+ oh and this is endy ...

+ a tres bientot

# since sunday, the nights are crap!

+ i cant sleep for days, and if i fall to sleep its 2 hours after i went to bed
+ so im always tired at day time, this leads to naps and naps lead to sleepness nights again ...

+ i kinda have plans for the weekend, sounds good huh?
+ its the 3rd last weekend here, but i will spend it with some tourist things, cause im broke ;)
+ today i was really motivated and excited to go back home
+ im looking forward to do so many things, and i miss the friends ALOT!

+ im asking myself, if its easy to write really good lyrics
+ i hope that i will be creative enough to play alot on the bass!
+ i want to become more productive

+ well im kinda bummed right now, i took a walk for 45 minutes but im still awake
+ i hope today its gonna be a better night ... 21 days ...

+ au revoir tour eiffel?

# to keep my mind away i went sight seeing

+ so yesterday i took the rer to virofray and walked 2 stations
+ since i just can go to zone 3, versailles is in zone 4 ...

+ anyways, i enjoyed an hour walking to the castle and i was stoked
+ so i took a lil break infront of the castle, having a baguette and later i visited the inside
+ for some reason i was really disappointed cause i thought it would be really nice
+ instead there where empty rooms and too many tourists
+ the backyard was sweet, but well it was a typical autmn day ...
+ i took a few pictures and left after 2-3 hours

+ walking back to the rer, i was a tiny bit exhausted but i didnt feel like going back to the house
+ but when i arrived, lou wanted to have tacos for dinner so i didnt say no haha
+ the day ended with the amelie movie in french, but i didnt finished that movie cause i felt too sick ...

+ so all i did today was relaxing, drinking tea, and writing applications
+ the caughing is horrible as fuck, i wanna be healthy right now ...
+ three weekends till i leave paris, but i have different feelings about that all ...

# lets get a job and have fun

+ im looking for jobs at the moment, its kinda fun cause there are nice offers
+ but who knows if they want me ...

+ anyways im kinda alright, i think i might leave paris in december and thats it
+ starting 2010 with alot of wishes and new things would be so dope
+ better than coming back, living this weird crazy life here haha

+ im thinking about to put some osb boards in my room
+ and then i will throw a huge bmx/birthday party in january, sounds good huh?!
+ i will ride daily again, go swimming, play my bass, and not bumming around :D

+ i will come back with more love and appreciation, alot changed in fw
+ im looking so forward for the new and old friends, the flatlander and everything
+ i am motivated but i dont see myself, staying here for 5 more months

# hard work pays off

+ yesterday i put a gift into reiles bag, sadly she didnt saw it in the airplane
+ anyways ive told her about today and she had to look for that word in french on it
+ after 30 min. she found it cause there was alot of writing on the wrapping paper

+ so she started to translate and my stomach felt so weird in an awesome way
+ it has been a long time since ive felt that feeling!
+ so ive told her, either she says no or yes and she was like: "das ist wohl war"
+ and i was sooooooo relieved!

+ i just told her about my feelings and i am totally happy about everything!
+ i could jump in a circle!

# reile was in town and it was the BEST weekend ever in Paris!

+ friday was the day, where i met one of my best friends again!
+ since i left the kids home for a few min. i took the car the the next rer
+ i was looking every where for reile, runnin like there is no tomorrow
+ then i saw somebody running to me and it was like in a movie!
+ i had to hug reile 4 times, i was smiling so much and i was so happy to see her!

+ we went back to the house and played some games with the kids
+ watching bridget jones and 3 hours later, lou finally went to bed
+ i also got some presents from germany
+ my mom made a beanie for me, its soooo cool! i got alot of cool tea! a new pyjama (my mom felt sorry cause i was cold at night haha) and a lil joker from reile, and a christmas calender haha

+ so after i could chat with reile alot! about 2 am we slept but night was the hell!
+ it was so hot, my heart started beating so fast and i couldnt sleep, fuck that!
+ anyways we woke up at 7 and without a huge breakfast we went to the moulin rouge
+ we saw the musicstores! 30 in one street! and went to sacre coeur
+ it was such an incredible view from there, soooo awesome!

+ later we visited les halles, had some lunch and i showed her the la fayette
+ we were kinda tired, but went to the arc de triumph, walking up that building
+ it was a beautiful view too, so we walked along the champs elysee
+ in the disney shop we bought something for fabi and went home

+ there we started having some vodka-ahoi brause, dinner and getting ready for the night
+ we continued with some cola rum and went back to paris for the notre dame and the tour eifel
+ it was so awesome, but we were kinda drunk hahaha
+ so at chatlet we went to an irish pub and had some beer and a guy named shames lol

+ about 1.30 we left, i was leaning on reiles sholder and felt to sleep
+ well i cant really remember tho but reile took alot of pictures while i slept lol
+ so i really was surprised that we found the right bus haha, i cant remember!

+ about 3 am we were home, totally tired and got up at 8 the next day
+ the breakfast was nice and we went back to notre dame and tour eifel
+ but the hangover was weird lol, so we got some starbucks cofey and a cheeseburger
+ at the louvre, we saw a lot but we were soooo tired
+ then we went back home for getting ready for the airport

+ around 8 i had to say goodbye but i was waiting until reile was thru with the security stuff, then i pantomimed stuff i hope she got it haha
+ cause i put a gift in her bag, that she didnt know about

+ when i turned around and went to the rer a few tears went down my face
+ but i was smiling and was looking so forward for christmas! its just 5 weeks!

+ so THIS was the BEST weekend in paris, with alot of fun, laughing and nearly 400 pictures!
+ i love reile alot, she is awesome and i am so happy right now! :)

# hope this week is going over fast!

+ the weekend was weird, i got into arguments 3 times
+ getting yelled for no big reason is just so dumb!

+ when i got up at saturday i wanted to leave for paris early
+ i wanted to pick up my laundry but nada! the door was already closed but the family was still there, wtf? 
+ so i headed to paris where i took a long walk and went to the guitar center!
+ i finally found my favourite acoustic bass! good thing is, that i can get it in germany way cheaper!
+ anyways, i went to the cinema that night and we watched a french movie, called farewell
+ this was the first time ever that i went to a cinema, since i`ve been back from the us lol
+ the friends and me had some coffey after and i went home early

+ sunday was weird, i got a call from fabi in da morning but i was happy!
+ then i went riding later but it was so messed up, that i left after 30 min.

+ im still thinking about when i will leave paris
+ but i hope if i make a decision, that this one will be the best for me! ...

# its going up and down here!

+ the past days where good and bad, i finally got that ticket for going home
+ i am totally excited to be home somehow, but things need to change
+ so today during the pony lesson i wrote a to do list and a wish list haha
+ there where almost 32 things on it, and the half of it was for a totally, stylish new room!
+ i really need to change my room, so i can feel more compfortable

+ getting rid of these dark-blue walls of my brother, the blue rug and first thing i want is a big bed! 
+ the couch has to be recovered and i want a walk-in closet! dope cd shelves and a selfmade room devider
+ a selfmade desk and that table made of old bmx parts with a glass plate, and a polaroid wall!

+ sounds like creativity?! ;) it motivates me alot, being stucked in that small town

+ oh and the vacations are over, i was totally surprised so tomorrow i need to get up early
+ but then i can ride and i am stoked about that, i hope to ride alot till the year ends
+ the shredlistgoal is: half of the year riding, now its about 130 times, thats not much! i want more!

+ oh and i kinda know now, when i will leave paris, i am nearly 80 % sure about that ...

# this week turned into dumbass arguments and hellafun anyways

+ since ive been back from vienna, alot of crap happened
+ but the good part was kinda, that i started the next day with putting my bike together and riding!
+ to bad that i am not a future teller, so the day after i got into some trouble with that family
+ after an ungentle wake up and an argument for no reason, the day started really strange
+ so next thing that came into my mind, lets go home (but who would NOT have this idea after such a thing?) 

+ anyways, mental i was bummed alot, so i had to talk to a close friend afterwards
+ so i talked to reile via skype and i love her to death cause she is so awesome!
+ yesterday i went to that pub meeting with some friends there cause one of them went back to germany
+ so i had really really good chats and they are soooo cool
+ one of them also told me about a dope spot, which is flat and in the background you can see the eifeltower!
+ i kinda talked about that videoproject and they were so stoked, so i was really motivated to keep going that!

+ for some reason i sneaked thru this night without paying much for beer (thanks markus for that haha) 
+ well, this night kept my mind away and im hella excited to go on some next dates with them all
+ oh and hahahaha ... aureilie was so fucken drunk, it was such a fun time watchin her lol
+ so um....tomorrow i will go riding in da morning and riding in that indoor flatland spot
+ i hope to get more motivated instead of loosing it again in such a short time!

+ and now i go foodshopping in the kitchen fridge cause i am alone that weekend ...
+ oh and ... i love schoko orangen :D
+ AAAAAAAND my aunti wrote me a letter/card, gosh i miss her cause i love her alot :D

# i was in vienna for the weekend and it was dope

+ before i forget what i did in vienna, i will write it down so i can flip thru it later and remember :)

+ friday i packed all my stuff, went to paris getting some last things for the trip
+ after i picked up the kids i left for the rer and was ready to go to austria
+ the trip in the plane was horibble, cause i felt a lil sick so i was totally glad to get out of the plane

+ stephi picked me up, so i wasnt worried about, how to go straight to vienna
+ spending the night there was chilled and i put my bike together right after i got up
+ after having breakfast + looking for some sightseeing stuff, we were heading to the city
+ so we walked around and i saw some sweet buildings, right after we went to the spot riding

+ there we met irina and rode a lil, but the ground was full with stones so it was kinda scary riding there
+ after a few hours we went to her appartment having some coffey and a chat, really chilled
+ right after we ate some pizza, had some barcadi-cola and went to the poker-partey lol

+ there, we had some champodka, beer, poker of course and more good stuff ;) 
+ i won one round and was sooooo happy, cause i won more money than i spent
+ but after 3 champodka and 2 beer i kinda felt it and lost the half of the money again lol
+ around 11 pm everybody left and we were there having something to smoke before we went home ...

( the whole trip ... )



( two more pictures )

# english is good, french is better

+ the past 2 days, french class wasnt that good, i dunno, its school and im totally tired of it ;) 
+ so i went downtown with some friends, having a chilled time at point des arts yestreday
+ during the trip in the rer my phone ran out of money, so i had to find a tabak shop
+ when i left the mall, a french guy was like...smilling at me, asking where my clothes style comes from
+ so i was like...germany so i had a short chat with him while he took me to the next tabak shop

+ he wanted to have a drink with me but i was just like...ahhh nooo, give me your number instead :D
+ so i went to the others and we headed to the next bar where international students met
+ there we met french, english and american people, also other nationalities ...
+ we had some chats but my french is so horibble, so i talked to an american
+ well i felt the mojito that i brang with me so everything was fun hahaha

+ all in all it was a fun night, even tho the people were kinda nuts
+ and thats me in parc de sceaux
+ riding sucks and my leg is still over stretched a lil ... fuck that!

# so these past few saturdays were sweet!

+ yesterday i went to luxembourg and met with a few people
+ we all went to this jardin de luxembourg and checked it out
+ there was this huge disco ball hanging around, it looked like the fernsehturm without ... turm :D
+ it was beautiful and it lighted the castle there

+ after we walked thru paris and got lost
+ i had really nice chats with the people, and thought they were really likeable
+ we finally found a metro and went to chatlet going to the next pub
+ after 3 beer and 2 hours i was done, so me and one of the girls went to the last rer
+ if she wouldnt have been there i would have taken the first rer in da morning around 6 not the last lol
+ so i was in bed around 1.30 am, this was a good night...lets continue on tuesday!

+ thats me under a ball of one of the festival de jardin gardens last saturday

# sooooo lets study? 

+ i read thru this french text again and again, i understand but one or two things are unclear
+ i also should start to try to talk french now
+ the family is just waiting for me to say, stop talking english, this was hard to hear :D
+ so i guess in about 2 weeks i will start this, no more english anymore

+ i also talked to my mom yesterday and we studyied together hahaha
+ then i went to bed late so i was tired somehow when i came back today in the morning
+ i slept 2 hours and had this weird dream about the friends and some stairs, i still miss them alot

+ for some reason im tired again and this head ache is coming off and on ...
+ right now its loud, victor took some friends home, not the perfect situation to study ...

+ and this is how i learned yesterday in bed hahaha

# the past 2 weeks were crazy


+ i get along well with everybody, lou left for 2 weeks and language school started yesterday
+ just cause i didnt take a test they put me in the first class for beginners
+ well even my name wasnt on the fuckin list ...

+ so today i took that test and they put me traight to level 4 (5 is the highest) 
+ it was hard to follow but i managed that somehow
+ thursday i will check out level 3, cause this might perfect for me

+ so the weekend was nice, we went to loire et cher, checking out some festivals and a castle
+ i did a mistake with ordering at the restaurant and ordered snales for some reason
+ after the third bite i realised what i was eating, really horrible, it tasted like a cellar and chewing cum haha

+ this weekend i might check out defense, with all these sky scrapers, i also will get some random things for school
+ i dont even own a pencil, so i might need a folder and some pens

+ oh and french car drivers are horrible, it seems that they won their liscnece, they crashed 2 times in my car

+ oh and i ate seashells last week, i was thinking that it was just decoration but it was a real seashell that i ate ...

# OH MY GOD, REILE IS COMMING

+ hell yeah, today reile booked her flight to Paris
+ i totally miss her!! and i am so excited when she will arrive! :D 
+ the weekend is gonna be wild and looong
+ WOOHOOO :D 

+ so, thats it i guess, i just wanted to share that with the world
+ i am totally looking forward :) 
+ loire, vacation time, vienna, Reile, christmas, friends, birthday :o DOPE!

# its going down!

+ its weird that this lil letter took almost 3 weeks to go over here!
+ these past 2 days were chilled, a lil bit boring, and less riding action!
+ the weekend was dope, i went to the whos next event, and the party was really sweet
+ the guys are awesome, and the drinks were for free, so imagine what happened to me lol
+ riding was dope on sunday! i rode twice, one alone almost 2 hours, the other time at opera

+ tomorrow i have lou with me all the time! ...
+ and i need to take the kids to their activities, horse riding, desin and blah
+ so there is hardly some time for me
+ but i am looking way forward to go riding on thursday, hardcore!

+ sometimes there are random thoughts in my mind, but right now im looking forward!
+ tooooo: go to vienna!! lous 2 weeks trip! the fistival de loire! reiles visit!!! and christmas time at home!

# Its been 4 weeks since i´ve been gone

+ so i kinda feel like home here in chatenay malabry
+ i hardly ride really, cause there was no time for it, unfortunatly
+ but i hope everything is gonna change tomorrow!

+ right now im preparing my applications, for whatever job or university or ... ? 
+ just cause there is nothing to do cause the kids have friends over here
+ so i can do whatever i want in that house, except leaving to ride hardcore :/ 

+ im waiting for my box from germany, with new bmx parts, clothes and gifts from my mom
+ i hope they didnt loose it

+ im looking way forward to ride alot, to go to vienna, to welcome my lovely friends here
+ and to be home for christmas, new years and my freakin 20ths birthday
+ haltet den vodka und das brausepulver bereit! :D

+ soooo....and now i dunno what to do ... im planless a little bit
+ i will prepare a lil book with all my emails and notes from this year, till i´ll be back from paris

+ till now, au revoir

# today is the day

+ yesterday was a really nice day, i started with a chilled breakfast
+ i went to my aunti, giving her some pictures and then she had to go
+ i went back home picking up my bike, on the way to berlin
+ i met sandra, havent seen her for ever! so we talked a lil and i went to the trains

+ i got off the train in erkner, meeting caro for a few minutes, giving her the poster i made
+ it was totally cool to talk to her, to bad that we`ve just seen each other for some minutes :/ 
+ then she had to go, and i was joking, giving her a handshake and some knuckles
+ but i was totally kidding cause she became so unsure hahaha, i left with a hug

+ in berlin, i had a really chilled session with markus and andre, talking a lil, riding, totally cool
+ i hope to see them at some french contest, hell yeah!
+ on my way home i had like 4 messages on my phone, and i was totally overstrained with that lol

+ i picked up sandra at 11 pm, she helped me packing and wrapping the gifts
+ she stayed till 2 am and we had a really nice chat, cause we havent seen each other for ages

+ right now i am totally cool with packing, except that i have a lil too much in my bag
+ if so, i have to take off random things that i might not really need!

+ so now i will have a cool breakfast, packing the rest and i will pick up reile and fabi at 2 pm
+ i am totally looking forward to see them :) i love my friends!

+ well, fuck off rhetorical devices! we`ve burned that shit during fabis birthday, yeha!
+ i am off to france!

# this picture was from last weekend (fare well partey) and im loving it :D


+ i just went to my bros new apartment its really nice
+ and i just thought how nice it would be with my own one
+ its also good that he lives right around the corner, cause then I can move far away :) 

+ i just made some extra gifts for the friends, i brought some sea shells from rügen and i wanted to use them
+ too bad, i broke 4 of 5, so i just could use one of them :/ but i like the result, its totally sweet :) 

+ tomorrow i need to do soooo many things, getting to see caro the last time
+ i need to pick up my new bars, little britain night with reile, riding a lil in berlin the last time, going to my aunts, ....
+ but i kinda have the feelin that i am nearly done with everything i wanted to do before i leave

+ i just need to copy my diplomas and scan my new signatures, so i wont get bored in france haha
+ i also copy my cds on my mac book now, this takes so much time
+ but i dont wanna miss any music in france knowing that i have it in my room

+ omg, every picture had a nice quality but this one, was the only blurry one and the best!

# this weekend there was a poolparty

+ so i went over there with christoph
+ omg this lil trip felt sooooo good, like being on holidays and going somewhere far away
+ then we bought some food, beer and later something against mosquitos
+ but when we arrived the weather wasnt that good to do some pool hopping action
+ all in all we had a good time, a nice bbq and a chilled night

+ sunday we went to poland again, getting some gas and it took 1 hour to be home
+ but i totally enjoyed this trip and we also saw an ufo :D

+ later i picked up nicole for some coffee and cake
+ i also visited my grandma and left early to get my train to berlin
+ unfortunatly the train stopped in the middle of this ghetto, waiting 50 minutes
+ i met andre later, we rode a lil and next dumb thing: it started raining
+ good that i could use the train to ostbahnhof, then i had to waaaaait again for this freakin train
+ so all in all this trip took more hours to travel than riding

+ today i started packing and i realised, that i cant take much clothes with me, damn it :D
+ and in a lil bit i will visit the new appatment of my bro
+ oh and im gone in 2 days, yeah

+ thats the ufo in the background of us ;) a full ecological house
