Are you one of the people who get (or got in the past) constantly told things like “why don’t you laugh a little more?” “what’s wrong with you, why are you so moody?” “why don’t you say something, you’re so quiet all the time!” – when you’re actually quite fine? If the answer is yes, you probably could be called an introvert.

Two weeks ago, I turned 25. When I was a child, I always thought I would be married and start having children by now. This lasted until I was 19 (!). It even was a factor in my choice of studies, because I always thought if I was finished quickly, and did get some work experience as early as possible, there would be more time later for family. To start early.
Now I can’t remember what the hell drove me to think something like this.

Somehow my new computer is motivating me to blog. Jap, it is. Embarrassing? Yes. Do I care? No. ;-)
I’ve gotten myself a shiny new MacBook Pro (it swallowed all my savings) a few weeks ago, but didn’t quite gotten round to use it properly. Today I installed the new OS version and discovered a few new features I didn’t know before, and I have to say – I’m quite fascinated. Errrm… maybe ‘exhilarated’ is the word ^^

Hello! I’m still out here ;-)
Just a few lines to show that I’m still keeping this blog up: my RL ist costing me all my time at the moment, so there isn’t much left for blogging. But I also have to admit that I don’t really know where I should be going with this. I even considered to switch back to writing in German to make it easier for me … But I think the English writing is too good a practice, considering some events in my near future that are still to come.

Actually I should have posted some kind of „album of the year“-posts by now, shouldn’t I? Well um… if I find the time I will do that this weekend. But first I wanted to post some findings from the internet that I just can’t keep to myself – and a short account of my recent trip to Scotland. :-)

Well, better introduce them now … because that’s my blog here, you’ll probably have to read a lot more about Idlewild, so why wait? ;P
Idlewild is a band from Scotland, quite well known there but not so much here in Germany (which is a shame, by the way). I can’t really file them under a specific genre of music, Wikipedia says it’s indie rock, so maybe that’s it, then. The band says about itself that they have come from punkrock to doing almost folk music. And that’s true – they have changed quite a bit throughout the years.

To whomever might be reading this – this is officially my first post on this brand new shiny blog. I’m German, but I will be writing in English, mostly because a great part of the music I listen to comes from Great Britain. Not surprisingly, this will be the main subject of this blog: music. And maybe a little Star Wars, books and stuff, because I just can’t stop being a fangirl. ^^
One more thing: Please forgive all my spelling and grammar mistakes, okay? ;) This is the first time since a looong time I write an English text.
So off we go. :D
