Never without tea, flashcards and some snacks! Hello fellow chatter boxes! I am actually quite angry at myself for blogging right now because there's still so much I have to get done today but ohh well... (I feel like "oh well" has recently become my motto for way too many things, oops) My final oral exams of my Matura take place on the upcoming Monday and my brain has turned into mashed potato consistency. Although I have chosen my absolute favourite subjects for my final oral exams (German, English, Psychology and Philosophy) I'm not really having the time of my life right now. I did start to study on time, but definitely didn't go with my study agenda I had planned out a month ago, that was already really tight and additionally to it already being stressful I also slacked off the last few weeks, telling myself that I need a break after my written exams at the end of May which was totally a very horrible excuse to lie in my hammock and enjoy the sun. A...

Current living room "decor"... Heeellooo! Currently blogging in my pyjamas in my bed at almost lunch time but hey- still have about three weeks left until I have to take a header into the deep sea that is adult life. So for now, I'll enjoy getting my laundry washed and my floor swept because that's gonna come to an end veeeery soon. But don't get me wrong- I'm also really excited for what's to come. My cups, plates and my very pretty copper kettle are already stored in my new kitchen's cupboards, and lovely plush pink tea towels are hung over the radiator to dry: feels just like home. I love that no matter what cupboard you open- it's just so ME. Like- I love to choose wall paint and curtains and planning the tiniest details. Moving actually is really fun- and a free workout, if you keep the dozen cardboard boxes in mind that I have carried in and out of my new home. There's still so much to do- so many shelves to build, curtains to sew...

And suddenly you know that it's time to start something new and trust the magic of new beginnings. Hi there! I can't really believe that today was actually my very last day as a student! Although I am glad that I can check off another thing on my "goals" list, it feels incredibly strange to somehow just not be a student anymore, since that's what I've been for the last 12 years, I have met most of the people I value most in the halls of my school and I can't believe that I'll have to get on with my days without my 13 amazing classmates, who feel like so much more- family.  Being a very small class and spending more than 30 hours per week together in one room for four years, we formed a bond like no other class. It makes me sad that this time has come to an end, however I feel incredibly... ... grateful for all the memories I've made ... thankful for having been able to go to a school in an advanced and stable country that allows me to   ...

...don't assign anyone else that much power over your life. The past few weeks have not been easy. I have cried. I have screamed. I have hated. I have loved. but most importantly I have learned I have laughed I have lived I have loved. Break ups are never beautiful. No matter if someone cheated, lied and left or if someone held your hand, hugged you tight and left. No matter if he was an asshole or the love of your life- he must not be the reason for your happiness or the reason for your hurt. The only one you should give that amount of power to is solely yourself. so get up- lace those running shoes and run those kilometers hit those keys and write that essay rock those heels and get out to party!

and so the adventure begins... Hi! A lot has changed since my last post. I am almost finished with school (like- forever!)  and I'm single again. Wow it actually feels really weird to type it... Anyways I have shared on here that this relationship was very rough and pretty much like a roller coaster. But lately the downs were just too much for us both apparently and a talk that should have cleared the air turned into a very sudden break up. I probably cried more than he was worth and even though my tummy churns painfully just at the thought of him (and literally EVERYTHING reminds me of him- even super basic things like certain coffee brands, meals on the menu and specific pieces of clothing in my wardrobe) I am getting my sparkle back. So to conclude- the past days have been extremely painful, disappointing but also eye-opening. Listening to Little Mix, going on an IKEA shopping spree and reading A LOT of poetry is really helping, so here's to waiting for sexy men i...

Heeey there beautiful people, I actually managed to survive the first day after midterm holidays and let me say: it was actually a quite productive one! Luckily there were loads of lessons with substitute teachers today as the flu seems to have found its way into the faculty room and I know this sounds horrible but I was quite thankful for that. More time to focus on more urgent project and have some time for mind wandering at home. I also got my thesis printed and bound today! This must somehow be how authors feel like when they hold their first novel in their hands, I was so proud of myself and flipping through the pages felt amazing! I was so motivated that I started preparing my thesis presentation which is actually due in a few months, so nothing to worry about. Got back my music test today and it's an A! Quite a tight one, but an A stays an A, am I right? Tomorrow I'll find out my physics test grade and I'm very sure that I failed this one... To be honest, I...
