liljan98 | Origin
liljan means "(the) lily" in Swedish. According to many sources my rather ordinary real name is derived from the hebrew word for lily. In 1997/1998 I spent my semester abroad in Stockholm, where I started to get into this whole "internet thing". I have used that nickname ever since...Calendar

Jumble of Thoughts #007 (Stockholm, Hockey, Books, Grey’s…)
The week in Stockholm passed much too quickly. Seriously, why does time fly when you’re having a great time but seems to only move at snail pace when you’re bored or miserable? There’s a nice Einstein quote for that problem … Continue reading

Looking on the Bright Side of Life, Vol.1
I’m reading A.J. Jacobs new book *Drop Dead Healthy* at the moment (and am really enjoying it, by the way) and in one of the chapters he is trying to let go of all the negative thoughts and adopt a … Continue reading
Jumble of Thoughts #005
For the last few weeks I was in – what I now like to call – “Meredith Grey pre-bomb mood”. “I just need something to happen. I need a sign, that things are going to change. I need a reason … Continue reading
Recounting My First Steps on the WWW

Job Hunting (aka Testing The Waters…)
With all the whining I did recently about my unsatisfactory work situation you might have been wondering why I just don’t try to get another job ? There are a few answers to that, one of them definitely would be … Continue reading
Certified Disability
I had actually wanted to blog about this for ages, but never got around to it, because it’s a complicated matter and it’s not easy to come up with the right terms in English, because the German system seems to … Continue reading
The “Privacy of the Phone” Issue
I had the idea for this post a while ago, but never got around to actually write it. Either my life was too busy or I was not motivated enought (in other words: I was slacking). But than this tweet … Continue reading
Jumble of Thoughts #004
I’m still alive. In case you were wondering. I don’t know what’s been wrong with me recently. Or for a longer while now. Let’s call it the late winter blues. Or something. But… spring seems to be just around the … Continue reading
