Never finished songs



Surrounded by the broken pieces of her paradise.
She's trying to pick them up and put them back to life.
And she's sitting alone trying to figure out life.
With all these teardrops falling slowly down from her eyes.

But she's gotta be strong.
Yeah, she's holding on to her dreams
and she knows that her life will get better if she starts to believe.~


This is one of the songs I wrote.
One of hundreds I never finished.
Why? I don't really know..

I loved to sing since I was little and I am still singing all the time.
Whenever I felt down or whenever I had a problem..I felt like writing it down on paper would help.
And it did.

This is really personal and I was struggling with the decision if I should upload it but as I said, i'd love to share my mind with you.

I never finished any of the songs, I can't even remember most of them.
When I felt really down and not understood I started writing down my feelings and my thoughts.
This may sound stupid but I couldn't keep it in. I had to write it down.
I wrote these lines in five minutes, I wouldn't call any of them a song.
Because their not.
I wrote down my thoughts and my feelings and started to sing them..

Yet I never finished one of them.
As soon as I start writing it makes me feel better.
So most of the times when I get to the end of the chorus..I'm also at the end of my mood.

Writing songs always helped me to get through something or over someone.
Here's another unfinished work of mine, I hope you like the lyrics since you don't get to hear anything, they mean a lot to me.

Slow down, take a breath.
The world is watching you as you take your step.
Your head is high over the sky
and you isolate yourself from everybody else.
You build your walls up high to yourself
and you believe in better words. 

I'm keeping my thoughts up to myself.
walking around in this world,
thinking about the life we could've had.
You tell me you miss me all along,
I'm hoping you're staying but we know
that you're already gone.
You are already gone.~

Supportive Sunday-Hobbie Stuart


So here it is, my first Supportive Sunday blog-post.
I chose to talk about one of my favourites musicians.

Hobbie Stuart.
                                     


Hobbie is a YouTube-sensation...yeah i think that describes him quite good.
After uploading covers on YouTube he's now unveiling his own material on his debut album.

He released his Single called "Still here" and I'm absolutely in love with it.
Hobbie wrote the song last year in the studio after he thought about writing a song which has nothing to do with girls. He thought back to a time when he didn't really know what to do with his life after he got kicked out of college. He also thought it was too late to actually start to do anything with it but he realized putting that much effort in his music was worth it so he wrote a song about this.

What I love about him is that he covers every song in his own version.
He's different to all these popular singers and his voice is amazing.

This is what I love about musicians from YouTube.
If someone gets famous, music won't be the only thing people will care about when they hear their names.
But when a musician uploads a cover or even an original song...people come to YouTube to listen to them.
They're life isn't that important. Because it doesn't matter.
I feel like it should be like this everywhere.

We should stop caring so much about their life, the mistake they may make.
They are famous for their music and not their private life but people hype that way too much.
That's why I am mostly listening to YouTubers.

Sorry if this blog-post wasn't that interesting for some of you.
Thanks for reading x

Getting organized on "Life with me"


Hey Blogposts-readers I call my friends but who are too cool to follow me so I feel like you don't want to be friends so you are actually just strangers! ..jokes I love all of you beautiful people :D

So today is Sunday and I came up with the idea to form "another" "category".
I am still a newcomer so I don't really know in which direction this blog is going.
When I started this blog, I never thought about making these "motivation posts" but I like writing them and this is what's going on in my mind.

The blog is called "Life with me" so I sat down and thought about what I want this blog to be about...
and I decided: Everything!

I think making categories is not a bad idea.

I love to travel, so there will be a category which I already named "Exploring the world"
Also I will have a category where I'll just write posts about what's on my mind, as the "Catching my dreams" and " How to: Be happy!" posts.
Maybe I'll get a fashion and beauty category aswell, who knows.

But for today...Supportive Sunday is on my list.

Let me explain the idea:
I want to make blog-posts every Sunday about things I support.
Whether it's about films, sport, beauty, musicians or even people's opionions.
Just some things I support and what I want to share with you.

So stay tuned for my now (hopefully) organized blog! (:

Nowadays youth


Hola amigos! - Spanish..i think?

Sometimes I start thinking about the teenagers these days and in which way we've changed to older generations. People say you can't compare them because back then, life was different to today's life.

But that's wrong. Of course you can't compare everything but you can compare some things.
The older generations don't think too well about our youth. They say we focus on things that don't matter, for example fashion, love and friends. You can't tell me that this wasn't the same back then.

One thing that did change our youth is the technology...but is that bad?
Okay some teenagers may "waste" their time on it but I am thinking about the good things of technology.
I mean let's take me as an example...okay my parents still see it as a waste of time, but some people don't understand that this is a new way of connecting to people you probably would never get to meet.
Watching videos on youtube and seeing that people understand you because they are talking about the exact same problems, listening to music because the lyrics describes exactly how you feel...

The internet is a new opportunity for people to express themselves. It's a new way of sharing their thoughts, their life with people...like I am doing on here.
For me this is a good thing and not any waste of time.

A negative thing about nowaday's youth are their sets of goals.
I was sitting in my English class a few months ago and we talked about freemales and if we want to get married one day.

Every single girl in my class said no. I don't know if it's just the german youth but I heard that often over here.
The most important thing for them is to build up a career and maybe having a child one day...but getting married? They don't understand why.

Well I mean it's their opinion, but I was shocked.
My goal in life is to build up a family..why is money important if you don't have anyone to share it with?
Money doesn't buy happiness.
I don't really care how much money I will earn one day, I also explained that in my Catching my dreams Blogpost, if it makes me happy then I know I did everything right.
So the most important thing for me...is my family and I feel like back then, the youth thought the same.

How to: Be happy!

Hey you, yeah you!
Thanks for reading my Blog, I love you...oh did this make you feel uncomfortable? Sorry :S

So I am probably a person who knows really well how to get myself up when I'm down...which happens quite often but Life is too short to worry about things so I will show you what you have to do to be happy.
Enjoy!

Step numero uno: Surround yourself with positive people

When you're having a day full off stress or something isn't working well at the moment, being around positive and happy people can make a whole difference to your mood. They can either make you forget about the cause for your mood or they can solve it. Just free your heart from people who could make it worse.



Step two: Free your mind from worries

Now this is a step that is helping me out most of the times when I have a problem.

If you change your way of seeing things, you will soon realize that most of them don't matter.
It may be important for you but it doesn't matter.

Okay here's an example: If you're a teenager as I am, then you have daily problems like what should I wear, what if they don't like me, what if I get bad grades, I need to lose weight etc.

In five or ten years you'll be thinking back and probably ask yourself why you worried so much about stupid things like that. 
It doesnt matter if you get one bad grade, don't let you get down because of this.

It doesn't matter if people may not like you because of your opinion on something, your style or whatever, it doesn't matter.

Be yourself and be happy with yourself. Free your mind from all these worries...they seem big now but in a few years you'll laugh about things like that.


Step trois: Do more of what makes you happy!

My last step is explaining itself. Do more of what makes you happy.
Whether it's drawing, riding your bike or skateboard, going out with friends or even simple things like singing in the shower or taking pictures.

If it makes you happy then why shouldn't you be allowed to do more of it?
If anyone tells you to stop, tell them that it makes you happy.



So these are my three keys to happiness.
If you think they are rubbish or not helping then I'm sorry but if there is one person I could help and make his or hers life only 0.02% better, then I'm happy and then this post was totally worth it.

Exploring the world - My trip to Belgium



Last year I got the ability to drive to Brussels, the capital city of Belgium.
My first impressions would have been...probably amazed by the beauty of it.
We only stayed there over the weekend but I loved it from what I got to see.




What I enjoyed so much about this city were the old buildings. I loved the fact that they had this old style but still were in a good condition.

I love cities with smaller side streets.
Brussels was full of them and you could find little cafes or boutiques.

This is probably one of my favourites pictures.
As soon as you get closer to the center of Brussels you will also get closer to the music of the city.

I've never seen so many and so different musicians on the streets as I saw on my trip to Brussels.

You could listen to them all day, there was always someone playing his instrument.
Whether a double bass, a self-made violin or even self-made instruments where nobody could tell what they were meant to be.

One thing I soon recognized was that the city was full of tourists. This was one thing that I personally didn't enjoy. It may sound weird but to me, the city didn't feel 'real' ...of course it's because I spent most of my time in the center.
Anyway, after walking around and listening to these musicians, I found this:




The Belgian waffles.

Belgium is well-
known for their food.
You could buy french fries,
waffles and chocolate everywhere.
So I tried one of these waffles.
I tried one without anything so I just had the waffle and I thought it tasted okay...I expected more since they got so hyped but oh well.
In the end I had a great weekend and I would totally recommend a trip to this beautiful city. (:

Catching my Dreams


Everyone remembers their childhood. Well I do...okay I'm 17 so it wasn't such a long time ago.
Remember your first Dream-Jobs? I wanted to be a singer when I was about 4 I think. I still do sometimes haha. In second grade all the girls wanted to become a Star, a model or a fashion designer....not me. I wanted to become the POPE. Yes, I knew I was a girl and yeap, I knew I probably didn't have the qualifications but hey, I heard the pope doesn't pay taxes. How cool is that? Exactly! Really cool. So without knowing what taxes even are I knew what i wanted to become.

With growing up I started to realise that I dont want to have a job where you earn a lot of money but being so annoyed of it by the end of the day.
I wanted to become something that makes me happy.

Since kindergarden I loved to draw...well okay I think all kids like painting and drawing...but my love for it didn't fade. It grew and I am still loving it.

Since I was in 9th grade or something I wanted to become a media-designer. And my thoughts about it haven't changed yet. My parents didnt support me at the beginning because they thought it was only a "Dream-Job" as the dream to become a pope...and I can say..yes. It is my dream job and I do want to become a media-designer. A few months ago my parents understood that it really is what I want and after a lot of arguements and fights I finally have their support. Some of you may be curious about my skills..or maybe I have to prove it? haha anyways here are some of my Drawings, hope you like them (:

 

                                         (sorry for the bad quality by the way)


What I am trying to say is that in my eyes it is more important to do more of what makes you happy.
Maybe I wont earn a lot of money one day and maybe some people will try to bring you down and prevent you to keep going but who cares? As long as I am waking up with a smile on my face because I love what I am doing..then I know that I did everything right in my life and no one can tell you something else.
