Fräulein Coffea once again...

and then I came to think I should try a salad and so I tried one with feta and honey-mustard-dressing and it was as good as it looked. there were some nuts in it, too and then olives and herbs. It was really tasty and a good alternative to the insalata funghi@scoozi that I usually eat when I have cravings for a fresh salad...even though I do not like the atmosphere of that place... and then it often takes just too long...seems like they only have on person working there at hours when business people and co are pretty busy and cannot wait half an hour for a salad...
anyway...I can recommend the salad, have a look:

it was pretty crowded at this time of the day when you would not really expect many people in an out-of-town place like this... but seems like people know what good is...
this salad was one more reason to come back...one more detail: the cutlery was wrapped like a gift and the colour of the napkin matched the colour of the salad...^^
coming back again and bringing some more friends....thank u.

Fräulein Coffea
Und zwar genau dort, wo es früher stattdessen einen kleinen Laden gab, der Streetwear von lokalen Designern verkaufte.
Auch dorthin hatte ich es damals nie geschafft, weil ich auf dieser Seite der großen Kreuzung, selbst, wenn es nur ca. 5 Gehminuten von mir entfernt ist, nur selten bin...
Nun ja, in letzter Zeit kam man doch schon mal öfters wieder auf dieses kleine Café zu sprechen und so gingen meine Freundin und ich an einem Mo in meiner Mittagspause auch einmal bei schönem Wetter los, um das neue Café, das schon so viel von sich reden gemacht hatte, mal auszutesten. Aber leider - war ja klar - war gerade montags der Tag, an dem geruht wird.
Dennoch, nur von außen sah es schon sehr einladend und charmant aus.
An Ostermontag bin ich dann abends nochmal daran vorbei gelaufen und habe von draußen nochmal einen kleinen Blick reingeworfen und war ganz verzückt.
Und dann als ich heute, auf dem Weg zur Uni vollgepackt mit Kamera und ner fetten Reisetasche mit meinen ganzen Sneakern, die Oskar Hoffmann-Str. entlang lief, ergriff ich ganz spontan die Gelegenheit beim Schopf und gönnte mir bei dem schönen Wetter einen ganz vorzüglichen Chai-Latte in der Sonne vor dem wunderschönen Fräulein Coffea.
Dieses kleine Café hat einen ganz speziellen Charme, nicht nur durch eine familäre Atmosphäre. Gleich, wenn man es betritt, fühlt man sich wohl. Man schaut sich um und ist einfach nur begeistert von der Liebe zum Detail, mit der dieses kunterbunte Café eingerichtet wurde. Ein mit bunten, ausgeblasenen Eiern dekorierter Osterstrauch ziert derzeit noch die Kaffeetheke und aus einem Tante-Emma-Drops-Glas darf man sich etwas Süßes für den Weg mitnehmen, wenn man möchte.

Serviert wurde mein leckerer Chai-Latte auf einem süßen weißen Unterdeckchen mit Spitze und dazu gab es nicht wie sonst überall ein Amarettini, sondern leckere Schoki mit Erdnüssen. Some more tiny little details that make this place so special to me.

Es gibt eine große Auswahl an Heißgetränken, aber auch diverse andere Softdrinks wie Bionade und Co.
Außerdem gibt es eine große Auswahl an leckerem Kuchen, Torten, Stullen und Salaten, alles zu einem fairen Preis und alles nicht ausschließlich, aber ziemlich BIO.
Die Bedienung ist auch sehr freundlich.
Fräulein Coffea hat geöffnet von Di-Fr von 8.30-18.00 Uhr und an Wochenenden von 11.00-18.00 Uhr, montags wird geruht.
Draußen gibt es auch genügend Sitzmöglichkeiten, vor und neben dem Fräulein Coffea, auf bunt zusammen gemixtem Retro-Mobilar. Fernab von allem Bermuda-Trubel ist es doch sehr angenehm, trotz Verkehr, in ungewohnter Umgebung, mitten auf dem Gehweg, einen Kaffee zu trinken.
Das bedeutet, dass ich in Zukunft sicherlich öfter einen Abstecher auf die andere Seite der Kreuzung machen werde, um vor der Arbeit oder vor der Uni, den Tag gemütlich mit einem Kaffee und einer Zeitung bei Fräulein Coffea beginnen zu lassen oder werde in meiner Mittagspause einen kleinen Spaziergang durchs Bermuda machen.
Solche kleinen, besonderen Plätze mit hohem Wohlfühlfaktor braucht Bochum...
Vor lauter Starbucks, Extrablatt, Cafétiero und Co. - schöne, individuelle Plätze sind in Bochum wirklich rar gesäht. Für mich zählen dazu: das Café Zacher, Ebstein, Orlando und vor allem die Röstart, der aber Fräulein Coffea gerade durch diesen ganz besonderen Charme mächtig Konkurrenz macht. Fräulein Coffea, du bist ne Wucht!!
Folks, forget about Starbucks and Co.You need Fräulein Coffea, situated a bit out-of-town @Oskar-Hoffmann-Str.34, but definitely worth going all the way down there.
Open Tuesday-Friday from 8.30am-6.00pm and Saturday-Sunday from 11.00am-6.00pm, Fräulein Coffea does not only offer good coffee and tea, but also a wide range of delicious cakes and sandwiches, most of it organic, for a fair price. This tiny little café attracts through a lovely interior decoration and furnishing with tiny little details and beautiful colours. Once you get in you feel pretty much at home. There are also seating options outside, either right on the pavement or around the corner, in a kind of terrace atmosphere...
I think I have fallen in love with Fraeulin Coffea. That is exactly what Bochum needs. Thumbs up!!

kodok-hada
but the more u think about it...the more u realize...this being kodok-hada...is kind of ...well let´s describe it by a word...isn´t it a kind of escapism?
escaping from being lonely, from experiencing the feeling of loneliness, escaping from getting hurt, getting dumped, possibly being loved by someone thus escaping from this huge responsibility... escaping from responsibility...yes I guess that might be the main point about this whole kodok-han thing...
if u were all an your own then u would not have to justify yourself in front of other people... wouldn´t that be great? not having to care about what impact your actions might trigger out...
but hey... I guess that is just a farce... if there were no one caring for you and possibily judging what u do...all u do would make no sense...
would u wanna live on your own...what if u were the only person on earth? would u wanna be beautiful...would u care about your outer appearance if there was no one to judge about it? would u care about being stupid? if there was not anyone to test your skills?
I know... we should live for ourselves and not care about what other people might think about us...
but no one.... no one is free from it...
but that´s ok otherwise life would be pretty boring...
sometimes I hate myself for caring too much about what people might think about my actions... even though it seems as if I did not give a damn... because I lack words...because I tend not to communicate whenever I feel down...I just carry on with my normal life by pretending not to care even though hell yeah I do...and while I am living, breathing, working, laughing, hanging with friends...my head is still thinking about it.... and here we go again...the main problem is head and heart...in correlation with us human beings... both of em keep on telling each other what to do... so we end up not knowing where to go...
I love my heart, but I hate my head...
설마...
어른쪽의 차는 그사람의 차가 아니겠지?
that would be quite a coincidence... anyway it ain't matter...
at least by then my superstar sleek were still yellow... must have been a year ago or so... well it has been been almost a year that I started to take em all on tour... silly me... oh no, I ain't got much time... I am pretty busy... believe it or not... still I'll keep doing what I do...
déjà vu..?
I remember last time when we met... when my friend came around the corner with her headphones on and before we even got to say hi I had already started to shoot on her...hehe
well, guess that´´ll happen again every once in a while...today I was kind of handicapped because I had someone on the phone when she appeared on the spot.... but yesterday it was so refreshingly spontaneous again... I cannot quite put it into words, but as I told her today...I like the way she looks on pics...there are some people who cannot appear natural in a pic...because as soon as they get to look in a cam...they start to pose too hard or so...
but she is so...pure...
I need some more victims, though...^^ hola, where ya at?
by the way...she is wearing an obey tri-blend (25%rayon, 50%polyester, 25%cotton) tee for men... I like that style... oversize-fitted tee with a tight skirt... the colour suits her really well... I need to get a men tee, too!!^^
my dear friend...
good to have you...with your smile back...
and your protective onni cannot help, but just love how you just listen to your heart...
다 잘 되기를 정말로 바래...너는 네가 넓은 마음으로 사랑을 많이 해주는 대로 바로 그 똑같은사랑을 어느 날에 돌려 받기를 그것도 되게 기도해줄게...사랑해...
top ten hi easter pack



have not even worn them once, but took them on tour...they look so beautiful in this shining yellow... are my third pair of yellow sleeks...got the pro model fafi sleeks and the superstar sleek in yellow, too...but as I have worn them quite a lot they ain´t look that nice anymore... so I consider just takin them around to take pics and not wearing them whatsoever...on the other hand...I actually wanted to only take the top ten low sleek on tour... would be no fair...if I just swapped...

good night
I wish my heart would not hurt anymore so my head would not have to care any longer...
I wish my mind would not bother anymore so my head could stop thinking all day and night...
I wish I could have some one else´s thoughts...so mine would not weigh that heavy anymore on my heart...
good night...
