hoe hoe hoe

i was growing up in the 90ies. so it's only logical that home alone 1 + 2 are my fave christmas movies.
in that spirit -  here is the greeting card from me to all of you !
(and i know it says christmas, but feel free to change that in you mind to hanukkah or kwanzaa or whatever you celebrate. satan)

if it's unclear.. that's me and my cat - henrietta berlioz! you can see how terribly excited she is about the xmas hat! :) and yes, im that kind of a person who does that! and i like it!

not a dick in a box

i found this photo on friend's facebook.

i'm mesmerized by it and i have an urge to share it with more people than just my fb friends. for a change - no boobs!

wantz its!!!

want. this. so. bad.

if anyone know where i can buy this - let me know. (oh yeah.. and it has to be in DD, otherwise, there's no use for me).

copy cat

Some of you know that I'm not an only child. I have a big sis. Probably due to me being away for quite some time now I'm starting to go completely bananas with missing my family. My sister, niece, parents, cat. Ok, friends as well.. but today I wanted to talk about my sister.

Growing up with 7 years difference between us surely wasn't ideal for her or me. I was a pretty annoying child (guess some things never change) and I adored her, which of course meant I wanted to hang out with her ALL THE TIME! And sometimes I was pushing so hard our mom eventually caved and forced her to take me to the movies with her and her friends. I loved it. She of course hated it.

My sister's name is Maja. Probably all Europeans recognize this name thanks to the 80ies (or 70ies??) cartoon - Die Biene Maja

So one year when she was already studying at faculty she wanted to be a bee for Halloween. And mom made her an awesome costume. What happened next year? I squeezed myself into it (we are very different looking - while I'm short and curvy she's tall and model-like).

that's me in the first year of my high school :) in retrospective.. this looked so much better on her.. i really shouldn't have forced myself into it :) i remember i had to wear two bras to squeeze my boobs enough for the zipper to close

But I think this is something all us 'younger ones' go through. Our older siblings are our role models. They can't do anything wrong. And we want to copy every single thing. I believe this kind of acting is even worse when you have a sibling of the same sex. You just want to be a little copy of your older sister/brother and they want to do anything to avoid you :)

Thinking back on our growing up I'm not surprised she was always into some new band or style because it was my standard routine that I was into whatever she was. I remember being around 6, 7 and I was 'listening' to Guns N' Roses. I think I only knew 'November Rain' but my sister was into them and so was I. And then Nirvana. And then rave. I will never forget one time.. when we were with some other girls her age. And I was 11 maybe? And I didn't understand why the hell were they all laughing at me when I said I'm into raves. Because I did own a pair of shiny silver pants!

But I was never really ashamed of admitting that I'm practically copying everything she did. Because in my eyes she was totally the coolest person ever so why would that be bad. Looking on the past now, I still don't think it was bad. In fact I'm kinda grateful for her trying always to escape from me and searching new things, because I certainly learned a lot more than I would on my own. Especially when it comes to music. I will always feel in debt to my sister, because when all these cheesy boy bands came along, she was old enough to hate them (except 'Take That'.. they were her weak spot. But I think better them than 'Backstreet Boys') so naturally I hated them. I am proud to say I never owned a CITA poster or had a crush on Nick!

The summer I finished my 4th year of elementary she and a friend of hers went to a language course to L.A. Returning with (to me at least) sick ass new wardrobe she also brought a Alanis Morissette CD - Jagged Little Pill. I listened to that religiously for months.

After that I slowly started to realize I wanted my own identity and was trying to find my own cup of tea. It was a rocky road :)

Much later, when (I believe) she was over trying to get away from my never ending stalking and was more into broadening my horizons, she got me to listen to The Beatles (not 'The Yellow Submarine' mainstream stuff, but more their not so famous things which in my opinion is the best), Queen and other epic music.

So why am I talking about all this today? Well.. I'm feeling a bit blue and I'm spending the day with 90ies music in the background.. and I came across this video I really like. Song? It's ok. But video I really like. Don't know why actually. It's not brilliant, it's not that original. Maybe it's just the feeling I get when watching it, because it reminds me of my sister :) 

That's it for now. Just 8 more days and I'll be at home, hugging the shit out of everybody :)
And sis.. if you're reading this - I love you!

take it off
