Inexorably Great - My English Matura

Montag, den 8. Juni 2009

Wow, so that was it. That was really it. The Matura; at least the written one. In retrospect, I really don’t know what I was so scared of. But to be fair, I wasn’t really anxious before taking that English exam. And tada, proves I didn’t have to. 100 points out of 100. A humble […]

Little luscious tidbits

Dienstag, den 26. Mai 2009

Drafts are… well, drafts. Sometimes they are not supposed to be published. But these drafts here that I’ve saved on Wordpress, they should be seen by the public, trust me. Enjoy the elaborate look behind the scenes of my life, basically, for here’s what I’ve never ever published:
From an entry I started writing on September 10th, […]

The five month drought

Samstag, den 23. Mai 2009

Some sort of intellectual drought, apparently. Seriously, why is it I have these creative highs during which I basically can’t contain myself from writing dozens of entries every single day, and then again a complete drought hits me and bam, it’s over. It’s over until five long months later, I’m suddenly back again. Back in […]

Define stress using only one word…

Dienstag, den 20. Januar 2009

… right, that would be school. Phew, I just wanted to apologize for not writing in such a darn long time. I’ll be writing something soon. Maybe on the weekend. At least I’ve got a whole lot quite a few things to tell you all… look forward to fresh and optimistic entries! It’s 2009 now, my friends, and that means […]

… and in that day, her whole life

Samstag, den 27. Dezember 2008

Due to my long-lasting admiration for Michael Cunningham’s extraordinary book The Hours, which started several years ago when I discovered the stunning movie of the same title, I have decided to dig deeper and analyze this literary masterpiece, looking closely at its actual origins; Virginia Woolf’s powerful 1925 novel Mrs. Dalloway, and the genuine life […]

Of smitten cats in heat…

Dienstag, den 23. Dezember 2008

… and much more. Is it really Christmas already? This year I didn’t really get to enjoy the time that comes before Christmas. Today when I set up our gorgeous Christmas tree (thank God my mother let me join her when she went to buy it - she would have bought a small and crippled one out […]

The sweet scent of freedom

Freitag, den 5. Dezember 2008

Yup, it’s me again. And once again, it’s Friday. And what a Friday it is. A Friday that I’ve been so desperately waiting for since early September - that’s when we found out about all our test dates in the different subjects, and the prospect of having to take a French and a Math test in only […]

It doesn’t get any more exciting…

Mittwoch, den 3. Dezember 2008

… than this, it appears. Why am I blogging so much anyway if everything I’m writing seems so… well, irrelevant? I have no idea, I just love blogging, once again. It’s like a phase, and that very phase could be over any day now. So relish what you’re getting. The fact that my life consists […]

To get this off my chest

Montag, den 1. Dezember 2008

My life isn’t exactly as exciting as a Hollywood blockbuster, and to be honest, the past few days aren’t even worth writing about. That’s because I don’t intend to bore you, dear readers (at least not intentionally, that is). Which is why I’ll just write down a few things I so desperately need to get off my […]

Qu’est-ce qui me fait oublier?

Freitag, den 28. November 2008

Bonjour, mes amis. Si vous vous démandez si vous êtes encore sur zynisch.at maintenant, je peux vous assurer que … oui,  vous êtes vraiment en train de lire la plus récente inscription dans mon journal en ligne, et c’est en français. Pourquoi ça? Alors, comme presque tout le monde sait, ma classe écrira le premier contrôle du français […]
