High school..

This year will be my fifth year in high school. I'm in my fourth year cause I had to do this year again. Which means new class, new students and a completely new school year. And you know what? I'm so so so excited! I simply can't wait for the summer break to be over. I really want to start all over. A fresh start. (:
I know many people hate high school. I was one of those people for four years. But I'm not anymore. I finally learned that high school doesn't mean a thing. It's this really small part of your life. Of course, you 'find yourself' in high school and you're gonna need it for your future. But it's not like you're all done when you've finished it. Some people never find themselves. I think I've already found a big part of myself. I'm only sixteen though so who knows?
There's one thing I do know for sure though. Everyone who's trying to be popular in high school, is an idiot. You know why? Because nobody's gonna care when you graduate. You'll probably won't even speak to any of your classmates when you're done. Maybe one or two but that's it. Everyone's going in a different direction. So why bother putting so much effort in being popular when you'll only be it for a few years. It's probably not even 5% of your life!
You know what I'm gonna do this year? I'm gonna learn so hard that I'll graduate with A's. I'm gonna be myself and I'm gonna have friends around me who are real. Because I don't need to have tons of friends and I don't need a high school boyfriend. I just need to pass and have some fun with people who like me for who I am. That's all I need. If I have that I know I'll be okay. I know I'll have a great future because I had a great past. I had a real and honest past.

xoxo.

Old blog: What is scene?

Hey guys!

So I decided to post this ancient blog here because it kind of made me laugh. I still think about it this way, but at the time I wrote it I had this ridiculous 'emo/scene period'. So yeah.. Here you go:

7th July 2008
"What is scene? Nobody really knows the answer; everyone has its own view of scene. Even the best ‘scene queens’ can’t explain what scene is. Audrey Kitching, one of the most famous scene queens, once said; “I’m still to this day not sure what a scene queen is, people made that label up. Everyone will have their own reasons to love or hate someone so I guess I’m stuck in a box with that term”. Let’s take a closer look to our famous scene queens. Starting with Audrey Kitching herself.

Audrey Kitching is a big fashion icon in 2008, she has her own style but still uses the newest trends, she even makes them. Audrey is like Twiggy to the ‘scene’. But not only to the scene.. She’s a model for New York Couture and she has tons of shoots with MAC cosmetics. She’s like a perfect Barbie doll. So what makes Audrey scene?

Suicide Girls is a website of alternative models going, roughly said, naked in front of the camera. One of the girls who had been part of this website is Zui Suicide. She’s a rebel; you really do not want to fight Zui even though she is pretty small. So what about this? We have a rebellion girl going naked in front of the camera and fighting on ‘Paris Hilton’s my new BFF’, yes she did that too. What on earth makes Zui scene?

And our final example is Miss Mosh. Pretty girl, young, talented. She looks like the perfect teenager, the perfect scene queen. No surprise many scene kids love her. But despite of the fact she’s pretty, and has ‘awesome hair and clothes’, what’s special about this girl? Well, she goes naked too! She even has her own website; themoshroom.com, where people can subscribe and watch naked pictures and movies of her. What is scene about this, what is scene about Mosh?

Do you need to have style to be scene? Cause Mischa Barton and Paris Hilton aren’t scene, and they definitely know everything about fashion. Do you need to be a rebel to be scene? I don’t think Audrey Kitching will scream to someone like that, even though she used to be best friends with Zui… Do you need to be a porn star to be scene? NO.

Scene isn’t even a label, what means scene? Nothing! It’s a chapter of a movie that has nothing to do with labels, fashion or what ever. It’s just like Audrey Kitching said, people made that label up. It’s ridiculous, and it only makes people even more racist than they already are. So ‘scene kids’, stop calling yourself scene. You’re not scene! Why not? Because scene, simply, does not exist.

xoxo"

I'm going to Antwerp!

That's right. Thursday the 5th I'm going to Antwerp for four days with my lovely mother. I hope we won't fight the entire time.. We're probably too busy shopping hihi. I'm so excited! I've never been to Antwerp. I never wanted to go! It didn't sound that exciting at all. But then I found out what shops were located in Antwerp and I'm already in love with the city! I simply can't wait to go there and spend every single euro I've got. Has anyone of you been to Antwerp? Because I'd love to hear about your experience! So please tweet me an answer if you've been. I wanna know EVERYTHING! The best shops, restaurants, hot spots everything.
Of course I'll try to give y'all an every day update of my time in Antwerp. With my favorite places and everything I've bought that day. But I'll give you some information beforehand. There aren't things I know about the city but hey, that's why I'm going right? ;)

These are my favorites (so far):
H&M
Zara
New Look
Urban Outfitters
America Today
Antwerp Chocolate Store
Mango
Rituals
MAC cosmetics

That's it right? I don't know.. I feel like I forgot A LOT. But hey, I can always update my post right? And I'll keep you updated anyways.

OH btw! I'm staying at the Leopold Hotel if you're wondering ;)

Okay now I'm done haha. Talk to you soon!

Recipe: Quick and Easy Salmon Sandwich

Hi guys,

So I was really hungry this afternoon and we didn't have much in the fridge, so I kind of had to improvise. I decided to make a little mix of everything that was left and it turned out great! Therefore I decided to share my new invention with you guys. (: Here's what you have to do.

Ingredients (1 person):
- Salmon filet
- Cream cheese
- 3 (or more) slices of bread
- Lettuce
- Honey Mustard Sauce

Here's what you have to do:
Start of with your salmon. You can buy fresh salmon, but I find it easier to just by the ones you can put in your fridge. Take one out and warm it up the way the package says you're supposed to. If the package doesn't say what you need to do, I'll suggest you try to place it in the microwave for about 3-5 minutes. Yes, it's that quick! In the mean time, you can layer your bread with cream cheese and lettuce. Then, when it's ready, place about half of your salmon on one slice and spread it with a fork. Add some sauce and then make another layer. Place both layers on top of each other and cover it up with your third layer. And then you´re done. (:

I've got my coastal scents!

Yes, I've finally managed to get hold of them. The 88 palettes from coastal scents! I got them yesterday, so I didn't have much time to examine them but I'll post a review on the palettes as soon as possible! With pictures, obviously.

So here they are, I've got the matte and shimmer version:

New blog!

Hi y'all.
So I've decided to start a new weblog. My other was was starting to get pretty old and I noticed I've changed a lot since the start of my blog. Therefore I decided to change my blog too. I'll probably lose many followers considering my other blog was at tumblr but hey, the die-hards will stay anyways haha.

I hope you'll like me new, hopefully improved, blog. (:

xoxo.
