And so begins the new semester...

This semester, I am dealing very much with interesting topics.
Sociocultural lenses through which one can view Germany; portrayals and interpretation through film

I've got to read a lot for a class about literature throughout le monde francophone. I am really interested in reading Gabrielle Roy's "Bonheur d'occassion" because it takes place in the neighborhood I lived in for...

certainly a good film
gegen die wand - is a story about Turkish traditions in a modern country, but it does not necessarily reflect German culture
jaeci:
I just watched Gegen die Wand a few weeks ago for the first time. Discussion for another day smile

Das Leben der Anderen is really great.

I do not know how to make good decisions.
I have learned how to eloquently justify my repeated mistakes.

Last night, I slept alone and kicked all the blankets onto the floor. When I got up, I looked in the mirror and my face was so unfamiliar. I made tea, sat at the table, and realized the space I live in isn't my own. Some days I really wonder how the fuck this happened. confused

In the spirit of resolutions/goals ... I found a list I made eons ago. I guess we'd call this a bucket list. Here goes, word for word.

Go scuba diving
Learn upright bass
Get published (again) but not as part of a compilation... and use my own fucking name. Never happening. Nom de plume FTW
Really, really master French
Fly solo, internationally
Change a flat...

What comes next?

I have a very big decision to make
I'm trying to figure out many, many things.

I have also been inspired to begin a project that could be really fantastic. I'm doing research and planning now, making sure it hasn't been done quite this way before. If I start putting things into place, I'll share... Until then...

Yesterday, January 1, I went...

Unedited, unrefined trains of thought - reflecting on 2010 ... again.

I have been a monster
I have been a saint
I have been a survivor
A conqueror, a warrior
I am made of only secrets
They're the only thing I keep

And you.
You are built like Hercules,
You are deadly
You are weak
You are full of demons
And you will never kill...
