Summer.

I am Mareen Fischinger, a photographer in Düsseldorf, Germany.

This blog shows some of my personal life. I mobile-post behind the scene photos and ideas, too – in no specific order.

While I am at it, I am selling my car!

I also run the tumblelogs snpsht.com and Girl Photographer

I have photographed him twice before and come across this guy in tons of publications and ads (here: legal protection insurance brochure). Stefan G. is just a normal man from Düsseldorf with a 9-5 job, who supposedly looks like “the standard business man”, and therefore is being booked several times a month, as he told me.

Fuck, now I am confused with the time.

My alarm clock told me it was an hour earlier than my other clock did and I thought I accidentally had set my phone to another city again (2 days ago it was set to +4:30 Kabul and noone knows why) and changed it sometime during the night to match my other clock. Now my computer clock, which knew we switched to daylight savings, has the answer. Hopefully.
And I don’t have to feel bad for sleeping too long, it was barely eight. My personal economic value.

There are new neighbors. First they fight in an Asian language, and then they sing Asian sounding songs.
Sorry for not being able to tell apart Chinese and Japanese through the walls.

Frank and I went to a party at the Consum complex (similar to the Meatpacking District in NY, but quieter and more closed off with cool offices)

The conversation is over at my end as soon as...

when I am talking to someone, and tell them about something to which they answer “that’s good to hear”, “I’m sure we’ll manage that” or the like, even though it is not at all suitable at that point and simply a hollow phrase.
Really, there is nothing worse than someone who does not listen to what you say, or just has standardized answers. As soon as I notice that, there will be no more voluntary talking with those people. Sickening!

Update: In an email, Jakob pointed out that U.S. English has cross-graded the term Bromide for the phrases (and people).

“ The European Commission is in the process of revising summer/winter time regulations. (Which are standardized for Europe, and were invented in Germany in 1980. High costs and no economic value are being criticized.)
