• Written by Stefan on Sun Aug 24 14:47 Nothing special. Worked yesterday and today I'm watching the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games. Just a relax day. Tomorrow it will be the first real day at school. Life continues, it's good.

• Written by Renée on Sun Aug 24 15:13 How nice of you to ask about our lifes! :)

  Well, this weekend I've been working on work stuff. I had to redo alot of work that I'd already had done before. That sucked! But my boyfriend and I are going to the movies later today to see The Dark Night. I'm curious about that movie! Have you seen it yet? What's the last movie you've seen? Yesterday we went to see Sex and the City. Oh My... I didn't like it at all! I loved the clothes and the shoes and all but the acting was so awfull. I wanted to leave ;)

  Next week I'll have to work again (monday till saturday). So I'll be busy the whole week! I work in a childrens hospital and I find it sometimes hard to deal with their illnesses. It's so sad sometimes. Last friday I even had to cry for the first time. This extremely cute little girl touched my heart. She was an angel and had so much trouble in her short life.

  Maybe I'll witness some deliveries and C sections again this week :)

  Have a nice Sunday!!! xx

• Written by Malinda on Sun Aug 24 17:57 Hi,

  Until Thursday I don't have that much to do..well..maybe a visit to my doctor,because I don't feel that well..My heart is playing a solo and I have a terrible headache and every muscle in my body is hurting..But I'm too scared for he's conclusion to make an appointment..

  On Thursday I also have to go to school for the first time since..eight weeks? So it's gonna be tough..But on the other hand..I'm glad that I have something to do so I don't pay that much attention to my ilness..

  Over two weeks I'm going to see a concert of my favorite band (Besides you;)) so I'm very enthusiastic. The band is called ''Intwine''. You should check them om Youtube and tell me what you think.. But this is atleast one thing that I can look forward to..

  Have a very nice week!

  Malinda

• Written by Malinda on Sun Aug 24 17:59 O and ofcourse..I'm looking forward to your new album too!

• Written by Evelien on Sun Aug 24 18:18 i am going to italy wednesday!!! woohoo i am so excited already..

  have fun rehearsing!

• Written by Bas on Sun Aug 24 18:30 Hi!

  Having a calm sunday afternoon, didn't do that much today. There isn't that much schoolwork to do yet, so I'll just enjoy that while it lasts.

  Tomorrow late afternoon I'll go to Amsterdam with my mother and my sister to have a look at the apartment my sister will most likely move in. She wanted us to judge. I can't really get used to the idea that my sister is actually moving out... On the other hand it will be so much fun because my sister and I, we're like huge friends, so I'll also get a key of that apartment and I'm welcome to stay the night whenever I want!

  It's sunday and that means that tomorrow it's monday and that means I'll have to go to school again by that time. I can't stand that idea, so I'll just enjoy my evening now.

  Bye bye, zwaai zwaai,

  Bas

• Written by dennis on Sun Aug 24 19:56 Hey, how was the lunch?
  Are Norwegian lunches as good as the Danish? My uncle lives in Copenhagen and I got to stay in his appartment this summer for two weeks with my girlfriend. When it was time to go home again, he made us a traditional Danish lunch. It was verry, verry good. First fish, then meat, then cheese.

  cheers,
  dennis.

• Written by milan on Sun Aug 24 20:20 i have bin in the recordstore two times know bud your album is not ther to bad. now i am going to the city to drink some beers. peace

• Written by Lotta on Sun Aug 24 20:31 Hee Maria!

  First @ Milan; the record isn't out yet!:( You have to wait a little bit longer.

  Me and my friends kept eachother up to date today, do you say it like that? Just talked about what happened lately. It's nice to know what's going on with everyone.

  I hope your lunch was nice and you enjoyed it!

  I can't wait to hear more of your songs. Everytime I'm on the internet, i go to youtube.com and sing with every song of you! Well, as far as I can hear it.

  Sorry for my very bad English. Thanks for keeping me up to date, by the way:)

  Love

• Written by Jasmin (Schwetzingen, Germany) on Sun Aug 24 21:23 Hi Maria!
  I wanna take the opportunity to send a sign of life after weeks;)
  Have been at an "aerodrome-day" pretty close to my hometown today. They celebrated 75th anniversary of the airport with a lot of "flight-art" in the air - amazing!!!!
  Thought I should do something crazy and did fly with a Gyrocopter. 15 minutes high up in the air and watching your home/ hometown hundreds of metres above. I really joined this special trip until the final turn.
  What should I say - I felt TERRIBLE in my stomach for hours!!!!!!:(
  No, I would't do it again, BUT I will never forget this wonderful point of view, this excitement, this pure fun (until...);)
  Took some medicine to feel better. After some sleep I'm alive again!! *puuuuuuuuuuh*
  Now my tom-cat and me are joining sunday evening by watching "walk the line" on TV.
  Have a happy week, Maria!:)
  CHEERS!
  **JASMIN**

• Written by Kine on Sun Aug 24 23:16 heej! jeg var på opera, det var litt kjedelig. det skulle egentlig være sånn tekstgreie på sete foran hvor det står hva de synger, men de funka ikke, så der satt jeg og prøvde å forstå. er liksom ikke så fan av operamusikk at det gjør noe, så var litt kjedelig å ikke skjønne hva det handla om engang. så glemte jeg brillene mine i leiligheten vi bodde i, så måtte jeg kjøpe noen på nille, men de hadde ikke min styrke, så kjøpte noen som var litt for sterke, var bedre enn ingenting da og angrer ikke på at jeg dro på opera, tror bare det er en stund til neste gang ;p ellers var min lille oslotur helt super, veldig koselig og på lørdagen gikk vi til grünerløkka og spiste frokost og det tok oss veldig lang tid å komme oss dit siden vi gikk feil, så da måtte vi spise fort og løpe til trikken for å rekke bussen hjem jaaajaa. denne uka skal jeg ikke noe spesielt, på skolen og jobbe bare. MORO! men stilig bilde maria. hade da. snakkas.

• Written by Maria1978 on Mon Aug 25 09:45 I found a seldom interview with a capella singing of Maria Menas last album.

• Written by Tom on Mon Aug 25 18:41 Hey Maria,

  just wanted to tell you about my dream last night *laughs*

  You were pregnant *laughs* Guess I just had the pic in my head with you and the baby.

  But more things happened! You even bought a package of cigarettes and told me that you can't stop smoking (even you were expecting a baby *laughs*) :p

• Written by Tom on Tue Aug 26 08:19 Hey Maria =)

  Good morning!

  Just got your All This Time video =)

  But I have to go to work now, I'll watch it there on my Ipod <3

  Have a nice day!

• Written by Lotta on Tue Aug 26 18:05 I'm so curious about your video All This Time! When can we see it?
  Love

• Written by lotta on Tue Aug 26 20:34 Hello again:)
  Stefan made it possible for me to see a part of your video diary. I totally loved it! You are so honest, so kind and so real! I can't wait to see the rest.
  Thank you, Maria, for being so kind to all of your fans!

• Written by Stefan on Tue Aug 26 22:04 So, let me just share this with you all. Maria made a video diary the month(s) before and during the release of Apparently Unaffected (in 2005). She filmed over 22 hours and the Norwegian televisionstation NRK broadcasted 30 minutes of it. It's extremely honest, Maria tells everything like she wants it to tell. It's an unique document. :-)

  Thanks to the work of Thea (frkeske) and Kine we can read it in English now too. They've put lots of time into translating it. After that Kristy and I putted the subtitles on it, so it is easier to read.

  You all can find it here: Tinyurl.com/6jlepp

  Maria, if you read this message and you are watching yourself at YouTube, do you think this videodiary would be the same if you've recorded it nowadays? Or do you think that it's totally different this time?

• Written by crystal on Wed Aug 27 09:39 going shopping for my dorm, packing, watching american politics. moving on sunday! i'm so nervous and i know i'm going to hate it. haha, living away from home. time to do some damage.

  btw, i liked the videos.
  thanks, stefan.

  think i can relate to how you were feeling then. maybe because i'm the same age now as you were then. going through the same things (really, more similar than you might think).

• Written by milan on Thu Aug 28 23:58 i have seen your video diary it's funny how you live your live.you are pretty smart.

  I am in Karlstad (Sweden) now. We´ve seen so many things in Sweden and the weather was great so on. Every day or two we´re on a new place. Stockholm is a great city. Today we have a day to relax and check emails. ;) If you want you can read where we´ve been on my blog (www.matzeblog.de) if you understand german. ;)
  Tomorrow we drive to Norway. :)

  Your Video is fantastic! And thank you very much for your answers of the interview questions.

• Written by Morten on Sat Sep 06 23:32 Well, the day after your show in Munich (the show was on Wednesday, so that would be Thursday) I went on a weeks holiday to Greece. And at Gardermoen I met you:) You were probably returning from Munich; you were tall and gorgeous, and if I were straight I'd be hoping to meet someone like you:).

  In Greece, I heard you singing Just hold me on the radio, through the open doors of a Greek café.
