English
This is the part of the stupid stamina run where I slow to an almost-halt, lungs burning, and keep stumbling along at a zombie-walk ... oh it is so tempting to just collapse on the track right here. The finish line is RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME and yet ...

supersizemeeee thoughts
I just finished watching Morgan Spurlock's 2003 documentary Super Size Me. Various thoughts of mine during/after film, numbered for your convenience notreally... gives this a semblance of order, but really these are just random.
1. Damn I want McDonalds now ... no. Not any more.
2. Mmm chicken nuggets ... ewwwwww chicken nuggets, I am now going to attempt to avoid chicken nuggets (and sausages) now
3. WHY DOES FAST FOOD TASTE SO GOOD EURGH
4. I'm glad I don't actually like soft drinks much.
5. If I ever become some kind of illustrator/cool graphicsy person, I am not going to do advertising/marketing work for fast foods. Or just non-healthy foods. Or maybe I will, if I happen to be REALLY REALLY BROKE or if my life depended on it but I really don't want to use any skills/etc I have to promote something that's actually shit for your health. ...This is now spiralling into a general pseudo-manifesto thing regarding advertising/etc. - I do not want to do work for anything I personally find sufficiently reprehensible. Also, if I ever ever ever happen to get amazingly famous and asked to do product endorsements, I will not do them unless I actually like/approve of the product and it's not something health-harming.
6. Lol fast food, shit, I think I'm going to attempt to not eat at KFC/McDonalds so much when I go out now hahahhaha
7. Vegetarianism. Maybe I will seriously take a crack at it one day ... more seriously.
8. I need exercise. After HSC I will get some kind of regular exercise thing going. And now I should stop eating so much junk food ... yeah ...
...lol crap I'm not used to posting blog posts that have this much thought in them, which of course just shows how much thoughts most of my entries normally have.

Vivo per lei // german half
Ich leb' für sie, genau wie du
Leben wir ohne sie kein Leben
Sie ist in mir, was ich auch tu'
Sie gibt mir Halt und lässt mich schweben
Sie hilft mir, alles zu verzeihen
Würde mich nicht [...] befreien
[...]
Ich lebe für sie
[...] finde ich nicht wieder
Ich leb' für sie, in Glück und Schmerz
Werd' sie zu mein ... ?
Manchmal erschüttert sie mein Herz

Ich...lerne...ja.
Bald habe ich eine Deutschprüfung! Wunderbar! Es ist nicht Schreiben, Lesen oder Hören, sondern ... SPRECHEN! Und außerdem ist es LEISTUNGSKURSDEUTSCH! Fantastisch! Ich bin so aufgeregt! :D
... Ich prokrastiniere. Also. Es gibt viele Worte, die ich lernen/wissen muss.
die Diskriminierung = discrimination
etw. als selbstverständlich betrachten = to take sth. for granted
vollkommen = completely, utterly, etc.
überfordert = overwhelmed
zu etw. führen = to lead to sth.
Das nerviges Problem mit Sprechenprüfungen ist, dass es irgendwie schwer zu üben ist, wenn man allein ist.UND JETZT BIN ICH ALLEIN, SO ALLEIN ... ich will zugehören! Im Moment habe ich niemand, mit dem ich Deutsch sprechen kann und es ist ziemlich lästig. Ich fühle mich ein kleines bisschen albern, wenn ich Selbstsgepräche führe ... interessante Ausdruck, "Selbstgespräche führen"...
Motivation.
verbessern = to improve
verschärfen = to exacerbate
Heute stehen viele junge Leute unter Stress auf Grund solche Sachen wie Gruppenzwang, etc. etc... Die Menge von Hausarbeit und das furchtbare Ding namens "HSC" können diese Situation nur verschärfen!!
...Don't take that seriously, it was just random bullshit XD
Wir mussen den Vorschriften entsprechen. Ich muss mich nach dem Gesellschaftssystem richten.
etw. entsprechen - to conform to sth
sich nach etw. richten - ditto above
in mancher Hinsicht = in some respects
in jeder Hinsicht = in all respects
verschärfen, verschärfen...
verschlimmern
zu einem Anstieg führen = to lead to an increase
Stress abbauen = to reduce/alleviate Stress
erleiden = to suffer
aufrechterhalten = to maintain
Es ist wichtig, gute Beziehungen mit anderen Menschen aufrechtzuhalten.
aufrechthalten aufrechthalten aufrechthalten
beneficial: vorteilhaft, günstig
gut fürs Geschäft - good for business
gut für die Gesundheit - beneficial to health
schädliche Auswirkungen - damaging impacts
verursachen - to cause
Es ist wissenschaftlich bewiesen worden, dass Rauchen schädliche Auswirkungen auf die Gesundheit hat. Es verursacht viele Krankheiten, zum Beispiel Lungenkrebs.
erhöhern, vergrößern - to increase
abnehmen - to decrease
umso - all the more
Je mehr man lernt, desto deutlicher wird es, wie viel man nicht weißt...?
...I can feel the confidence draining away with every word I speak...

Backup career:
I've decided if I'm short of money any time in my life or something, I'm going to take a shot at writing hack novels. You know, those generic brainless purely-for-entertainment paperbacks that have not an iota of depth. Or even just to make some extra dollarzzzzz.
:D HAHAHA I AM SO COOL

Mindblowing moment of today:
I found out that "renege" is apparently pronounced "ren-egg" or "ren-ig". Can I just say, WHY IS THERE AN 'E' THERE ON THE END THEN? I know, I'm implying that English spelling has some kind of logic, but whatever. Seriously that looks like a French derivative or something, I've actually been saying "renezh" (or things similar) all my life. Which I personally think sounds so much better... yeah okay back to 4u now. Stop laughing/staring at me.
