Weekly Update: Solar eclipse and computer problems

So, what exactly did I do this week? Well, I did my usual business. And other things... On friday I experienced a partial solar eclipse 

I really like this picture because it looks like a smiling mouth. It didn't actually get any darker, which taking into account that 60% of the sun was covered up, is pretty baffling. The only thing you could notice was, that it got a little colder. 

Another thing that happened this week was, that I noticed something is terribly wrong with my laptop. I can't save anything, I can't open chrome. Everything is pretty much a mess. I hope I'll be able to figure things out during easter holiday. 

Next week is will be semi-stressful, as I am going to write an exam and also going to sing in front of people, which always makes me feel very uncomfortable. I am really looking forward to easter holiday.

When winter suddenly arrived

It was around 9 o'clock in the morning. I was woken up by noises coming from outside. I was familiar with the noise, but I could't figure out what exactly it was. I hadn't heard it for more than two years. It took me a moment to figure out what it was. My thought on what it could be was just so surreal. I glanced out of the window and my eyes needed a second to adjust to the light coming from outside. What beauty. All year I've been waiting for this! The neighbours houses were buried underneath a rather thick layer of snow. I got really excited and looked ran to the other side of the house to see whether it would be the same in my garden. And it was. The pines were covered in white and so was the rest of the garden.

I sprinted downstairs and outside, into the garden and I just didn't care anymore. I didn't care about wearing a cozy animal onesie. I didn't care about what others would think if they saw me. I didn't care about the freezing cold. I felt like a child again. I grabbed a pile of snow and threw it. Then I smiled and went back inside with the greatest amount of satisfaction one can possibly achieve on a weekday morning.

What I got for Christmas

So first of all: I am not showing this to brag, but simply to show you what I got for Christmas. Maybe this will help you to find a gift for a loved one next year or inspire you to find something to wish for for an upcoming occasion. So I hope you'll enjoy this:

 I was given a adidas tracksuit for track and field. I've been wearing the bottoms the whole day, just because they're sooo nice and cozy.

 This is what I was given to by my lovely friends. Just some really nice and thoughtful gifts. If I am honest I really liked these because I didn't know what I was going to get and I just love surprises. Especially if a person really knows me. Thank you <3.
Happy Holidays to all of you.
