning and my apartment was frightfully cold – i then ventured to find myself some work and bitterly failed not once, but twice – fie! shame! tut! – lunch was great and the blueberry muffin i had for desert turned out to be the highlight of my day – the afternoon went by in a flash and then i had to go to rehearsal and present costumes, i don’t have yet – how am i supposed to get summer clothes in winter just like that? – i can’t snap my fingers and they’re there, even i have to order online or go browsing in shops – well, let’s hope tuesday is a little better and until then cherish the 80’s and one of my favourite songs ever

but i am the chosen one

i can’t wait – july come here, quickly, please – meanwhile let me read the book again

who’s dated who?

in interesting question, not only concerning actual doctor who, but also all those other stars and starlets out in the wide universe of stardom – who wouldn’t want to know that carrie dated j.f.k. jr, vampire-boy went out with someone called annelyse (might she be a supermodel or a brasilian foorball star? who knows?) or tennant who seems strangely attracted to fellow who-actresses? – who’s dated who is a must-see homepage for all of us, who’re more than slightly interested in our heart-throbs and crushes, who want to know all about who might be in love with whom, and who just cannot get enough of internet-stalking

last skating news

too showy, too flashy – fun, but that’s not what skating is all about – just too much – the romance is missing – he’s a show-off and skating is about grace and beauty and not about bragging what you can do, even if you can do it easily – ladies and gentlemen, as the last of my skating posts reaches it’s end, i present to you evgeni plushenko with an incredible performance – don’t laugh too hard ;)

shocking skating news

tennant trivia:

David Tennant hates ice-skating. For his ITV 1 drama Secret Smile he was required to skate, and kept falling over and bruising himself.

this is somewhat shocking, as is the film itself – david as a psychopath guy who drives a girl into suicide – ahhh, he’s still oddly attractive, but a lot more scary than i have ever seen him before, even more creepy than barty crouch jr. in harry potter and that’s saying something! – but here’s some photos of him skating nevertheless

and tomorrow – for my final skating post, you’ll get something to laugh…

one more time, please

girls, please vote for mr tennant – we all know he deserves the title much more than vampire-boy – don’t let all those over-excited teenage girls get in the way – their taste has not quite developed yet – hello! sexy men – and here’s something to show you, why ten really is the sexiest man alive

girl skates

kathi witt – o, how i loved  her, when i was just a little girl – her ability to fly over the ice, pirouette like crazy and the eccentric costumes, she always wore set her apart from all the other girl skaters

o, and a little update on my skating skills – i am getting the hang of going backwards – it’s fun – more news tomorrow, along with a really shocking little peace of skating info

must see

Gnomeo and Juliet (2010)

William Shakespeare’s tragic romance gets a garden-gnome twist in this computer-animated musical featuring the voices of James McAvoy and Emily Blunt, with music by Elton John.

home, sweet new home

the apartment i wanted to buy is gone – rented out and not for sale anymore – i am very unhappy, but this can cheer me up anytime – just wish, he’d look at me that way
