I am officially obsessed...

.. with these things currently



this show is so lame, it's almost amazing. Watching blonde girls doing (fake) internships at TeenVogue, being nothing but dramaqueens, who have nothing better to do than going out in L.A.'s clubs and restaurants. If I should ever make to L.A. again, I already know the best places for dinner.



yeah I don't cry about the split-up of DFA 1979 anymore. I found Does it offend you, yeah?



mhhh best hot chocolate ever, besides Swiss Miss. If you live in the states, please send me some with the extra portion marshmellows.



Yeah, I'm still not over him yet.

Casting for war

The American army is casting Arabian people in Germany again.
So if you ever wondered how it would be to live in Iraq these days feel free to go to one of the castings in Bremen, Hannover, Wolfsburg, Nürnberg or Cologne. You'll get paid 90-130 € for playing a resident of a village in Iraq. Become a cop, a coffee-shop owner or whatever.
But sorry, no cellphones, no cameras, no computers allowed.
Yeah, you knew there was something, right?

the job dilemma

for me this year is the year of healthiness.
so i first got my eyes controlled and now i have to wear glasses from time to time. remember? i posted that some days ago.
then i bought footbed-insoles for my vans and chucks. did i ever mention my age??
and next month i have an appointment for a blood count.
now i have to think about the next steps...dentist, gynecologist...
i can say that at the end of the year my body is checked through and is ready for his third decade.
but what about the emotional health?
in this case i wasn´t inactive as well.
first i bought bath salts and now i take a bath once a week.
i also stopped hearing this agressive music exclusively. thanks at this point to german kleinigkeit for the new mixtape. so let more emotional feelings and relaxing moments come to my daily life.
but what hurt me last year most was my future. ok, some of you might say that there was another little problem as well...äh yes, that´s right. but it´s not to mention in this post. ;)
the best decicsions i made this year so far were first: i dropped my diploma thesis-theme. i worked for months on the old one but this sunday i came to the point to say stop. there were too many dead-ends. this week i´m looking for a new one. I´m feeling eased...and i can´t say how great this feeling is. the second decision was to turn my focus when thinking about my work and job in the future after finishing university. the last year i searched despairingly for a job position or an aim like that. something to finish university for. that is not really easy when making the dilploma in sociology. but now my focus is on the place where i like to work, the city and the attitude to life i like to have then.
in my associaton i have to wear sunglasses when going to work all the year round. i can smell the sea on this way to work and see it after walking a few minutes through the city.
the picture in my mind is so wonderful that my motivation for graduation is higher than ever.
the moral from all of this is that you can change nearly your hole life just by changing your point of view, your focus and your attitude towards something. it´s a lang way you have to go but everything will be good at the end. it sounds more melodramatic as i wanted it to, sorry. :)

Monkey Fixtape Vol II


I know it took us a while to do another tape, but we finally did it.
Vol II just got finished and you're first to enjoy this piece of music.
If you like it, let us know. If you don't.. I guess we don't give a shit then.

Read, write, watch Pt. V


Yesterday night it was "Things to do in Denver" which is actually one of my favourite movies ever. Christopher Walken is god, you know it.
And if you're German you might have realized that German titles of American movies are sometimes so ridicioulus, you don't know if you should rather laugh or cry about it. Why do people not just take the orginal title and translate it?
But in this case the German title is actually much better than the American title "Das Leben nach dem Tod in Denver" sound way more dramatic than "Things to do in Denver".
Whatever: If you're into gangster movies, watch this one.
Andy Garcia
Christopher Walken aka God
Christopher Lloyd
Steve Buscemi
