Woop!

I finally have a decent internet connection again and am enjoying the e-life a lot!!
To celebrate this with you, here's a little mix I made with songs that absolutely don't match each other, and their only purpose is to make me dance (and you maybe as well).
Turn the volume up, dance and enjoy and I'll see you soon!

Autumnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

[I refuse to call it fall. Because autumn sounds so much better.]
I went to my dad's today and to my surprise unlike in Munich, here it's the most beautiful autumn-like sunny weather everrrr.
And what do I do when I want to show you stuff? Rrrrrright, have a photoshoot.
(yeah and also I just wanted to show off how incredibly groovy my new hair looks like in the daylight and with the nature background and in combination with my scarf and all that. yay!!)

The first "scene" if you will is some sort of "tada!!! It's autumn!" setting. The happy look on my face goes extremely well with the elegant gesture. What I especially enjoy about this picture is that my hair looks like it's incredibly long, and my boobs seem to be nonexistent.

The second picture shows me and our dog Laika. How she loves photos!! Believe it or not, this was the best out of more than ten pictures that I tried to take with her. The sad look on her face is her trademark and especially efficient during dinner. OUR dinner, not hers.

Behind our house I found the setting for shot #3. This tree had just the most perfect yellow leaves of all time and seemed to be a great eye catcher for a photo. Unfortunately, next to that little tree is our trash, so the picture you can see here is the first AND last one out of that certain setting. Geez there were flies everywhere, it was disgusting.

I accidentally took this picture when I opened PhotoBooth again after I went to my room to write this here, and even though it's an accident, I really, really love this picture. The colours are fabulous, and it's not even edited!!! (None of the pictures in this post are, btw.)

So that's it for today!!! My internet still sucks. I still can't watch or upload videos or in fact do anything fun online, except of course more or less accidental cybering with my lovelies which is the only thing that really counts, but yes.. I'm still on a semi-break that will hopefully be over the upcoming weekend. We'll see!!!

Rainbows, glitter and tons of candy for all of you,

Happy Thoughts.

I like to doodle things while I'm on the phone.
And earlier, when I called the "service" line from my ISP (or my wannabe-Service provider. Ha. Ha. What a JOKE) I drew these little things:
Yes, I know. Happy, isn't it? Being on hold for what felt like an hour or so was just so much fun.
A rant is in order, my friends. Once all of this is set up and settled and I can officially say I have a real internet connection again, I'll dedicate a video full of "love" to the company that will provide me with the bandwidth to upload said video. Isn't it ironic, don't you think?

Pictures and things and stuff

Hi! How are you? I'm good, thanks!
I finally made a new video on my main channel. That was long overdue and I missed editing and filming and all that!
Also, I got featured on the German frontpage with the latest video I made on my kiwipedia channel (which is insane enough, but even more insane is the fact that I have three videos on that channel, and two of them have been featured on the German frontpage now. In. Sane.) and as much as I appreciate all this, it's a pretty weird thing. To me it still seems like people from Germany don't know much about YouTube, and about vlogging or just in general "normal" people who enjoy making videos and uploading them. To them it's clips from TV shows, or music videos. And as soon as someone has the guts to put themselves out there, it's a "fat emo bitch who has no life" [insert bad grammar and spelling here]. Or something like that, depending on whether you're a guy or a girl of course.
But yes. It's surreal, and fun at the same time. It also gives me the opportunity to screenshot something like this haha:
Sooooo I would officially announce that after a few weeks of not being into YouTube too much, I am officially back and stuff!! In general, I embrace the e-life with all its weird twists and turns and strange, strange people, and I shall twitter/vlog/blog/etc more often in the near future!! Currently, I'm in Maddox's blogTV show and I just won a Spice Girls picture challenge (the prize was chosing the next 90's pop song. I love it so! And yes, I was Baby Spice. Who else!!!)
Then Kristalyn Sporty Spiced it up, Jasmine did Baby Spice too, and JC went full out crazy and played Scary Spice for us. AND THAT'S WHY I LOVE BEING ONLINE. The end.

PS: Thanks blogger once again for not letting me use the layout I want. Thanks a lot. Really. Asshole.

Yearbookpicturetimetravel.

My loveliest blog reader! I discovered the most brilliant website of all times. Since we crazy Germans don't really have Yearbooks I (un)fortunately never had the pleasure of seeing myself in a horrible photo on a page in one of those, and then I came across this: Yearbook Yourself - and oh the fun I had while making the following pictures!

1960
Here you can see I am rocking the cat eye glasses. I'm a huge fan of these and I also especially enjoy my fringe. Very classy.


1968
The hair is still pretty dark, and still pretty wavy. At least the ends. The turtle neck is something I'd call naughty. Just saying.


1984
So as time goes by, hair colours change, and if I may add, going blonde was a good idea. I just can pull that off so well haha


1994
If you've ever talked to me in person, you know that this is one of my favourite poses of all time. The permy (!!!) is a must and oh so fashionable!


2000
This looks like a cheesy porn version of my actual haircut. Please notice the dreamy waves in my hair and the fancy pearl necklace.


[I'm not sure what happened to me in the 70's. Let's just say I was stoned and didn't show up for the picture taking day.]
And now I challenge you all to go to that website and try it out yourself! (Dumb facial expressions are mandatory.) And let me know if you post the pictures. I am a curious little Kiwi.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!!

Hello world!!! ^_^

I haven't updated you, my little blog, in a while. And since today was fun and stuff, I thought this was about a good time to do that.
I'm currently at my dad's for a few days, things have happened, that's why I came here, but also it's my usual every-other-weekend-visit and this time it doesn't mean offline land for me!!! But that's another story and I shall share it with you soon (as well as all the other crap that I had to go through while changing my ISP. Not that that's over yet. Oh my. You have no idea.).

For now, let me tell you about my lovely day.

I met up with my friend Nina, we went shopping (at one of those really cheap ass stores and I bought two fabulous sweater thingies!)
Here are some pictures. Yay!

This makes me feel like I'm wearing an old school video game.

Random flower-leaf action in light and dark grey. Hooray!
I also finally bought hair dye (so on my weekend to-do-list), a silver nailpolish (yaha, those things exist. How trashy. I love it.) and a really tacky eyeshadow in "Petrol" (some turquoisy blue-ish colour).
Then we took a little roadtrip for about 40 minutes and accidentally even went to Austria. That was not planned, I took a wrong turn and woops, there we were. Oh the fun of living close to a border. We ended up at a McCafé (I don't know if you have those. It's like the McDonald's version of a Starbucks. But not really. But yes.), had huge coffees and a small cake, then went back to the hometown, had a little music exchange party, spent some quality time with Nina's dad which is always fun (one of my goals in life is to dance in a polonaise with him. Just because.) and then we bought burgers and went home. Separately.
Now I'm doing my laundry (yes, you needed to know) and she is out at a concert I think, and I blog about today and wish I had taken some photos of the whole thing. But I didn't. Oh well.

This blog post is so not coherent. And just because I feel like it, I want to leave you with a mixtape. Turn up your volume and dance!!!

Bunnies and confetti,
Kiwi
