Vera! It is time!

This post is dedicated to Vera. According to her my blog is awesome (could be true) and as soon as I publish a post, she will start a blog. She will now start a blog. In dutch. Be kind, and read/comment/like her. She is awesome! The adress will be in a future post. Also dedicated to her. This is her:



Did you know it is pretty difficult to write in Paint? No? Well, it is!

Music saves life. That's what her shirt said!

This is so cute! It is the PS22 Chorus, and they are a school choir. They are in the 5th grade, and they are rockin' the music and they dance. They make little gestures while singing. Supercute!
And they happen to sing with an awesome band! Awesome + awesome = superawesome!

And I love how they came up with the name Freelance Whales.. and I love how every person in the band is different (not like the backstreet boys, where they all look like each other.. I mean.. come on)..and they gave their very first drum away.. and all the gasps.. and the cute little boy is asking very shy if they are sure.. like it was kinda their first.. are you sure.. and.. and.. and.. and.. gosh, adorable!

Look, there is more!

Oké, that is enough fan-girl bragging! Bye..

I should be doing other, more important, things..

..instead, I'm making a picture of a cool gift an awesome friend gave me:

getting something to drink, checking facebook, putting my hair in a pony tail, keeping the wasps outside of my room, getting something to eat, get my hair out of the pony tail, checking the twitters of famous people (yup), doing a little dance, open my books, close them again (waaay to scary), doing sing-a-longs, checking facebook (nothing has changed), watching every youtube video possible, cuddling with the cat.. Well, I should probably go back to my books..

I'm thirsty...

Look! It is a Robin in its natural habitat!

I had to be very quiet in order to capture it! This is a very special specie. She is called: the Sunadorebin. You only see this type of Robin during the spring. In the winters, she hides herself in bushes. Way too cold for Robin. But when the spring arrives, and the time has changed, she comes out! Consider your self very lucky if you see one! Here are some more pictures of different ones you might come across in your backgarden:


The best way to treat a Robin:
- Give her something cold to drink. Like applejuice with a lot of ice. She likes that.
- Do not stand in her sun. She might attack you.
- Keep away from dogs. She is allergic to them.
- Put some good music on. Good music. Otherwise she might attack you again.

When in danger, run away as fast as you can, before she gets her wand out and changes you in a hobbit. Yes, my dear nature-loving friends, she can be very dangerous!

Have a good nature-miracle-finding day!

Freelance Whales!

This band is totally awesome! This song is awesome too! And if you have nothing to do, on a lazy sunny sunday, you should listen to their album, Weathervanes, and define every sound that is in the song. They use all kinds of different things to make sounds.. (other than the 'standard' I'm-in-a-band-instruments)
Try "Generator First Floor" for this experiment! :) It is great! Very sweet, loving music!

And they are from New York! And they perform on the streets and at subway stations! And if they are coming to a city near you, give me a sign! :)

(you would probably have to live in Canada or North America, but hey, who knows, someone from around there might read my blog! Awesome!)

And in the end it all works out!

Just one of those days

You recognise those days, when you just know they won't work out the minute you wake up...

Yeah..

I had one of those today..

This morning, I had to wake up at friggin' 6.. that for starters, is NOT good! So I ate breakfast while being grumpy.. it is a good thing the rest of the house wasn't awake.. you don't want to see me like that! And I know everybody knows me as this gorgeous, fun, energetic, happy, beautiful, stunning, sexy, smart, friendly, outspoken, open-minded, creative.. you can stop me at any time.. girl. But not this morning..

So, I hopped on the train, just like usual. I was bored. Grumpy + bored + Robin = CLASH!!!!

And then I hopped on the bus. YES! I finally had a driver who actually couldn't drive. YES! I've always wanted that, and today is JUST the day to fulfill my wishes! THANKS!

At school, nothing really bad happened, it was actually pretty nice.. we had Spanish, and I laughed.. so sure.. that wasn't that bad. But then, I had to wait for FOUR AND A HALF HOURS until my special I-don't-know-what-I-want-to-study-so-I-pick-a-course-that-starts-at-4-and-ends-at-7-to-help-me-choose... Gosh, I'm such a smarty pants!

Sooooo,

To make myself happy, I decided to go shopping. I know that wasn't my smartest plan, since I was full of self-pity and just got some money.. But I've been strong and only bought 1 thing. I know, right!

And is it just me, or are there more people out there that buy something for themselfs and wrap it as a gift? Just to make yourself a little more happy, and exciting about your new purchase? I know I do! I know what is in the gift, but I just really like gifts, and especially 'gently' un-wrapping them! Woot Woot!

Sooooo, this is what I bought:

Excited, huh? Yeah, that's what I tought! So here's the un-wrapping part:

Whoops, that didn't go very gentle..
Now, how excited are you to see what is in there? I know right! Like THIS exciting!

WAAAAAAAAAZAAAAAA! That is totally a dvd from Mister John Mayer, only one of the most amazing man on earth, if you asked me! AWESOME!

So, to end this horrible, yet a little exciting day, I will now enjoy one of my favorite snacks (and yes, I do have a picture of that!):


WRONG! I just found out that we ran out of milk! WHY? Why me? I HAVE to have milk in order to eat my favorite-substitute snack (because the real one is only available in the U.S.) WHY?

Poor me.. I don't see why the rabbit is so happy. Shoot him. Hug me..

And by the way..

There is a store named after me!

That's right! That's ma store! I can even get it, according to tha owner! Booya!

I heart Rent

There's only us
There's only this
Forget regrets -- or life is yours to miss

No other road
No other way
No day but today!

I love how they sing simultaneously about living in America while being in another place

I love how they look horrible and beautiful at the same time
I love how they break out in songs whenever they can't just say it anymore
I love how they want to be unique, but have to sell their soul to survive
I love how they sing on rooftops in thin jackets in the middle of the winter

I love how they never ever answer their phone, and their answering machine says: 'SPEEEEEAAAK!'

I love how they can still sing a song while almost dying
I love how every taboo is in this movie

I love how one person has a rocky, Jon-Bon-Jovi-voice and still breaks out in tears every once in a while

I love Rent.

This might be the last time I change my blog design..

It moves me. I’m not a big fan of music videos. It ruins the image I have/make with a song or artist. But some videos are really strong. Like this one. This is Arcade Fire with ‘The Suburbs’. It looked like a movie to me. Guess what, after doing some research, it actually is a movie. ‘Scenes from the Suburbs’.

Some more research resulted into this:

This website is amazing! I was totally gobsmacked! (gobsmacked is the new flabbergasted, just sayin') Enter the street you grew up, and a total music video is made around it. Gobsmacking, I tell you, gobsmacking!

You know, I always tell you to do things because they're ‘awesome’

Well, this is SUPERawesome! You should REALLY do this!! FOR REAL! This is amazing!! And after you did this, please send me your postcard. That would be great! I could make a little post about it. You would be on this b-e-a-utiful, new designed blog.

Gobsmacked!

Remember me to never get a tattoo!

You remember the bubble gums that are very sticky and taste good for like, well, chewing 5 times:

Yes! Awesome! These one even include tattoos! Soooo, my friend and I decided to apply some tattoos in our spare time.

(Holy smokes, that arm is Humongous. But it is all muscle! I do all my exercises. Keep that in mind)

It is very funny, because every time I see it, it scares the hell out of me. So imagine it'd be a real one, placed after a drunk night with some friends. Hehehe... that is just wrong!

Soooo, please remind me to NEVER EVER get a Tramp Stamp! Or an old-sailor-stamp for that matter! Thanks!
