  • (t)rain

    the falling water
    hitting the ground
    me soaking wet
    shuffling bodies
    tap-taping all along
    me on the verge
    beep-beep-beep
    buzzing and chattering
    me falling apart
    darkness
    blissful silence
    me at home

  • Review week 27/2025

    Plus

    • I stood up for myself in a situation where I was misgendered
    • started with my case study assignment and got a good overview/concept to build upon
    • started a WordPress blog according to my summer 2025 PACT, accepting that not everything needs to be perfect to begin a new project

    Minus

    • I felt miserable after I advocated for myself, even though I know there is no reason for that
    • didn’t finish my case study assignment
    • delayed publishing of the first post because of overwhelming options while setting up, having these urge of perfectionism

    Next

    • asking myself questions to help me find out, where this bad feelings after an advocacy come from
    • working everyday after work for at least half an hour on the case study assignment
    • keep on publishing a post every day and let the blog evolve organically

    Based upon the Plus Minus Next journaling method from Ness Labs

    Welcome to my place and enjoy your stay.

    …

    Ok, not very much here to see right now. But over the next weeks till the end of August 2025 there will be more stuff added.

    Why till the end of August? And what stuff can be expected?

    After reading the book “Tiny Experiments” by Anne-Laure Le Cunff I’ve made two PACTs. One: I start a blog and post every day an entry until the end of August. Two: I do a weekly review and publish the outcome here in the blog. This way I’ve committed myself for 9 weeks to test the concept of the tiny experiments and evaluate the outcome afterwards.

    So, what can you expect? Well, I presume it will be some kind of creative writing most of the time for the next weeks. Maybe I throw some pictures of non-digital-work-in-progress in there too. Honestly, I don’t know yet what stuff I will post. And that is the point of an experiment – to not knowing the outcome. Or at least of this experiment ;)

    But something I expect is that this blog will change. Maybe I tweak something in the layout. Or I add some social media interactions as I learn more about the functionality of WordPress. It is quite overwhelming at the beginning, so I’m trying out new stuff as I go along.

    For now at least I found out how to write and publish an entry, so one point for me and one post for you. Enjoy!
