Back from the Deads.

Uuuuughh. You all though I was gone. Well no I'm back from my grave zombie style for a last post. Nice concept uh? Nah I only though last week's post was the final one.

For this one I'll respond to the question that everyone is asking me: ''Eh! What are you doing during the Christmas Holidays?'' Well I will be pretty busy.I'll be working most of time, even on Christmas Eve and the 25th. I will try to go home to see the family once and go snowboarding, if I find someone with a car willing to go with me. One of my friend got a job in Calgary so I'm organizing a party for him before he leaves. During the few free times that I will have I'll probably play guitar and video games while eating the delicious food that my girlfriend makes. Oh and my roomate got a cat, named Jean-Marie, so I guess I'll try to teach him somes tricks, even if I doubt that it will work. I have to do some exercises in german too, if I want to be ready for next semester.

Here you go, I hope this answered all your questions!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

This is the End, my friends, the End.

Hello everybody!

This maybe the last post on this blog. Man time flies. I know most of you are probably crying while reading this (I understand your pain I shaved my moustache, what a lost for mankind) but the semester is over. Maybe I’ll post some other things one day I don't know. I really enjoyed the project though!

I know I didn't really do any justice to the blog's name, since I did not talk about snowboarding even once, so here I go: I love snowboarding and I can't wait to hit the slopes this winter. Voila.

I have two last video to share with you guys. The first one is a really nice Christmas song that I found some days ago. Some of you may already know it since it is pretty popular, but this version is awesome. Even if I'm not the religious type, this song reminds me of the Christmas with my family when I was young where my grand father always gathered us to sing it. Great memories.

Enjoy.

The second video is one of my favourite of all time. It always brings tears of joy to my eyes when I watch it. For everyone who loves traveling like me, this should be a source of inspiration. That guy's my hero.

I wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

The 99%.

I’m pretty sure everyone is aware of the "Occupy" movement going on in around the globe. Most major cities, and even smaller towns, have those small camps where people put up tents and signs to protest against the economy and social inequality. Their slogan "We’re the 99%" can be seen everywhere in the medias and on the web, referring to the vast concentration of wealth among the 1% of income earners compared to the other 99%. The first Occupy movement in North America was in Wall Street, New York, and got lot of attention of the media and since then other sites appeared everywhere in the United States and Canada. At first, it seem like a good idea in my opinion and I was happy to see that young people like me were still interested in politics and economy, and that they were for peaceful protestation and open minded discussions.

But four months passed since the first Occupy movement in Kuala Lampur and two months since the now famous "Occupy Wall Street", and I changed my mind about it. The movement doesn’t seem to mean anything for those who are still protesting in the camps. It’s all over the news now that they only seem to bring problems instead of solutions to our world. From altercations with the police to drug overdose (a young girl even died in Victoria), the remaining protesters aren’t the peaceful young people that wish to change the world, but mostly people that saw opportunities to cause trouble and homeless people. Like here in my town, there’s still a small Occupy camp each Saturday full of hippies and signs full of spelling mistakes. I went to the camp once because some girls were doing a gumboot choreography and I wanted to discuss the movement with them. I had a hard time finding someone who wasn’t too drunk or way too high in the camp. I finally found a group in a wild discussion. I was disappointed when I understood that they were discussing about what they should eat at the canteen next to the camp. One of them had puke all over his shirt. I ended up playing soccer with them all the afternoon. I had a great time, yes, but I think it is now time for this movement to end since it ain’t going anywhere now before it gets even worse.



Hehehe. He's ''Shellfish''. And he wears a hat.



Wut.

Hey I don’t know if there’s any fans of Francis Cabrel reading this, but I am. I heard something strange some days ago, and I couldn’t believe it. So I checked on Internet and the rumors ended up to be true. Shakira made a cover of Cabrel‘s song “Je l‘aime à mourir”. My first reaction was to be somewhat angry that she did that (not that I have anything against Shakira, I think she’s very hot) but after listening to the song, I changed my mind. I think it was a good idea to sing it in spanish, even if I am a german student, but for a song like this one, I have to admit that spanish kept most of its strong feeling. I am not sure that english or any other langage could do the same for this specific song. But that's just me.

So check it out and feel free to comments. (I’m looking at you spanish students).

November as Come (almost).

Hell Yeah. It’s Halloween, one of my favorite days of the years. There are zombies and girls in sexy outfits everywhere. My costume is ready, the beer’s in the fridge and ‘‘The Night of the Living Dead’’ is in the DVD player. And when the night will come I’ll be fooling around in the streets with my friends like kids fueled by the Halloween's spirit!

Even though I could write an entire blog only on Halloween and the things to do on this day, I’ve chosen to talk about something else. Starting tomorrow it’s November, or as many are calling it, Movember.

Movember is a fund and awareness campaign for men’s Health, especially for prostate cancer where men let their moustaches free in the gentle breeze. This movement started in Australia in 2004 and now they have 119,000 members only in Canada and they have raised 22,3 millions dollars for Prostate Cancer Canada. All around the globe we should see men showing their facial hair to support the cause and it should a sight to behold. I guess it’s a good idea to make this kind of event to help us men to think about our health and to think about maybe changing our habits. I am proudly growing mine and to be honest, girls are going wild when they see such an example of fine moustachery.

Hey and did you know that the oldest mustache that we are aware of is from 300 BC? Yeah even back then they were rocking it with sweet upper lip facial hair.

So boys, it’s time to let your mustache grow! Let’s make Tom Selleck proud! And it is getting pretty cold outside and a warm fuzz in the middle of our face is always welcome.

If you need any help to find the right style of mustache that fits you, here are some ideas.

When Hell is full the Dead will walk the Earth

 - Hello.

Tonight is the premiere of the season 2 of the TV show The Walking Dead. It is been a year since the first season so i'm pretty excited. For those who don't know The Walking Dead, it's an awesome TV serie about a zombie apocalypse with a great cast like Andrew Lincoln in the main role and Sarah Wayne Callies (who played Sarah Tancredi in Prison Break).

I cannot wait to see if they will follow the story of the comic book wich the serie is from, as the last episodes of the first season showed a big difference with the book. If the season 2 stay close to the story we will have some great moments of televions. Even if they do not, well it still about zombies so they cannot go wrong.

Yeah.
