ok, we went for a Microbrewery where they had beers like german ones. And you can only get the beers in the breweries, not in stores not anywhere else. Kinda cool. The very next morning we had bagels with peanutbutter and jelly. yam.(also eating it at the moment..;))I went for st cathrines and urban outfitters. well whatever.. I hated shopping that day. don’t know why.. Too crowded, maybe. got a really nice sheet though.It took me like hours to get back home.. I was kinda mad.. don’t know. Morgan and me went shopping for dinner. We prepared a german dish;) (rouladen mit kloss und blaukraut;))after thaqt we had some ppl around because of the stanleycup. th edmonton oiles were in the finals so we cheered for them. Unfortunately they didn’t win.I fell asleep by ten.. might be the jetlad..Jesterday we got up early and got to have breakfast at El dorado, my favourite place for having breakfast. Morgan liked it as well, so we had a good start. afterwards she went for work and I bought some cute stuff and went shopping for dinner at the market. I love it! You can buy almost everything on them and it’s way cheaper and fresher.. I’m totally into it! So we had a bbq last evening. Greek Souvlaki with Tzasiki and roasted vegies and red rice. Everyone liked it. I had the chance to be creative and prepare the dishes which was a lot of fun. :) for desert we had honeyyoughurt with walnuts and a nice decoration with pears, cookies and strawMorgan is at work right now and I gonna get outa here for walking around (love it!) wonderful weather!

Trust me on the Sunscreen
June 10, 2006, 9:32 pm
Filed under: Daily life

I'm sad right now. Keeping my head up with this:

—— 

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ’97… wear sunscreen.

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it.

The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists; whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience.

I will dispense this advice.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked.

You are NOT as fat as you imagine.

Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing every day that scares you.

Sing.

Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts, don’t put up with people who are reckless with yours.

Floss.

Don’t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes you’re behind. The race is long, and in the end, it’s only with yourself.

Remember compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.

Stretch.

Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don’t.

Get plenty of calcium.

Be kind to your knees, you’ll miss them when they’re gone.

Maybe you’ll marry, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll have children, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll divorce at 40, maybe you’ll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don’t congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself, either. Your choices are half chance, so are everybody else’s. Enjoy your body, use it every way you can. Don’t be afraid of it, or what other people think of it, it’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever own.

Dance.

Even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

Read the directions, even if you don’t follow them.

Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.

Get to know your parents, you never know when they’ll be gone for good.

Be nice to your siblings; they are your best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.

Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.

Travel.

Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old, and when you do you’ll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders.

Respect your elders.

Don’t expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.

Don’t mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it will look 85.

Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it’s worth.

But trust me on the sunscreen.

for my Canadatrip. Can'T wait for it. I need rest.. I gonna find peace etc for sure over there, my beloved one.. still wondering how to manage all the costs, but actually I don'T care since I know "I sleep when I'm dead" My new philosophy. Since we only have this life to live is this the only way to celebrate it. Don'T care just don't don't care too much.. :)

I have to rethink about some essential stuff in my life which recently happened. I might cancel some things.. "Chicago is SO two years ago" I love this song.. 

Actually I don't feel like writing at the moment.. ttyl,

I'm working in the kitchen for almost 2 days now:) It'S quite nice and a lot stressless than the service. Just listenin to "The ghost of you" by "MCR = My Chemical Romance" very nice song! hm… Desert song is even better! got the "Life on the murder scene" for just 14,90 Euros instead of 54 euro (which would be, if you buy it in DE). Happy about that.. Just had been fallen asleep yesterday while watching dvd1 (might give it another try tonight).

Need more EMO! Where are all these hot emoguys.. I just love their dressing..Well, I gonne get a new haircolour tomorrow(new cut as well) intense red, with pink and bleck straights. Gonna put a pic on, wenn I have it *excited*
