How to bake a fruitcake


I just realized that I’ve been blogging only in German so far. Ok, there was this one blog about  “Othering”. But this wouldn’t have happened if I didn’t have to do it in the first place. The main reason for that are obviously my language skills. It’s much harder to write in English than in German for me. But that doesn’t have to be so. That’s why I wanna practice my English a bit. Another reason is my trip to NZ next month. I’m really looking forward to that. Primarily because of my girlfriend – she’s travelling there currently - but also because of the beautiful landscape and my best friend accompanying me. Let’s face it Germany at this time of the year is a bit too grey. Don’t get me wrong I love the winter, snow and cold temperatures. But this muddy mixture of winter and not jet spring is exhausting. There are still the leftover fireworks from New Years Eve. By now all of them are frozen in the remaining snow-piles. It’s almost art, but not more beautiful than frozen doggie doo. Speaking about which how do you like my German blog? - barely joking. I think my English entries will be a bit different from my German ones. I’m gonna intent to write mainly without any big topic - just brainstorming some impressions and ideas. It’ll be more fun for me, because in my German texts I’ve already started to adapt them to the reader. Because of the smaller audience I think I don’t have to work for expectations. The good think is that if it works out one can start to read wherever he/she wants. Of course there’s gonna be a line of thoughts, but not with one intentional direction. The goal is to create circles. That doesn’t say that I’ll repeat everything, but I’m hoping topics are closing up from itself without any big management. You could also call it creative writing I guess. If I stop to write I try to organize myself while typing. That’ll be fun especially with my language skills “haha”. If you don’t understand something just go on. It doesn’t matter if you get everything – anything should be the goal. Just catching some ideas and see what they do with you. It might be a bit like meditation for you. But if you watch TV you’re probably used to it. At least on this channel I’m not switching program like TV does. There’s Fleaflo on presumably for the whole time. If not call someone for help, because that’ll mean that I eventually lost my mind and that would be awful, because I really need it to stay sane, some say. What would I do if I weren’t sane? Am I sane? Maybe not, but who is? So please just call when I sound like a real fruitcake. I’m just thinking if I should install something to prevent me from going mad. That’s maybe not a bad idea at all. What would do that job for me? I know – a reflection in the end. At least I’ve to suffer with you after typing. That’s an excellent idea, because usually I don’t read anything I write. I mean, I don’t wanna be narcissistic or so. No, honestly I love reading my lines. ^^ Another joke – isn’t it amazing how I plant them? No it’s not. Having brought so much to bear, I can finally close the case for today - time to check if I’m already nuts!

  1. The internet doesn't forget. Even if you're writing yourself and others senseless. My lacking English skills are no excuse for posting this on my former blog. As mentioned in other posts: I can't erase this because of a forgotten password. I'm writing this comment to distance myself from the content. I don't think this is necessary because of the lack of interest. But who knows who accidentally stumbles over this blog. My advice: keep on stumbling ;)
