monday, work and horse bandaids

Holllerr

Had to go check my knee and pull the strings out form surgery today, wasnt really too pumped about that, until I saw who will be my doctor, what a wonderful 10 minutes. 25, tall, charming and pretty good looking. He gave me a red and blue bandaid with horses and other animals on it. Dont really know whats behind that, anywho, if you ladies need a good (looking) doctor let me know.

Besides going to see hot docs I was working and trying to organize the next few busy weeks, also at work I m blessed with a good looking person who even dares driving around with me. Although the gesture on this picture is absolutely inappropriate Adrian.

To all the people that dont know Capri Sonne, BUY IT, best best best.

Some cini minis at work today made my day.

Besides working and going to the doc I played farmville and had a very interesting conversation with my close friend Selina, for the people that dont speak swiss german, sorry.

Selina :

quick sunday eve thought

After being courtney love for the night I was resting at my place today, my knee isnt really ready to be a rockstar and awake for too long. I woke up at 8am and drove to Berne with my mom, my grandmother is suffering from cancer and is in the last stage. We went to this place where people are being accompanied on their way to death where she is staying since last week. The people working there are wonderful, I have a lot of respect for them. I honestly don't know if I would be capable of working/helping people knowing they will die soon. For me it was very hard to understand why people would wanna stay alive whilst the only thing keeping them alive is a morphine pump attached to them to keep the horrible pain away. The doses they're getting are immense, if we would get a dose like that we would die right away. Apparently the strength of the pain regulates and balances the effect of the morphine. The pain isn't the only suffering, knowing that you will die soon must be absolutely frustrating and not understandable. What keeps a person going that is in a lot of pain and all drugged up? Why wouldn't we choose to die and find peace instead of fighting against a hopeless fight? For me it might be easy to say right now, Id choose to end it before I will be suffering but I guess hope dies last. My friend Mack randomly said "there is no satisfying you" and I said " No, never. Seeking for that since I was born, but thats what keeps people going right?". I wonder if we keep seeking satisfaction, will we forget about how quickly it could end? By constantly striving for satisfaction, we will probably lose our appreciation for what we have right now. So either it is the seeking that keeps us going or it is hope to be rewarded one day for whatever we do. I believe the most important part to achieve satisfaction and peace of mind is to be happy with who we are and try to make best out of each situation we are in. There is this quote from my favourite writer Herman Hesse, (german writer) from his poem "Steps":

"High purposed we shall traverse realm on realm,
cleaving to none as to a home,
the world of spirit wishes not to fetter us
but raise us higher, step by step.
Scarce in some safe accustomed sphere of life
have we establish a house, then we grow lax;
only he who is ready to journey forth
can throw old habits off."

timtams and paw paw

I must say I have the best Athletes !!! Today I had to wake up way too early to take some driving lessons and when I got back home I got a package from Australia in the mail ! Wonderful Anna Segal (XGames winner slopestyle 2009) sent me some timtams, pawpaw, a notepad and a wonderful note. So exciting. Oh and I forgot to mention how excited I am to see the love of my life Marg next week in London, for the poeple who dont know who Marg is; here a skype snapshot from yesterday !

Monday afternoon with lots of love

Since I m still not very mobile with my knee I dont have very much to do, luckily my lovely friend Janne isnt very busy either (besides playing dress up and ridiculously good looking).

He decided to spend some time with me, what an honour. He picked me up at my house and we went for a cruise to buy a beanie. After honking at my 9 year old cousin walking and daydreaming we drove off to Gstaad. Janne had to buy some face cream.. mhm.

After useless walking/crippling around we decided to go hang out at the apple pie.

My dear Aussie friend Marisha joined us.

And of course us looking for Jannes facial products, I didnt know men would be so vain? It took him about 10 minutes deciding which cream would bring out the best of his beautiful baby skin.

After an eventful afternoon I had to go to the vet with my dog Buddy, he was throwing up and felt shit for about 2 hours, a stranger thought it was swineflu. After getting an injection at the vet Buddy was happy and wild again.

Oh and listen to : Black & Blue - Miike Snow

random sunday evening post

Just had to upload the pic of my Athlete Suz Graham, one of the most amazing skiers out there!!

Some random thoughts.. thats what happens if you have absolutely nothing to do.

People try to find satisfaction through outside sources such as materials possessions and relationships. We value other peoples opinion and help, a lot more then we value our intuition/instinct. I assume it is a lot easier to listen to the outside but to find clarification and peace of mind we need to look within ourselves to find what we need and want. Our first reactions when we are feeling empty and needy, are bringing up our situation to the outside and share it, to a certain extend that may be alright. It isnt wrong to get other opinions, but it is important to look at those inputs from a healthy distance and analyse it with our human sense. It can get confusing, especially if you have different counsels from different people. Nobody knows how each of us really feels and in what situation we really are. We fall in the trap of thinking, If I would have this or that I would happy and feel satisfied. When you get the new acquisation you may feel better for a short period of time but in the long run you will realise that it is not what makes you feel happy inside. The only source of fulfillment is by connecting with spirit within. We have to focus on trust and not on illusions.

JA ! we love ze France

Yes another blog update today, I HAVE to, btw to whoever is as bored as me listen to : Calvin Harris - Stars come out, thanks to a special "stranger" for all that new awesome music and for keeping my boredom away : ).


Rule Number one if you go on holidays in ze fancy south of France : NEVER SWIM WITHOUT RED LIPSTICK you mugs. And if you get sick of the wonderfully friendly french people give it a go and speak english with an ultimate cherman accent.

No need for words



As I mentioned above, dont go swimming without red lipstick





My France trip to Eze or however you spell this place started off randomly.
(Like most of the things in my life) My good friend Mich's cousins came all the way from America to Gstaad for a couple of days and I was lucky enough to get to know them. It definitely was love at first sight, atleast for me. On their last night we went out and at 3am Talia had the brilliant idea to ask me if I would like to join them to France. The next morning, I wasnt sure if she was being serious or just in a very good mood the night before. She was being serious, we packed our stuff up and drove via bella italia to France. My new siblings cousins house was great, an old french villa with a huge garden. We had a great time playing poker, deep convos, breathtaking sunsets, sweet tunes, driving around, delicious food and lots of love and being extremely happy to be back in Gstaad. Oh and if you wanna get really tanned, pour Hawaiian tropical oil all over your body and grill like a chicken. If you are lucky you will be as tanned as me. If not make sure you hide in the dark for a few days.

Whistler ROXY

It took me about 3 months writing this Roxy Whistler update - better late then never right.

Wow, Whistler, what an incredible place. My trip started off after I spent 2 weeks with my close friend, Jenny.

Since my knee injury three years ago I am not really a big fan of flying for over 4 hours. My trip to Montreal was 8hours, but luckily I had two seats to myself.

When I landed, my friend JF picked me up, it was good to see him walk properly again after his ankle injury at the X Games in January. We spent one night in Quebec and took off for Whistler the next day. At 2am we finally arrived in Whistler, the flight was long and I didnt feel too well. I was so glad to be back, last time I was in Whistler was 3 years ago and I spent most of my time at physio and Starbucks.

The first few days were bad weather, I was so anxious to try out my new green Roxy skirt. You should all check it out.

Make sure you get the right size so it doesn’t look like a balloon around your hips!

So let me tell you what else there is to do besides watching movies, running to 7/11 buying candy and drinking caramel macchiatos. Skiing! Depends on how long you are staying and your budget, but if you want to be coached by stoked riders you should definitely check out COC. Matt Marggets

and Joe Schuster was coaching, and let me tell you the kids looked super

happy. Or you can meet cool people like my buddy Colby James West in town for a beer or two.

Peak 2 Peak is worth to be checked out as well, its the longest unsupported span in the world. There is even one gondola with a glass floor window.

Whistler is an absolute Bikers paradise. We went on a bike tour to green lake, its breathtaking, the trails are for any kind of bikers.

We were lucky to have our own pool and we spent a lot of time there.

Many of our firends were coaching during the summer at Momentum or COC. It was so good seeing them again. Marg impressed me with his fine earring selection, Ian and Colby with their "my friend is a pro" gig and peter olenick

looked like he came back from a Vogue shooting at the Eurotrash party. My friend Stephy definitely did a great job in being my little city guide and entertainer. Thanks Steph !!

The most important thing I learned in Whis was thats its all about "HANG LOOSE BABY"
