Great day today. Lazy Sunday became a nice breakfast, sightseeing Tongeren, eating spaghettie bolognese and having icecream - Sunday. Loved the antique market and the church in the middle of town of Tongeren. Even bought great stuff for low money over there. Back home now. Time to check out PostSercrets of today.
Tonight I felt strange having to decide whether to stay at home or go to the music performace and the housewarming party that I have been invited to. Arriving home from work I watched the following two speeches and I am quite happy that I did again. Its been a long time since I watched them. See TED talk section above. I like to share these two TED talks. Here we go:
And here is the second one:
So back to my decision. I felt the lack of sleeping-feeling and thought it might be a good idea to have a nap on the couch listening to some music and then go refreshed out to town. I did so. Got up, refreshed myself and thought Who the heck am I treating myself that way? Heard of that before: We are not a body having a soul, but a soul living in a body? Well, I like this view from the outside. Its helping me making decisions. So I thought about myself going down to town and listen to the music and join the housewarming. And somehow it did not feel comfortable at all...I thought I have to give my body the rest it is asking for. Even though I will have the feeling of missing something and miss the funny and entertaining moments and the jokes and the chats...I am trying to teach myself/ to understand what I read so often - that I dont have to say NO to myself when saying YES to somebody. And most of those somebodys dont even know that I am saying NO to myself just to say YES to them. We are all individuals? Well, think about it!
Yeah! Lets go discover today's secrets. PostSecret.com Got recommended the band Mayer Hawthornes. Already a few weeks ago (thanks, man!). Here you go. Sharing is caring, he?

Just heard on Radio Paradise: Wise Up by Aimee Mann. Nice. Fly by Nick Drake. Mmmm, Radio Paradise. *like* The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn by Alison Krauss and Union Station.
...running down the stairs to go to work I found my package of ordered stuff from zalando. Arrrrrgh! Now I had to go to work without opening and touching it all...
I talked the ears off a coworker telling about the stuff, which is only three pieces *giggle*. (Its been so bad, I owe him some drinks now.) Well, the shoes, the sweater, the scarf - its all been perfect choice. Fits.Looks good. Good price. Satisfied. :D
Being sick at home makes me do crazy things: I ordered things on zalando. A friend of mine had a coupon for 10 Euro less the amount you pay, so I checked it out and ordered three products. A pair of shoes, a sweater and a scarf. Curious? Go find out yourself: - PI911A05V-708 main argument: its real leather, they look very comfy, - ZA521J008-802 I love black/ black pattern, 50% cotton: cozy, - F1251H00V-058 black and white: classic, I love the lily flower on it, 100% cotton: cozy. Over all its been a nice deal. They say it can be delivered until Friday or Monday. Looking forward for the package now. :)
Speak low (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speak_Low - the german version is telling more content)
Speak low when you speak, love Our summer day withers away too soon, too soon Speak low when you speak, love Our moment is swift, like ships adrift, we're swept apart, too soon
Speak low, darling, speak low Love is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soon I feel wherever I go That tomorrow is near, tomorrow is here and always too soon
Time is so old and love so brief Love is pure gold and time a thief
We're late, darling, we're late The curtain descends, everything ends too soon, too soon I wait, darling, I wait Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon
Time is so old and love so brief Love is pure gold and time a thief
We're late, darling, we're late The curtain descends, everything ends too soon, too soon I wait, darling, I wait Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon Speak low

I am a creature of habit
And I move in circles around you
I will admit there's a pattern
One I created myself
None of my lovers dared leave me
I grew impatient and stale
Didn't look back once I'd left them
Cause I always expected to fail
But this time it's different
The rules don't apply
But I need some distance to step out of line
So grant me this wish and meet me back here in a year
If we still exist, I can let go of my fear
Fear of normalcy
Fear of the solid walls of our future and let go of my past
I must be crazy to want this
Cause you are the girl of my dreams
But I'm prone to ruin the good things
Cautious 'round balance it seems
But with you it's different
The rules don't apply
But I need some distance to step out of line
So grant me this wish and meet me back here in a year
If we still exist, I can let go of my fear
Fear of normalcy
Fear of the solid walls of our future and let go of my past
So grant me this wish and meet me back here in a year
If we still exist, I can let go of my fear
Fear of normalcy
Fear of the solid walls of our future and let go of my past
