eternal sunshine on the spotless mind

that great feelings only need small moments
that great fears only need small doubts
that great hope only needs a little smile
that great pain can be caused by great love
i believe.

Please excuse me but I got to ask
Are you only being nice
Because you want something
???
Because of how you respond
Because you’d not end up in this song
I never gave you an encouragement
And it’s doing the end?
The more you try to erase me
The more the more
The more that I appear
The more the more.
The more I try to [...]

i had so much fun last night and best of all – it came totally unexpected. christoph a guy whom i got in touch with on openbc is spending his last days here before returning to germany (and continuing onwards to australia) called me last night and asked me to hang out with him. first [...]

“each of us puts in one little stone, and then you get a great mosaic at the end.” (alice paul) – i put in yet another stone by making the decision to move abroad once again. things are somewhat on the run now, but it’s starting to look good. yes – i will leave (at [...]

It already seems like it was many years ago but it was only 2 weeks ago that I was finally at Crater Lake, and with my dear friend Carine, just as we had always planned it. Whether in the clear, bright light of a summer’s day or lit by the delicate hues of the sunrise, [...]

i came to our summerhouse 4am on tuesday morning, after a long and emotionally tiring day. there was so much light, you really couldn’t tell the difference between night and day. it was a weird feeling to be in finland again, last time i was here six months ago in winter. now it is summer, beautiful and warm summer.

yes, there is beauty sometimes.
Wear sunscreen.
If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and [...]

Blue sky when you gonna learn to rain?
And let yourself go blue for once
And let go of the weight you’ve been carrying
In this house, no one goes to sleep for days,
Its like were working on a mountainside
Trying not to slide,
Into the ocean.
I believe.

But
would north be true?
Why should I?
Why should I cry
for you?
Dark angels follow me
Over the godless sea
Mountains of endless falling
For all my days remaining
I believe.

Kuule kuinka se sanoo
jätä lapsenkasvosi tähän
paina kätesi multaan
jää odottamaan valonnousua
murhe tässä kuin köyhyys
kuin lupaus autiomaan
kangastusten kalkki
eikä kipu mene pois
Kirjoita se hiekkaan
hiekka pitää sanansa
kirjoita se virtaan
vesi matkaa kotiinsa
kirjoita se ilmaan
linnut nousevat siivilleen
kirjoita se muistoihin
ne haarautuu kuin tie
Katso missä on viisaus
joka rakensi kaupungin
kirjoitti kirjastot
täyteen yksinäisyyttä
kun erämaan tuuli
nuolee jokesi uomaa
ja mahtavat lauseet
kuivuu kitalakeen kii
Kirjoita se valoon
valo matkaa tyhjyyteen
kirjoita [...]

oh yeah one more thing: even if people sometimes still give you weird looks if you’re austrian and rooting for germany we still had our share of the fun. and probably it was more than soccer, the joy, the feeling of meaning something to the world again is just freely floating through germany and really, [...]

it was just a weird moment today, i drove back to the city from an interview and came to a crossroad. the traffic lights were out, so a cop was taking care of the traffic. i’ve probably never ever seen somebody taking a job so seriously as he did, slowly moving his hands in opposite [...]
