Promise me no promises,
So will I not promise you:
Keep we both our liberties,
Never false and never true:

Appointment

Posted at 10:13 AM on November 16, 2009 Comments comments (0)

"I made an appointment for you at two 'o clock,

 Will you be able to show up?"


I believe it is a sign of being well-mannered to include two people in making an appointment, to say: to include both parties. Just issuing a paper commanding me to show up  is not an appointment. The exact definition of the word is 'an arrangement to meet a person or be at a place at a certain time'. In this case, an arrangement is not made, one is simply commanded. ...

Curiosity killed the cat

Posted at 07:45 AM on October 07, 2009 Comments comments (0)

Curiosity killed the cat, they say. It certainly did not kill me. Strangly enough... But whatever the case may be, I always want to know more about it. I want to know the 'why' behind all things. Even if no one understands the answer.


Even if the case is especially sad or gruesome. It only fuels the curiosity.


I keep wondering, why would anyone write the end to her own story. Abruptly, without meaning. A grand departure. At what point loses one interest i...

The Sisi myth

Posted at 05:10 PM on October 16, 2008 Comments comments (0)
You can ask pretty much any random girl and she will tell you she has had a facination with the tragical Austrian emperess. Most of these girls never moved  beyond the sugar-coated fairytales about 'Sissy' with Romy Schneider. Few know more than a few details about Elisabeth. They consider her to be a fairytale emperess whom died so tragically.

The funny thing about Catholicism

Posted at 11:26 AM on August 28, 2008 Comments comments (0)
Catholicism is quite a sufficient religon. In the ancient religions (except for the Egyptian one), no man could become a God. In Ancient Greece, there was Hercules, of course, but he was already half a god. No one born to two humans could be a God. Christianity however, replaced Zeus as uppergod by one almight God while the lesser Gods became saints - in theory, obviously.

A story on Anne

Posted at 02:07 PM on August 14, 2008 Comments comments (0)

A story on Anne Boleyn, written on the 6th of June 2008, out of boredom. Of course, it is full of mistakes, but since it was just a story out of amusement, I am sure it does not matter. After all, it was for entertainment purposes only.

Found this on my computer and I believe I have not posted this yet... Let me know whether I am right!

What is it with us people that we always looked up to something out of reach. No matter whether it are actors, musicians, writers or people in a high job, we admire them...

Tasks

Posted at 12:11 PM on April 02, 2008 Comments comments (0)

I read an essay on 'princess tasks' today. It is a small series of assignements, made up by Princess Skye. One of the tasks she set was writing one's own fairytale with oneself as the main character.
I think her tasks are sweet yet a bit childish. Fairytales do not connect to this everyday life of mine. Turning my life into a fairytale, story-fying it, would be silly. However, her idea of setting...

On Princess Skye's website, I read a fierce essay on Eleanor of Aquitane. The Princess considers her to be one of the powerful women from medival days. Though I have quite some respect for the princess? opinion, I must say that I completely disagree.

Satanic points

Tomorrow, I have two oral tests. One for French and one for German class. For the oral test in French, I had to hand in a text which I ill be discussing with the teacher tomorrow. I decided to go for one about Satanism (the text can be found here - it is fairly silly,  but it is still worth reading. Be my guest and have a good laugh, just as I did myself), a...

A Matter of Conversation



Sometimes, I would love to strike without even blinking. Show my claws and slash. However, I am a human being and thus I have no claws. What I have is much more dangerous: words. It is the most deadly weapon one can po...
