Strange Situation (Lia)

Last night in our local Italian restaurant we sat across from a couple. The woman had the facial features exactly like a Renaissance Virgin Madonna.

It was such an odd situation to be watching the Virgin Madonna eat her pizza Funghi.

funny (Sara)

May is finally showing its sunny side and a lot of guys from my school walk around in shorts. My friend looked at all of the hairy man-legs and made a comment, that really cracked me up:

Oh look, they are wearing nature socks!

Hmm… (Sara)

While doing my homework today, i wondered, why we always assume, that Martians are going to come in metal spaceships… Why metal?

Making a Wish on a … (Lia)

What do you make wishes on? My list holds the traditional things: birthday cake candles, shooting stars, ladybugs, four leaf clover. There are the whimsical things: first star I see tonight, full moon, rainbow. Lots of animal sightings warrant a wish: whale, dolphin, iguana, sea turtle. And lastly, some German things: a passing chimney sweep, a fallen eyelash.

Oh Noooo!! (Sara)

Yesterday afternoon after our Big Band practice ( in case you don’t remember, I play the alto saxophone ) we wanted to go to my place and on our way to my house we saw a trombone standing all alone at one corner leaning against a wall. We thought about taking it with us, because it’s not good to let a trombone standing alone in the street, but then we thought, that it could belong to someone we might not know, and so we decided not to take it with us.

At nine thirty in the evening our lead trombonist called me and asked me in a very (very) desperate voice if I had seen his trombone. Oh Nooo!  I was so angry with myself, that I did’t even look into the case. I really wished that I could turn back time at that moment. I talked to him a little while, trying to make suggestions how he could find it. He thanked me, we said goodbye and I went to bed.

Next morning in music class:

Lead trombonist enters the room. Everybody looks at him. He had a big smile on his face!! Yaay!

He told us that he had gone up and down the street again, and it turns out that someone had dropped the trombone off  at the turkish grocerie store around the corner. I love Lübeck!

Monday Morning Meltdown (lia)

Can’t find my bag anywhere. My mind travels back only to the place in time where we were living together in harmony. The bag hanging on the chair in the bedroom. Now it is gone and no amount of searching is bringing about the yearned for reunion.

Doings of the day. (Sara)

Saturday:

- got up at 9 o’clock to buy paint and a paint roller

- started to paint my cupboard “chessnutbrown” (at that time I was happy with the color)

- painted the whole cupboard (not including the doors)

- went to sleep in my bed (my room still smelled a bit like paint, not much, but still enough to get annoyed about it)

Sunday:

-got up at 8 o’clock (don’t ask … I know it’s early for a teenager.)

-startet to paint the doors and wondered why there was less paint then I remembered being there Saturday evening

-painted one door and noticed that there is not enough paint to paint the very necessary second layer (I’m suspecting a paint loving hamster, that creeped through my slightly ajar window in the night.)

- I am really p*ssed now, because it is Sunday and that means that there is no opportunity of buying new paint, which means that I am stuck with a giant cupboard in the middle of my room, with newspaper around it and all of the rest of my stuff crammed in one corner of my room (including my clothes !) and there is nothing I can do about it.  Grrrrr!

cupboard-painting is a nasty business. paint loving hamsters ,too.

If I could travel back in time… (Lia)

… I’d tell my ten-year-old self to dance faster, my twenty-year-old self to fall in love more slowly, my thirty-year-old self to be more impulsive, my forty-year-old self to be less plagued with worries, my fifty-year-old self (last year) that all is just right…

Now, if I could travel forward in time… I wonder what I would say…
