Man sollte viel öfter nachdenken....

Wann ist Philosophie Philosophie ?

Quand la philosophie est la philosophie?

Der Zeit ihre Kunst, der Kunst ihre Freiheit

Ich mag Zeichnen.

Wenn ich mal eine gute Idee habe (was nicht allzu oft der Fall ist), dann habe ich eine genaue Vorstellung, wie mein Bild auszusehen hat.

Und das zieht die Probleme hinter sich her. Meine Fantasie ist nicht so ausgeprägt wie bei anderen, meine künstlerischen Fähigkeiten lassen auch zu wünschen übrig. 

Aber ich habe eine genaue Auffassung, wie mein Bild sein soll. Eins kann ich jetzt schon sagen: So berühmt wie Monet oder Van Gogh werde ich nie sein. Aber das habe ich ja auch gar nicht vor.

Ich will einfach nur ein Bild malen.

Es war schon früher so, wenn ich mit meiner Mutter gebastelt habe (irgendwie habe ich ihr Talent nicht geerbt). Es hat immer ganz gut angefangen, aber nach den ersten 10 min ist mein „Kunstwerk“ dann nicht mehr exakt wie meine Vorstellung gewesen und ich bin wütend geworden. Wenn man schon im Alter von 6 Jahren so hohe Ansprüche hat, sollte einem das zu denken geben.

Jedenfalls ist es immer draus rausgelaufen (auch heute noch), dass das besagte Kunstwerk in der Ecke landet und meine Laune den ganzen restlichen Tag verdorben ist. 

Es ist nicht so, als ob ich nicht das Geschick dazu hätte… mir fehlt einfach bloß das Talent.

Am liebsten mag ich ja immer noch Ausmalbilder. Da muss man bloß die Farben aussuchen und sonst nichts. 

Kleines Problem dabei: Die Motive sind immer nur für Kleinkinder gestaltet. Für „Ältere“ gibt es nichts. Meinen die, dass wenn man älter wird, automatisch „besser“ im Ausdenken von Motiven sein wird?

Ist das die Norm, dass man für einen normalen Menschen gehalten wird?
Man kann sich selber Zeichenmotive ausdenken?

Oder haben die Creativdirector keine Zeit oder vielleicht, noch schlimmer, keine Fantasie, was >Erwachsene< Zeichen wollen?

[Solange wenigstens noch die Kleinkinder mit ihren Motiven und Buntmalstiften zufrieden sind und die Erwachsenen nicht nerven, sind doch alle zufrieden.]

QUEEN

I am not someone who give up very fast. 
If there is a problem I want to have a solution. 

My music station (which I really like) is out of play.
I think, for a year now.
It is a little bit old. I don't know exactly the age but it's from my dad when he was living with his best friend.

It consits of a radio-station, a CD-player, an amplifier & two loudspeakers.
Everything works perfect except the amp. The Miracle

I used to hear my Queen "Greatest Hits #2" all day long. 

IRONY OF FAITH:
It was the perfect music for learning boring physics stuff ;) 

I don't know what to do. Nobody can repair it. It's a hard Life

I miss hearing my favorites CDs
It was so important for relaxing.
A Kind of Magic

As I am a very non-relaxed person [in fact: I am nervous all day long for no reason] it is terrible. Under Pressure

My iPod just have the "Greatest Hits 2010" and with my mobile phone I can only hear radio. 
Radio Ga Ga

My only chance is: The Show Must Go On

Radioactivity II

I really thought my physics teacher was joking.

He proposed last Friday: "We are gonna write a second test. The first part is about the last radioactivity test and the second about energy."

Well, the radioactivity-test wasn't bad. So the next test can come... 

-- HAHA --

The same procedure as last time. Now, the summary is about 5 pages.

And you have to know it all.

My concentration is very 'low'. Just to think about learning is impossible.

And the best is: he gave us worksheets where we can control our knowledge.

Petit problème: he doesn't want to give us the right answers.

> You can find them in your book<

I read over 20 pages - no word from which the questions were about.

Baushi (his real name is Jannis - don't know why they call him Baushi)

had the perfect answer for this situation:

LOL !! YOLO !!

For that answer he has to write 2 pages about what-you-don't-say-in-lesson -.-

Please, help me. I'm going crazy......

un peu d'art

I was bored ;)

to be lucky

Yesterday I read an articel about being lucky.
What you can do and what the main causes for luck are.

When you got a good mark in school, you are just 10 seconds happy. 
10 seconds

Isn't that frightening ? Just 10 seconds..
Maybe you learnt very much for this test and then just 10 seconds happiness.

I've tried it today.
I got a test back - and after 10 seconds was the euphoria gone


Maybe, that is a mental problem.
Or maybe not.

Champions League

FC Bayern München: 4
FC Barcelona:          0

Best friend said for fun (Bayern-Fan): Bayern will win with 2:0
After the 3:0 he said, it'll be fun when Munich wins 6:1. (Last DFB Pokal & Bundesliga games were won 6:1 for Munich)

I like both teams, but I thought, Barcelona would be better
My guess: Barcelona will win with 2:1

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WTH was going wrong with Barça ???
Or was Munich just too good  ?

Please help me making a decision about this game...
The consequences: Barça has to win very high for coming into the Finals 


Too much for my learn-physics-because-you-will-need-it-day.

Radioactivity

I love physics - most of the time.
I really love it.
Today - I don't.

When our physics teacher wants us to learn 7 (!!!) pages about radioactivity (most classmates just know "Paranormal activity") until tomorrow, I'll do it. 
I will learn the summary of 2 pages.
Yeah, but there're so many explanations...

So on and so on..
The result: 1 page is learned.

How the Test will be tomorrow:  
2/4 learned stuff (when I remember everything) 
1/4 logical conclusions (fortunately mostly right)
1/4 guessing


The proplem about our physics teacher is: he is very old (for older persons he is old) and the worksheets/pages he gave us were about 12 % wrong.

Really wrong. Not little grammar mistakes etc. 
Often, he begins to write a sentences but don't finish it ...
How should I learn this ??

I don't have the power for learning ..
While I should learn I am writing.

Whis me luck for tomorrow :)

Spring time

I like winter - really 
It's a beautiful season where you can go skiing or snowboarding, celebrate christmas and party on silvester. 

I like winter.
I don't like it in April.

The last months were terrible. Rainy, windy and ever second day you could see snowflakes.
In March in Strasbourg it was - also - snowing. Nobody expectet it. 2 hours later we were like snowmen and -women. 

Then the big surprise: the sun appears. Feels like the first time.
The next time will have been very pleasant. 

Today, 18 April 2013
The weather was ok, just like the other days.

surprise II: slowly and steady the skyline "took" a dark blue color. 
                After 5 min the sky was - I swear - black 

This scene was very frightening: The sun is shining but the sky is black.
And, of course, you don't have an umbrella with you.

What were you doing ? No, not really running home but going very fast.
5 seconds after arriving the door the thunderstorm started. 
This was it with the sunny weather.


I like rain - really.
After it had rained the air smells "nice", the plants in the parks got their "water". etc

I like rain.
I don't like it in April.

bookcase

Well, always (i swear - always) when I want reading a book, there is none. 
Normally, I am reading tous les jours. So that might be a problem.

I finished my last book 2 days ago. And I didn't go to the library because I had no time. 
So, like I am always doing, I went to my bookcase. It's from IKEA with 4x4 parts. 6 of them are filled with a double row of books. 

Every time standing before them I really got mad. At least, I have read every book 3 times. When I am reading a book a fourth time it has to be very good. But it is always getting boring after the first chapter because I know how it ends. 

Nothing to read ---> Boring
I hate boring situations. I had wasting my life.
So I decided to put all my books in order. 
Well, It wouldn't be me if I arrange them after authors, what kind of books they are etc.

I arranged them after their size. That was a lot of fun. 
Ernest Hemingway now stands next to my atlas, Stig Larsson between a book about architecture and concorde - airplanes....

But as I know myself, it'll be fun when I am searching a book next time. 
I bet, I have to ask my family where I have put it. 
I am the master disaster 

With this feeling of happiness until I have to search a book
I wish you a "nice" (my-teacher-would-kill-me-if-he-knew-I-am-using-this-word) day.

xoxo,
Chloé

Facebook Likes

Facebook. Likes. Without words !? 

Does it say how "beautiful" you are when you have 136 likes on your new profile picture ? 

Are you more "beautiful" than a other person when you get more likes ??

Or are you just receiving these like becaue you like everything from your friends. 

I guess: When you have over 1000 friends, you will get more likes than s.o who just has 100 friends. 

The little problem is: You are not the person who will say "I know that I'm beautiful". Maybe your self-confidence is not the highest. 

And then you worry. Worry about these "likes".

Aren't you as beautiful as others ? You just got 10 likes. 

It is terrible. I wonder wether other persons have the same problem as I have. 

Sometimes I am really sad for not receiving so much "likes".

What has the other person what I don't have ??

I have a friend - Sophia. She's a model. She's looking like a skeleton with blonde hair.

She has the same style as my grandmother. 

For you information: my grandmother wears blazers, trousers, no skirts. She is also rouged very >nice<.

Everybody says, Sophia is so beautiful (I really like the word "beautiful"). 

And she knows that. Last week she told us when she had been in Milan in the Abercrombie & Fitch store she was asked 3 times to be a model in their shop. 

Really !? Why has she us to told this ??

Of course, I'm a little bit jealous. But who isn't ?

My best friend is adoring her. She likes her style -.-

Everybody think Sophia is perfect. 

She isn't. 

She is stupid. Not just a little bit. 

She is writing "BIUTIFUL"

Sometimes I ask myself how she want to pass school. 

I really don't know. 

And then you see it. Facebook likes don't show how intelligent you are.

How you live you life. How amazing your personality is.

So, when you are counting your fb likes next time just think: I am as beautiful as xxx. He/She is just receiving more likes because xx is presenting them on facebook. They have to do that for their >personality<. 

You are beautiful. 

No matter what other persons might think

CAFE DE L'ILL @ Strasbourg

When you are in Strasbourg - do you a favor and go to cafe de l'ill. Its about 150 metres from the cathedral. With its mix from old & modern its perfect to relax for a while in your own world. Believe me. My friends and I were sitting there for 2h because it was snowing outside and nobody wants to go out. On the menu is everything you want to have - over tarte flambeé to the best desserts in world. And another big +: the prices are ok.

Cafe de l'ill

this moment when

This moment when everything is just horrible. Everything you think about has a bad influence. The whole situation is f***ing terrible.

I had such a day yesterday; or was it the day before ? - I don't know.
but it doesn't matter ...

I just had bought a new hotpants. Showing my mum at home AFTER looking in the mirror, thinking "WTF why I have so big thighs ??" and being about to start crying. She just said it is a little bit short but with my leg I could wear it. 

--Shorts were then laying in the corner of my room for the rest of the night--

Today I was looking for them in one size larger. Well, maybe it just have a bad cut or my legs are really fat. The "waist" was too large to wear this pants even with belt.

At home, I tried the *laying-all-night-in-corner* pants on - again
AND WONDER: THEY FIT PERFECT !!
HOW CAN THIS BE ??

I really wonder how this is possible .
I didn't lost any weight over night.

But whoever who is responsible for that - THANK YOU !


xoxo,
Chloé (who is just happy that her pants fits perfect now)





when you find any grammar mistakes - be happy 

Wedding proposal

Getting a proposal - nice 
Getting a proposal via facebook - not so nice
Getting a proposal via facebook from s.o you don't know - surprise 
Getting a proposal via facebook from s.o you don't know because the person is drunk - akward

I was laughing so much when receiving that message
It was like: "Hey .. I really don't know you but I think we should marry!"

The rest of the message doesn't matter ;)

My message back was that I agree him. And asking on which date the wedding is.
Unfortunately he didn't wrote back.

I would love to know when my own wedding is.
Waiting  & hoping for receiving an answer.

xoxo

I was ill.
I was ill the last week.
I was ill the last week and the week before.
Slowly it became boring.

I had not the power to do sth.
excuse me

Tomorrow I will be for one week in Strasbourg, France.
I was there 2 years before.
About what I will have done I will report the following week.

Impossible Situations

Is it possible to think to much ?

A little, easy answer can get to an impossible-creating-of-words-which-won't-hurt-someone

and because i have this situation too much often (<--- does this exist ?) i'd like to have a "way" to find out of this situation.

can you help me ?

#5 See the tulips in the Netherlands



Imagine how you pass with a bike on the giant tulip fields. The sun is shining, it is warm and it smells everywhere for tulips.


Need I to say more?

#4

#4 To stand in a volcanic crater

most of you might think, that it could be dangerous.
and it is. but you just have to be careful an not to get to these "holes"

when i was in Tunisia some years ago, i visited a vulcano, too.
at first, it was a little bit scary. you can't know wether it is really safe. and it smelled horrible after sulfur (maybe you should hold on your breath) the first man was turning back after 5 m/ 16ft. when you stand in the crater (wheter there was no sulfur anymore or you got used to it) you probably shouldn't start thinking how easy your life could be ended. you feel little, very little standing there ;) 
sounds like advises...

but it is a impressive experience at all
yeah, i don't know how to describe it right - to appreciate it right.

i just think you have to make this experience by your own.
DO IT

#3

#3 Standing in Paris on an bridge and people waving

you need to be a little bit self-confident but it makes a lot of fun when you stand there, maybe with your best friend, and every time a boat comes, you starts to wave your arm like an idiot. 

some people will ignore you. but the most will laugh and wave back. and there's nothing better than getting a huge smile :)

and it's better you do that in a different town, so you don't have to think who might see you. i chose paris. just because i like it. 
of course, you can choose a town yourself.

#2

#2: To spend silvester in NYC

this is a "wish" which several persons have.
spending this day/night in NYC is just amazing.
standing on times square and watching the "ball drop".
celebrating with your friends or family.

just to leave old things behind you and to start a new year. 
just to be satisfied in this moment.
just to remember how fantastic your life is.

#1

#1: To build a sandcastle with friends on the beach 


rembember when you was a little child: when you don't live near a beach, you used to build sandcastles just in vacation.

but it was always fun. to do it with your parents or with your friends

so get your friends on weekend, go to a nice beach and build a sandcastle.
spend the day happy, do a little picnic, just have fun

i promise - it'll be great 

new series

IMPORTANT MESSAGE

With the beginning of the new week (Monday, 18 February 2013)

"Bucket List - inspirational, independent, incredible"

I think, everybody knows what a bucket list is.
It is a list where you put things on which you want to do before you die.

I will post some key points from my bucket list, of course, but I would also be very happy about everything you send me from YOUR bucket list.


I will comment & post your things anonymous (or with your signature)
every Monday, so you have time to experience on the weekend :)

Please send your "wishes" at lightcyanoldlace@gmail.com

The bright side of life

"My life is like a romantic comedy exept there's no romance and it's just me laughing at my own jokes."

When I have read that on a facebook post today I wondered wether the person has a beautiful life or not.

For some people this may not even be a real question. But there are always two types of persons

Let's start with ... well, get surprised

Type I: Reading it, thinking, what bad life this person might have. No Romance means nobody with whom you can share your love. Nobody for a romantic picnic in summer....

Well, that's almost very depressing. 

And the second part of the sentence isn't much better, au contraire it is just getting worser.

No friends to share the funny moments of life. Nobody who wants to hear your jokes...

But, there's also (fortunately) another type 

Type II: Reading it, thinking, what wonderful life this person might have. Enough self-confident to laugh on him-/herself. To deal with life takes a lot of well-being. 

And when the person does not have a grand amour, one day it will come.

His or her friends will laugh about the jokes made by xx. Such a funny person can't have no friends. Would be impossible not to feel well in this persons sourroundings.

Everytime a insperation for oneself. 

There are always different sides on wich you can see the life.

Of course, there is not just "black" and "white", there are "red", "yellow" and "blue", too.

Just make sure you choose the sight which makes you the happiest.

Life your life, 

xoxo

don't have a title for that -.-

2013 is a few weeks old now.
time to "take a stock"

well. every year it's the same. you want to do something different; want to change something in your life, because you don't want it anymore

sometimes, you have a so called "bucket list"
if you have one, it is a good start ;)

but, when saying the truth, it is always (or in most cases) the same: after a few weeks or even days you f*** on that list and continue your old living.

doesn't you have the strenght, the power to do something ? or are you just lazy ?
well, i don't have intentions for the upcoming year, because i know before, that i will f*** on my "resolutions." and when i detect that i failed, i'm in a very, very, bad mood.

tomorrow is valentines day. as i heard several stories from friends, one of their biggest intention is: NOT BEING ALONE ON 14th FEBRUARY
well, everything they got to hear from me was: "the same procedure as every year"
and always, i swear, always they look at me with the biggest question mark existable (does this word exist at all ?)  in universe on their face and (if they can) raise on eyebrow. of course, i'm the master in raising eyebrows....


when you look on facebook or twitter, everybody (myself included) is posting sth about valentines day.
i've seen thousands of  'will you be my valentine'-cards
well, i have also posted, but not received an answer (which is very disappointing) if someone wants to be my valentine.
i'm just like each other.
you, too

in making wishes for the next year,
in wanting a valentine
etc.

just deal with it. you have a wonderful life, also if it isn't awesome now. it just can get better.


sorry for all the grammar mistakes

xoxo
