I've been featured on the wonderful Slanelle Street Style with an interview!

Happy halloween everyone! Unfortunately I can't go out and dress up, seeing as I still can't walk. Instead I'll just share some of my previous costumes with you, all self-made except the last one of course, but that was made by my mom.





Also, I've been tagged by Slanelle to post 7 things about myself:
1) I'm addicted to Lays chips with mayonaise. No, really, literally addicted.
2) I'm excited about going to see Grizzly Bear next week cause they're pretty much the only band from my favourites who I haven't seen live yet.
3) I don't eat cheese
4) I liked Michael Jackson before he was dead
5) I'm a nerd, I love sf/fantasyfilms made before '93 and knowing things.
6) I love baking
7) I have a really hard time making lists of irrelevant information about myself

I'm not tagging anyone but feel free to do this too.

Friday I went to the forest to take these photos. On my way back I think I ran my bike into the sidewalk, and I fell really really hard on my ankle. I had to go to the hospital to get x-ray photos taken, but luckily it's not broken. My ankle was really swollen though and I might have ruptured anklets. For the next 1,5 week I have bandages on my foot and I have to walk with crutches until I can walk properly again (don't know when that might be).

Now I have to lay in bed for at least 5 days with my foot up high, I'm not allowed to walk for 5 days. My parents have been so wonderful. They live 2 hours away but they came by today with lots of groceries and readymade food for the next few days, and tomorrow my mom is coming over for 2 days so she can drive me to my exams and take care of me a bit ;)

Oh, and as if I wasn't lucky enough; I live on the 4th floor and my elevator broke down. So even if I was allowed to go anywhere, it would take me like 15 minutes to get up or down those stairs in this state.

But everyone's been really wonderful and helpful, and also; today Daniel have already been happy together for 11 months.

I'm back in Holland again, had quite a fun week in Sweden. Daniel had to work a lot but I had to study, so that was ok. It's just so delightful to spend time together. I'm repeating repeating repeating myself, but I'm really looking forward to having an everyday life with this guy.

I shopped some, I bought a fake fur coat and fake fur hat, a blue dress (see picture above) and a red dress.

We went to a skatepunk-night at Hendriksberg cause our friend Håkan was playing there with his new band. We went to Niklas' farewell party, drank rum-cola, talked to old friends and danced and danced and danced in the living room. We had burgers at Max. We ordered pizza online and texted the pizzadeliveryguy to thank him for the great pizza. Thomas and Niklas came over to talk about the EF-recordings and we browsed books to find inspiration for lyrics. We ordered pizza again, Thomas had an egg on his pizza, which was weird and not that good. We slept halfway through sunday. We watched 'I Love You, Man' for like the 12th time.




Now Daniel's coming back the 6th of November, then we'll go on a 'family weekend' to Brussels, with my parents and brother and his girlfriend.

Akron/Family - Before and Again
This song blows my mind each time I hear it.

All this missing makes me so tired. I just want to be there when you come home from work and hear about your day. I want to be there when you go to sleep and wake up. I want you to be here when I watch Sex And The City, cause I always forget the past storylines and I need you there to catch me up. I want you here cause even though I hate to admit it, you're a lot better at cleaning than I am. I want to sit on the couch with my imagerights-syllabus while you work on your songs. I would actually get things done, now I just feel tired.

Sam Amidon - Prodigal Son
This song is more beautiful than at least 98.6% of all songs you've ever heard. If you don't agree you're either lying or you have bad taste.

By the way, 80 followers and nearly 20 000 views since June! Thank you all!

Some shots from my disposable camera from this summer.






There were really tasty-looking cherries up in there so Daniel climbed in to pick me some.

Quality of those last five sucks, I uploaded them on myspace cause those stupid assmunches at Photobucket keep taking EVERYTHING down once my photos get too much views. No way I'm getting a pro account there.

I'm feeling better now, but I'm also back in Amsterdam, alone, which is kind of sucky.

A while ago I sent in a complaint to Burger King about the following: they had this promo going on where a cheeseburger with fries + cola cost only 2 euros. A similar hamburger (i.e. a cheeseburger WITHOUT CHEESE - I hate cheese) menu cost considerably more. I asked if I could have the promo menu but without the cheese and the girl behind the counter said no. I asked why not, cause if anything, it's profit for them cause they win a slice of cheese. She kept holding on to her 'no' so I walked out and ate somewhere else and then sent an email to BK, saying I should have gotten my cheeseless burger, or they should change their slogan from 'Have It Your Way' to 'Have It Only This Way Cause If You Want To Change Anything In Your Menu Our Staff Will Act Like A Giant Dick And You Might As Well Go Eat Somewhere Else'. Less catchy, I admit. Anyway, today I was pleasantly surprised when I found a letter on my doormat with sincere apologies from Burger King and 2 coupons for a free Whopper menu. Hope I can get it without cheese.

Can't it be spring now? It's so cold.

Not looking forward to the fall and winter, it doesn't have that much to offer me. Daniel and I already have every meeting planned until halfway through november and it's not going to be that much. I'm in Sweden this week but on the second day I got supersick... I even had to move my flight cause I had such a high fever and kept throwing up; I didn't dare to fly in this state. So yeah, I've been the most boring girlfriend ever this week, just sleeping and pouting... But Daniel's been taking great care of me.
