An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward. So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means its going to launch you into something great.

Hey guys,

There's so much going on right now. It's a busy time at school ( writing a paper, reading an article and summarize it, reading two books, preparing for re-sit, reading six articles, doing an interview, preparing for exam, preparing for presentation. All of this within 3 weeks), but the worst thing is my friend is in the hospital and it's pretty serious. Today I heard he's doing better (he can breath on his own again!), so I'm a bit relieved. :)

I'm just hoping the titel of this blogpost is true. For me it would mean AMAZING shit is going to happen. 

Love,

Loes

The man who forgets to be thankful has fallen asleep in life

Heyyy guys,

Everyday I say to myself that I should clean up my room, so I can take some pics of it. But the mess only gets 

worse everyday. I'm so lazy! I'm REALLY gonna tidy it up today and do the laundry and the dishes and clean the bathroom and go to the gym. Only thing I'm really sure of doing is going to the gym, since that's the only thing I enjoy doing. 

But the relief and joy that I get after cleaning all of this mess up, will surely make my day better as well. Maybe I should hang up some sort of to-do-list on my door, or my laptop even. That way I can't possibly forget. 

Yes.

That's what I'll do.

Enjoy your day!

Love,

Loes

The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under his feet

 Hello!

It has been a busy, but fulfilling week for me. The new semester started at university and I moved to my new room. And last Friday I went to a make-up workshop with a few friends and it was so much fun! The make-up artist showed how to do the make-up on our own faces, on one eye. We had to do the other eye ourselves, which led to screams like 'OMG, what have I done?' and 'HELP!'. In the end it all turned out good and we all had a separate photo-shoot and some pictures of us all together. This week I will show those pictures of course. And pictures of my new room as well! I really love it, I think it's the prettiest room I've ever had :)

But first, what I looked like today:

 The shoes:

 The skirt:

 And the boyfriend ;)

Upside down Eric!

Have a nice week!

Love,

we do what we need to be free

Hello :)

I tried to find the English definition of  'hospiteren', but the word doesn't seem to exist... My brother (who's back to the USA now) told me that in America it's not a big deal to get a house as a student. When we tells his colleagues that I found room in Utrecht, they're all 'okay, so?', while here in Holland we're almost congratulating each other on having our own place. So I guess 'hospiteren' doesn't even exist over there! 

For the non-Dutch readers, I'll try to explain what it is. When a student needs a room, he'll look for one on the internet and leave a message on an advertisement. He might be invited to come over and meet the roommates (that's what 'hospiteren' is), but average amount of people that get invited is about 20. So even when he gets invited, he's only got a chance of 1/20 of actually getting the room. 

Tonight I've got two of those 'hospiteer'-nights. Please wish me luck. I really really want a new room, otherwise I'll have to move back into my parents' house!

(these are my new shorts btw! :)

Love,

I may not be the strongest, I may not be the fastest, but I'll be damned if I'm not trying my hardest

Hello!

I'm finally getting used to my new nose piercing and it doesn't hurt anymore. I can't help but touch it all the time, even though my piercer told me not to. My parents' reaction was okay, they were positive about it and I'm not sure, but maybe they even like it!

Last week I bought this bright pink blazer and I thought about bringing it back. It's a little bit small in the shoulders, but I like it too much to bring it back I guess.. In this outfit I'm wearing it with my new H&M blouse and forever21 earrings :) The bright pink strap on my wrist is not a bracelet, but one of those things you get when you go to a concert or go out :) It matches perfectly with the blazer, though (;

Lot's of lovee,

Loes

Adventure awaits!

Hello everybody!

The give-away is closed and I've picked a winner! At random, of course :) I wrote down all the names of the girls who are in, cut the names out and mixed them all together.

And then I picked one piece of paper with my eyes closed.. and the winner is.. Janne! Congratulations! :) I'll send you an email soon.

and here's a blouse I bought a few days ago. I think it's reaaally pretty. It's so pretty it makes me happy.

and this new bikini makes me even more happy, I love it so much whoaah!

Oh. And. Tomorrow I'm having my nose pierced, wish me luck!

Love,

Loes
