Why don't I put my fingers on the white walls
16.10.2018
Translation: machine translated
White is a great colour for walls until it is denigrated by external factors. Or at least that's what my father thinks. And (unfortunately) so do I.
I walk down the stairs of my parents' house. I carry a full suitcase, it is already summer holiday time. I almost reach the ground floor, but then it happens: I brush the wall with my suitcase. "Damn," and I start to break into a cold sweat. I fervently hope my father didn't hear anything.
Hail the white walls
My father wants the white walls to stay white. A legitimate wish in itself, but most people would probably not go that far. In fact, even mosquitoes and gnats are an eyesore for him. If while comfortably watching TV the tender hum of a flying creature disturbed me, I was not allowed to swat it with my hands. No, I had to wait until the little animal was resting on the sofa or on me. Clear. I would rather smack it on me than dirty the white wall. .
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree
. Such experiences mark you as a child. And often they mark you so much, that you too become like this: 'No, not on the wall. It leaves disgusting stains,' I shouted to my boyfriend recently, who looked at me in amazement and wondered what else was wrong with me.
Clean up and go
In the meantime, I have learnt how to remove certain stains without using brushes and paint. In fact, if you tap on the fresh stain with a damp cloth, no marks should remain. A kind of magic sponge is also suitable for larger stains. Dampen it, dab it on the dark spot and gone are the traces. I wish I had known these tricks as a child. I would have saved the trip to my father's confessional. .
Do you have your peculiarities too? No matter if inherited, acquired or spontaneously mutated, leave a comment and let me know. Shared suffering is half suffering.
My life in a nutshell? On a quest to broaden my horizon. I love discovering and learning new skills and I see a chance to experience something new in everything – be it travelling, reading, cooking, movies or DIY.
