Hey everyone

Well it's been a while since my last blog (a month actually). I want to thank everyone who wished me a happy B-day My B-day was great and I really enjoyed spending the day with my family and friends.

My father and I went to a museum about three weeks ago. It's called Boijmans van Beuningen and it was a really great museum. I sort of expected it to be a lot smaller than in turned out to be, but I really didn't mind that it was big even if I got lost in it, though of course my father keeps saying that we didn't get lost. Yeah right They also had a lot more paintings from really famous painters as well. They had paintings from: Monet, Kandinsky, Rubens, Rembrandt, Dali, van Gogh ect. All in all it turned out to be a much cooler museum than I thought it would be. And yes I did just use the word cool to describe a museum, I guess this really proves that I'm a geek

Last Wednesday was my first day of my new study. (See first I was studying to become a teacher at a primary school, but now I'm going to study to become a teacher of English. I decided that this is what I really want to do, even if it does mean I have to start fromm scratch again). But Wednesday was just an introduction day and tomorrow I will officially start my new study and I'm really excited about it. I do stay in the same building as my old study, so I at least will have something familiar.

Now the reason that I haven't really been on here as much is because of my suddeb obsession (see title) with Smallville. Blame my country for that, I did You see they aired a few new (well new for here then) episodes of Smallville and then suddenly they stopped. But by that point I really wanted to see what would happen next so I started watching it online. And then before I knew it, I watched every season of Smallville and even bought season 1 on DVD. So yeah that's that.
But I also caught up on other TV series and read a few books.

I will try and comment on your blogs soon, cause even though I read most of them I didn't leave comments so I will do that when I've got the time (which will hopefully be very soon).

Huge Hugs!

Hey everyone

I'm glad we got our old blogs back even if it means losing the new ones (though it still sucks). Luckily I only wrote two blogs, so it isn't much I lost.

On August 2 (in two days) I'm finally turning 18 and I'm really excited for it My computer pretty much broke about a year ago and since then the love between my computer and I was tragically lost So for my b-day I would get a new computer. Then my parents bought a computer last week, but unfortunately they said it would take two weeks before my computer was in order, which meant that I wouldn't be ready on time for my b-day. So my parents told me that last week, but I didn't care much because I'm already thrilled that I'm getting one at all. But then they called us the day after my parents told me that, that the computer was ready already. So I already got my new computer for a week now today and I couldn't be happier
I've been really busy with transferring a lot of stuff from my old computer to my new one, and I'm still not completely ready.

So on Sunday (my b-day, no I can't say it enough ) my family and friends, that are not on vacation, are coming over to celebrate and I'm really looking forward to it I probably won't be on here on Sunday, but I will be back on Monday.

Huge Hugs!

Hey everyone

It's been like two months since I've last been on here, but now it's finally vacation so hopefully I will be on here more. I missed you all, that's for sure.

School kind of sucked, partially because of my internship. The teacher, from the grade where I had my internship, and me just didn't got a long. And so she was being mean on my rapport, and reporting all kind of nonsense things. And so I was really afraid that I would fail my internship and that just sucks, but luckily this didn't turn out that way. And I passed, so I was happy with that

My computer is just broken, so I've been stealing my brothers laptop for now. Because for my b-day I'm going to get a new computer and I can't wait.

And here's part 2 of the 3, with the top 15 shows according to me. And believe me when I say I had a lot of trouble making his list, but I hope you'll enjoy.

10. Moonlight: I really love this show. I've always been fascinated with Vampires, so it isn't so weird that I love this show as much as I do. Too bad it only lasted for one season, I think this show had so much more potential and I would have liked to see more of it.

9. JAG:This show is a little for my time, but I still love it. I've seen quite a few re-runs on TV, and lately the DVD-boxes are out here in The Netherlands, so I've start buying it. And hopefully all the seasons will be released soon. BTW I'm totally a Mac/Harm shipper.

8. Friends

This is the only comedy show on my list, but it just had to be on here. I mean I've spent 10 years with these characters, and I love them all. I own all 10 seasons on DVD and no matter how many times I've seen it already, I still enjoy it. Plus it can always make me laugh even though I feel like crap.

7. CSI: New York

In the beginning it was my least favorite of all the three CSI's, but now it's my favorite. I don't know exactly what changed, but I think it had something to do with Lindsay coming onto the show. Don't get me wrong I really liked Aiden, but Lindsay brought something interesting to the table. And I just love the whole M&M's storyline.

6. Buffy the Vampire Slayer

I just love this show, especially the first three seasons while Angel was still in it. I admit I'm a huge Angel/Buffy shipper and I still think that they belong with each other. After Charmed I think this was the second show that I just become obsessed with. And probably where my love for vampires comes from.

Huge Hugs!

A day which started out as a happy and fun day turned into a drama.

Warning: This blog contains pictures of people who are badly injured if that's not your thing then please look away!!!

This Queensday started out like any other Queensday I can remember. I celebrated it with my parents with going into the town looking at some booths, listening to some live music and going to the fair. It was just another fun Queensday, until one of my aunts called my father to let him know that something at happened in Apeldoorn. Every Queensday the Queen and the rest of the royal family visit a town, play some fun old Dutch games ect. This year thattown was Apeldoorn. We rush toward my aunt's home (because she lives close by where we were) to see what had really happened. Then we see on TV that a man in his black car drove through the cordoning off operation and crashes into a monument, just a few feet away from the bus where the royal family was in.

In order to do that however he had to drive though the crowd of people that where there to see the royal family. You could just see the people flying though the air. There were 17 injured, from witch four have already died and five more are badly injured. The driver himself is still alive, though he is badly injured, and in police custody. The Queen herself has expressed her regret for what happened and to tell that she feels for the victims and their loved ones!

Shocked faces from the Royal family who saw it all happen.

There was the big question for awhile whether this was an accident or an attack on the royal family. But no we are sure enough to say that the latter was true. What everyone here in the Netherlands now wants to know is the reason why he did, but sadly there is nothing known about that yet.

Everyone is very shocked, myself included because you just don't expect anything like this at all! And since nothing like this has happened before, you don't even consider it.

All the celebrations in Apeldoorn were cancelled, and a few other places followed this. Other places decide to continue to celebrate, like Amsterdam. Amsterdam is pretty much the place to be on Queensday and a lot of people go there to celebrate it, because there is a free concert there were a lot of famous singers perform. They did have their reason for continuing and they were silent for a minute to think about the victims and their loved ones. And trust me it's quite an impressive site to see about 200 thousand people completely silent.

Anyway everyone is still pretty much in shock, and hopefully they will find out why that men did it soon.

I think that it's safe to say that Queensday is never going to be the same again!

As I am typing this; I just heard that there are now 5 people dead. We don't know yet wetter it's the driver ( who is in critical condition) or someone else.

My heart goes out to all the victims and their loved ones!

Here's a link with more pictures, and some 'live' footage from this terrible attack:

Edit: The offender died last night in the hospital which means that there are now 6 dead by this terrible attack. Now we may never know for sure why he did it, but since he just recently lost his job, the greatest guess is that he was angry about the economic crisis.

There are now seven dead and eight still injured, from witch one of them is in critical condition.

Huge Hugs!
