...
I failed again with the Nanowrimo. I just didn't had the time to write, and when I had, I wanted to do some things to relax a bit or see my friends. I've been soooooo busy, and I'm still very busy. I've got this thesis that's GOT to be finished on January the 12th. It's about internetdating, so if you've got any suggestions or if you know some facts, or maybe just a site with usefull information, please tip me, because this turns out to be pretty difficult.

Then there's my internship, which is nice, but also hard from time to time, but I'm really getting to know myself (which I thought I already did pretty well, lol). And my work. And the event I've got to organize. And just school. And I really hope I'll finisch this study in June, because it's driving me nuts. After this I want to study Psychology, and I hope I can work a bit, because I love what I'm doing, but it's too much...

Well, some more pleasant news: I love my cute boyfriend!! tongue Okay, that sounds like a teenager, but well, that's okay, I'm still a teenager;) Haha.
And this Friday it's Sinterklaas' birthday. Sinterklaas (Saint Nicholas) is a holiday in Holland. Parents tell their children when their young about Sinterklaas, who lives in Spain and comes every year to Holland, and with his birthday (5th of December) he gives everyone presents. Well, actually their parents do, but the children don't know, haha. Really mean. When I heard he didn't excist (I was nine then), I started crying, I couldn't believe it, but I liked the idea of giving each other presents with poems, just like christmas.

And then about Christmas... I'm not sure if I'm going to make a layout for Christmas. I'm really sorry, but I just don't have the time for it sad

I'm tired and I feel a little... like I'm getting ill or something... I can't. I just can't. So you know.

Thanks for the comments Lotte, Remma and Lauren!

8 things I experienced last week:
1. I started school (like, classes) again.
2. I 'm still working at the school for children with behavior problems.
3. I was working at the homecare service, which I already do 1,5 year.
4. I'm busy with the graduation projects I have to do this year, like a thesis and an event, which has to be organized perfectly.
5. I had a get together with some friends I met in Nicaragua, and 2 of them have a relationship with a Nicaraguan, and so these were joining us=) And we had loooots of fun!
6. I went to the hospital, and I'm asthmatic. I also have bronchitis, it may be chronically, but they're still doing research. I also need to make a X-ray from my stomach and esophagus, and I'm having a lot of medication.
7. I don't have work anymore. They didn't fire me, but they just don't have work for me right now, and I'm broke. When I heard this morning, I cried so hard...
8. So I'm taking the conclusion that life's an apple, and sometimes it's pretty sour. Well, it'll get sweeter in time, I'm sure. Always look on the bright side of life.

Again too long ago!
Omg, I'm so sorry... Again it's more than a week ago, it's not the way I want it, but let's say I'm just pretty busy...
Besides, I love the word lol, but it doesn't mean that it has to comment on my blog a dozen of times! OMG! And I'm just too lazy to figure it out...

Well, I had a lot of fun again... Saw the guy (should we give him a name? It's Dennis, lol) again and we had lots of fun together... The only problem is that he lives in Rotterdam, a city that's not exactly near to mine;) It takes three hours by train, but well, it's all worth it;)

I went to the abbey for the retraite, and it was kind of nice, we had lots of fun and did also a lot of meditation and stuff... I like it, but this was like... too much=P

Then there came a point where the common life started again. Unfortunately I got back to my winterdepression, and today I feel quite depressed... When I look outside, I almost feel like crying... And if things don't work out the way I like them to, I feel too sad, it's just not funny... I wish it was nearly summer, but Remma told me I've got to wait like... four months... Well, for spring, but that's okay. I can deal with spring.
How do you feel about winter and autumn?

Holidays=)
How nice it is, just a week of spare time... I bought myself a nice tea, and I'm just sipping cups of it, I love it!

Well, there's lots more... Last Friday I went to Remma, she was having a birthdayparty, which was really nice! (I think I say nice too much, lol) There were a lot of her collegue-students, and I got a little drunk (A) I don't know what was wrong with me, on most parties I drink lots more, but well... It was pretty funny, though tongue

Then, on Saturday I went to my parents, my mom and I went shopping and in the evening my uncle and aunt came by, which was very nice. I don't see them a lot, so it's good to see them! =)

Sunday my best friend Karin picked me up, and we went to an amusement park and we had lots of fun getting sick in some attractions;) LOL, well, we didn't get sick, but it was like my stomach was running through my body tongue In the night I went to see a really nice guy, but I'll tell you about that later wink

Remma had her birthday on Tuesday, so I went by to see her, had lots of fun again, and well... Yesterday I cleaned my room and I got like fifty books from my mother, which she read when she was younger... So well, my bookcase is filled;) LOL

This morning I went to work and right now I'm realizing I should update more often... Too bad, 12 October was the last update! OMG!

I don't know why, but I feel a little tired and I don't have inspiration to write this blog... Poor me tongue LOL!

Well, next time will be a better post, I promise wink

Xoxo

Lay out switcheeer!
At first, I'm sorry for my lack of updating, I never meant to do that, but I was so busy in my head making much decisions and stuff, so well... I had somewhat like a hard time, but well, let's not discuss that;)

I made a new layout, not because I didn't like the last one, but because I just wanted anything else. The Baila Mi Corazón thing was just too much of everything tongue So, I made this Maria Mena layout, and I really like it, I think, I know it's simple, but it's very relaxed and it makes me feel that way... Well, I'd love to hear what you guys think!

Today was 'De Vier Mijl', 'The Four Miles' in English, and it's a running match in my city. 18000 people joined, and so did my little brother! He did it in 45 minutes, so I'm quite proud, there are a lot of people who took more time, and also who took less, but lol, it was my brothers first time! I hope to join next year too, but if my lungs keep bothering me, I guess it's not a good idea, because it would take me like... Three hours? tongue
There were a few Africans (omg, I hope that doesn't sound discriminating or something, I don't mean it that way, it's just that I don't remember the country they're from, but it's in Africa, lol) who did it reaaaaally great! They ran 4 miles in 17 minutes! OMG! That's 22 km/h! I need to say they're professionals, lol, but there were also great amateurs too, who ran almost the same time!

My sweet and beloved host Remma got her driving liscence last Friday! She did the exam, and she rocked! I'm pretty proud of her!!! =)

Further at college everything's still going fine, I'll go to an abbey in two weeks! Well, just two days of retraite, but well, it seems very special to me, and I'm looking forward to it!

19 and not-19-like layout;)
Monday I turned NINETEEN! YAAY!!
So, I had a lot of parties this week, and right now I'm just chilling out a bit... Plus that I'm having a headache and I'm not quite sure if it's migrane or just a hangover... I guess somewhat like a combination or something.

I also went to the hospital last Friday, they did some more research, and Tuesday they'll tell me what's wrong with me... So I'm pretty excited about it, I'm just soooo affraid they're gonna tell me they couldn't find anything, because I really know there's something wrong...

Besides that I'm starting to miss Nicaragua more and more... I almost want to give up my life here and start a new one over there, but it's not that easy. But I'm just missing the life up there.

And then... I've got a new layout! What do you think about it? I don't know what to think, to be honest. Well, I like it, but I guess it might be a little too much;)
