The Future

Hola everyone.

The future is a quite scary thing, isn’t it? The past few days and weeks I’ve actually been thinking about my future a lot. About my dreams and hopes. The plans I’ve been making for myself. And about what I want and don’t want.

.

I have to say, there are actually quite a lot questions marks floating above my head. Although I do have a plan. I mean, I love thinking about my future. Because I love dreaming and no dream has ever been to big for me, thanks to my mum who always told me that I could achieve anything. So here I am, dreaming of going to London after finishing my bachelor studies in two years to study fashion journalism. God, that’s such a big wish of mine. Live in my favorite city on this planet and get to study the coolest course ever. Holy moly.

.

But in the past few weeks, like I said, I have been thinking about that a lot. Whether I really want to study fashion journalism or just focus more on my love for music or somehow involve my love for photography. So it’s quite hard.

.

And on the other hand I always have to keep in my mind all the things and dreams and goals and wishes I’ve already fulfilled in my life. I wrote my own book, lived in Berlin and am now writing for a local magazine. So I am actually already a journalist. It all really blows my mind, it’s so crazy. And I’m so proud of that and thankful for everything.

.

As I had and still have to think a lot, I somehow managed to (maybe) find a good plan for myself. As I know it will be quite hard to get into the University of Arts and moreover live and study in London – thanks Brexit. And leave my family. But I will fight for it, more than ever before and try to stay strong. Because that’s my dream.

.

And I’ve also been thinking about starting an online course for interior design or photography this summer as I’ve always been in love with that subject and the creativity involved in it. I think courses like that are perfect for people who want to learn new things and study, but at their own pace and at home. It’s comfortable, but still perfect if you want to enhance your interests and learn more about them. Actually my mum is currently doing a course to be a vegan dietitian, which I think is super amazing. So there are two students at home right now.

.

To be honest, I have no idea what the future will bring or where it will take me. I just know what I’d really love to do. Maybe have my own magazine sometime or work for one the big kings in the business – Vogue I’m coming for you. Or maybe I’ll become one of the people who have the honor to write about festivals and interview the biggest stars. Who knows. All I can say is that I’m incredibly excited.

.

I know this post has pretty much been me rambling about stuff that’s floating around in my head but I thought maybe some of you are in the same position as me. I’ve always enjoyed discussing stuff like this with other people and hear their opinions, so please don’t hesitate to leave comments down below. And until then I really hope you enjoyed this post and are doing well. I wish you guys an amazing weekend. And, as always, thanks for reading. x

Why I need to live in a city

Hola everyone.

You know, basically I’m from the smallest town you can imagine. We have like two supermarkets and a kindergarden and a primary school. After that we have to drive to the next small town to go to high school. So yeah, my hometown pretty small.

.

Actually I’ve always felt that I fitted better into a city. And while studying in Vienna and now that I’ve lived in Berlin without coming home for weeks, I just KNOW that I need to live in a city.

.

I notice it even more because I’m now at home and not staying in Vienna. And seriously, I can’t do anything here after 7pm, even less when I want to do something on my own. All of the shops close at 7pm and it’s dark and cold and usually I’d go to the cinema but the only one that is like close to me is so small that the current selection of movies is spectacularly lame. For real.

.

Do you know what I mean? When I was in Berlin I could go shopping until 9pm. And the big book and creative store, my favorite place in the city, was even open until midnight (yes, I’m serious and yes, I know, it’s freaking amazing). So whenever I was bored at night I could just take the subway and go there until it was time to go home and to bed. And of course the cinema, holy moly. So many cinemas, so many movies to watch, what a heaven.
And just overall, in such a small town life outside basically stops when it’s getting dark. And in a city that’s when it all starts. And me being someone who lives at night and sleeps over the day, that’s a perfect concept.

.

So yeah, I just know that I need to live in a big city. One as big as Berlin (sometimes Vienna is even a little bit too sleepy for me). But of course I’m happy that my home is at the countryside, because growing up there is just so much better than in a city. It’s relaxing, calm, you get to know all of the people in your town and it’s just so peaceful. So when the time for me has come to settle down and build a family, I want to live at the countryside. And also when I settle down for a little while in a city, it will always be one of the most important aspects for me to be able to see my family every once in a while, so I yeah, I will probably not chose something too far away.

.

Actually, I think London and Brighton are perfect examples for that concept. London is like the most amazing city ever. And Brighton is a charming town, a mix between city and town and when you walk away from the city center you feel like you’re in a small town again. And the sea is right next to the city, so that’s just another plus, because who doesn’t want to look out of the window and see the beach and the ocean. So yeah, London and Brighton are always floating around in my head when it comes to the future.

.

But guys, please tell me your opinion and if you share my thoughts or not. I mean, I know both types – friends who want to live in a city and friends who want to stay in their hometowns or just at the countryside overall. And I’m really interested in how the situation is all around the world, in your town, in your opinion. So please don’t hesitate to comment something, I’d be happy to read from you.

.

And yeah, that’s pretty much what’s going on in my mind right now. I hope you enjoyed this post and, as always, thanks for reading. x

Also, the two babes Tyler and Josh won a Grammy last night and I feel like a proud mum. It feels so good to see such an amazing indie band like Twenty One Pilots win over the whole world and get the well deserved credit for it.
