The room tag

Hola everyone.

As I was thinking about a new post, I realized that some time passed since I last held my camera in my hands. So I thought why not show you around my room a lil bit?

.

I have to tell you, I’m totally in love with my room. I worked hard to get it to look the way it looks now. And I’m really proud of it. It’s full of pictures, postcards from my trips around the world, concert tickets and other memories and highlights of my life. And of course, my cat sharing the room with me is just a plus to that.

.

Enjoy the little tour and if you want to, I’d be happy to hear your opinion about my room, I’m very curious. Thanks for reading. x

 

 

Who am I?

Hola everyone.

I’m an introvert. More specifically, I’m an INFJ, which means I’m Introverted, iNtuitive, Feeling and Judging, according to the Carl G. Jung’s and Briggs Myers’ theory of psychological types and test I took to find out, which personality type I belong to.

.

So what does that mean exactly?

INFJs are described as complex characters, who often tend to be idealists. Furthermore, they are doers as well as dreamers, which I can totally support, as I probably spend like half of the day dreaming about things and building up different scenarios in my head. It’s also said, that INFJs are deeply concerned about their relationships with the people in their lives and the world in total, but as true introverts, they often just have a few friends, but those are the ones, they really trust completely and the ones, they want to keep forever (so true).

.

Onto that, INFJs are said to be highly empathic and to have the clearest insights of all the other personality types into the motivations of others, for good and evil. At this point, I have to say, that I’m shocked how true this all is. I often feel what people want or how they feel, I don’t even have to ask them what is going on inside of them, because I already know.

.

The thing, that completes the personality type description for me and gives me the confirmation that I am really an INFJ, is that for people of that personality type self-expression comes more easily on paper, which ends up in good writing skills. And this is so damn true. I remember that when my mum and me argued, I always went to my room and wrote her a letter in which I expressed all the feelings I had. They often were like two pages long. I was 12 when that started. And today, I text my mum after an argument – I can’t say she likes to read them all, but I just have to write it down.

.

Another thing that comforted me in all the past decisions I have made, is the part when the typical hobbies and the most fitting jobs are presented. I love writing, listening to music, taking pictures and reading books and those are the exact hobbies which are in the personality description. This leads us to the jobs, where positions like teacher and photographer and writer and jobs in the public media are written down and it couldn’t be more accurate, seriously. A few years ago, I wanted to become an English teacher, but that changed after some time and today I want to become a journalist and maybe an author, if it all works out like I want it to. And onto that, I’ve fallen so deeply in love with photography and taking pictures and holding my camera in my hands, that I’m dreaming about selling my pictures one day. It’s so incredible for me how perfect this all is.

.

All in all I couldn’t be happier to have taken that test, as it fits like a perfect pair of jeans. Before I took the test, I didn’t really think that the result would be that accurate. After all, I have to thank Will Darbyshire, who talked about the test in one of his videos and made me curious about it.

.

I think it’s fascinating that today we can take tests to find out how our personality works and also how the people around us work on the inside. The test really helped me to understand myself more. I know that I’m an introvert, that I would always chose watching a good movie over going to a party, that I can express myself better in pictures and written texts and that I’m highly sensitive to the world around me, but now I know, how all these things work together and why I am the person I am. And to be honest, I’m really happy that I am the way I am today and I’m glad that my parents and friends and all the past experiences and events have brought me to where I am today and have shaped my personality to how it is now.

.

If any of you want to take the test, I’ll leave the link at the end of the post, have fun with it. And if any of you want to watch Will’s video or want to find out who he is or simply want to watch some of the most inspiring videos on the internet, I’ll also leave the link to his channel down below.

.

If someone wants to talk to me about the personality types or has the same personality as me, I would be more than happy to talk to you and exchange thoughts and experiences. I’m here. And if some of you actually take the test, I would be very glad to hear about the results, as I’m really interested in the the test and in getting to know you all better. But until then, thanks for reading. x

Blurryface tour – Twenty Øne Piløts

Hola everyone.

As you all probably already know, I’m completely addicted to concerts. The last concert I went to was on the 6th of February in Vienna with my mum. And as promised, here is my Twenty Øne Piløts concert experience.

First of all, I need to tell you that I’m still not over the concert and I think I will never be over it, like I’ll never be able to get over the Ed Sheeran concert of 2014. And I would seriously do everything do be able to go back to that evening. To be in the crowd, at 9 pm, waiting for them to come on stage.

It was unbelievably amazing and one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to – and trust me, I’ve been to MANY concerts. The thing is, there aren’t many bands out there, which are as special as Twenty Øne Piløts. Their music is breathtakingly good, even better live, which I thought couldn’t even be possible, and they created such an amazing vibe playing their songs on that stage. The crowd went totally crazy as soon as they got on stage and that didn’t change till the very end when Tyler and Josh let us scream and cheer for them for three minutes straight.

.

Besides that, I loved how they interacted with the crowd. They had some kind of metallic boards which they put directly onto the crowd, with Joshs drum set on it and Josh himself too, of course. The same with Tyler. That means the crowd literally held both of them while they were playing the songs. Incredible, right? And onto that there was this moment when only Josh was playing on his drums and everyone was looking for Tyler, who had apparently left the stage. So we were all looking for him. And suddenly everyone had this shocked face and people started cheering and I noticed that they were facing the back of the arena, so of course I turned around too and there he was. Standing on some kind of metallic tower right behind us all, in the middle of the crowd. It couldn’t believe my eyes, he was like 3 meters away from me. And he just stood on that little platform, with his ski mask on, rapping like a god. Unbelievable.

.

And of course they let us be their choir and sing for and with them. I felt so alive, screaming out the lyrics of some of my favorite songs with hundreds of other people who all admire the same two boys. I don’t even know what to say. I really wish I could relive it all right now.

.

They promised to come again and I really really REALLY hope I won’t have to wait too long to see them again. I can just give you all an advice – whenever you have the chance to see Twenty Øne Piløts live, DO IT. Even if you don’t like their music that much, just go to their concert. Really. You won’t regret it. Trust me. It will be one of the best evenings of your life and a night you will never forget.

.

This time I’m going to end my post the way Tyler and Josh ended the concert:

We are Twenty Øne Piløts. And so are you.

Thanks for reading. x

A trip to the city

Hola everyone.

The last weekend was a really really exciting time for me. I went to Vienna with my mum for a concert (you’ll hear EVERYTHING about it later this week, I promise) and we spent some nice hours there, chilling in cool cafés, eating amazing food and strolling through the streets. I’m sure you all can guess by now that I took my camera with me – of course. So, it’s that time again where I share my most-beloved pictures with you. Enjoy. And thanks for reading. x

The tattoo tag

Hola everyone.

Tattoos… We all know what they are, how they are made and of course that they are getting more and more popular.

As you may be questioning yourself right now, yep, I also have tattoos. Two, to be exact. And I’m so in love with them and that special body art over all, so I thought why not dedicate a post to tattoos? Let’s start.

.

I think my love for tattoos started in highschool. I always knew them, as I had been confronted with the black thingys since I was born, as my mum has a rose tattoo on her chest.

And as I got older and older, I started to dream about my own tattoos. I began drawing signs and letters on my arms, wrists and fingers with a black sharpie. And I just loved it. Whenever the colour started to fade, I immediately drew over it.

In that time I started to tell my mum about my dream of having a tattoo and she reacted in the best way ever. She first told me to think about it and then told me she would make an appointment for me if I wanted. But I noticed that I wasn’t ready.

.

I went over two years with drawing on my skin, dreaming about tattoos and still not being ready. In those years I also told my mum that I wanted to have a tattoo with her, as our relationship was, is and hopefully will forever be really really special. And she loved the idea.

And guess what? Last year the moment had come. I got my two first tattoos. It happened when mum and me went to the Sziget Festival in Budapest. And before you think we got the tattoos ON the festival and start being grossed out, it wasn’t like that. My mum and me always said that the tattoos should be something really special, made in a special place, so they would have their own story too. So we decided to get the tattoos made when we are in Budapest. I looked for a good tattoo shop and got the best appointment ever in the best shop in Budapest and after we had spent a weekend full of fun, music and happiness, we went to get the tattoos made afterwards in the center of the city.

I can tell you, I was EXTREMELY nervous. I was scared that I would regret the decision, but until today it was one of the best decisions of my life. Our tattoo artist was totally nice and even spoke our language, so we talked about her job, Budapest and just life over all, while she fulfilled one of my biggest dreams – and it didn’t even hurt, not even on the wrist. I fell in love with the tattoos the moment she started making them and even more when they were finished.

After that, we drove home and I was so so so so damn happy, I just couldn’t stop smiling. Even now I can’t stop grinning when I look at them, I’m so happy to have them.

.

So, what are my tattoos?

I always wanted to have a wrist tattoo, so the mother daughter tattoo was perfect for that place. My mum and me decided to get a moon and a sun, she got the sun and I got the moon. It fits, because I basically live at night and my mum dreams about summer, 36 degress and lying in the sun the whole year. And besides that it also means that we may be different, yes, but be would never be able exist or live without the other one.

The second tattoo I got is the lettering “love life” on the inner side of my forearm. It really means a lot to me, as I’m a very optimistic person, who always tries to see the best in people and the world and I also think that it’s important to be happy about the life we have and just celebrate that we are here. So the tattoo was kind of a must have for me.

.

So yeah, that’s my tattoo story. I hope you enjoyed reading and if you have any questions about the tattoos or just want to talk to me about this topic or anything else, you know, I’m here and would be happy to hear from you all. Thanks for reading. x

How to survive exam week

Hola everyone.

Well well… Exam week is “finally” here and it’s also time for my first ever exams at university. You can probably imagine my excitement, that comes in good and bad ways. And although it’s only the start of my university-exam-career, I had time to understand how the week of hell works. So, here are some tips from me to you on how to survive exams:

  • Start soon enough, don’t wait until it’s too late and you get the stress of your life, and yeah, I know, noone likes to study
  • Eat and drink enough (it’s just exams and no reason to stop caring about yourself)
  • Don’t let anyone else stress you
  • Noone cares if you look tired, seriously, we are all tired
  • Your friends will understand if you don’t go to that one party
  • Don’t stress yourself too much, they’re just exams, you won’t die if you fail
  • Grades don’t matter that much (I know, because I had all straight As at my A-levels and noone cares until today)
  • Don’t stop doing what you love because of exams, that will just make you sad
  • Sleep is precious and you need it, don’t cut down on it
  • Your brain is your new best friend
  • Listening to music can help you to calm down (at least it does that for me)
  • Even if it’s stressful, you need to chill and rest a little
  • Procrastinating is bad for you, even if the fly on the wall is much more interesting than the book in front of you
  • Your social life is still important, don’t isolate yourself completely
  • Take breaks there and then
  • Just breath
  • You can do anything you want
  • You are strong enough
  • JUST DO IT

I hope this helps some of you surviving the week of hell. I know you can do it, just believe in yourself. Exams are just small hurdles on the exciting way called life. And we will all overcome them. So, good luck with your exams and thanks for reading. x
