things that turn me off today.

  • Being ill with the flu/cold/whatever only three weeks after getting better from the flu/cold/whatever.
  • Fashion magazines with the following/similar sentence on their cover: What to buy this spring!
  • Snow storms.
  • Wearing my floral doc martens for the 541th time this winter.
  • Small dark stones and dirt on my docs' soles no matter how many times I remove them.
  • The fact it is still... winter.
  • Foggy, grey and overall depressing looking suburban landscape.
  • Grumpy looking people in the train, especially when they sit right in front of you.
  • Talking to my integration adviser (is there such a designation in english?).
  • Not being able to see Shutter Island or any other film tonight in the movies.
  • Not being able to listen to Jacob Holdt talking about the author who wrote the novel which inspired the film Precious, before the film's exhibition sunday morning.
  • Thin and bitter hot chocolate.
  • Coughing while sleeping at night, and then waking up.
  • The snow falling harshly right now. Ouch.
  • Shutted curtained windows 24h/day.
  • Ugly practical waterproof winter jackets. Ew.

Oh goodness, I hate days like those! I hope you feel better soon :)
I have a feeling winter is on its last breath, and soon we'll be on our way to SPRING! At last.

Awww hope you feel better soon. Coughing at night and then waking up from a coughing fit is definitely not the best feeling in the world.
