Funny Language

So I decided what every other foreigner decides to do when without work, sell what you know, your mother language. In this case there is a lot of demand for English speaking tutors, Americans. Who would have thought. Some extra cash - 10 Euros an hour isnt bad, maybe Ill increase when I have a lot. I need a , agh, calendar.

Rainbow


Fitting to be my 50th post. A beautiful rainbow appeared on the Strand as I was smoking my Cuban Romeo 'N 3 cigar. It started with the sun, wind, and rain cloud, and ended at the end of the world. A perfect bow across the sky as I watched it develope from within the sea floor. Marvelous.

So HaHa

Ive got nothing important to say right now I just wanted to get back in the saddle with writing on my bloggie. I was just at Volkshochschule in Flensburg and the German is getting more specific, more difficult, ewww thats how I like it.

Not My Words This Time


Beautiful photographs are, so you can publish a calendar or write a book, "An American wanders off" or Back to the roots or so ...
For us, so everything else around away from Germany ... virtually a guide for Americans to emigrate, or simply a diary of a restless young man with a Russian woman, should be a million eller ... Russian-American friendship on German soil ... . Hollywood is calling ...

Didgeridoo


Great instrument, hope I spelled the name right? It was fun to feel a little like Crocodile Dundee in Germany. I went with Uta because she had planned it for some time now. The instrument is like being hypnotized. Once you catch a note it reels you in, neat stuff. I want to get one and learn more about the aboriginals who use these trumpet like tools to make sound. Far out.

Hello There

All I got to say today is watch Hot Fuzz, I love that movie. So good. Anyways, bye bye. Quote: 'Nice one Doris...' 'I always liked a little girl on girl action' (everyone laughs):

Finding Work

What work is there to be found. All the same companies, ideas and mindsets. Why not something more interesting, something that gives cash and something that gives the mental stimulus longed for. Well, who knows now that the weather is colder, maybe things get more interesting and warm up to the eccentric modal of life.

Neglecting Post

I know I have been neglecting you, meine Blog Spot. Well, today was nice, it like I actual belong. I belong here in this new country and I knew from my instinct. Never doubt your instincts, they are always right.

10/24/08

My Wife

Remember that person you said you were going to spend the rest of your life with. Well, this is for you Nastia, I am not going to leave you at another damn airport again. What an idiot I was for letting you go, but now I know that you know that we both know that we are going to be together again. I love you Nastinka Linka. You are strong and good, may you always be happy.

Another Small Step

Like I said on the first blog I wrote, I believe, is that it takes small steps. A small step to get in my car, a small step to get in a plane, a small step to get on a trian, and another small step that will eventually lead to a gigantic circlec: Around The World. All it is, is walking. I guess I should write in German for now.

10/23/08

Another day here in Frankfurt. Holy crap o la. I am in Frankfurt and already I am starting to think its vacation when in fact it should be all busines until I get settled. Its great to meet new people, Mantel and Daniel are two guys that I met here at the Frankfurt Hostel and we are talking about Germany and all types of life and or culture. Daniel, the Brazilian from Sao Paolo, is letting me use his Laptop, what a nice guy. He shared a story with me last night about London and some gay bar he went to even though he isnt gay, to meet a bisexual and a lesbian only later to have made it with the bisexual girl. Good Story.

Weird Dreams

It must be the anxiousness that my dreams stray into nightmarish realms. I have had some about women and sex and violence, losses of life, floods, and hurricanes. All I want is too finish up these last weeks here with a relaxed mind.

10/3/08

The Other Journal


So its between this journal and my other that I will write my brief story. Its been some time since I have done it on my pc. Everything is going well, as best as I can plan it to go. Lying to everyone makes it hard to go throughout the day, a type of secret that only fire can tell.

Take A Picture And Refresh Your Memory



Cool, a picture has been uploaded onto this blog. Now, its not a picture that I have taken but it will have to do for now. As soon as my adventure begins, more photos will appear.

The Music Of Chris Botti

Great trumpet player. In the morning before I go for a run I play his album with Andrea Boccelli and other greats. The songs that come through the speakers and bounce off the walls are beautiful. A really sweet taste of the good life.

Little Help From My Money

It gets you were you need to go. What about kindness , does that hold any weight, only with patient people.

Health

Where are you when your health fails, not a place you want to be. The best medicine in life is healthy doses of excercise and the beautiful fruits and vegetables just waiting to be devowered...hmm...yum.

Magazine Says

Go Slow. This I cant agree with more, take time, unlike money, time is there and always will be. Time is there so you Can waste it. Waste it on a life, not a mere existence. If there is ever anything you want to accomplish dont set a boundray of when it will be finished because in reality great things never finish, they live on for generations. So bask in the delight of becoming a master in love, carpoentry, music, food, economy, politics, scuba diving, whatever.

Here It Comes

Sooner then later people always say, but are they ready. I think for the most part people are. People are what is known to become Social Creatures, I myself am a social creature, i have the need to socialize with others. Above the need to socialize is the need to actualize. One must find his or her path in the world whatever shape or form that may be. For me, its exciting new places and never a dull moment. I live in my apartment, yes, but i take large leaps when i find a crossing and not little leaps on each puddle. Be ready and make sure your legs are up for the long jump.

Summer Is Over

Alright July is nearing another end and i havent spent anytime on the beach with the sun beating down on me. At least never that i should have been stuck in such a confinemnet where im letting life be set up and i cant even watch it pass by. Well, whatever ,isnt what they sya, or should I just listen to myself. I think so.

7/16/08

Movin Out

Its nice to move in with others that knew you for a while before and yet each new time to chill with one another we can still strike up a good conversation. When you look at the future it is open or closed, it can be seen any light. The future you chose can be bright or dim but its going to be there in death or life - just do something.

Starting In Europe

OK. So today's speech is about amazing grace, how sweet the sound, saved a wretch like me. Not so notorious is the slave trade but how we lead our own lives into miserable paths. Free yourself from the old way, the way your father and mother taught you to be, the way society pushes you in the wrong direction. Follow your ideas and not your money. Follow truth and compassion. Find it in others and you will prevail.

Family Time Gets Weird

Where is it in your life where your family seem like they are form a different planet. Well thats about now for me. I am 24 years old and everything seems backwards. Who is the number one, your family right, wrong, how many times do theytell you watch out for yourself, this is a tough worl etc etc. They are just like you and have no one to watch out for them, they try to make the best of one life instead of using the Gestalt method - the sum is greater than all its parts.

6/12/08

New Potential

I am looking for something that can get me to Germany by next Fall. I want to settled in and making money already so I have plans and resources to use when I am back in my home country.

Tired But Happy

I was at Longwood Gardens this Sunday - It was great, fabulous if I should be so bold. I really was happy walking among the trees and the flowers and the herbs and the conservatory and the grapes on the vine and the quiet paths. If only I could live there year round. It was only six dollars, what a deal, to be able to walk miles in beauty and not be disturbed by jingles, phones, and shopping lines. I loved it.

Dealing With Day To Day Routine

Yea - thats how it feels at this moment and as of yesterday. Its where you are when everytime you try something new and different to make the old better, it gets worse or stays the same. God forbid it gets worse, or thats it. There are so many opportunities and new ideas that come from downturns. Who really knows where the good meets the bad and where the headaches turn into smiles? I did go to the Euro Market this morning which made me think about getting out of this forsaken land.

6/2/08

Its Been A While

Now with Graduation over but one class to finish I have finally had a breather. I stand a little taller and smell the fresh air. Hopes and Dreams are on the Horizan, and i have heard that on a clear day you should be able to see thirteen miles out to the end of the ocean from the beach. 13 mile is not far at all and hopefully my dreams will also be equally easily attainable.

5/14/08

Take A Break

I was sitting outside yesterday staying far away from class and relaxed in the sunlight. I started to read my book that i just started a few days before, A Thousand Splendid Nights from the author of the Kite Runner. So far its not bad. The big idea was understandin the world is huge and filled with things that I will never see. It is up to me to start now to finish my life with adventure. There is no time like the present. Life is set out by the corrupt and violent. Life is persued by the beautiful hearted.

In Class

It seems that everything just runs into each other and nature is working at an insane pace.

A Life Without The Other Love

All the meager pleasures of life can or cannot add up to making love with a natural equal of the other sex. Even if the moment may be fleeting or one that leaves you with exhaustion, a little treat before or after doesn't satisfy as much as love with your love. The mental capacity to reproduce and to strictly encounter love with a non bias attitude provides sustainability with sanity. Passion, slut, renegade, prostitute, idolater, loner, obsessive, diseased, and or swinger cannot label what should not be but is tried to be. The world over live in societies and boundaries that create the tension but refuse to accept nature knows best and will prevail.

4/29/08

Oh OH oH yea

A little wacky! In order to survive the day to day grind you have to be a little wacky. Just relax, get some time to yourself, and remember your ideas about life and no regrets.

Man Its Beautiful Outside

The Spring time is awesome. I just wondered, what if Spring was all the time, would I enjoy it as much as I do now knowing that Winter is inevitably going to hit?

4/23/08

In The Heart Of Forgetting

We mus'nt forget the purpose behind the effort. Ignoring the fact that this is a blog writing, it is intended to be an intermitant reminder of the purpose. I Am Walking Around The World.

Where Does The Time Go

It seems to go down the drain. One day little adventures will never be enough for a lifetime of work and boredom. Even though most take two days during the week to get a little R and R it seems nuts that we follow in suite. Why not forget about a week and think universally, lifetime, sunrise to sunset, seasons, or whatever timeline you can come up with?

4/19/08

Loud Coffee

Usually people want to find some serenity and peace with there cup of coffee and relaxing muffin. However, more and more do the kids of the common ground stop hear with their large footsteps. It gets loud at times and I wish it would be quiet. Aw, quiet, something I only experience, maybe, once a year for little while at least.

4/18/08

Time Keeps Moving

It feels sometimes that this intangible asset of time never slows or stops. It just keeps moving to the beat of your heart. What to do with time is a question that all things living have to answer. It is answered without hesitation and without remorse. At the end of time, more time continues. Who knows what is long except those who have felt intense pain or long satisfaction.

4/13/08

So it Shall come to Pass

When you feel your out of the tounament theings that bring you right back into thesame direction. Acording to Singer "it is presumptively seriously wrong". Why we go around in circles like a dog running around the tree frame after its own tail, not seeing a future but his on ass not far ahead.

4/10/08

Weather Can Change Your Mind

When it is sunny outside the rosebuds blossom and the feelings resonate through the mind and soul and body. Not only can a person feel better instantly but the Earth provides its ever loving Spring. The days that bring this type of realization are treasured and chilled for a moment. It makes things easier. Like putting oil on a canvas that has preset points.

4/9/08

No Sleep No Fun

Its all from work and the slave to the money till you die thing. My job is retarted to say the least and be poilitcally incorrect. Obviously I have enough debt that could have baught a brand new car but then again thats the last thing I need. What I need to pay the rest of my God awful bills is a career in a company that has fun, not rules like a Caeser.

4/6/08

Love Fades But Still Stains

Even when all things seem to be lost, even the relationship of your father, fun days bring back good conversations. Another call and the wine lifts from the carpet of your mind. There will always be an imprint of that blotch of red.

4/4/08

Peace Corps

The peace corps is a good option or cinduit to move through the world before i go off on my own. Not only will it provide me with another language but it can help with contacts and experience. I need all the help I can get.

4/3/08

Focus And Perseverance

Its easy to slip back into the normal routine. What we all need is the little bit of craziness in our life. Crazy could be drinking a cocktail instead of coffee or riding your bike instead of driving. Its also easy to slip back into the crazy life and let loose. Lets take it one second at a time and understand that blood still pumps through out veins. Hale to life.

Simple Pleasures Help Ease the Pain

When the tough days are gone, you never know that they are actually waiting behind the next door. What you have to do is get back to basics. Get back to you and only you. Try those things you love and those things that give you a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.

3/31/08

Lost It

When you try ot hard to make something fit you realize that it never will and the only thing that can be done is to let go. On the other side of the green fields and golden skies show light of hope. The voices can take you across the troubled waters but the beginning has to come after the end. I cant see the future. I am not here to tell you how this is going to end, I am here to show you a path for a new start. I can show you a world without rules, without borders or boundries. What is real?

3/22/08

Just a Cup Away

"Everyday brings light and the sea grants each man new hope" Christopher Columbus - Sean Connery - Red October - and thats the way life can be sometimes. Each life that passes brings a new face. The old leave their mark and the newborns create their mark. Its not that no one has walked around the world before, the important aspect to consider is, I never walked around the world. This creates the differences in each one of us. Even though things seem old or redundant, each new step has meaning.

3/11/08

Getting a Grip

Now I have passed my wife leaving. I am getting back to focusing on school and making enough money to pay back all my credit. Lesson learned, this will take a while. Probably 2 years to finish and then the time will come to make my venture around the world.

Start Small

So it will begin here with a short sentance and big idea.
