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 ;-))..

High five from New York

Hihi, funny video. If you look to life like that, nothing can get in your way :-)

This video also makes me feel to wanna go back to that lovely city. My parents are now preparing themselves for a trip in april and I'm a bit jealous. This saturday I'm going to my friend L.'s place together with my other friends and we're going to talk about this summer and what we want. I'm looking forward to it, but when it comes to organising a vacation with all my friends there's always a lot of trouble. Everyone want to go to an other place so it's going to be hard. I still don't really know what I want for this year. Do you already know it?

Never a year like '09

Ok, ok. I'm a little bit late with this movie, but I just saw it and I think it's so funny, so I can't not show you it ;-).

I really liked all the movies that are made with a round up of last year, but I think this one is the best. Altough it's kinda only about the US.. When you watch all these movies you're also remembered of all the great people that died last year. Not a fun fact, but it's good to think about them one last time..

Her morning elegance

Today I thought I had to work on a presentation for college for tomorrow, but I got the great message that the presentation is prosponed to next week so I had a lovely free afternoon. A great reason to surf around the internet. There I noticed that there were a lot of blogs posting about Project 365. It captured my attention. Project 365 is about taking a photo each day to see your life in a whole new way.

On the website they give 3 reasons why you should consider doing it (1. Being able to look back at any day of your year and recall what you did, who you met, what you learned. 2. An amazing way to document your travels and accomplishments, your haircuts and relationships. 3. It will make you a better photographer.) They convinced me. I think it's a lovely way to look back on your year (and life).. Now I first need to check if my Flickr account still works and then we're off!

High tea, snow and new year's resolutions

One of my new years resolutions is to make more photographs. This because I love to do it, I love to see them (I can really enjoy a nice photo) and because it's so much fun to have them for later.. And ofcourse it's also the most interesthing part of someone's blog (my opinion), so enough reason to go for it..

Unfortunately I have the worst digital camera ever. I have it now for approximately 6 years and altough it has the sweetest size, it's not good. So here's another resolution: save money and get myself a really nice camera. Last year I already wanted that, but then I choosed to spend my money on my baby and NY. Not the baddest decisions, but the craving feeling is still there. But at this point there's no money where I would like to have it (in my pocket ;-)) and so I have to save. That's good for me. Absolutely. But also hard haha :-P.. We'll see..

These pictures above are some I made yesterday with my oldy camera. We have snow for two and a half week now and it's still not dissappearing. That's not normal for The Netherlands. I can't even remember the last time we had this much snow for such a long time. I love it! Everything is so winterwonderland like. Only this morning I did not liked it that much. That's because I was on my bike (Dutch people do everything on their bike, even with a ton of snow ;-)) and the roads were awfull! Not the smartest decision, especially when you consider that the bus stops right next to my house.. Whell yeah.. What can you do about it ;-)..

Yesterday I also had a high tea at my friends A.'s place. She lost her job a few months ago and said that she would throw us a high tea when she would have a new job and today she started with one! It was really lovely. Almost all my dearest friends were there and A. made a lot of the nicest things. J. acted like a real hero by driving trough the snow and over the iciest roads. But she did it great! Compliments to her ;-)!

Now we are back to business. The vacation is over and today I'm at work and tomorrow I need to get back to class. Blegh ;-). Wish the holidays never stopped ;-)..

An amazing 2010

I had a wonderfull old year. I went to one of my friends places and there we just sat, talked, drinked, laughed and played old fashioned games. It was a great way to end the old and begin the new. I hope you also had a wonderfull night!!

On the picture you see me on the left and from me you see my lovely friends S., J. and A. We tried to light some firework, but it was quite windy and freaking cold, so we were very happy that it finally all worked..
