Japan
I was at a hockey game last night. One of the players got a 2 minute penalty but didn’t accept it. So instead of leaving the ice he kept on arguing with the referee and seemed to be getting really angry so that another ref had to keep them apart. Just in case he wanted to start a fight (yes with the ref).
Why am I writing about this? Because when he was kicked off the ice for the rest of...
Addiction
I love Matthew Perry’s new show Mr Sunshine.
Uschis
Just wanted to let the world know that I love my friends. The past couple of months have shown me that I can trust and count on them completely. I don’t know what I would do without them. I tend to focus my attention on one or two people but this bunch of girls proves to me every day that a few days of low frequency and less talking doesn’t matter if you know the other person. Letting...
Routine!?
Trying to start blogging again. Maybe constant access to the Internet via my iPhone can develop my writing into a routine. Let’s see.

Again! It’s been more than two months sine I posted anything. I guess I failed again. Especially with getting more organized. My room looks like π#!@. I will try to find another use for his blog; hopefully I’ll make it ;) Starting tonight …

Get connected
Before I get to my daily list of chores, I have to mention that I love tumblr’s ask anything section. A couple of days ago I sent Lena a question and she answered today, which I thought was terrific. Although, I had found a way to change my design myself (at least a little bit) she gave me a new perspective that I hadn’t known about. So thanks for that. Additionally, seeing that she...

Just a short note:
O.V. said after I told him about our fun “little game” he’d think about it…
This will be so much fun, and verrrrrrry entertaining, for we are all verrrrrrrrry competetive!
Girl, this is not a game!!!
Short Message
Tomorrow I will write an article, get info for an internship, write an e-mail to Till, go to school, have a meeting with my research group, hopefully have dinner with my roommates and have another try at reaching Nadine. I will get you at some point ;) And if I have time left, I will write a blog post about what happened today and tomorrow. Puhh, This is getting tough.
I Don’t Like Mondays
Last night I wasn’t up to writing after 12 am, so I thought since I was able to get everything done that I had planned for Sunday, it was fine to go to sleep and write the blog first thing in the morning. So here I am.
As I said I did everything on my list yesterday, but additionally I changed sheets, learned some more about CSS and HTML and later went out to dinner with my lovely roommate, V....

My objective for today was to do my laundry (two loads), vacuum-clean my room, pay the bills for May and meet with my friends to have a cup of coffee. Here is how it worked out.
When I woke up I went through my routine of coffee, cereal and first check of e-mails, RSS feed and social networks. During breakfast I read a book about American Civilization just out of pleasure. Then I got to work, I...

Ok Big Sis, let’s make it a challenge then
Just to be clear before I start revising your truly great ten tips to a cleaner room, I don’t hate them! I enjoyed reading your post very much.
So let’s see. As you should already know, I’m pretty aware of these little tricks you’ve mentioned. It’s not like I don’t know where a clean room comes from. For example your second point ‘Rules’. Everything in my room has it’s own place. To name a few of...
No Changes
When I started this blog I promised myself to get more organized. My life seemed very structured to everyone else around me but every day when I saw the pile of clothes on the floor and papers on my desk – I couldn’t see the actual floor nor the desk – I felt disappointed in myself.
It’s been two years since this first post and nothing has changed. At all. I have phases where I try to keep up...

The L Word Season 3 Finale
Never in my life - it’s been 22 years - have I felt so disappointed about a TV show’s season finale. Maybe disappointed is not even strong enough. I’m angry, mad, upset. I’ve been watching this show for a week and all I can think of right now is: What a waste of time.
Normally I’m pleased by suprise endings but in this case I really wanted it to be how I had planned...

Chuck Bartowski
As I mentioned a couple of times before, I’m currently writing a blog on American TV-shows. This job is pretty amazing considering that I get money (even if it’s not a lot) for writing about things I love. I don’t feel as if watching these shows is really a job, since I would do so anyway.
So, my favorite show at the moment is Chuck. I wrote an article about it when I had only...

Barcelona
It’s been almost a week since I came home from Barcelona and I got asked like a hundred times “how was your trip?” I guess that’s how it goes; I mean I would do the same thing. Still, I never know what to say besides, great, good, fun and all the other adjectives to describe you had a fucking terrific time.
Here is my try of a recap, but be aware that this is coming out of my head right now and is...

Can't wait...
… for it to be next month! I have to buy the new The Fray album. It came out in February in the US, in Germany a little later, but I never came around buying it. Now I really want to have it, but I can’t because I am leaving for vacation on Monday, haven’t even booked a hotel yet, and am already short on the cash! So this will be the first thing to splurge on next month!

Supernatural...
… is the show I recently started watching and have to say: I’m impressed. It’s the first “scary” show since Buffy that actually keeps my interest for more than one episode. I watched Fringe the other day and was pretty disappointed. I mean, first of all, I hated The X-Files, maybe because I was a little kid but mainly because I thought it was dumb. Fringe is way too...

How much pain can a human body take?
Here’s another story about how I try to destroy my body: Tonight when I was getting ready to go out, I chose to use my flat iron at 180/360 degrees Celsius/Fahrenheit. well that’s the normal heat I use to get my hair straight. I had bought a new dress which would look great with perfectly straight hair. I was working my way through thousands of layers of hair when I somehow -...

Very Important Message
So I waxed my eyebrows today. I usually don’t, I’m pretty good with tweezing. But since I felt like there was a little more hair to take care of this time I thought it would be a lot easier, meaning faster and less hurtful, to wax them. It worked out fine - first. Then I didn’t realize that the stripy thing went far too deep into my hair and I ripped half of my brow out. Besides...

Alternate Endings
My room mate and I watched a movie tonight: The Butterfly Effect with Ashton Kutcher. I love this movie. I had seen it once before and while watching it I started remembering scenes from it. To be honest there are some sick things happening in this movie but life isn’t all nice and shiny, that’s how it is. What disturbed me was that the version we were watching had an alternative...

Flaws
Everyone has them and I am glad that this is so. Some are more obvious some are subtle. Some make the person cute, even beautiful, others are horrible and repellent. Most of these flaws are conveyed in one’s character.
And then there are your own flaws. I mean the ones you know you have. The last couple of weeks I got compliments concerning some of my flaws. I know these people were genuine...

New Blog
Is up! As I said before it’s in German. Enjoy anyway ;) As a side note I’ll have to add that I (only) wrote the last two articles. The rest, which you will find there, was written by several other authors. Now I am solely responsible for the maintenance: wish me luck :D
WHAT???
Me: I don't need beautiful ears...

I got them a couple of weeks ago! I think I totally forgot about my blog or else I would have talked about that before! You know what I’m talking about. If not your not supposed to know ;) All I can say it sucks big time and makes it hard to be happy… and I’ll have to change a couple of plans for the next 4-5 years!

Pick-up lines
I wanted to blog about this “topic” before but only had examples that every girl heard at least three times in her life, “Are you wearing contacts? Or are your eyes that blue/green/hazel?” Yeah, man! Good one, very creative. I’ve talked about this with a good friend of mine (who already occurred several times in this particular blog) and he told me about a book that...

Regret
I don’t regret a lot of things. I usually tell me “Remember when you made that choice you were convinced it was the right one in that moment!” I believe that people who regret “life choices” get depressions. Actually I know they do. One thing I regret, though, is nothing major but still it upsets me every now and then. When my friends and I were at Stansted, London to...
