blind melon



I don't feel the suns comin' out today
its staying in,
its gonna find another way.
As I sit here in this misery,
I don't think I'll ever see the sun from here.
And oh as I fade away,
they'll all look at me and say,
and they'll say,
Hey look at him!
I'll never live that way.
But that's okay
they're just afraid to change.
When you feel your life ain't worth living
you've got to stand up
and take a look around you
then a look way up to the sky.
And when your deepest thoughts are broken,
keep on dreaming boy,
cause when you stop dreamin' it's time to die.
And as we all play parts of tomorrow,
some ways will work
and other ways we'll play.
But I know we all can't stay here forever,
so I want to write my words on the face of today.
and then they'll paint it
And oh as I fade away,
they'll all look at me and
they'll say,
Hey look at him and where he is these days.
When life is hard, you have to change.
Written in 1989 by shannon hoon, and altho he tragically died on october 1995, his lyrics are brilliant and so true.

prison break

My lovely yellow bird took his chance while i was in Trier, Germany. I know it's my fault, I shouldn't have gone to Germany ;) but he managed to escape from his cage and check out my living room and the especially the curtains. Basil and Hobbes (my two feline friends) were so excited about his visit. He spent at least 26 hours roaming free. (I know because a friend of mine came and took care of the cats and didn't have time to catch Kasper)... Anyway, when i got home, he was on top of the curtain, and just came to me because he was starving. So, now, i fed him, gave him some fresh water in his private pool, and he looks happy now, eventho he's hurt his wing while 'travelling'. I guess Basil and Hobbes didn't hurt him too bad because Kasper still speaks the language of cats... Yep, he meows. Freakily weird but who the heck isn't? ;)

A little purr to you, 'grin' :) Oh, and Trier was great ;) More about that later...

21 maart in de stadschouwburg in brugge
absoluut brilliant, ik hou van die man...

the fray

Step one you say we need to talk He walks you say sit down it's just a talk He smiles politely back at you You stare politely right on through Some sort of window to your right As he goes left and you stay right Between the lines of fear and blame And you begin to wonder why you came Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend Somewhere along in the bitterness And I would have stayed up with you all night Had I known how to save a life Let him know that you know best Cause after all you do know best Try to slip past his defense Without granting innocence Lay down a list of what is wrong The things you've told him all along And pray to God he hears you And pray to God he hears you Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend Somewhere along in the bitterness And I would have stayed up with you all night Had I known how to save a life As he begins to raise his voice You lower yours and grant him one last choice Drive until you lose the road Or break with the ones you've followed He will do one of two things He will admit to everything Or he'll say he's just not the same And you'll begin to wonder why you came Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend Somewhere along in the bitterness And I would have stayed up with you all night Had I known how to save a life

little children


mmmm...
Kate Winslet, i've loved her ever since 'heavenly creatures' and i love her more with every movie she makes... Fascinating story, about ... little children or the difficulties of growing up or letting go of the past...

lynch's freaky dream world


I won't tell more (basically cause i'm still trying to find out who's who and what's what) but go and see it. it's brilliant... and scared me to nightmares ;)

"We're the middle children of history, man.
No purpose or place.
We have no Great War.
No Great Depression.
Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives.
We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars.
But we won't.
And we're slowly learning that fact.
And we're very, very pissed off. "
Fight Club
Great movie, even better book...

happy 2007

Cherish the moment, cherish the key
That leads to sane insanity
Cherish incompetence, cherish me
Don't ever cherish somebody who
Keeps on searching for a thing sublime
When all you need is inside of you
Everybody's waiting for springtime
Well winter can be cozy too
'winter' by K's choice
hope you'll have a great superb year with everything you're heart desires. And if not, try to enjoy it afterall... Enjoy the amazing santa...

lyrics from 'the player'

You never broke my heart
But you tried
You never broke a law
when you lied
I was a little kid, just a child
I was a lookalike running wild
For all our horses hold
For all the shots we called
Yeah it was you who made me the player


get this song out of my head please!!!!!!!!!!

me... me??? me!!!!!!


Last week on sunday. I didn't feel too good, toothache, headache, heartache, bla bla bla, so a very pecious friend set me an assignment for this week. He told me to ask my friends and loved ones to describe me in one word.

Here are the results. No one came up with the same word twice. So am i divers or not?

Oh and, he was right, it put a gigantic smile on my face ;)


relaxed, Vital (to my questionable sanity)!Important.Beloved.Missed.Real (as in not imagined). special, daughter (guess who that was by), flamboyant (no need to translate that do I), chaotic, perverse (with a huge grin), bonvivant, sweet, spontaneous, Assured...meaning you know who you are and don't compromise yourself. The thing with the assured thing is that people can feel your confidence and self-love the second you walk into the room and it makes everyone else want to know you and talk to you. AND that's why I love you. (sorry, couldn't resist to add the whole commentary of my dearest fiancee), HOPELESSHOPE, FAN(t)A(s)TIC, wyrd ( otherwordly, different, standig out, kindred but not the strange meaning) but my favourite of all words is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Love you all, and friends or loved ones who didn't find the time nor inspiration to answer my quest, just add it under comments.

whether it be love, lust, pain or hate

what difference does it make in the end?

lost fairy


this story started badly
a fairy lost and all alone
she searched for her fairy family
under every flower and stone
i found her sitting weeping
something a fairy should never do
but the story ended happily
when she found a friend in you
her wings began to sparkle
she knew that she was home
you know you have a fairy in your heart
you will never be alone
verses by Norma Anne Peymani

the dark, the mobide, the tragic freaks

Is it just the weather and the fascinating death of summer
or
just my fucked up mind playing tricks?

mmmmmmmmm....

how to kiss someone passionately...

click on the link, learn and practice. If you don't learn anything new, then just practice, because kissing is the most wonderful thing ever invented... ;o)

ps: thanks to my fluffy lamafriend for the link, love ya girlie ;)

that's my life

I'm old enough to be satisfied with what I have,
and young enough to still want more
Lucky enough to have been really stupid and lived to tell about it —
cursed enough to have a good memory
Intelligent enough to understand that I still have a lot to learn,
and ignorant enough to continually prove to myself that I still haven't.

apt


I haven't been feeling too good this week. Was off sick, have an infection on my vocalcords, i couldn't say 'peep' anymore, have had a sinusitis and a bronchitis (sorry don't know what those are in English, but i guess you can figure it out). I even retreated to my mummies house, just because i couldn't take care of myself. I slept during the whole week, had a lot of grogs (mmmm, i actually felt like a true pirate) and a lot of care and love from my granny ;o) . I'm feeling better now, but not quite super yet.

Where have the days gone?

This year she came to Europe to see MY tiny country for a change. We met in Paris to see Pearl Jam, i taught her Flemish (or at least tried to ;o)), we drove flem around, bought prixie, the vicious pixie, had tons of beer, loads of fun, sang songs with the Walloons, ;o)

Love you sweety, up to Seattle?? ;o))

Eddie in Paris


Liz - Crazy Canadian Chick- and me went all the way to Paris to see Pearl Jam perform. It was mindblowing, great fun and we had '"a killer" time ;o) And we both absolutely adore Eddie, because he's jummy and charismatic and cute and has a great voice and....

They played for more than 2 hours, the crowd was very 'British', in Paris. Loved every minute of it!

a long way down by nick hornby

'I get weird on my own. Confused'

Masterful novel by the way. Made me laugh and shiver at the same time.

until I find you

"If you can't forgive your mother, you'll never be free of her. It's for your own sake, you know - for your soul. When you forgive someone who's hurt you, it's like escaping your skin - you're that free, outside yourself, where you can see everything."
A quote worth thinking about.

wonderful novel as well 'Until I find you', John Irving

views






I've taken more than 500 pictures in the picturesque lake district and breathtaking scotland. So for all you guys who want to bore your brains out, or are so masochistic that you actually love seeing the views that i saw during my trip, or then again, you just want to enjoy a certain amount of alcohol and pretend you like the pictures, you're more than welcome in my mushroom. For you who are none of the above, i just tried to select the five best. Enjoy! ;o)

british fairy







I went to the uk, from south to north, from west to east, and it was breathtaking, amazing and brilliant. Saw the most spectaculair views, the terrible romantic sunsets and the scruffiest bars ;o). I didn't see pixies (cause they tend to live in cornwall and i didn't visit cornwall nor wales) but i saw fairies (cause they live in scotland). As a result, i got one tattoed on my lower back. It itches like hell at the moment, but it will be the best souvenir i ever had! (and it's made by Shane from Whitby, and he was rather cute ;o))) Enjoy.

And Henna, sweety, i know you're not into tattoos, but i least i 'm wearing the finnish rock chick panties that we both have ;o) Asolutely love them! ;o)) And since i'm Miika's fairy godmother, i thought the tattoo was quite appropriate. Love you!

british pixie



I'm going on a trip, in my fantastic wee yellow vehicle, to Britain and my blueish pixie is going to lead the way. Leaving soon, no destination yet. Only to discover the most beautiful places of scotland, the wee waters of the lake district, the mystical stones where my precious pixie was born and the best places that serve guinness ;)

i'll follow the pixiedust and keep you posted!

gans geil


i dogsitted my dog, he's 16 blind, deaf, dumb and senile, and the turtle for a fortnight. It was great fun being back at the place where i used to live for more than 18 years. But the turtle was 'gans geil' so I gave him a german flag as a punishment.

check it out, it's hilarious!
(for all the pet lover: the sticker was removable, for all the german-lovers: it was just a joke)

witchcraft

I always have known it, deep inside, but now it's confirmed. I always liked the mysterious, dark things in live. I always enjoy t'mhe rituals of celebrating the longest and shortest day. I love scotland and ireland for all their weird occult stuff they have. Always have loved the magic of witches, pixies, elves and so on... My chatname is josie, witchgirl. But i never dreamed that i'd have the power, the talent to become a real white witch.
I went to a fortuneteller (who's a white witch) and she immediately felt a vibe. She laid the cards who told my future, and the cards told that i have 'occult' powers and that there's more inside of me than i can possibly think of. Apparently i have a talent to become a witch. (she also told me that i'm a very sensitive, sweet and loving person - but that's another story).

So, from september onwards, i'll start 'witch-college'. unfortunately, it's not like harry potter, i will not go there with the train that leaves from track 9 and 3/4 but it's one evening in the week. Damn ... ;o)
.
I'm very curious, and i feel like some things are falling into place. Afterall, i've always felt weird, and i've always loved cats ;o)

Don't worry, it will take me more than 7 years to become a proper witch, more than 10 to be a very good witch ;o) and i will pratice 'wicca', so i will use my 'powers' to make the world a better place. (or at least, i hope)
