Monday, and the week can start again. I have to say I am definitely to over 150% relieved. Last night I received an e-mail that absolutely took all the pressure and concern away and let me be and feel more positive. For the last couple of two if not more weeks I had had trouble reaching a friend of mine. Not knowing whether she's save or already back in Los Angeles or stuck somewhere in between Tehran and London or whoknowswhere...I just was hoping she was alright. The fun part was that I received one of those silly mass e-mails that you "must send on" in order for your dreams and wishes to come true, etc. So, I got one of those and not being a believer of such messages but liking the message itself and its words of wisdom I thought it was well-worth sending the message out so people would get inspired. My wish came true. I had to laugh when I got her message. Well, first of I was happy to hear from her after a long time (needless to say, she's back in L.A. save and sound, but extremely exhausted and frustrated), and second I just had to laugh because as a non-believer in such e-mails it sure worked. All I can say is Thank You. Really. Now, I can sleep tight again and continue living life as it all comes along.
My plans for today are:
#1 Going out in a few minutes so I get to enjoy some sun & fresh air.
#2 Grocery shopping is a must today.
#3 I need a new book. Any suggestions?!
#4 Wearing light clothes with feel-good fabrics so I will definitely feel
absolutely gorgeous while walking around in this (wonderful) heat!! This is something to look forward to, how silly.
#5 My iPod is ready again...time to walk around and dance to some music...local artists are the best anyway. Check out www.sevensoul.ch
#6 Buying a Barcelona map, one that doesn't break apart.
#7 It's Monday...either movie or TV night. I think I'll go for the latter one. Cheaper!
And yes, I think this is pretty much it. Seven things to look forward to today. Can't wait. Oh, did I mention it's my day off?! What better way to start the week, huh?!
Have an absolutely perfect day!

Happy Weekend
I had an amazing Saturday!
The city's annual old town festival was the major factor bringing us all joy and happiness. There's this big argument about its name though. I still call it old town festival, others may call it differently since its whole "theme" changed this year. However, its major highlights like all the live music performed and food stands etc are still in the old town and since it's always been the old town festival I continue calling it that way. That's just me.
As mentioned it's been great...I listened to my favorite Swiss artists, ate good and unhealthy food, drank fun and very gross looking stuff with my oldest friend and ended up going home around 2.30am I believe. Lost track of time. It was fun. It was a long day. It was all worth it. Even the rain that tried to screw things with us didn't ruin anything. The rain left and the sun came out making our faces look red (or was it the wine associated with the whole party?! - who knows). It was a memorable day!
Having finally time to catch up on some blog reading I came across "Rules to live by+Life etiquette", the title of Just a Girl in a City's blog. Trying to follow these so-called rules. At least for the next couple of summer-like days!
Hope your weekend is fantastic!
Mine sure was, well, still is...I'm heading out today, going to a friend's house so we can start talking about our upcoming Barcelona trip. I'm so excited.
And...besides festivities and blogs and Barcelona...I'm also trying to change my blog's layout a bit...haven't figured it all out yet. I'm just way too lazy at times to sit down and work on it...It seems as if I'm just writing about it...typical!

Quick and Easy
Just sad. Time passes way too fast and knowing that most of us grew up with MJ's music and that we still listen to them and automatically remember good times...wow, just sad. That's life ladies and gentlemen...life in its pure and very vital form.
Nonetheless, it's Friday and it's the last day of this awful working week. Glad to know I can sleep in tomorrow, relax and then enjoy some festivities and live music. Can't beat that mood. Yes, it sure has changed. I'm looking forward to it now. I need this. We all do at some point. So, happy early weekend! Enjoy it!!! I sure will.

Open Eyes
Thanks to findstuff22 on photobucket I get to enjoy this day today.
I want to be the girl blowing bubbles and not having a clue what the future brings.
My thoughts are all clear now, and believe it or not, certain not-so-funny issues aren't solved yet but additional issues apparently are known and heard about and there's going to be a long and heavy talk about this. Oh well, whatever that means...we'll see. All I know now is that the girl with the bubbles is my daily inspiration - at least for today.
One more day and we can call it a heavy, dramatic, and confusing week. The city I live in has a huge party going on this Saturday and even though I'm so not in the mood for any festive activities I'm actually looking forward to it. Live concerts of famous Swiss artists and all that for free...who's complaining?!?! Besides, have I mentioned our artists are eye candies of their own kind. Yummy.

Wednesday
It's getting nicer out there. At least when I look at the weather. At work, it's pretty much the same tense situation although the manipulative one is gone for two weeks. Just knowing what happened makes me so furious. Though, I won't write about this now. I won't write about anything now. It's Wednesday and I wanted to share some pictures...random stuff...nothing special.
Italian candy (super addictive) we have displayed on our counter. It's not the best shot but its colorful power is overwhelming...you just want to dive into this sugarland.
French "five o'clock tea" specials (a gift from my mom's trip to France)...deliciously good-looking and trust me when I say you want to have these for breakfast, lunch and dinner...and sometimes in between as snacks, too.
Easter Egg sugar stuff left over from this year's Easter I guess. They won't go bad but they looked so sad, so I chose to took a different shot here. It sort of looks like I painted this. Nice.
Have a terrific day!
