Random Facts because I feel like it.

- I wish I would think ‘Mad Men’ is amazing but I don’t. It’s ok but I really don’t see why it’s so hugely successful. Chain-smoking pricks who are nasty to women get kind of boring. But John Hamm’s easy on the eyes.

- I grew up hating Brussel’s Sprouts and I want to give it another chance but for some odd reason I’m a bit terrified.

- I don’t know how to cook meat.

- I don’t like reviews. I always get the feeling that the reviewer thinks of himself/herself as superior. I also like having an own opinion and it often disagrees with reviews.

- I am currently reading ‘American Psycho’ and I am shocked and thrilled in equal parts.

- I’ve never watched any of the Godfather films.

- Alexander Skarsgard is my future husband.

- I sing when I snowboard. But never under the shower.

- My left foot is longer than my right foot.

- Working in an office in London is the same as working in an office in Bern.

- In a perfect life I would spend all my time volunteering and being a health coach.

- I wish I had a small dog.

- I like travelling – especially flying – on my own.

- My flatmates and I are currently obsessed with a Danish murder series called Forbrydelsen (The Killing). It’s in Danish with English subtitles. Danish is hilarious.

- I always print out lots of recipes what I never end up making.

- London’s club scene doesn’t interest me in the slightest.

- George was my favourite Beatle.

- I swear a lot. I need to watch the f-word when I’m in the office

- I like random facts.

Last Thursday I made my roommate join me for a jog. She hates running and ended up with a twisted ankle.

So the least I could do was to join her for a swim today.

The thing is.. I hate swimming.

However, as I was swimming my lanes I came to the conclusion that I actually really enjoyed it – I just hate everything else that comes with swimming in pools.
The chlorine, all the people, the water in general (ewww pee!), the part between the shower and getting into the pool, walking around in my bikini… You name it, I hate it. But swimming itself is actually almost meditative.

Nevertheless, my hair smells chemical now. Oh well.

I suppose you could also say that I should choose more natural waters such as lakes or seas but heck I live in London and I sure as hell won’t be splashing around in the Thames any time soon. (After all I’m not David Walliams). So I guess I will have to stick to pools.

But to be honest I’d much rather spend hours in the cinema these days. There are so many great films on right now – I don’t know where to start!

Shame

Somebody give Michael Fassbender an Oscar STAT!

The Artist

A silent film in black and white? You’ve got to be freaking kidding me. Hilarious.

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

Because I wonder what Hollywood’s take on such a graphic book is.

War Horse

I actually like having a good cry every once in a while in the cinema.

Trouble is I have no idea when I would possibly have the time to go to the cinema…

Alright, got to run now. Love, Kx
