June 2017 – that lemon life

Bye for now

Hola everyone.

I hope you had a great start of the week. I just wanted to inform you that I’ll be going on a short hiatus from blogging so I can completely focus on my exams and the end of this semester. As you know, I really want to study in London after my bachelor and in order to able to do that I have to bring home some good grades, so until the 2nd of July, uni will be my priority. I’m really sorry to let you down, but I hope you can understand.

But just to give you and also myself a little something to look forward to, I’ll be back in exactly two weeks with stories about not only one, but two concerts – Paramore and The 1975 (maybe I’ll split them into two posts). The concerts will be my end-of-semester celebration, I’m more than excited and so looking forward to them.

Anyways, I hope you’re not too disappointed and I already can’t wait to be back in two weeks. Thanks for your understanding, I really appreciate it. You’re awesome. And until then I wish you an amazing time and good luck with your exams, if you like me still have to get past them. We can do it. And, as always, thanks for reading. x

Bloom

Hola everyone

The weather is warmer, the sun is shining, shorts are allowed and the world gets a little bit more colorful day bay day – that’s what summer is about. Don’t you love it? Because I certainly do. And I can see that every single day when I’m at home and look outside into our garden.

Since the past weeks the garden has been a big project for my parents, especially my mum. We recently got a greenhouse and now that summer is here, literally everything in our garden is blooming. And because I think everything looks so pretty, I thought I’d quickly grab my camera and take some pictures. I hope you like them.

Ih and besides that I hope you’re all doing well. And I wish you an amazing weekend. Actually life is quite stressful for me right now, you can probably guess why. Yep, it’s exam season. My favorite season of all (caution: sarcasm). I can’t wait for the 27th, half past 8 in the evening, then everything will be okay again. Hopefully. So, if any of you are in the same position as me, I wish you all the luck for your exams. When can do it guys, I know it. And, as always, thanks for reading. x

COLDPLAY

Hola everyone.

I know, most of you won’t probably be surprised by what I’ll be saying right now. You guys know me. So, actually it’s late at night and I just got home from a concert. And looking at the title you all know which concert I’m talking about – Coldplayyyy. I just saw Coldplay again and it was freaking fantastic.

Actually I’m currently lying in bed in my flat and I just had the idea that I had enough time still to write down my just so happened concert experience. So I got cozy in my pajamas, lied down in bed and put Zoellas latest blog on to listen to while writing to you guys. She and Alfie just moved house and as far as I’ve seen until now, the new house is freaking mindblowing. Gosh, I’m so jealous. Goals, seriously.

But yes, this is not about Zalfie and their amazing new house. This is about Coldplay and their crazy concert tonight. As you know I’ve already had the chance to see them live in Copenhagen last year with my mum and we now renewed this experience together, nearly on the exact same date (three weeks apart I think). And I completely loved it. The strange thing is that I usually don’t even listen to Coldplay, only when I see them live or my mum plays their songs at home. But apart from that, never. But as soon as they got onstage tonight, I freaked out. They somehow have the power to turn me into the biggest fan ever, they just bring such an incredible dynamic.

And you can probably guess that I cried, of course I did. But it’s not even my fault, their songs are just so sad. But I didn’t cry because I was sad, but because I was just so emotional and happy. And I looked around and saw people in the audience screaming their lungs out, hugging their friends and loved ones and just enjoying the moment. And seeing how happy people were just made me so happy that the tears just started streaming down my cheeks. But when they played Fix You I was actually really sad, because it reminded me of the concert for the terrorist attack in Manchester when they played it too. And then it reminded me of the attack and it just hit me. I still can’t believe that really happened.

But apart from that I was all smiley faces. Really. I was so happy for my mum that she could see her favorite band again and I loved watching her enjoy herself and the moment. And I just loved the show, I really did. They really know how to put on a great show. We again got wristbands that lit up during the show and whoever had that idea, you’re a genius, seriously. And of course their musical talent is just amazing, especially Chris really knows how to make a concert even more special.

My favorite moment has to be when they played Paradise and Princess Of China. I don’t really know why but Princess Of China has always been my favorite song of them and when they played Paradise all the wristbands lit up again and the whole crowd transformed into a huge rainbow. That was pure magic.

So yeah, that was my night with Coldplay. My voice is still gone, I sound like I’m an old grandma that has been smoking ten packs of cigarettes every day of her life (actually I’ve never smoked in my life, there are only a few things I hate more than smoking), and my ears are still a little bit hurting, so I guess I really need those two next weeks to recover until I see Paramore at the end of June. Honestly guys, I can just recommend you that whenever you get the chance to see Coldplay live, please go. You won’t regret it. Never. Trust me. And until then I hope you liked my post. And that you’re all doing well. Oh and please don’t hesitate to leave a comment. And, as always, thanks for reading. x

Magic

Hola everyone.

So, a few days something magnificent happened. It was about 8 o’clock in the evening and the sun was starting to go down. I’ve never told you about this but here at home, we’re gifted with some of the nicest sunsets ever. And this one a few days ago was just breathtaking.

And of course I just had to grab my camera as quick as I could and went outside and took some shots. And as soon as I looked through the lens, the whole world turned into a magic wonderland. That’s when I knew that this moment right there was perfect. I knew that I was meant to hold this camera. I knew that I love photography with every cell of my body. And as I fell so in love with the pictures, I just had to share them with you. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

Apart from that I hope you’re all doing well and I wish you all an amazing weekend. And please don’t hesitate to leave a comment down below. And, as always, I hope you enjoyed this post and thanks for reading. x

Rock In Vienna

Hola everyone.

Another day, another festival – am I right? As I told you on Friday, Saturday was a special day for me as my mum and me got to attend a festival – Rock In Vienna – and go to see Kings Of Leon live again. And holy moly, it was amazing.

First of all I have to say that I’m actually used to big, powerful crowds and festivals with over 90.000 attendees. But Saturday was a little different. Honestly, I think it was actually the smallest festival I’ve ever been to. But that didn’t change the awesomeness of the show.

The first band we got to hear was a german band called Grossstadtgeflüster, who I think did a perfect job of heating up the crowd. And after them another german band called Silbermond took over the stage. This band is quite popular in my country so I knew them beforehand and it was actually pretty cool to see them. Especially as I never thought that I’d ever see them live.

And then it was already time for the main act to come up – Kings Of Leon. I don’t know about you guys but I think KOL are a breathtakingly good band. When I saw them live first at Sziget two years ago I actually didn’t know many of their songs and I was blown away by how good they were. So I started to listen to their songs more and more and basically developed a fully grown love for their music. And when I saw that they would have a concert here in my country, I just had to go.

As you can imagine I was immensely excited to hear their songs live, especially their new album. And actually I have to say that their show last weekend was even better than the one in Sziget. We were lucky enough to be quite close to the stage so I could all actually see them and it was so wonderful to see how they enjoyed the show too and that they were happy to be here. For me that makes a concert thousand times better. And as you can probably guess their show was amazing, seriously. Caleb is an incredible singer, I totally love his voice, it’s so different and special. And the whole band was just perfect. I loved every single second of it.

The most beautiful moment for me was when they played their new song Walls. It’s a quite slow and calm song, so at the beginning Caleb was the only one singing and playing guitar and the whole crowd went silent. And that was just so magical. I held my mum and just listened and that moment was pure perfection.

But what I probably enjoyed most was how KOL acted on stage and when their show ended. You know, when as show ends I’m usually one of those people who stays until the very end, I just never want it to end. And it seemed like they were thinking the same thing. They thanked us over and over again, threw their stuff into the crowd and waved and waved and waved. And I was so shocked because at Sziget they were off stage in a blink and now there they were, smiling and waving and walking around on stage. And I adored that so much and still do. That really showed how much they liked it. They played Waste A Moment and then stayed on stage for a little after – the perfect ending for me.

God, I’m still so happy that I got to see them again and that Saturday really happened. I don’t know what I’d do without concerts and festivals. Probably curl up in a ball and cry. But thank god live music is such a perfect thing and I have the chance to tell you all about it and share the happiness.

So yeah, that was what happened on Saturday. What a beautiful day. I really hope you enjoyed this post and my little story. Oh and please don’t hesitate to leave your comments down below. And until then I hope you all had an amazing weekend and wish you a good week. And, as always, thanks for reading. x

What’s Up

Hola everyone.

I just wanted to give you guys a little update. Actually I’ve been quite busy this week, meeting friends, going to uni, enjoying the nice weather and sadly also beginning to study for my upcoming exams. But tomorrow is going to be a very exciting day as I’m going to a festival – yes, a festival.

God, I can’t even begin to tell you how excited I am. It’s called Rock In Vienna and I’m so looking forward to it, as the Kings Of Leon are the headliners. I can’t wait to see them again. I mean, their show at Sziget in 2015 was mind-blowing and I’m pretty sure tomorrow is going to be just as good, if not even better. And I can’t wait to finally hear their new album live.

But apart from the music I’m so happy to be finally back at a festival. To feel the happiness and excitement. The festival vibes. Especially as festivals have to be one of the happiest places for me. That’s when I feel free from all of my worries. And I’m happy I can again experience it together with my mum.

So yeah, that’s what’s going to happen tomorrow. And I can only just repeat myself – I can’t wait. Of course I’ll be updating you guys again on Monday with my report from the festival. And until then I hope you enjoyed this little update and I wish you all an amazing weekend. And, as always, thanks for reading. x
