Playing around

I just spend about an hour on changing the blog design, trying different colours, text sizes etc... This dragged on more and more, because I discovered a really cool website, where you can get the most beautiful blog designs. It's called The cutest blog on the block. In my opinion, the title really hits the point ;-)
But now I have to get up and out. We had about 5 cm of new snow last night and now everything is melting, so I have to find the drains on the courtyard and free them from snow and ice, otherwise, the melted snow can't go anywhere. I haven't seen so much snow in the winter in the last ten years or so... At the moment, everybody has stopped being excited and thrilled and has come to terms with the weather. But we're close to being annoyed of and swearing about it.

Still wondering...

...does everything that I write down here, have to make sense? Hopefully not ;-) At the moment, I'm smelling like a bakery, because I just took a egg liqueur cake out of the oven. That's a cake my mother baked a lot when I was a kid and everytime I eat it, it reminds me of wintertime in my childhood. It tastes really good - it includes quite a lot of chocolate ;-) Actually, I wanted to write about the movie I saw on thursday. I didn't really want to go to the cinema, because I had to get up early the next morning, but my friends finally convinced me to come with them and I have to say, I'm glad they did. We watched "Sherlock Holmes" and it was gorgeous. I laughed a lot, it was thrilling, fast and ironic. Robert Downey Jr. did a really good job as Holmes and I loved Jude Law as Watson, because in this movie, he wasn't so cocky and plane as in other movies I've seen him in. All the actors act very british in my "prejudiced" eyes and I just like the black humor of british movies. And, on top, everyone is dressed very elegant and looks quite impressive. Hopefully, there will be a sequel.

P.S.: I'm working on my reviewing skills, too.

Okay, that's it. I finally dared to do it - as you can see. Create a blog and write. Or better: trying to write. As for my english skills becoming worse after leaving school I decided to train them. I hope this good intention will last longer than just a few weeks... I'll do my very best. Just a few more words about this experiment: I hope to fill this with thoughts about things I've recently read, seen or experienced and like you to join me in discussing this stuff. So please feel free to comment!
