  • Time still flies

    by winterwoods on November 30, 2006
    It's been a while. I've been busy, I had to prepare a debate, like a professional one, for dutch. I hate them, I really do. We did win though. So, yay. My birthday is in two weeks. Yikes. I'm going to celebrate it for the first time in years, with some of my best friends, nothing special. I only celebrate it for the gifts of course :p. And for the rest... Well, the play's going OK, I guess. Not really as good as I hoped, but not as bad as I expected either. There have (or has, I don't know) been some arguments, but I think they're sort of solved now. And I'm fine, eh, not really, but still. I don't feel like sulking today. I'm going to sleep. Nightnight. XxX winterwoods

  • busy busy busy

    by winterwoods on November 21, 2006
    yeah, I kind of am, busy I mean. It's a lot more than I'm used to. But it's nice, you know. Lot's of planning and schedules... I like that, making schedules. I'm eating. A lot. Like everything, bread, cookies, cereal,muesli bars, anything I can find. Which isn't much, because my mum forgot to get groceries this weekend. But it's still too much for me. I'm fat. And ugly. Luckily you can't see me. Hah. Well, that's it for today. XxX winterwoods

  • moody

    by winterwoods on November 08, 2006
    yeah. I went from upset to moody. I don't know if that's a progress or the other way around. God, I was moody today, at school! And not moody, like less loud than usual. But moody in a Mad Eye Moody from Harry Potter kind of way. It was weird. I was really... rude to my friends. I'm hardly every (willingly) rude to my friends. I'm so glad I have friends I wouldn't even dare to. But still I did. I feel like jumping around on really loud music. Well, first homework, then playing ;). XxX winterwoods

  • upset

    by winterwoods on November 07, 2006
    I feel so upset. I don't know why though, and I think I'm whining a lot on this blogthingy. But well, that's better than whining in real life, right? I mean, if this is annoying, stop reading, but when I talk to my friends about this, they can't stop listening, that would be kind of rude and stuff. So this is better. This dude hugged me today, he's weird. He kind of scared me :p. I don't really like hugging, or you know, when you meet people you vaguely know, you have to give them three kisses on the cheeks. (In Holland, I mean) I hate that, I don't like touching people I barely know. I wave, that's my thing, my item, my trait. I wave, when I come to school and see my friends, I wave to them and say hi. I don't hugg them, or kiss them on the cheeks or whatever. I wave. Well, that dude, he's like co-director of the schoolplay, and he babbled on about grouphugs and how they are good for the work climate or something (that sentence didn't came out right, sorry). But that's not why I feel upset though. Probably it's just the schoolexams. (that's the word, that's how we call them in English) But well, it's late, I'm going to shower and go to bed. Goodnight.

  • uhh, something

    by winterwoods on November 06, 2006
    Well, I looked the word up, but I don't know if it's the correct word. But I think this is what I'm having today and tomorrow, and the 2 days after that. Preliminary Examinations. I never heard of that word before actually. In Dutch we call it 'tentamens' or 'schoolexamen' and in German its 'Schulprüfung'. Or something like that. Ehm, wel, I'm kind of nervous, you have to sit in this enormous room with hundreds of tables and chairs. And you have to be dead quiet for 75 minutes. My first 'preliminary examination' is English. I have to write a text. I'm really nervous. I do know my English is good enough, but 75 minutes are just too little to write a good text. God, I feel stupid for being so nervous. Why am I always nervous? My mother told me about the time she lived in America. She lived there for a year as an exchange student. She had a really cool time, and a yearbook and everyone had written in it, about how cool they thought my mother was. That was so cool, I hope I'm going to have that a great time in Dublin as well. But for now I have to go to school, write that stupid text. Yay. XxX winterwoods

  • languages, part 2

    by winterwoods on November 02, 2006
    je veux improver mon francais, mais je ne sais pas quelle facon est le meilleur! Je ne parle francais bien, mais j'adore la langue francaise, parce que c'est une très belle langue. Ehm, that's it. My french is really awfull ^_^. nun, lassen wir Deutsch sprechen, ich finde Deutsch nicht wirklich eine schöne Sprache, aber es ist doch toll. Ich finde Rammstein wirklich sehr gut, und dadurch lerne ich auch ein bisschen Deutsch, also das ist sehr nützlich! Nouja, dit is nog altijd het makkelijkst. Lekker simpel Nederlands. Daar hoeven ook geen spelfouten in te zitten, tenminste, niet als ik goed oplet. Maargoed, Nederlands op school is wel erg moeilijk. Aart van der Schendel, geen aardige gast om zulke moeilijke boeken te schrijven! Maar Louis Couperus aan de andere kant schrijft erg mooi. But my alltime favorite will always be Jane Eyre from Charlotte Brontë :). XxX winterwoods

  • je parle Francais, ich spreche Deutsch

    by winterwoods on November 02, 2006
    I’m ready to write a longer blog right now. I don’t think I have a lot of homework for tomorrow, so yay ^_^. Let’s see, I’ve got French, which isn’t hard, then English, which is like the easiest subject for me. Er, then ehm, Latin, which is kind of hard, so… yeah that’s it. Just French and Latin. I’ve only got languages tomorrow! How cool! But, erm well…this week was busy, I was busy. I’m promoted, so now I’m head director of the play. And I’ve already got a lot of bad criticism about the script. But nothing I can’t handle. They only shout things like ‘It’s stupid, I don’t like it!’ But they don’t tell me how to fix it, so yeah, I can’t help it then. I’ve been feeling OK lately, actually. Not really self pitying or anything, just a bit, at night, in bed, a bit… sad. But that’s normal, I guess. I dreamt that my computer crashed and everything I ever wrote was gone, every picture I ever took was gone, even my homework was gone. Then I woke up half crying :p. It was kind of embarrassing, crying because of a crashed computer. But well, I do have a lot of valuable stuff on the computer so it would be a pity if it all were lost. Er, I get the feeling my English is very bad today, so I’m going to stop writing now, until my English has improved ;). XxX winterwoods
