Kanon x Kanon in Berlin

Last week's Friday, I've attended another very interesting event!
Kanon x Kanon were in Berlin for their Europe tour kanonxkanonxkanon and I was there!

Kanon x Kanon are Wakeshima Kanon and Kanon from An Cafe. I didn't know much about them, but I had a Wakeshima Kanon CD before and decided, it would be fun to go!

It was SO cold - first minus degress this winter - but there were so many girls, dressed as lolita, waiting outside. They must have the greates heat inside their bodies, because I was wearing triple layers and still freezing!
Luckily we were able to go inside really quickly, where I bough a Kanon x Kanon T-shirt (so cute!) and ... for no reason whatsoever ... bismark doughnuts (Why are they called bismark?? In Germany, they're called Berliner and in Berlin pancakes ... funny, huh?).

Concert started of really great. Wakeshima Kanon-chan started with a 30 minute solo performance, filled with songs from her two albums. She worked really hard and did her best, but she had cought a cold and somehow her energy was a little low. But that's alright! I mean, she was ill and still went on stage and looked gorgeous!

Then it was Kanon-san's part ... and it was a little weird. He wasn't singing or playing bass, he was just the DJ, standing behind his laptop, playing Anime videos with techno for half an hour. It was really weird ... and loud.

FINALLY, they appeared togeth for the last 30 minutes! She sang different songs with him playing bass and they were also dancing and covering anime songs. It was really great!
I totally love "Dolls" ... or what the name was...

I'm a little sad Kanon-chan hat only two outfits ... she should have worn more, because she always looks beautiful!

You can check a few impressions here! Lau.chan and I made this video together (well, again, I'm behind the camera, when she's speaking...):

Renai Birthday and University fears

As I've told you before, on Thursday was my group's birthday and yesterday we all went to celebrate.
Well ... sadly not all, two couldn't make it.


Gena, Laureen and I went together, because we've spend the afternoon with sewing ... or rather Gena, who actually knows what she's doing, tried to beat some skills into us ... sorry for being bothersome!


Like last year, we went to Ishin restaurant, because it's good and not too expensive!
Haaa... and it was GOOD!

All in all, we were Gena, Giny, Nikki, Mina, Laureen and I. Nice group of 6 people.


But a bigger problem is on its way. Tomorrow I'm enrolling in university and I'm really scared!!
Not if people will be nice and such.

I'm continuously asking myself: "Was it the right decision?" "Should I've chosen an apprenticeship?" "Am I studying the right subjects?" "Can I handle the work?" "Can I make it in 3 years?" "Do I actually know how to learn after over 3 years?" "Will I be successfull?" "Am I ruining my damn life?!"

I am so scared ... I've had so much time and still I can't believe, it's already tomorrow. Time really flies in the blink of an eye.

I hope, I can finally be happy...

Don Xuan Berlin

Heute mal auf Deutsch, weil immer mal was Neues und so, ne? Vielleicht schreib ich ja morgen in dem bisschen Französisch, was ich zusammenkrieg, mal schaun.

Schon eine Weile kenne ich den Don Xuan Laden in Berlin Lichtenberg, der sowas wie Little Vietnam ist, nur miefiger ... naja, ich war noch nie in Vietnam, deswegen glaub ich das einfach mal. In den letzten Tagen stellte sich jedoch heraus, dass ich peinlicherweise die falschen riesengroßen Lagerhallen für den Don Xuan hielt. Das ist aber auch gemein gemacht! Die liegen nur ungefähr 1-2 Kilometer auseinander an derselben großen Kreuzung. Aufgebaut sind sie auch ähnlich. Kann ja mal passieren, oder?

Bei der größten Mittagshitze machte ich mich also heute auf, den richtigen Markt zu erkunden, von dem mir immer erzählt wurde. Die Straßenbahnlinie 16 fährt bei mir direkt vor der Tür und laut bvg.de braucht man von der Haltestelle Herzbergstraße/Weißenseerweg nicht lang, denn es sind ja nur 300m. Jetzt weiß ich nicht, welcher Riese diese 300 Meter beschritten hat, aber er hat definitiv einen an der Waffel. Ich hatte das Gefühl ich laufe einen ganzen Kilometer bei brütender Hitze ... ich hätte schwören können hinter dem ein oder anderen Wärmeflackern eine Hyäne sitzen zu sehen. Nicht dass ich dadurch schneller gelaufen wäre.
Die M8 fährt hingegen direkt vor dem Eingang los.

Verfehlen kann man es jedenfalls nicht, denn ein protziges Tor; ich weiß nicht, wer da was kompensieren muss; weist auf den Eingang. Auf dem Gelände findet man 4 große Lagerhallen mit den Nummern 1, 2, 3 und (weiß der Geier wieso) 8. Ich nehme an, ich habe 4 bis 7 einfach übersehen.
Im Großen und Ganzen findet man dort drinnen Ramsch, Essen und Beautysalons. Da ich schon mal in China war, kann ich sagen, es ist ähnlich, nur haben sie hier mehr Platz, dafür aber weniger Raubkopien. Ja, es muffelt, es ist Dunkel, aber es ist ein Erlebnis. Obwohl meine Schuhe furchtbar gerieben haben (ich hab jetzt Blasen und Schriemen wie nach der Geißelung) bin ich durch alle 4 Hallen gelaufen, das soll wohl was heißen.
Gekauf hab ich nichts, außer ein paar Lebensmittel. Na ja, nächstes Mal.
Zum Schluss gab es noch einen Bubble Tea von BoBoQ (?), die tatsächlich süße Hello Kitty Deckel haben. Irgendwie ist es aber auch merkwürdig, da man, um ans Getränk zu kommen, einmal den Strohhalm mitten durch Kittys Stirn stoßen muss. Ein seltsames Gefühl. Ich hatte auch zum ersten Mal richtige Tapioca Perlen, statt Fruchtperlen und sie sind irgendwie widerlich. Sie sind glitschig, klebrig und müssen gekaut werden, statt wie andere Perlen, die schön platzen. Der Tee war jedoch lecker.
Danach ging es einfach nur zu Hause, um meine blutenden Füße zu baden.

Jetzt gewittert es, genau hier über meinem Wohnort und ich glaube, die Welt geht unter.

Bubble Tea in Berlin

Bubble Tea or Boba Tea is a phenomenon, that's gettin bigger in bigger around the world. Invented in Taiwan during the 1980s, it has now made its way all to Germany.
So far I only knew Bubble Tea Bars in western German cities and one in the western part of Berlin at the Kudamm, which is still very far away for me.

BUT NOW! A new Bubble Tea Bar oppened at Hackescher Markt (names aren't my fault...)
I got to know it today around 10am and at 4pm I was there and bought my very first Bubble Tea.



The sort is called "Honeydew" and has honey melon with black tea and milk. My boba bubbles were Lychee taste. It was really good!! But tasted nothing like tea. Still, I wish I had the bigger size, not only small to try it out.

The bar is really cute. Smal, but nice. They have 13 sorts of drinks, but you can also have your own bubble tea mixed. Price is 2,70€ for small with 0,30€+ for some special boba bubble sorts.
You can also buy small cakes, which I didn't try. But they seem to be really good, because there were only 5 pieces left.

Well, I hope you can try it out, soon.
