despite


"Het verlangen naar iets dat je wilt is niet perse iets goeds. Zo kunnen voeten nogal een rare smaak hebben. Of hoort een ander niet alles wat je in zijn oor fluistert. Als je het uitspreekt zorg dan dat je het hard en zorgvuldig doet en hij zijn voeten wast."

sleep, cry, fly



One of the most irritable things is not being able to fall asleep. You know you are tired and yet your brains won't allow you to enjoy a good night resting. One can arise from bed and warm some milk, but what is the guarantee of milk allowing you to sleep? I'd say the chance is rather slim.

funds


While sitting on our brand new balcony, which has been partly crafted by us I've come to the conclusion that I'd ought to share some tunes that can establish a more satisfying feeling on such balconies and sunroofs. Prior to this event a certain woman acclaims that we are not to use our balcony. We only have two messages to give out to her: we can't be bothered and love you not so much!

a couple of D's

"Let's go out, and go have a good time, like we never had before." Of course there have been times where you wanted the night to last like, forever. (And I'm sorry for the word like, but Paris Hilton is in town so that's kind of appropriate right?) But god damnit where are those parties, where the booze is floating right into your body and the music is so damn good you wanna scream and dance like the stars are shining directly on you and you feel like you're in Grease, or whatever dance movie. Unfindable. Not that I feel like starring in that particular movie, but still. Someone stand up please and arrange a place where good music plays and fun people dance.

numbers disappearing in rain

Young love is the love that stays longest in your memory. Young love may evolve into old love, but this is not always the case. Let's say it is, for the sake of it. In which case which is better, young or old. Pure lovers will say that differences between the two ought not to occur. All others will try to prove that their young love was more energetic and powerful. Although I can only speak of young love I cannot wait for love to grow old.

essence

Don't you just love it when the sun shines and no problems arise upon your way. Treasure it and for all you know you just might win the lottery. Although this might seem a bit too lucky, you never know. And the same counts for life. How some statistics try to prove what the chance is that you get hit by a bus, you just can't really tell. There may be all kinds of people who wake up one day and say: "Today I'mma buy a bus and hit somebody". There is no statistic in that.

tea time


Relaxing on lazy afternoon Sundays is what everybody would like to do. No stress, no musts, no "no can do". Allowing yourself the answer yes to every activity you can think of is something which maybe is one of the least tense things in life, if not the least. However there are things that might endanger this opportunity. I say: "Avoid all these things".

soft coeur

Hopefully the amount of good things withdraw the amount of bad things in one's life. But if not, don't be worried. I have had the opposite of that for various times, but there are times in life where you find yourself in a situation where one happy fact counts more times than several bad circumstances in your environment. To put in a free context as one Lord Bertrand Russell once put it: men who are more afraid to take rightfully what's theirs than to benefit the world no great good is to be expected. How this probably seems totally out of context it's something to keep in mind. As for some people a positive thing in life is a pair of Pierre Hardy shoes, for others a splendid haircut, for some it's knowing you can rely on someone.

shining bloom

It's one of those days where you can sit down and think, alright this day hasn't been a complete waste, unlike some other days. You can go to class, read a book in the courtyard, do some shopping, make some homework, work at home or blog. But why, you ask? Why do we do what we do. As some people will name their parents as a reason, others will give the self-fulfillment argument. It reminds me of a scene from '2 days in Paris' where a fairy, yes a real fairy, claims that looking back on life the things that genuinely matter are nothing like jobs, money, clothes, etcetera but your wife! Well, for some of us that means husband, or the contractee with whom you signed a living together agreement.
