Tonight’s the night

… where I don’t have much to write about. Well mainly I’m knackered. I’ve done most of the mum-preparation flat-cleaning tho which is very nice. Only the kitchen left to do, and vacuuming the bedroom. Well, and hauling out bags full of rubbish (including the previous tenant’s curtains, which I kept for over a year to put on my pretty yellow carpet when I had builders round. :)) ).

Tomorrow we’re going to play volleyball after work, which should be fun, I enjoyed it last time we did it. Yeah and I think that shall be all for today, sorry. Must have dinner now and then bed. Nice, comfortable bed. 🙂

Clarissa home alone & road trip plans

This was the first week-end I’ve had at home for quite a while (after three consecutive week-ends in Southampton, Athens and Paris, respectively). It has been very nice, the main benefit being long lie ins on my expensive mattress. 🙂 More »

Music, I like it.

Placebo vs MJ

I used WP’s picture-upload thingo for this. Not particularly impressed. Anyway, I meant to say: Placebo are currently exactly 1,300 tracks ahead of MJ. (this is from my last.fm you know).

I will tell you more about MJ and Placebo whenever I get round to talking in detail about this coming summer. Cuz that will be totally awesome! :]

[edit next morning] Actually I think I’ve told you about most of the summer. Only addition is: Placebo @ Shepherds Bush in May!!!! :yay (does this count as today’s blog update? *hehe*)

My kinesiology experience

Today I went to see a kinesiologist. Not something I’d usually do, but she’s a colleague of mine and I thought there was no harm trying. I have an itch you see. I may have mentioned this on here before, not sure. Anyway the itch has gradually been getting worse since January and developed into a pretty annoying ekzema. Something needs to be done. Since my NHS doctor has been unhelpful so far I thought I’d explore new avenues. Here’s how it went! More »

Still offended

by stuff like the current media reports of the first encounter between Carla Bruni-Sarkozy and Michelle Obama. Like here (this is the most respected news magazine in Germany!): “Which one is the prettiest? Michelle Obama was wearing yada yada yada while Carla blablabla.”

Seriously!? So we’ve got a former model slash singer (slash trophy wife), and a Harvard Law School graduate with an unprecedented fundraising track record, among other things. And we’re comparing them on the basis of what they were wearing!? GRAH!!!!!! [I have nothing more to say]

This is cute

My bank wants me to create an investor profile. More »

Love the Internet!

Oh hai! This could become “BEHA” (blog every hour April). Of course it won’t. Just another fun (to me) chat transcript from Omegle: More »

Welcome to BEDA @ Clarissa Blag

BEDA is short for “Blog Every Day April” as inspired by Maureen Johnson (she’s a writer and fun and I follow her on Twitter). I know I know, what was I thinking, I’ll never manage to keep this up. Well, I’ll try anyway, though I expect some of my entries will be very short (longer than a “tweet” tho hopefully), and I may also write some ahead of time with scheduled publishing (like this one, heh). But since I have WordPress on my iPhone I should even manage to blog when I’m on holiday with my mum over Easter. More »

Athens! and stuff (Paris below)

Oh hai! Yeah so I said I would update after my return from Paris. I was gonna do a super-double-entry at first, but then figured that wouldn’t work too well because I need a separate Paris entry for my list’o’trips and all that. So I decided to go in reverse chronological order, which works out great cuz readers will read this one first anyway, and then those who want can read the Paris 😡 one too. Tho you should cuz Paris is amazing and I love it. More »

Paris Entry

Yay supershort Paris trip!!!! I will explain how this came about. More »
