oh youtube how i love you
even though
sometimes i wish there would be an old fashioned record store
somewhere around the corner
where i could listen to music coming from vinyl

sim sala bim

warme, helle strahlen durchdringen die kalte luft
nach so viel grau nun rosa bäume
geweckt von vogelgesang, der frühling ruft
alles erwacht: lebensgeister, zukunftsträume.

worte in büchern und große ideen
damals in ihren gedanken und heute in meinen
neues erkennen, erlernen, verstehn
und ambition und liebe im gebet vereinen.

life snapshot

i am back at uni. tomorrow lectures start again and life will have a routine (or something similar) again. exams are coming up and in eight weeks i am already done with my first year. somehow i feel like i just got here, but at the same time england already feels so much like home. sometimes i think about how life would be, if i was at a different uni in a different town. i wouldn't have met all the people i met, wouldn't be in my church and maybe would study something else.
well, all i can say, i am so happy to be here.

spring tunes

yesterday my dad and i went to france for the day.
we saw a lot of old houses, flowers, a beehive, storks and a rainbow.
the perfect spring roadtrip.

"I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time--waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God--it changes me."

C.S. Lewis
