Merry christmas...

I was supposed to be going home to Germany today but  Eurostar has other plans... So have a very merry christmas everyone. I'll be trying to get home somehow.

Snow & show

Yesterday at uni there was snow.

Later, at my tutors exhibition, there was a show.

Finally I'm feeling better, I even slept!

It's freezing out there. I'm feeling exhausted. Only 5 more days and I'm home.

Tears for fears

Still ill. Not sleeping properly. Waaaaah...

Friday, I'm in bed

I knew I was doing something wrong...


Today I actually left the house and ventured out for a little riverside walk. I figured it would do me good to get some fresh air and do some walking.
My head weighs a ton, my ears feel funny. I almost never made it home again. So I'm back in bed.
I don't wanna be ill anymore!

Maybe this is the year...

Santa finally gets the message?

This picture lay hidden in a box for years. It is one of only 4 I have from my grandfathers once vast archive which unfortunately got destroyed after he died. I have very fond memories of him taking me around all those old castles in the Koblenz area where my grandparents lived.  This has always been my favourite of all: Burg Eltz. It's a very special place. For me anyway.
My grandfather was a photographer and we would go walking, taking pictures and afterwards he would take me to the darkroom, where we would spend hours, him always patiently explaining every little step.
I was only 8 or 9 years old and a little later he would forget. He got Altzheimers, and vanished bit for bit.
I framed the picture and put it on my desk. So I won't forget.

Poorly

I'm ill. Don't feel good at all and not sleeping properly because of stupid sinus infection when I should be writing essays. Also I realised that I'm not really writing much here. I guess I'm a bit shy... but I'll try and write more in the future.

These pictures are from back in february when our illustration group found out the tutor wasn't gonna come in so we went to a pub in Camden -via a fancy dress shop and had a fun time.

Baby ladybird hasn't moved from yesterdays honey munching spot but is still alive. Big fat ladybird is hiding I think, I can't see or hear it. Hm.

Feeding my pets

These two little fellas have been living in my chinese paper lampshade for the past month or so, making a hell of a noise. This morning they lay next to my bed, exhausted. So I fed them a little honey which they seem to be enjoying. They're still at it.
