Cherry yum yum! || Visit to the Archaeological Muesum [Very Picture Heavy]

So ofc, I am still going on with my baking challenge, and here are 
my lovely cherry cupcakes from Saturday~ 




I also went to the Archaeolgical Museum that day, I was allowed to take picuters, at least at one part of it. 
The other part was a sepcial exhibition about skulls, so the more interesting part, 
but it was forbidden to take photos in there, unfortunately. 
I loved this exhibition, idk I have something with skulls, their fascinating.
They had a glass skull (google that, there's interesting myths concerning the end of the world about it) and a crystal skull, asian skulls, african skulls, european skulls, american skulls, adult skulls, phetus skulls, A LOT about different cultures and how they either prayed to skulls for help from the gods or feared them, some cultures build houses for skulls, some decorated huge bottles with them, others tattooed them and used them as sign for victory. Reeeeeally interesting!
But as I said, only pictures of the normal exhibition.
Bones from neanderthals, ans acessories from romans, etc etc!




The text is talking about a volcano that erupted in the Eiffel in 10 966 BC.
Because of that the whole area was covered with a 50meters layer of stone.
There was so much lava that the river Rhein became a lake for some time!






Ashes of a human

This was so small like, probably a pinky fingernail? Not much bigger really.
Romans were amazing!


"If the Lions in Africa had their own Storytellers, the Hunters wouldn't always be the Winners."

This was a roman well. After they left their camp they burned it down completely, and threw dead animals, dirt, screws, and all kinds of stuff into the well, which made it unusable for others. It was so their enemies couldn't use it for themselves!




Pet dog skeleton. Found in the park in my town - I can see that park from my window! :D
It's supposed to be pretty old!

Deformed Skull of a European Woman.
When the Huns came to Europe, some kind of beauty ideal came as well - the skull form, a very long skull. Girls skulls were deformed with bandages so they'd become longer! 

Part of the laboratory they put up to show how it's all done in archaeology.
They have microscopes and all set up there, and you can try things out yourself, and everything is well explained, for example anthropology or the radiocarbon dating method!


Wrong way around Piece sign?
No actually not, this was once a window from a church!
Text: From the 8th Century on, Westphalia had Church windows made of glass.
This one is heavily weathered, therefore barely transparent. The Frame is made of blumb.

'Every thing has its Time.'





Snow! :)

I really need to start blogging more.
What other use does it have to have a blog?

Well, It's been snowing a lot here recently, so I went out and took my camera along a few times this and the last week!


Look out of my window after it snowed the whole night ^.^
  

attempt of macro photographing snowflakes on my gloves.
Pretty little things! 


 
Bird searching for food in granny's garden! 



Our town's lake geeeeeese!


I also build some nice snowman!
And a snow skull... a little deformed!^^

Doesn't tase as nice as lemoncurd, but try finding that in germany! D:)

MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS!


Everyone's posting lovely coords today, hahah I can't I'm running round in nothing more than tights and a shirt, nothing to show off (except maybe my super duper cute christmas panties with snowflakes on them. ☆)
Aaaaaanyways, Today my mom and her boyfriend spend the whole day with me, and we cooked and baked a lot!

I made another set of baiser, this time it worked MUCH better than last time, probably because I took a look at my watch for once! ;D

I really think they look better than the last ones.


The main sweet I got to bake today were not the Baisers though, no, it was something different. And muuuuch sweeter. (Just ugh the amount of sugar in it...)


TIRAMISU! ♥
With a ♥!


Uhm, back to Christmas, yea? :3 
Mom, her boyfriend and I had Raclette for lunch!
I didn't have this in years and it was greaaaat omnomnomnom! *_*


After that, we gave each other our presents.
Because my mom had some problems in her job and I already got a phone earlier this year, I didn't get very much, but I am still happy about what I got because it was given to my with love! (I'm getting a little cheesy here^^)
And my mom's boyfriend, he's just the cutest ever!
When my mom asked if I properly said thank you, he replied with yes, and she asked, in fun, ofc, if i have kneeled down and thanked him and he was like "No, she did something better, she hugged me!" Because it means a lot to him that I accept him as my mothers boyfriend, that was sooo adorable, really.
And then we all watched the Big Bang Theory marathon and were happy all together.
It was a really nice christmas eve, really <3 

I wish I knew the next days were gonna be this nice, but since I'll spend thim with the 'wrong' part of my family, who knows~~~

I hope everyone else had a nice christmas eve as well! Tis the season to be jolly, after all!

Halloween

So, I think i should actually update this blog again! yay! :D
I kno it's been quite a while since Halloween, but I put so much effort into my make-up, and I looked horrific, so I reckon I should actually upload some pics here! :D

I was a dead school girl, if it's not obvious enough^^;;




I went to the party with the mask on and everyone was like "Boo boring!" 
And then I took it off and

BAM!

Oh and also, the weekend before Halloween I went to visit my lovely cousins, because they had a pre-Halloweenparty in her town!

Clueso

A while ago I went to the hairdresser with my bestie, Krissi, and she asked me if I had time that same day, a saturday. I said yes, and she announced that I will go to see Clueso live with her in Dortmund, an open air concert! She wanted to go with her mother, but her mother couldn't go, so i was 'forced' to come along, since I'm not really into Clueso. Not at all. But she wanted me to, so as a good friend, I said yes, and I didn't regret accepting that offer!
After her appointment at the hairdresser, we shortly went to my place and thought town, and then off to the Westfalenpark!
Westfalenpark~
I like to take pictures of walls kthxbai

When we arrived it was already pretty crowded, but we still got really far to the front!
The first support band was already playing!
we actually still got closer to the stage than this! We had an amazing view!

After them was some danish band, the singer was pretty hot.
our view from where we were! :)

Then a break, and Clueso came on stage, and I was really surprised. I didn't even know what that person looked like before XD
He's really handsome, and he has an amazing voice live! Really, the lyrics to the songs are great, sometimes serious, sometimes funny, but always really unique, and the show was great. He also chatted with the crowd a couple of times, and he's a really nice and sympathic person and he sure is loads of fun! :)


Apparently, he didn't wanna leave, so he played one encore, and another, and another and another, saying 'this is REALLY the last song now' every time, it was hilarious! :D

I really enjoyed the concert, and I think I became a mini-Clueso fan there! :D
Also, a girl i know went to the concert as well, she posted it on facebook. I thought "Look at all these people, I'm never gonne see her!" Guess who I met at the crowded subway station with thousands of people waiting for the train? Her! :D

*will upload some videos @my youtube
*will upload more pictures @my facebook

Party all night, sleep all day!

literally just partied and slept the first september weekend, fuck yea!
On Friday (31.8.), my lovely cousin Marie arrived here and we went to my longest friends 18th birthday party. I know Sophia since first grade, and though we are not best best friends anymore, we still get along very well!


We left early on, because Marie didn't feel so well, and on our way home some guys started following us being like "hey guuurls, you out alone at this time? should we go home with you ;))" - ewww, hell no..... oO 
But they quickly left us alone again, luckily!

Next morning we went to Marie's place then, also visiting my aunt and my sweet younger cousin Lilly ♥ 
While Mary went back to sleep again, Lilly and I went to Weilburg, where they have an old castle, where we took some pictures, also at the river Lahn and it was my first ever ride in a Peugot convertible that day, what an epic feeling! 


Weilburg has some awesome architecture, this bridge is only one example. There's loads of old buildings, most of them renovated and they look really fancy! 

 I mean, school sucks, but those nice old school buildings, I really like them loads.
Imagine living there, in such an old building!

Later that night Marie and I went to.... idek. something with L....? a tiny tiny village, like all of the villages there. I met her best friend Mo and 2 other boys, Patrick and Marc Kevin, and I met Kim who i got to know almost 2 years ago again! (I totally forgot what she looked like, because i was drunk when i got to know her. I knew that i knew her and she was nice, but didn't exactly know who she was OTL) But anyways Kim is amazing, so is Mo, Patrick is nice, and Marc Kevin is just plain weird and.... well he creeped the fuck out of me. 
We were at Marc's and Patrick's Place at first, drinking the stuff we bought before, with me almost choking on my vodka-orange because someone said something funny... i couldn't breath anymore, omg DX
I wish I had taken my camera with me that night actually, but I didn't... the party in L. was some annual festivity at an old castle ruin.... it was nice there, really nice!
Next year, maybe I'll go again and take the camera then!
We had such a fun evening there, dancing to that totally stupid music, and mary almost falling into the Lahn (I swear she did, she wanted to sit on the wall there but.... i tried to save her and got kicked on my chin as a reward, fu.. it still hurts.... XDD)

In the end we had such a great time, it was so sad we had to leave already. I hope I can get there soon again!
Sunday, we didn't do anything though. we slept, Lilly and I played on her Wii and then we left in the evening. 
*sigh*
Distance is a bitch! >.<

I miss everyone loads!



*wrote the date cuz it's  more than a week ago already^^
