Mom just called me to inform that my cat died last night.
It wasn't a surprise, he was really old (almost 17) and he had problems with his organs and stopped eating. So i thought i was ready for the message, but i wasn't...
He must have been in pain, and i wasn't there to hold him or support him - i feel really bad about that.. i loved him so much.

sitting in my room now and crying my eyeballs out - and have an important presentation to make today... great ... what a day..

i miss you, old man, and i love you.. i hope you are at a better place now.

I had a new years resolution last year and i stuck to it! i was very happy with myself..

so this year i plan on finishing more of my work, send some of my work to publishers and get more of it out there for the world to read :)

AND more sports, but i tell that to myself everyyear.. glad i took up more training hours, but i can't afford a gym... and running is not really my strong suit.

also i hope to finish my bachelor in time, so i can start in september with my masters degree and my second bachelor!

got a lot on my plate - let's work hard!

Currently, there is a new show in Austria/Germany which i really like.
Normaly i don't watch casting shows and stuff, but this one is really good

The Voice of Germany is (at least i think so) really honest show with a lot of talents.. It's only just begun, i'm curious how it will work out in the future!

It seems i don't have time for my journals anymore (wheter they are online journals or my personal old-school diary at home)

but i don't have a lot of readers for this anyway so it's not that bad

my internet is currently down (i'm posting from a mall with wireless internet right now) i am curious how long i have to wait for it to work again..

training and university is doing great.. i do have a few financial problems because i can't afford anything (typical for being a student) but i feel really active like i'm doing something productive in my life.. i like it!

how are you guys doing?

Haven't posted in a while now, have I?

Right now I am at home, have 3 1/2 weeks of work behind me.

2 1/2 of them I was again at the youthmeeting in Klaffer, and it was a BLAST! I met so many nice people there, and I miss them all so much - it really hurts :(
They were all great, we had a wonderful time and I can't wait to see them again. (It's gonna be 1 year, how am I supposed to survive that?!)

Anyway, it's good that I have a lot of university work to do, at least it distracts me. When I think about it, it's only 1 year to go until i (am supposed to) get my Bachelor Degree. AH! Only 1 year..
Damnit i just started my life at university and now i'm starting my 3rd year already? It's crazy, time flies so fast (sometimes i want it to go fast, sometimes i never want it to end)

I have a small job besides my university - it's really just for some pocket money. I'm writing articles (in german) for an online portal. Check it out!

University starts again in ocotber, but i have 2 exams on the 26th and my first bachelor paper is supposed to be written until the 23rd.. STRESS!

so wish me luck!

My dear friends - life is good!

Right now i am in full-holiday-mode, i'm being creative and i'm doing (almost) nothing for university.
i'm planning on using the money i get for working in summer to finance my Frog-Tattoo(!)

the new fairy tail soundtrack is great, my stories are great and i have a bunch of wonderful books in my new room that i just need to read.

the only thing that bothers me right now is Bleach - Ichigo looks like a Power Ranger... but it wasn't one of my favourite manga to begin with, so i don't really care that much..

I sent a shortstory in for a crime-competition in March - and i just received the answer that i am part of the top 30 writers (out of over 600 entries..)

I'm gonna be in a Book! And i'm gonna get paid for it!

So happy right now... i hope i don't start to hyperventilate...

So many things happen all at once!

My wonderful 1-month-roommate from America, Arielle, flew home on sunday. She was really sweet and such a nice person, I'm gonna miss her.
Yesterday i wanted to purchase tickets for "Hollywood in Vienna" - sold out - damnit! And i really wanted to see this :/

On the other hand, i purchased tickets for the Owl City Concert in September! (Last years concert was cancelled, so i really hope this year works out, especially since i really like the new record that came out yesterday!)

2 Weeks to go until exams. Am really nervous but not at all motivated...

Money runs through my fingers.. it's horrible.

On the plus side, i'm enjoying an amazingly sweet and adventurous novel right now "Die Kobolde" (The Hobgoblins) by Karl Heinz Witzko. It's amazing!

How are you guys doing?

Went to the movies on wednesday

and FINALLY saw PAUL! my god, how funny.. And i love Simon Pegg, what a great guy.

but on friday, i went again (because hey, I'm a film student, and 3 euro tickets, so yei!) and saw Thor...

THAT MOVIE WAS FUCKIN' MINDBLOWING! GOOD WORK KENNETH BRANAGH!

already reserved a place in my DVD collection for this one..

And Patrick Doyle, what fantastic music - simply awesome..

Dearest Friends :)

i haven't posted in a while, but life has been busy these days!
I had to write a few exams at university (thankfully i did quite good) and have another one coming up next Thursday!

Also, i found a job. Writing articles for a company online - it's really cool, because i can work from home and so i can write in my holidays as well.
My manuscript is making progress, so i hope i can keep my New Years Promise and send it away til the end of this year.

Also, i'm on a CSI and Big Bang Theory trip these days. These shows are so amazing, no wonder they've been on Air for years!
The weather is also good - it seems like life is good to me once in a while! The money issue remains, life is expensive in Vienna.

A sad thing is, that my brother moved out. Only 20 Minutes away from my hometown, but still - its kind of lonely when i get home from Vienna and he is not there :(
On the plus side - i get his room! yei!

I hope you're all doing great and life to your hearts content!

Love and kisses!

Sonja


PS.: Anybody of you know the german Band "The Baseballs"? If not, listen to this and their other songs. THEY ARE AMAZING!
