- Here we go :)
- You should travel as much and as often you can. It will not happen to you if you constantly postpone it, in the end you realize time flew and nothing happened. Learn a new language, even a basic level can give you pleasure of knowing how to say something in another language. It's fun as hell, not to mention useful. If you are in a bad relationship, get out of it and run as far as you can. Who ever got out of a bad relationship wished it had done it earlier. I should have put this first. Don't miss a chance to go and see your favourite musicians, I'm saying this because can you imagine how people who said: "Njaaah, we'll see Nirvana next time..." feel? Don't be afraid to take risks, of course we fail but more often we strive. That why it's worth it all. I've taken some risks this year and don't regret any of them. I just know that I will not ask myself why didn't you take that chance. I can't bullshit about this too much, but keep your physical health at it's top, you'll be thankful later. Exercise the body for a cheerful mind and vice verse. Don't let to be determined by gender rolls. Stating that in your days women didn't do that or this is a man work, you won't persuade anybody not even yourself. Quit a job that doesn't satisfy you. Of course you have to pay the bills, but that doesn't mean that you should suffer a bad job over that. Looking for a better job doesn't require money, takes good will of the individual. And for my lovely students, try hard in school, not because school grades have any effect on where you'll end up in life , but because one day you'll realize how cool it was to be able to spend the whole day learning new things. Be aware of your beauty, most of us spend our youth thinking we're not pretty enough, but those are our best years. Say I LOVE YOU! Don't be afraid of it, just say it. Once you're old, it will not matter that the love wasn't returned, but not letting the person you love know how you feel. Listen to your parents advice. The things they say about life are usually true. Think about other people, do some charity, by charity I don't mean join an organization and donate money just help someone in need when you can. Your little counts in large amount. Fuck other people opinions, what you are should matter only to you. Just remember in 5/10/20 years those people won't be around, and their opinion will not matter then as it shouldn't matter now. Don't put other people need before yours, carrying is wonderful but not at expense of you own dreams. Act on something, do more, fulfill the desire. When people think about how much time they needed to start something, to get it done, they realize the time that had gone wasted. Reach out Serbia is one of the best things that I started this year with 5 more lovely people who support me. Don't hold grudge, especially to the ones you love. What's the point of reliving the anger that you feel? Stand up for yourself, no one should raise their voice at you. Volunteer. You'll feel sad for not contributing to the world and making it a better place. Respect your elders, they hold so much knowledge and wisdom. Go straight to your grandparents if you have one, since they won't be around forever. Don't work to hard or spend more time than it's needed at work. On your dying bed you would want to have spent more time with your family and friends not in an office. Finish what you started, the process may be hard, but the results are compelling. If you have kids, spend more time with them, play around make fool of yourself. My father told me how my journey from being his little girl to becoming a woman went in blink of an eye. Sometimes you should let people go, people change, you change. In friendship there should be no strings. No hidden catch, no strings attached, just Freelove. Also meet new people be open toward them, give everyone an equal chance you never know. Do some public act, on a stage, catwalk or on TV or radio. Just a few days ago I was on a radio air and it was amazing to hear my voice on a broadcast. Don't worry so much, in the end most things that we worry about never actually happen. And last but not least. Show gratitude. At the beginning it's hard to see it, but in time it becomes very clear that every moment on this planet from those everyday stuff to those glorious ones are a gift that we're happy to share.
- So thank you all for making my 2013 a special year, I hope that this one will be better. I'll do my best to make it so for me and you both
- I want to wish you all you a Happy New Year! Some of you I know for quite a while, others are new in my life, but all of you equally made my year special. No matter what you have planned to see, do or make in 2014, have fun and be safe.

Changes on New Year's day
Depeche Mode Obsession Disorder
Depeche Mode Obsession Disorder
Yeah, you got this right! There are thousands of Depeche Mode Devotees wandering around with this, many of them unaware how serious it is. And it can be contagious! Check out these symptoms to see if you have this condition:
Inability to concentrate on anything other than Depeche Mode and their music, oftentimes leading to job loss, misplacing children, kitchen accidents and bad driving.
Obsessive belief that you are married to one or all of the band members; especially bad if you are already married and are calling out band members names in your sleep. In the most serious cases, you have gotten rid of your mate to make room for the band that you believe is living with you. No one should dig in your back yard.
Suddenly bursting into a frenzy of singing Depeche Mode songs in public, sometimes with violent arm waving. Even more dangerous if you think the band is there singing with you.
Excessive sweating in the presence of any of the band members. This can progress to excessive drooling as well, especially if Dave is present.

Those most seriously affected may suddenly start babbling incoherently or lose the ability to talk at all.
Constantly having to replace your computer when the hard drive fails from being overloaded with thousands of photos and videos of the band, accompanied by permanent damage to your fingers from right-clicking to download the same photos and videos that crashed your computers in the first place!
You barricade yourself in your home with your stash of Depeche Mode photos, videos and music for long periods of time. Many of your friends will believe you died, and some may send the police. No, not the band The Police, the REAL police.
Obsession with the color black. Everything must be black. This can progress to painting your entire body black or dying your pets. If your car windshield is now black, seek help immediately. Preferably not in your own car. Black contact lens should be discarded.
The only number you ever use is 101. Causes a big problem when banking and you no longer get your mail. Unless your house number is 101. And the IRS is not amused.

You wave your arms in a frenzy anytime you hear Depeche Mode music. You wave them uncontrollably anytime you see anyone that looks even remotely like Dave. And you wave them at the police officer while being arrested for waving while driving with your Depeche Mode music at concert volume. You get in more trouble when you sing Barrel of a Gun to the officer to justify your waving. Serious cases of waving will require shoulder surgery.
You have homeland security on speed dial as you are convinced the terrorists are plotting to steal Andy, Martin and Dave from your home. Yes, you think the band lives with you.
You build an addition to your home to store all the Depeche Mode stuff you have bought. You have multiple copies of everything, fearing the supply will run out. Plus you need all the extra walls for the tons of giant posters of the band you had printed from all those photos you downloaded earlier. Just Can't Get Enough! Yeah, that's the song you sing when bringing home more stuff!
You know the words to every song they ever recorded, even the ones on "Ultra", progressing to the delusion that you actually WROTE all the songs yourself and gave them to the band as a love gift.
You buy tickets to every concert even if you can't go just to have the tickets for your Depeche Mode scrapbook. Yes you have scrapbooks. Hundreds of them.

You have multiple arrests for reaching out and touching men that look like members of the band while asking them to be your Personal Jesus. Unfortunately you reached out and touched more than their faith, muttering something about wanting to touch their "Little One"
You tell your psychiatrists (yes you have several of these) that your favorite feelings are those of death, pain, suffering and other things from dark places. With a smile on your face. He thinks you should be committed, but you tell him all Devotees are committed. He does not get it.
You create websites, Pinterest, Tumblr, facebook and other pages for the band, spending hours every day, convinced the world needs this. Urgently! The band told you this, right?
You believe that You Tube was invented as a showcase for Depeche Mode and are outraged that other people are posting videos there. Obviously youtube has been hijacked by Bon Jovi, but you don't know who they are as you only listen to Depeche Mode.
Long term sufferers will progressively lose their ability to walk normally from so many years of dancing "Dave style" around their house. Long supermarket aisles will start to resemble a catwalk, further provoking this behaviour in public; those indulging in the accompanying hip thrusts and ass shaking risk being arrested by store security, Even worse is if they suddenly remove their shirt and dance bare chested. Especially bad if they are female.
You can't visit a dog shelter without breaking into singing "Precious" at full volume. Unfortunately the dogs don't know how to pose and Anton Corbijn is not there to help. Those most afflicted will sing "Precious" when sighting any dogs anywhere, even one. Scares the heck out of the dog's owner,( but the dogs love the sound of the music.)
You think guitars were not invented until the year Martin Gore got his first one; I mean they do sort of look like a synthesizer with strings? Martin invented this, right?
Your friends no longer invite you out for an evening on the town since the night you sang "Soothe My Soul" to the shirtless guy with tattoos standing at the bar because you thought he looked like Dave from behind. He was not Dave, did not get soothed, was definitely not amused and it got ugly.
You have been permanently banned from the local costume store after trying to steal all the feather wings to send them to Martin Gore.
Your front door banner reads "Welcome to My World", but you never answer your door. You can't hear the bell over the concert volume Depeche Mode music that is on autoplay 24/7. Plus you have lost the ability to talk about anything other than Depeche Mode.
Your friends bribe the people sitting around you at Depeche Mode concerts to take photos. No, not photos of the BAND. Photos of YOU making a fool of yourself screaming, waving, climbing on stage, and tossing your panties at Dave, particularly bad since they were the ones you were wearing when you entered the concert. And more photos are taken by the police when you are thown out by security for cussing at the rich people in the front row for not singing the correct lyrics. No, not the band The Police, the REAL police.

SO, WHAT'S THE CURE?
First,if you have a friend that has this disorder, proceed with caution. Under no circumstances should you try to remove them from their safe little Depeche Mode world. Approach them with kindness, playing DM music if you have it (Oh, surely you do? ) Singing a few lyrics may soothe them. They will be just fine, secure in their belief that the band takes care of them. Always. Forever.
If you yourself have this condition, congratulations! You are one of the lucky chosen ones! Everyone that criticizes you is envious. You have DM. They don't. You should share. It is very contagious.

THERE IS NO CURE. NO CURE IS NEEDED. BE CALM. YOU ARE PERFECTLY NORMAL AND HEALTHY. THE REST OF THE WORLD IS SICK AND CONFUSED!
