Romeo and Juliet - and love

Folks,

just spent the whole eve in front of my TV, watching Romeo and Juliet.
It's been years since the last time and I'm amazed (scared!) at how this movie still appeals to me.



I can't even describe the sudden misery I found myself in. When the credits rolled over the screen I was feeling so grave and uneasy, so lost somehow. I didn't move for what felt like ages.

I wonder if Shakespeare truly believed in this kind of love...and I can't imagine. After all, he was an artist.
So many people claim that they love their darling so, so much - once I was one of them too. But how many of them would die for the person they claim to love so much? I believe none. Or at least I don't believe they'd really do it in the end.

Well, I wouldn't want to die for a man, and fortunately - as a single lady - I don't have to. But I could definitely live without this emotional "emptiness". But whom should I love?
Who is this man I could fall for and where am I to find him? And when? And what will happen if I meet him?
Will I change?
Will I claim to love my darling so, so much (of course without having the slightest courage to ever die for him)...?

Time will tell.

But now it's time to stop musing and let my aching head rest for a few hours.

Goodnight.

PS: Do read Romeo and Juliet, have a
look. (Did I mention that I love MacBeth?)

Struck by music, language a mess

Folks,

my mind can be described as extraordinarily empty and fabulously full at the same time. I can't even start to describe how strange that feels. It's a mess indeed.

Today, my tongue and my vocal chords seem to lack their ability and necessity of transforming impulses into speech completely. Whenever I say something it sounds horribly hollow and anything but right. Somehow. And yet it feels right. Again: it's a mess.

Despite my messy mind I discovered some very special music today (someone knew I'd like it, he just knew it) and probably it's another reason for my failing language skills. Just have a look at the following video:


Yeah, I know, it's not that hot out the box but it's amazing though. I added the IAMX website to my favorites. There you can find information on the new album Volatile Times. It's grand, believe me.

Not much else to say tonight. I'm looking forward to meeting Stephan tomorrow: he's my new bass teacher. Ain't that great? Me, finally!
Gonna spend a few moments more talking. And maybe I'll realize my language is in better shape again. Actually, why shouldn't it?

Goodnight.
