My OperaSchool, Books and Christmas
Monday, December 28, 2009 2:29:20 AM
Hello World.
It feels like I haven't been writing anything since half a year. And actually it was that long since my last post. I'm feeling bad and, somehow, guilty.
But there are reasons - as there always are - and I'll explain.
So school started again in summer and it was quite exciting, because it was the last time I got new teachers. The last two years I'll have the same teachers, and then school will be over. Pretty amazing, isn't it? But it's also very awkward. Because somehow I love school. Not the homework or all the getting up way too early in the morning. But I like learning things, seeing my friends, just hanging around and having fun.
Well. With all the excitement about the new teachers and classmates, the annoying part of school caught me as well. Exams, tests, exams... the last holidays I had to read Effi Briest.. these holidays I have to read Don Carlos... And between it all there are friends who want to be entertained by me as well
So there wasn't any time to write anything in here. I think you'll understand.
Now, Christmas is already over. Since my mother got ill a few days before Christmas, we didn't really celebrate it. I got presents, of course, but we haven't met all our relatives and stuff yet. I hope we will soon!
I hope all of you had a great Christmas Eve and got many presents But most important, I hope you all are healthy and happy, and are getting ready for the new year.
I mean, I'm not. I'm a bit ill as well, but the worst is over. (The worst was a week before Christmas. I had a headache that I never had before and I really wish I'll never get again *lol*).
The last few days I was reading most of the time.
At first I read "Thirteen reasons why" by Jay Asher. I like it very much. I love books about topics like suicide. Because it makes you think about how we see things and how we can have an effect on other people without even wanting it. It's great.
But even greater was "Shiver" by Maggie Stiefvater. It's such a lovely story, and I love the main characters Grace and Sam so much. Really, Twilight was great, too, but if I had to chose, I'd chose Shiver over Twilight. I'm absolutely "wolfed" now (And even in Twilight, I liked Jacob, the wolf, more than Edward, the vampire ). I'm so waiting for the next part "Linger" now. Yeah, I'm just totally into those girly stories
There are a few days left in 2009. I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I'll try to do. My birthday's coming around as well. That's the reason why I do this now, and not for new year's eve. I guess I'll be busy the next few days.
I wish all of you a Happy New Year now (: Get through it well
Good night, guys.

"I love books about topics like suicide. Because it makes you think about how we see things and how we can have an effect on other people without even wanting it." Du söllst 'Picture of Dorian Gray' von Oscar Wilde lesen.
Und ein gut neu Jahr (das ist nicht so lange mehr).
