To infinity and beyond!



Yesterday I went with my mom to Toy Story 3. Loved it! This must be the week of the cute, funny and sweet movies!

Get this party started on a Saturday night

I don't know how people take such nice pictures of their food. Last friday we tried, but failed big time, because all the food looked horrible! I don't know what happened, but I won't share them with you.

Here a pic of me and F. This saturday we are going for one day to the Rock Werchter festival. It is going to be so much fun! Hopefully the weather is nice. Yesterday the weatherman predicted it will be very hot this saturday, but today the forecast predicts rain and lightning and thunderstorms! That's not what I orderd!! Well, we will see ;-). Can't do anything about it and today it's just tuesday, so a lot can still happen (fingers crossed).

If you haven't see it, go watch it now!

Take a look at the world and make a change


Just read this post about the one year anniversery of MJ's death. Think it is written perfectly. Just wanted to share it with you guys..

Have a nice weekend! The sun if finally shining over here. Unfortunately I have to work on college stuff for one last weekend.. But tonight I'm finally going to see The Fantastic Mister Fox, so no need to feel sorry for me ;-)!!

You will suck the life out of me



Last saturday I went with J. to the concert of Muse. So amazing! One of my favourite bands of all time! And lucky me is also going to see them at Sziget festival. Jeeh! Last week they also announced that Mika will perform at Sziget, so dubble Jeeh ;-)!

Btw, I can not believe a year has gone so fast already. I can remember writing this post like it was yesterday. Accactly one year ago I went out to dinner in a fancy restaurany with some of my girls. Tonight we are going to do the same. This time we are going to restaurant Le Relais in Amsterdam. Can't wait! Last year was amazing. Loved it so much! It was so much fun to see all my friends alle dressed up. We felt so awkward. Not comfortable at all with all those up tied people surrounding us. One of the courses was an oyster. I had never eaten one before and hope I won't ever have to eat one for the rest of my life ;-). I HATED it! Almost threw up haha. Now it sounds like a horrible evening, but I think it's a great anecdote and now I know what an oyster tastes like (BAD!) ;-)..

Unfortunately we forgot to bring a camera then, but tonight one of my friends will bring one so we can make fun pictures :-).

It's also accactly one year ago that MJ passed away! We were in the car driving back from the restaurant when we heard the news that there were rumours MJ could be dead. So surreal. When I got home I woke my dad up and told hem the news. It's not like we were fan of the guy and his music (except from the my friend F. ofcourse), but ofcourse he was an icon and the news really hit us. A couple weeks later I went with my friend J. to NY and people were still walking in MJ t-shirts. It was a strange atmosphere. Sigh, time really flies..

It's SUMMER!


Whieeehaa!

(Yes this scream came out of my little toe :-). Now let's hope that the sun will actually shine too! Because for now we had the most typical Dutch weather, which means rain and wind :-(..)

Maybe it's got nothing to do with me

"A Life In The Day" from John Mayer on Vimeo.

You like him, or you don't (I'm somewhere in the middle), but I think this movie looks really nice! So perfectly shot. Real nice..

The buzzing hum


Sorry for the lack of updates! Only 4 weeks to go and then it's finally time to enjoy the summer! For now the only things I do is working at my internship (like always), going to the gym (since last monday, and Ohw MY!, do I have a sore body! I think that's a sign it was time to get into action ;-)!) and watching the World Championship. Holland played last monday and altough it wasn't great, we won, so go us ;-)!!

Pinkpop, day 3 (final)

The Maccabees.
Kate Nash. Quite the dissapointment. I really liked the song 'Foundations', so I was looking forward in seeing her, but I thought the concert was not good. She sang off key and screamed most of the time. Also her lipstick was all over her face. I felt bad for her if I would stand in her shoes. I would not like it to have a clown face when a couple thousand people are watching me..

Skunk Anansie. I don't like her, but A. wanted to see her and after a while I have to say it wasn't that bad. I actually knew some songs and she smiled all the time, so I think it was contagious.

One last pic of me and A. Still rocking the 'poncho'...

And there he was again. My secret lover. Ok, now I sound like a freak. I'm sorry ;-)..

A. and I wanted to have a good spot for Mika so we went a hour earlier to the stage. It was just in time, because after we came there it got very crowded.

I really like this picture. Those pink hats are a every year thing. A lot of people buy them. They are pink, because of the name of the festival.. PINKpop :-)

Another fun picture.

And after a while Mika even took his shirt off! Happy times ;-)

And last, but not least. Pink. Loved her. I love her songs and think she is fierce!

At the end of the concert she came back on the stage and got into these ropes and flew over the crouwd! So cool! I knew she did that in her shows, but I didn't expect her doing this at festivals. But well, no mountain is big enough for Pink as you can see ;-)!

Loved the festival! Already looking forward to Rock Werchter in a couple of weeks and ofcourse Sziget in August :-)!

Pinkpop, day 2

A. walking to the festival.

C'mon en Kypski. Great show. Real fun. They are also going to perform at Sziget this year :-)


Me acting silly :-)

Mando Diao. I thought this show wasn't that great.


A. and I partying our poncho's off ;-)!

The show of Green Day. Also a high light! I didn't expected much of it and thought that 2 hours would be a very long time, but from the moment the concert started I loved it! The singer is really energetic and funny. Every song was fun and it wasn't a moment dull. At the end there was a lot of firework and twice we thought it was over, but then they came back on the podium again and played more songs. So great! It was a lovely night..

Pinkpop, day 1

The singer of The Temper Trap. They were so cool and nice at the meet and greet :-). I was already looking forward to this gig, but now I actually shaked their hands I'm a fan for sure ;-)!

On this hill al lot of people watched the festival for free. Quite cool if you live in that area and you can just chill and enjoy the music like this. On the other hand, if you live nearby you would buy an actual ticket right?

Me and A. . I'm wearing my Kasabian tee :-)

The Gossip. She was so nice! We couldn't see her well unfortunately, because it was so crowded in the tent, but we did hear her loud and clearly. She was great! And after every song she thanked the audience in Dutch with the sweetest girly peep voice.

Rammstein! Ohw my! I thought this was one of the coolest gigs I've ever seen!

It was amazing! Rammstein was already THE band I was thrilled about before the festival and the gig itself was even better than I hoped for. It's not like I'm always listening to their music or so (I'm not a scary chick ;-)..), but I do like to hear it once in a while. I think their songs are high larious.

The performance was also high larious. They made a sketch of themselves. Before the concert started and everyone was waiting for them their was a huge black curtain infront of the podium. Then their was a loud bang and the curtain dropped. Everyone expected to see the band, but instead of the band their was a new curtain. This time it was the German flag. So funny! The relationship between the Dutch and the Germans is still a bit tence (Just a little bit! But you can't deny it's not), so cheering for the German flag was a bit weird but oh so funny, because it feels a bit wrong haha. Then that curtain also dropped and the concert started. The lead singer had a butcher apron on and a little light in his mouth. Wrong, so wrong. I know! That's why I loved it! And like this the show went on and on and on.

The keyboard player of Rammstein.

He had a big role in the show. Funny guy. At first I thought he was so scary looking (all in leather), but after a while he changed into a glitter suit and made the weirdest movements. FUN!

We could rule the world



So, i have to confess. I'm al little bit in love..

I've seen Mika now twice in real life and I think he's adorable!

Now i just stumbled across this clip and altough I can't hear the music (I'm at my internship right now), it cought my eye. And I have to say that those glasses look stunning on him! Makes him even more sexy ;-)!

Let's colour



This makes my happy!

“Let’s Colour is a worldwide initiative to transform grey spaces with colourful paint.

This 2 minute global film was shot by multi-award winning director Adam Berg over four weeks in Brazil, France, London and India. Every location is real and they remain transformed by a palette consisting of 120 different colours. The people in the film are not actors, they are real people who rolled up their sleeves to transform their community with colour.”

Aiden is back!



Tonight I'm finally going to the cinema to see Sex and the City 2 with seven of my friends! It's going to be a real girls night out! Jeeh!

I know we're cool



After watching this clip I even more wish it was already summer. Not that the sun doesn't shine here. It actually finally does. Only I can't enjoy it because I'm indoor like all the time :-(. Well, only 6 weeks to go and then it's finally time to do absolutely nothing!

Back to business


On monday we came back from the festival and it was fantastic! We saw some amazing performances and had a lot of fun! We also had a meet and greet with The Temper Trap! So, so amazingly cool! I'll soon post more pictures, but now I have to go back to work ;-)!
