Salsa Rocks!

Yesterday I met one of my friends who I haven't seen in a long time. She used to work at the same hospital than I did during my community service. She's cool to hang out with so we went to Stuttgart. I had to go by train and I hate that because it's always so boring on there all alone. But once I arrived I enjoyed the evening to the fullest. First we went to a bar and drank cocktails. We talked about lots of things that happened over the last couple of weeks. We really had deep conversations about family, friends and relationships. Even though we know each other for quite a time we really got closer as friends. Once the deep talks were over we wanted to have some more fun and went to a salsa bar. I have never been to one before so this was new for me. But it was really cool. I guess we were one of the few germans in there. There were a lot of latin american people and it was really cool because no one can move like they did yesterday. It was a totally new experience for me and the whole atmosphere was so friendly and welcoming. So we didn't hesitate to go on the dancefloor either. I didn't know how to dance salsa but thank God I'm a quit study and my friend taught me some moves.
To sum up I really had a great night yesterday. Hopefully more to come :)

MYA MYA MYA MYA MYA ALL OVER THE PLACE!

Well as you guys may have noticed I'm addicted to Mýa and after months of waiting for a new song we finally got the new single called 'Paradise'. It's a cool song which will be released in Japan first. But the news go on ... I was browsing through the internet this morning and found the new cover for Mýa's new album 'Sugar and Spice' which will hit stores on December 3d, 2008 but ONLY in Japan. These great news got me feeling high all day long.
At least there was a highlight this day. I really needed one badly. 3 days ago I lost my internet stick that gave me internet access and I had to buy one today for nearly 160 euros. Now that I'm in college I can't afford such things anymore but it's necessary. I was already late about the Mýa news and I don't want to miss any news about her new album in the future. So I bought this stupid stick again. Well, I guess I have to starve the next week haha
Right now I'm at my parents house for the weekend. I haven't seen them for over two weeks so I thought it was about damn time. There is no place like home!
College is doing great so far. It's a lot of stress but I knew from the start that it wouldn't be easy. But at least all of my courses are interesting and I can't wait to let the knowledge of german and english linguistics / literature enter my brain hehe
I'm going back this sunday. I want to meet some of my friends in the meantime and have a good time.
See you next week :)

TV Freak!

It's time for my favorit shows to return to TV! I love this time of a year because seasons are starting to air and I finally get to know how my shows continue. Some years ago I had like 8 shows that I was following on a weekly basis. Most of these shows ended or got cancelled or I lost interest in them. Here is a list of the tv series that I watched regulary:

Charmed, Desperate Housewives, Living with Fran, Modern men, King of Queens, Supernatural, The simple life, Pepper Dennis and others that I can't even remember because they only aired for one season or so.

Now you see what I meant with my favorite shows being cancelled and you do the math. Supernatural and Desperate Housewives are the only shows left. Housewives hasn't been that great last season so I lost interest in watching it. I also heard that the last season ended with a five year jump into the future which I thought was a stupid decision. So Supernatural is the only show left for me to watch. And I LOVE this new season. They introduced a new threat to us in the first episodes and things are starting to get really dark which is something I like.
If you don't know the show you should really give it a try. It aires every thursday on the CW right after the hit series Smallville. I would really like to get the DVDs but they are way too expensive so I have to wait till they lower the prize. So far I own the complete Charmed/King of Queens and Roseanne series on DVD. More to come ;)

What are your favorite TV series?

Truth Or Dare?!

Hey you guys. I'm in my new dorm and I love it. It's small but I just feel save here and I decorated it the way I like it. The other people who are living here in this house are cool as well but I think that everyone here wants to be anonymus. But, oh well. I got here on tuesday with a friend of mine who already lives here. She was showing me everything around here and I have to say...the city is HUGE! At least for me. I grew up in a town with 60,000 inhabitants. It's not that small but you can reach everything by foot. Here I have to go by bus and train but that's ok. Learning by doing ;)
I'm going back home today, though. I have to wash my clothes and get some new stuff for my dorm that I couldn't carry the last time. I'll be back on monday or tuesday the latest. Hopefully with another friend of mine who wants to visit me. It's not like I'm alone here but it's different. All of my friends are either in my hometown or in another city for college. But I have Reeda over here and she's really helping me out a lot and tries to keep me busy. Yesterday we have been at her friends house till 4am. We drank, talked and played the game "Truth or Dare". To make a long story short someone got really upset and left (not me lol) and kind of ruined the night. But everything is back to normal again. So let me give you an advice and NEVER ever play this game at a party. It can get ugly trust me! ;)
See you later!

F**k it!

I'm so angry right now. Since I have my laptop I got a new internet connection. It worked perferctly ... well, since yesterday. Somehow my new host managed to make my connection so slow that every site takes MINUTES to load completely. They did that because I was downloading so much over the last two weeks. Hello? I have a new laptop and needed so much software that I have to work with for my Mýa site, etc. I guess uploading so many videos to my Youtube account didn't really help either. UGH! Now I have to wait till the end of the month then my connection gets back to normal. Back to where it's supposed to be!!!!!

Anyway, what else is new in my life? I was shopping yesterday with one of my friends. I needed some things for my dorm in Augsburg. I bought some decorative stuff because I want to feel comfortable over there. I'm not in the mood to list what I bought but I will make a picture of my dorm once it's decorated and finished.

Oh and I just got back from my friends house. Rita, who is one of my best friends just got back from Italy and invited me and other friends of ours to her home. We were just chilling and talking. One thing that we came up with was new years eve. So we decided that we want to go to Berlin this year to celebrate. Let's see if this will work out or not. But I guess this time it will be better because last year I had to work on January 1st and couldn't party a lot because I had to wake up at 5am. I was pissed so I hope that the trip to Berlin will actually happen. Let's wait and see.

Doll Domination


I have never been a big fan of the Pussycat dolls. However I enjoyed some of their songs such as 'Buttons', 'Sway', 'I don't need a man' or 'We went as far as we felt like going'. I listened to their first album 'PCD' and didn't really like it. I didn't think that it was bad it just didn't really catch my attention. So when I heard that their sophmore album 'Doll Domination' will be released this year I was sceptical. I gave the album a chance, though. And I have to let you know that I don't regret it. The album is pretty cool and I love nearly every track on it. The only songs I don't like are 'In Person' and 'Elevator'. This is one of the best albums I have heard this year. In my opinion music isn't what it used to be. Most of the artists sound the same nowadays and nothing really stands out anymore. Now I don't say that this new Pussycat dolls album is different to what is out right now but still, the album has great songs, great productions and just feel-good-tracks which is something that I needed. I can't even name a standout song that I like best because there are so many that I can't choose from. The only thing I would have changed is the fact that Nicole is still featured on every song. I know that she is the lead singer of the band but you can at least give them other girls a chance to express their talent. Melody is one of the best singers but still she doesn't get many parts. Nicole is getting annoying and I'm actually kind of glad that her solo career isn't that successful. Her voice is everywhere and I hate that sometimes. Anyway, give this album a chance and get your copy of 'Doll Domination'.
9/10
