Practise at home




Remember Jurassic Park, the dinosaur flick with the that Ford guy? Remember the Raptors In that movie? The Velociraptor (meaning "swift seizer") or short "Raptor" has a very distinct way of moving. You could say it has a certain walk. Honestly, the hollywood filmmakers probably invented the way the raptor slowly moved with arched backs and clicking razorsharp nails, but I'm just trying to paint you the picture here. 
Ladies,
 by wearing high heels i understand you're also trying to be the swift seizer. But guess what: If you can't walk on high heels, you are not swift, and you won't seize nothing but laughs from people on the streets who are seeing you moving around like a goddamn Velociraptor!! 
Its funny how people can take something so sexy and make it look like a medieval deathtrap.
So..practise, at home, with trainingwheels if you have to...



Create




This isn’t about knitting. It’s about thinking you can’t. But you can, but you don’t, cause you won’t, cause maybe it doesn’t interest you… and that’s gravy, but like I said…it’s not about knitting. It’s about making things your own with ya bare hands. I’m not talking about manufacturing your own shirts and knickers , I’m saying buy stuff and make it yours, or combine it in a way only you can.
Some people shout: ‘I’m not creative’. True! Cause that part of you is dead! Or dying slowly, ripe for tomorrow’s obituary. And you’re killing it with denial and interpretations like ‘I’m not creative’. So that means, you’re a murderer,  and need to be sentenced to at least a year of creativeness, which brings that part of you back to life, thus annulling your sentence.

Well, we ain’t  all that creative as, for instance…a painter, such as the lady I met in the train who was pimping her jacket by knitting a new neck. But, we don’t have to be…I guess I’m just trying to say…don’t be designed.

The answers: the beach, the dunes, the woods, Amsterdam. Finally the wheather allowed us to enjoy what we came here for. 4 months till summer and counting...

Daily Fraîme




After surviving christmas and newyears. A message from Berlin, one of my favorite places to be.

Daily Fraîme



The confusion, the cold, no information on the boards. Too many people in one place so no cell reception, no buses, planes or trains, rivers freezing over, so no boats, mail delivery down....

And all this, just to get us to talk to eachother?

No really, this was just a small peek into how it would all be if we would be deprived of electricity and technology here in our little country. Man, i've seen people loose their minds in thinking they'd be home an hour later. I won't say it's all good...but it aint all that bad either....

At least the girl sitting in front of me on the way home could still smile....
