Swim, relax, drink cocktails and most of all, PARTY!

I'm running around in the house like crazy, because tomorrow I'm leaving with my best buddies to Hungry for two weeks and I still need to do a lot of things! You don't want to see my 2-do list ;-)!

First stop is Siofok, a small village near the Ballaton lake. I hope the weather will be nice, because the only thing I want to do is go to the pool and relax.

After a couple of days we leave with destination Budapest. There we'll go the the Sziget festival. Looking forward to that!

Muse, Kasabian, The Gorrilaz, Mika, The Hives and lots more! Not that bad if you ask me :-)!

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).

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!

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 ;-)!

Pinkpop

I'm off! Three days of music and fun! Excited!

Digging the festival feeling

On Friday I am going with my friend A. to Pinkpop Festival in Landgraaf. I've never been there before, so I'm so excited!

Fantasizing about this year's summer

Last saturday I had the vacation meeting with my friends. Accept of last year, the three year's before we all went together on a vacation, but like I said, last year we didn't, because we couldn't find a location we all wanted to go to. I really love to go with all of my friends, but I don't want to pay a lot of money to go somewhere I don't really want to go to. So I was quite curious if this year would be different. But it was! To my surprise we talked with each other and found out that we actually have some locations we all would like to go to! On top of that (little) list there's Sziget festival in Budapest (Hungry). I'm so surprised my friends would actually like to go there, because they never talked about it, but that doesn't matter ;-). At this point it's not 100% sure, but I do like the plan. Hopefully all works out!

Last week I was also quite busy with searching for a internship for the second half of my college year. I had a interview with 3! women of a international publishing agency of three 'design' magazines. I'm hoping to get the job! Vingers crossed!

Ps. The picture was taken two years ago at the Greek island Crete. The people on the picture are the friends I'm going together with this year (again, if all works out ;-))..

In a world of imagination

So I'm back from Sziget and it was the BEST!

I've lost my voice and still didn't find it back and I had suddenly an astmatic attic which I didn't had in years, but it was all worth it! Such a great festival with such a great line-up and crowd! It was fantastic!

My favourite was Fatboy Slim. I was already looking forward to his gig, but it was mind blowing great.. And I actually liked the ending of the gig, instead of a lot of other people. What do you want more if the love is in the air?!

I'm off again!

Well, I'm off again! I'm gone till next wednesday. I'm going to this great music festival in Budapest with my friend M. and some friends of her. I'm really looking forward to it! Hope it will be great!

Festival inspiration

Saturday I'm gonna go to the Indian Summer Festival at Broek op Langedijk with my friend A. The weather forecast is still a bit vague. Now it says that it is going to be 18 degrees celsius with a little bit of sun and rain, but maybe tomorrow it will change. That makes it not very easy to decide what I should wear..

Well, here some snapshots for some inspiration and some 'before pleasure' :-)..
