Reach for the stars
...or better, start climbing.

Bonnes Résolutions
Deux résolutions parmi d'autres:
- aller chez Lush plus souvent
- instaurer le karaoke du jeudi soir. (C'est bien parti!)
Je vais aimer 2004.

Sledge
At the price of a few frozen fingers, we bring back to you some photographs of our courageous expedition into the snow-covered mountains of western Switzerland.
Citation étoilée
Un grand merci à Marc qui attire aujourd'hui mon attention sur la citation du jour d'aujourd'hui, si je puis ainsi dire:
Accroche ton chariot à une étoile.
Me voilà donc ravie de savoir de qui est cette citation, et également de connaître la version originale anglaise:
Hitch your wagon to a star.

Devoirs
Je me réveille un peu en panique. Deux jours pour pondre dix pages, ce n'est pas trop long. Sujet du devoir: "Qui sommes-nous? Comment nous devenons adultes." Le délai de reddition est le 16.
Heureusement, il n'y a de pages à écrire que dans mon rêve. Le sujet cependant m'interpelle. La date aussi: nous sommes effectivement le 14 au matin. Et le 16, alors? Ah oui, le 16, justement... Tout prend sens.
C'est obscur pour toi, ami lecteur, j'en conviens. Ce billet est de ceux que j'écris surtout pour moi.

Mainstream
I'm afraid I might be going mainstream. All my hopes of being somewhat original are in the process of being utterly and totally shattered.
I promised a friend I'd get a TV if she ended up presenting a small show on the local television, and it seems that's what is going to happen. I've been talked into acquiring a webcam.
So yesterday, as I was drooling before a huge collection of underpriced CDs, I figured it wouldn't do much difference to my case if I put a link to my Amazon wishlist somewhere on my weblog. If I'm going mainstream, might as well go all the way!
Yeah, I got an ebay account, too. And let's not forget the hair, either.
Note: boys, stop dreaming. You're not going to see this here anytime soon!
Can and Cannot Change
We can change some of the things that bother us about ourselves.
The others, we cannot. We can just be lucid about them, take them into account in the way we live our lives, and do things differently to prevent them from messing things up.

Pink!
As I haven't posted photos here in ages, and I know you lazy things don't regularly visit the dump, I'll jump on the occasion. I finally took the plunge to get some colour in this hair of mine. I've been thinking about doing this for the last year or so!
I will provide an RSS feed for the dump someday.

Catamaran à vendre
A vendre: catamaran French Cat (1987) de 7m10 par 3m50, peu utilisé, démontable, habitable (4 lits dans les coques). A vendre en l'état — il a passé une bonne dizaine d'années sur sa remorque derrière la maison de mon père. (Il faudra abattre la haie pour le sortir, mais ce n'est pas grave et on s'en occupe.) Prix à discuter.

Photo Session
Mark took a couple of photographs of me when I went to visit him a few weeks ago. The result is now online for you to peek at and enjoy. Thanks, Mark!

What a girl needs...
- Well, I don't need this. Why should I bother? I can do without it very well.
- If you strip everything you don't need out of your life, it ends up being pretty bare. What makes life worthwhile is precisely all these things you can do without: a warm bubble bath, gloves in winter, an umbrella when it is raining, food served on a pretty table...
