Finally

Finally the sun came back to our realms! You know, i don't particularly mean to talk about the weather all the time, but in fact it is very important to my mood. Since it kept on snowing the last two weeks over here, i began to feel very frustrated. And now... sunshine all over and all the tiny little flowers blooming, that's just so lovely! Huch, great!

And as coincidence has it there's another reason for me to smile smile smile at the moment! I am now a grad student (yeah!). You may call me a Bachelor as well (yeah yeah!) - even though not officially. This means in fact more to me than just the sheet of paper or the title, but the great advantage is that i don't have to work so much (and early) any more because i'm receiving study assistance again (yahooooo!).

Moving

Sometimes you meet strange people. In fact there are many many weirdos out there. Don't get me wrong, i'm not saying that i'm supernormal. Haha, but....!

Yesterday in the evening there was someone ringing at our door. I didn't want to open at all since i wasn't expecting anyone Ò.ó But then we found that it was a girl who moved into the appartement on the second floor who wanted to borrow a screw driver. Ok, that's not so weird so far!

But today we heard from our lessor that the girl in question was made by her mother to leave the flat immediately since she (the girl) didn't have the permission from her to move out from home. And the point is that the girl was by then 25 years old! I mean what the heck is wrong with this lady that she can't let go her twentyfive-year-old child?! Goodness gracious me!

And so it comes that the flat on the secound floor is vacant still, so if you should be interested in a flat in a little alley of Innsbruck's old town... ;)

Oh and by the way: i would be glad, if we could have back our screw driver!

Dreaming of a white Easter?

I could never understand why some people like snow that much. Well, it might be ok in december or january, e.g. when you think of "white christmas" (although it hardly comes to this) or skiing holidays.

But as it keeps on snowing in late march, i'm growing more and more upset about this mad weather! I should be sitting outside, sipping cafe in the sun - instead i have to reactivate my warm sweaters and boots! I am not amused!

One of the best songs i ever heard, check it out, it's beautiful! ;)

elaborate lives

We all lead such elaborate lives
wild ambitions in our sights
How an affair of the heart survives
days apart and hurried nights
Seems quite unbelievable to me
I don't want to live like that
seems quite unbelievable to me
I don't want to love like that
I just want our time to be
slower and gentler, wiser,free

We all live in extravagant times
playing games we can't all win
Unintened emotional crimes
Take some out, take others in

I'm so tired of all were going through
I don't want to live like that
I'm so tired of all were going through
I don't want to love like that
I jsut want to be with you
Now and forever ,peaceful,true
This may not be the moment
to tell you face to face
But I could wait forever
for the perfect time and place

We all lead such elaborate lives
We don't know whose words are true
Strangers, lovers, husbands, wives
Hard to know who's loving who

Too many choices tear us apart
I don't want to live like that

Too many choices tear us apart
I don't want to love like that
I just want to touch your heart
May this confession
be the start

Google me!

There's one thing that's been going on inside of me for already quite a long time.
Maybe it's because me blood has been stirred right now by a prof who tends to take students as fools, that i am posting this issue right now.. Who knows - and can know - why we are doing the things we do?

On my blog there is a counter (see top right). And i can tell you why: i'm interested in the number of people visiting my blog, their origin and their reasons to drop by. What i would fancy a lot more would be visitors making comments, letting a lively discussion emerge. But this is not the case and i'm bemoaning this circumstance.

Anyway, but through this counter in question i have noticed that during the last months i have been found through google several times. Surely i know that my blog-space belongs to this combine. But what i find remarkable are the key words by which my blog is found: "ingredients of monster", "winter depression in Scandinavia", "UEFA Euro 2008 fanmile" etc. to name only a few. Of course, these are all terms appearing on my blog, but i never intended to make anyone visit my site nor do i hide names of celebrities like Britney Spears to attract more visitors. This blog just isn't informative, it's just my mental effusions! The reason why i created this blog in late 2005 was that i was studying away from my family and my friends. This blog should help keeping in touch over the distance of 250 kilometres.

And now? People from all over the world are visiting my blog. Recently i had a visitor from Pakistan right after one from Texas... ;)

And after writing this, is simply lost the thread... Well, i told you now, you can't say you weren't informed, right! Googling at one's own risk!

A little haha

The zebra crossing...



I always wondered, why it was called that way!
