Life of Pi




So I went to the cinema to see this movie today with two friends.
First of all, I did NOT read the book. This is just about the movie, no comparison or anything since I can't decide whether it is close to the book or not.


The movie is SO extremely beautiful. The scenery is flawless. It is like a very long painting and with every step you go to the other side it gets more and more beautiful. Everything is just so well fitted.

The story is also great. It is not just a movie that you watch and then forget, you have to actually think about it. There are so many symbols and metaphors in it. I mean, the whole story is kind of a metaphor.
After the movie one of my friends explained to me the symbols of the tiger and the island and I explained to her the meaning of the sentence "And so it goes with god". Our other friend was just like "I'm too rational to believe his story". And that's what it's really about.

I don't want to give a detailed review of the movie, I just want to say that I really liked it and it made me think about myself and my believes. I don't believe in god, but this movie made me think about my rational way. It didn't make me believe, but it still had some influence on me.
Also I haven't cried that much during a movie for a long while. I mean, I did not cry because it was particularly sad (ok sometimes it was!!), I just cried because it was so beautiful and because of the animals and the relationship of Pi and Richard Parker.


So I hope you understand what I mean and what I want to say.
Also: Go watch the movie!!!!

Bye

2012

I really wanted to do this and then I saw other people doing it as well and now I'll do it too.
This post will be about how beautiful 2012 was to me. It will be very nostalgic, but that's just how I feel right now.

So many things happened in 2012 and I've been so blessed.
Many bad things happened, too, but that's how it works in life, isn't it.


2011 was an awful year and so did it end. But then 2012 started, a year full of chances.

I travelled. A lot. That is what I love and what I want to do more. I want to travel the world and it started when I had the chance to visit Disney World in Orlando, Florida in April.
I'm a cheerleader and I was lucky enough to participate at the greatest cheerleading event in the whole world: The Cheerleading Worlds! It was amazing and I can't believe I was actually there! Everytime when I see pictures of CEA practicing on the big football field at the Sports Resort I think "I've had practice at this exact place!!" I'm so grateful that I could be there. Thank you to my old Team which will be forever in my heart, even if we're not together anymore. This was the perfect ending of a 4 year "relationship". I miss you but I already moved on, even if it still hurts sometimes. In Falloutboys' words: Thnks fr th mmrs. ♥


 Then it was summer. And the summer was not good. Too much rain. I mean, I love the soft drizzle of summerrain but that was not summer rain that was summer downpour. For about... I don't know anymore... but for at least about a month.
But then I "travelled" again ♥ This time to Berlin, again. This is just one of my favourite cities. It is so beautiful and there are so many things to experience and to do. There are so many nice places and pretty people who wear great fashion. I would love to live there one day. Not forever, but for a few years maybe. It's so inspiring.
Also thanks to Lydia and Stine for the time there!!

Then school started again - boo! I wanted to study harder...lol oops.
And then the best thing in my life so far happened ;_;
I travelled to JAPAN!
Japan has always been a place where I'd die for to go there. And then I had the chance to go there.
It was so amazing even if I only visited Tokyo. Want to go there again so badly. It is so beautiful and I just love everything. Especially the food haha. But also the fashion!
And the girls and boys at the school we went to were so cute and adorable!! ♥ Can't wait for them to come here this year!

In November I finally turned EIGHTEEN!! Yay! That means I can do whatever the fuck I want. I can buy  everything I want and I can go clubbing whenever I want to! YAY! (I don't do that very often though since I'm very awkward)
And then I got to see Florence + The Machine live. This woman. She is just perfect. Her voice is like heaven. ;_; That was one of the best concerts I've been to I think. I mean, it was not much about the show or anything it was just about the music. And I haven't been to a concert where they played music like this/had a singer with such a voice. It was just AMAZING.

And then it was december and now it is 2013. I don't know... Everything happened so fast.
I just hope I can travel more places (I will, actually. I'll be in France and England this summer!!)
I can't wait to meet new great people and to read more great books and to watch more great movies and tv series and just everything.



HAPPY NEW YEAR ♥



And now I really have to go to bed. It's 4.30 already hahaha. 

much love
