Heimwee naar het mooie Parijs, naar de twee mooiste dagen van vorig schooljaar, naar de leukste klas ooit gehad - 5&6 maart

Eén van de betere films die ik de laatste tijd heb gezien. Wat een hilariteit, wat een tragiek.

Tomorrow I'm leaving for 2 days to go on survival in De Ardennen with school (ohmygod, HELP! I'm the most totally-not-sportif girl on earth).
Friday I will be back (hopefully, maybe I will go dead of the cold, it's about 5°C at night over there and we have to sleep in tents, brr).
Maybe, if they are okay to publish, I will post some pictures of these two days later.

I'm not that sure anymore about my blog, it's quite boring, don't you think? Maybe I have to change my layout and the sort of posts, I don't know. I'm gonna think about it!

Ciao!

'Kom terug.'

Als ik die woorden eens zó zacht kon zeggen

dat niemand ze kon horen, dat niemand zelfs kon denken

dat ik ze dacht...

en als iemand dan terug zou zeggen

of desnoods alleen maar terug zou denken,

op een ochtend:

'Ja.'

2009-08-20T09:29:00.000-07:00

Unfortunately I can't go to Pukkelpop (aww..) because I have to work. I'm working since the 1st of August to earn some (much!) money. I'm working in a lab where they test paint. A bit an unusual job but I really like it actually. It's intresting and I have some nice colleagues, so it could have been worst. But it stays a shame: The Offspring, Razorlight, Beirut, Snow Patrol, Air Traffic, Vampire Weekend, Arctic Monkeys, N*E*R*D, 50 cent, Klaxons,... are playing on an excellent festival some kilometres away from me and I can't go and watch them.

song: Wire to wire - Razorlight (live at Pukkelpop)

Zal ik weggaan?

Zal ik verdrietig worden en weggaan?

Zal ik het leven eindelijk is onbelangrijk vinden, mijn schouders ophalen en weggaan?

Zal ik de wereld neerzetten (of aan iemand anders geven), denken: zo is het genoeg, en weggaan?

Zal ik een deur zoeken,

en als er geen deur is: zal ik een deur maken, hem voorzichtig opendoen

en weggaan- met kleine zachtmoedige passen?

Of zal ik blijven?

Zal ik blijven?

By chance I've been to a festival, Lokerse Feesten, yesterday. Normally my mom and dad were going to it, but because my dad was ill, I went in his place. I've seen Ultravox, a popular band in the eighties. But what a surprise, they were very good, a nice sound and an amazing played Vienna and Dancing with tears in my eyes.

song: Vienna - Ultravox

2009-08-04T09:23:00.000-07:00

Last Sunday I've been to the biggest flea market in Belgium with my mom and grandmother. The 3 of us like it so much to find some old stuff for a good price so it was the perfect opportunity to take a look over there.

I've bought a silver ring (€18), a hairslide (€1,50) and some real Marseille soap, I love the smell of it, it's so natural! You can see my boughts on the pictures.

I love...

1. Discovering new songs, at the moment my whole media player library is full with songs of Gossip Girl, try this:
LCD Soundsystem - New York, I love you

Shiny Toy Guns - Season of love

Shwayze - Buzzin

Gotye - Hearts a mess

2. Again Gossip Girl, the 2nd season final, Blair and Chuck who finally get together, I'm totally in love with that scene! I've watched it over and over on youtube, it still isn't boring. Especially Chucks smile, aah, he's cute!

3. Lily Allen who is the new model for Coco Cocoon this Fall. Coco Cocoon is the new (cheaper) sister of Chanel, maybe I can get a real chanel bag (♥) now?!

4. Flickr! I've finally got a profile on it too, but I still have to upload my pictures now. I have a profile allready, and that's a good start! (http://www.flickr.com/photos/bootylalaa)

5. The fact I have tickets for Editors in Brussels on the 7th of November! It will be the first time I'll see them, and that's a shame 'cause I really like their music!

6. The 6th movie of Harry Potter: Harry Potter and the half blood prince which I have seen last week in cinema.

Your heart's a mess

It's a shame that I saw this movie for the first time yesterday, it's a beautiful story!

Sometimes someone can mean so much to you, not even the truth can change your mind

2009-07-21T11:56:00.001-07:00

While I was on vacation I've got a moment to think about everything that happened, it has been a tough period however it wasn't so clear to everyone that I really suffered. I've tried to forget everything but that doesn't work, it has been to real (in a stupid way, 'cause it wasn't) but sometimes you think you are doing the right things, you think you can handle it and you are smart enough to know what's real and what's not. But I know that it's too late now to accuse myself for my mistakes, you are the one who is guilty, not me.

But I'm sure now, I won't take effords anymore to forget it, that isn't the right way for me, I can't cope with that. The right thing is to put it away somewhere in the backyard of my head, it will never disappear but it won't be one of my main thoughts anymore and that's something I can deal with.

So I will move on, like I always did, but now I will move on with whole my head and body, and there is one thing I can't hide: I'm proud of myself I've finally made this step!
And I'm sure you have allready moved on, but I hope you won't ever forget your blame, idiot.

2009-06-26T10:18:00.000-07:00

Tonight we are going to celebrate the start of summer on the 'open-air party', it's will be so much fun! Tomorrow I'll be too lazy to post something because we'll stay till the end at the party. Sunday I will go shopping in Antwerp with my mother and in the evening I probably go to Couleur Café in Brussels. Monday I'll get my marks of my exams, so if they will be allright I'll celebrate the whole day long! So the next post will be on Tuesday (If I won't be dead of all the celebrating stuff)

Have a nice weekend too!

It's (almost) over!!!

Tomorrow I'll finish the exams (finally!) but actually I still haven't learned for aesthetics, so it will suck, but that doesn't matter, after that we are going to celebrate! Friday, the whole weekend and next week nothing else than the perfect life, it will be so much fun... till the day we get our marks.

We're not in Wonderland anymore, Alice

2009-06-12T08:30:00.000-07:00

FI-NA-LLY! The sun is shining over here! The past 2 weeks were just like winter, and if you know that I HATE winter, than you will understand why I'm so happy at the moment.
It's also friday today, so that meens that the weekend starts!

Unfortunately I have to study mathematics, but I'm sure I will have a great time outside in the sun (so much better than a stupid desk inside). Tomorrow I've got also a small (too late)birthdayparty for my aunt, it's just a small bbq, but it's a long time ago I've seen her, so it will be very nice!

I've got also a little exams report (for who's intrested): everything went well except for geography, but that isn't a big disaster because my other marks were okay, so I'm quite happy! Just one week to go (with history and science,buh) and than an amazing summer break, can't wait!

Oh by the way: I've updated my layout a bit, what do you think of it? The only thing that isn't finished is my header, I will search one as soon as possible!

Have a great weekend!
song: Help I'm alive - Metric

See you soon!

2009-06-06T08:17:00.000-07:00

This will be one of my latest posts because Tuesday the exams start. Maybe I will post some short posts the next 2 weeks but I can't promise it.

After 20/06 I will be totaly free and ready for the best holiday ever!

If you have exams too: Good luck!

So now I'm going to revise my mathematics and than I'm going to cheer on FC Barcelona!

Normaly I'm not a big fan of 'The eurovision songcontest'. But this year I've watched it because a popular Belgian singer participated for Turkey (she was 4th by the way). But I'm soooo in love with the song that won Saturday. Alexander Rybak is so cute and his song is amazing too.

2009-05-06T05:58:00.000-07:00

Audrey,
I loved her in 'Le fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain' (I received that movie for my birthday last week).
I also want to see her new movie 'Coco avant Chanel', maybe I will go Friday to the cinema to watch it.

But most of all I love her in this new spot for Chanel n°5, she looks so beautiful in it, a natural beauty. I want to be like here, such a simple look but a possessing charisma.

My best friend A. turned 17 yesterday, and I just want to say (again): HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETY! ♥ :D

This are some pictures I haven't showed yet, they are at the birthday party of A. and Q. last weekend, it was an amazing (and very drunk) evening, but I really enjoyed it, as you can see!

And actually all I'm telling is about birthdays, so my last sentence of this message: TOMORROW IT'S MY BIRTHDAY! (coincidence!)

I've been looking on Ebay for it, but I can't find look-a-likes.
So shops, links to Ebay or other sites are welcome!
Thanks!

This is a good title for two reasons:

This week I'm the mother in house. My mother is for her work one week in Arnhem (The Netherlands). So I can cook for my brother and father, actually it's just warming up things, stt no one has to know that I can't cook.

My feet hurt and that's because this fucking first schoolday after the holiday. We had a walk of 20 kilometers! And now I'm D-E-A-D!

See you tomorrow!

I've got some bad news, I have to wear glasses, catastrophe! I don't like it at all, although I only have to wear it in class and when I look television. Tomorrow I'm gonna choose one together with my mum (who needs a stronger quality of glasses too). Attention, Nerd family! I will show it as soon as I've got him.

btw, Is there someone who wants to invite me at lookbook.nu? You would be my hero! :)

Do you have an idea?

2009-03-29T07:19:00.000-07:00

We are searching for a place where we can go on holiday this summer, but we are desperate, we can't find something new, something we haven't seen before. So we are searching for something new, but it must be something we can do by car, like France, Spain or Italy. So when you know a beautiful area in one of these countries, let me know!

btw: in 6 days I'm leaving for Turkey! :)

Tomorrow I have to present an advertisement in my lesson French. We have to work in pairs and J and I have choosen the new one from Dior. It's in Paris (where they still speak French, duh!) and you also hear a French song of Brigitte Bardot. So I think it's a perfect exemple to present in class, hope we will get good marks for it!

I'm a happy girl, the sun is shining for more than 5 days over here, spring has begun Saturday the 21st and that means: smiling people. It's very funny what sunlight can do with people, but I like it!

I'm back from Gembloux (so that's also the reason for the lack of posts) and I've got a great time, we have visited some big Walloon cities (Namen and Louvain La Neuve) and I improved my French a little bit.

Now I'm going to start with my homework and after that I will call my grandmother.

Bisous!

Chanel

2009-03-11T09:46:00.000-07:00

I don't know why, but when I see the catwalks of Chanel, I aaaaalways like them. So the latest show in Paris, ready-to-wear fall 2009, I also liked very much! Maybe because the dominante coulor was black, and I'm a fervent lover of that coulor. I don't know, but one thing I can say without doubt: Chanel still is the brand for women who love to have style!

2009-02-28T08:45:00.000-08:00

- I'm a really bad blog keeper, I don't post very often and when I think: oh yes, that's something for my blog, I forget to post it. So shame on me, I'm bad!

- I've got a week of vacation, and that was a good opportunity to prepare some larger tasks for school, and I've done NOTHING, I'm really bad!

- I've got a wonderful Tuesdayeve, I was invited on a girlsnight with some girls of my class, and we had so much fun, and I must say we were very girly: bad food (scampi's, icecream and cookies), magazines, make up, movies and pictures.

- Thurday I went to the sea, and I've found 2 berets, finally! My mum had washed mine and it was totaly destroyd (I was actually very mad at her, I really liked my beautiful beret) but now she had bought me a black and purple one!

- This afternoon I've showed my art of cooking (how do you say that in English, haha). I've made a sorbet of kiwi because my mum didn't knew a dessert for tonight (my aunt is coming to eat over here). Hope it will be nice!

I will tell you something, something so wonderful that you will start to smile, just because it's such a nice story!

Saturday I went to Brussels with my mother and I have found the most wonderful buy of my life. Maybe because it was so cheap, but that doesn't mean it isn't less beautiful! It's this navy marine blazer, I have found it in a shop for only €5! It looks vintage but it isn't, but when it was vintage it would have been so expensive, serious!

Today I went to Westland shopping center at Anderlecht, and in Zara I have found my second good buy! This grey blazer for only €16,95. God, sale is so wonderful, I totaly love it!

So, maybe now you can understand why I'm so happy.

I was thinking: actually I cant sew a button on a vest or a pant. For exemple: my mum learned it at school, it was a subject, how cool, much better than geographie and history, because sewing is important in a woman's life. But now there is nobody who teachs it at me. And that's a shame, because every self respected woman has to be able to do that. And I can't, shit.
So I give myself a speed cursus on internet. So now I have sewed allready 4 buttons on a basic cardigan. And actually I'm happy, I didnt wear it a lot anymore and now it's like new with 4 red buttons! (Tomorrow I will show a picture!)

Now I'm going to a restaurant with my parents and after that to a café with some friends! It's vacation by the way, so a good reason to celebrate it!
Have a nice friday evening!

Richard Avedon is one of the most popular photographers of his time. He was an innovater in taking portrets of people, and he was also very important in the fashionworld.

And now this big man has a place in het musuem for photography in Antwerp. I hope I will get there before the 13th of May (than the exposition is over)!

Yesterday my exchange student from Gembloux depart to home. We had a nice time together and I think her Dutch has improved with this little exchanging. Fridaynight we had a party at school and they all had such a nice time, they all said: "It was the best party ever!" So we can be proud at our little party community: Ternat.
By the way: 2 of my wishlist artists for Werchter are coming, yeah! They had announced friday that: Oasis, Kings Of Leon, Bloc Party, Dave Matthews, Franz Ferdinand, Limp Bizkit, Elbow, Amy Macdonald, The Streets and Mastodon are coming this summer. So I'm happy!

I don't know what I actually want to say, but it was a long time ago that I had posted something. So this is a stupid post just to say: I'm still alive!
And next week I have vacation, olé!

Hi beauties!

Tomorrow is the big day, my exchange student from Gembloux is coming. I hope she will like it overhere. Today I have cleaned my room, it was such a mess, horrible! And I have to make a good impression, isn't it?

I hope we will like eachother, and that this 4 days will be fun, but I think so. Friday it's a party at my school to celebrate the last 100 days of our sixth class. And Saturday we go all together to Ghent to go shopping and take some pictures of our groupe.

Actaully, I'm a bit ashamed of my 'hardly using of my wonderful camera' (a Nikon D40), but I think it's the weather. Pictures are so much prettyer when they are taking outside in the sun, and for the moment it's rainy and cold. So come on spring, where are you?

P.S. The picture above is from the most beautiful soap here in Belgium. And unfortunately it's done since Sunday. But I still like everything about it, and I'm thinking for buying the dvd-box of it, so lovely!

I've got a boring day at school, it's windy and rainy outside and I have cold.
So I came home, made me a glass of fresh orangejuice (so much vitamines), I warmed up some pancakes and I read for a while in my book (Atonement from Ian McEwan).

And now I have to study about sexuality, and when I say that, I think also about the most sexy person of the moment: Ed Westwick (it changes the whole time, but just for now he's the hottest one, you know).
And now it's your turn: look at the picture, think you are on a sunny beach, with a cocktail in your hand and that he is on the deckchair next to you. Yes, I know, won-der-ful! But indeed, it's just a beautiful dream. In the real world it just rains outside, it's cold, I don't have a cocktail and I really don't have such a beautiful boy besides me. But it's cool to have that sort of thoughts before you have to study. Good Luck!

Viva la vida

2009-02-08T09:01:00.000-08:00

It's all about gossip

2009-02-07T12:27:00.000-08:00

I'm sure you know Gossip Girl, the most popular soap of the moment. (And if you don't know: shame at you, look it up on google, now, hurry up!
Everyone is addicted at it, and so am I. I've seen the whole first season, and now I'm waiting full of expactations at the second season of the magical live of Manhattan's elite! I don't know when it will be released on dvd, but I hope very very very quick! Actually: why isn't it just at tv overhere, like in every other country? Stupid televisionmakers, or maybe just: stupid Belgium!

You know you love me! xoxo

Interior

2009-02-04T08:26:00.000-08:00

I'm sorry for the lack of posts, but I'm so busy with learning for school, and since yesterday I'm a bit ill to, so the only thing I now want to do is just sleeping a whole day long. But I can't, because my lessons history and economics that are waiting for me. Today I had a test of Chemics-bullshit and I totaly failed at it, just because I couldn't learn yesterday because of migraine. So this week is really shit.

However I Hope you enjoy the beautiful interior pictures underneath.

Excited me!

2009-02-01T03:24:00.000-08:00

February has started today, and for me it always feels so special. From now on it's just one run to the finish. In my schooldiary I'm begining to the second page of my calender (I'm ticking off the days) and that gives a really amazing feeling.
But from now one there is happening so much. In one week my exchange student from Gembloux (French speaking part of Belgium) is coming to learn Dutch over here. After that I have a week of vacation, than I'm going to Paris with school. In March I'm going to Gembloux to improve my French. And with Eastern I'm going to Turkey. And last but not least: my birthday on the 1st of May.
So it's quite busy, but I like it, it's only 5 months for the big, hot, amazing, wonderfull HOLIDAY! Love it!

Tomorrow I don't have to go to school, so this afternoon I went to Brussels with friend A. It was the end of the 'sale' so we hoped to find some good buys. Unfortunately I didn't find the shoes I want, I wished I had a 37 (the only pair that left). But they are so beautiful, and I really really really want them! (they're from Zara, lace up, size 41, only €20)
But I found a really nice 'retro' dress in H&M for just €7, so cheap! Also a belt in Mango (for €6) and two cd's from MGMT and Radiohead.

Hope you also got a great day!

The Duchess

2009-01-26T08:21:00.000-08:00

Saturday evening I went to the cinema with A and E, we saw "The Duchess" with in the leading part the talented Keira Knightley. For me she's really one of the best actresses of this moment.
But the movie wasn't that great, there was no big story behind it, and some of the actors were really bad (my own opinion, of course). But all the views of England were amazing, Keira was wonderful, the dresses she wore were more than beautiful and there were also some great shots of the cameraman, just like you were watching a picture.
So if you just like those costume drama's you really have to see this movie!

Ebay

2009-01-25T08:19:00.001-08:00

I have found a new (expensive) hobby: Ebay!

I love to bid on all that stuff, and maybe I'm biding a bit too much, it's just like I find everything cool and handy. So I just buy and buy and buy (till my bancaccount is empty) and that's actually a bit alarming because I have to learn how to handle with money. And that's not something like: 'oh what a beautiful bag, I will buy it!' So Ebay is a bad new hobby, but I like it soooo much!
Things I have bought allready: cream roses earrings for £2.20 (like you see on the picture), the dvd of my favourite movie 'Atonement' (with the beautiful Keira Knightley) and now I have seen a beautiful, red, vintage (1970s) holdall of Adidas. But I have promised it to myself: that bag is my last purchase for a month (or a weak or a day?).

Bonjour, Hi, Hallo !

2009-01-25T05:23:00.000-08:00

Hi,
I'm Katrien and this is my (new) weblog. I have started this blog because I love to write and show to other people what intresests me. I'm doing this in English because I want to improve it and also because that's a bit more international, you never know who thinks: 'I will visite the blog of Katrien'.I will talk here about myself (not that I'm the most intresting person, but you never know I can tell something to you), my life, news facts, fashion, music, etc. I hope you will like it and you will sometimes visit this page (it's not a crime to visit it daily). And I hope you will enjoy it and leave perhaps a little reaction (with suggestions, faults in my English, a little note, or something else, everything is welcome).
See you!
