For me, the next two weeks will be my holiday!
So what am I going to do? I am going to France!
Unfortunately I do not have any wireles in France, so I can not do things I normally do like facebook, youtube and well check my mail or chat with people. On the other hand it is good to know that a life without internet is possible. I use the computere quite often but when I am in France I can show myself that I do not need my computer and that I still have the rest to read.

I really love to read, that is probably why I am reading Jane Eyre now with it's 500 pages in stead of some stupid english book around the 100 pages. I'd rather read a lot of interesting pages then to waste my time on a stupid book. It just doesnt work for me if I have to read something I do not really like.

But when I am in france I do not have the distraction, I do not have the distraction of well friends, computer or television. And I pitty the friends but I think you should be able to live without a tv and a computer! It is quite ridiculous how much time we spend on the computer, I mean, I am even spending time right now on writing this. Not that I would like to do something else but I mean do not we have anything better to do?
Is it not better for me to go to sleep right now, or we could go and talk to people in real life or we could work or do our homework in stead of spending time writing blogs, watching youtube video's or chat with people.

Anyway thanks for being bored, and read this blog about why you should not read this and do something else. I make sense, I think it is time to go to bed.
Goodnight.

And once again almost 10 days passed!

Now Sinterklaas has left Holland we are open to receive Santa. I love the christmas atmosphere! It is so nice and cozy, and all the lights in the shoping malls and the trees with little lights twinkelling. Ah, I really like it!

I thought it would be nice to make a chirstmas card with one of my own pictures, here a few options. Feel free to use them! OK, well not really christmas card pics but sort of cristmas-style pictures :)

Tomorrow I have my prom! I am really looking forward to it, and maby i'll show you some cool prom pics after it.

bye byee xxx

Winter

And then suddenly one month passed.

This month was soo very busy and stuf, it is quite funny how time passes when your busy, and how it seems to take ages when you have got nothing better to do.

Today it's Sinterklaas in Holland! It is a sort of santa, just some old guy bringing presents through the chimney. Sinterklaas's birthday is on the 5th of december. And actually I still don't get why he actually gives us presents on his own birthday. But never mind! I like getting presents and i like the feeling 5 december gives. Just like Christmas does, a nice warm feeling, a time to spend with family and friends. Sinterklaas had his helpers, because he can néver fill all the shoes himself, haha, those helpers are called "Zwarte Pieten" and well see the picture below.

I hope I've been nice so I dont have to go to Spain with Sinterklaas... although I would not mind going to Spain.

Have a nice Sinterklaas!

Kitty Cat

I made some pictures of my cat :D

Ah I love the last picture, unfortuanatly she moved a little bit. But I still love it, it shows the pride that cats have. Like a little lion.

The cat did not really like me taking pictures of her. So I have a lot of moved pictures!

Right now there is a little storm or something, wow there is so much wind and rain. And it is freeeeezing! Ah i hope the weather changes soon, in stead of the storm making me calm I get very excited and restless. And I do not know why but it is annoying. Guess autumn is just nice when the leaves are brown, and the sky is greeyyy. I've been for a walk... Haha I just thought of this song when I wrote`the leaves are brown´. Well never mind. I am going to pack my bags so I can leave to Maastricht tomorrow!

Good day.

The eyes are the mirror of the soul

What can we do with our eyes? Some people prefere them covered with make-up, others hide them underneath cool glasses. But what can we so with our eyes?
"Eye contact provides social information to the person you are listening to and talking to. Too much eye contact and you could be seen as aggressive, too little eye contact and you can be seen as having no interest in the person speaking. It is an often overlooked skill to have and an under utilised skill when communicating with people."

So don't stare at people for too long, only people who love eachother can stare in eachothers eyes. Otherwise it will get uncomfortable at some point.

In my opinion eyes are very important, I mean if a guy has nice eyes you can just keep on watching them. Yeah well at this point I think i need to use the tip of not looking for someone too long, maby this guy will think I want to attack him or something.

"Frequent blinking during conversation indicates high interest. Some women use a rapid flutter of their eyelashes to get a man's attention."

"A wink with the closed eye directed at a person implies a shared secret. When winking at an opposite sex stranger it implies you have undisclosed desire for them. "

So, what am I going to do next time I want to make contact? Well this:
watch-blink-blink-watch- look away- watch-blink-blink-watch-wink-blink-blink

No way, this guy will think there is something in my eye or something. Not good.
Anyway I think you should just watch someone in the eye when you talk, if you like that person you should look away and watch again. If you want to show respect you should watch someone in the eye but not for too long but keep on watching otherwise you look distracted. And well just do what you do automaticly I guess, I mean you are not paying attention when you are thinking how to watchi someone at the moemnt you are talking to that person. So just dont think and talk.

Cello

Ah, today I went to Amsterdam to the "cello biennale 2010".

Just one enourmous cello festival. I only went to see a masterclass of Giovanni Sollima, and well it was really impressive. Not only Giovanni but all the people who played!

I went to see Giovanni because he is the reason I am playing the cello. I once saw him on a Dutch program I normally never watch. And then I saw him playing and it was so beautifull, and since that moment I knew I wanted to play the cello as well.

I will show the piece I heard, maby it will inspire you as well!!

Photo's

Well I went to do some photographing, just because I was in the mood. As you can see just some random pictures. Enjoy :)
And I have a cello! Don't know if I ever mensioned this before, but of course the perfect object for pictures. I just LOVE the little heart!

Well bye bye, and I'll try to blog soon :D
