keeps the world from falling apart

Saturday, 1 May 2010

yeah. keep on talking Laurie. we know you're crazy.

So my parents just arrived from the Makro... They have bought some pasta that looks like playdoh clay. Im serious. i hope i will not die from eating it. its bright orange and... well it looks like clay.
yes, people, i know this is like my tenth post in a day but you just have to understand that i am a boring person with a boring life who has completely nothing she can do today.
aha. yes, i know that does not make sense. anyway, here are a few things that make me happy:

Tea-
I love tea, every sort of tea, although i have never drank nettle tea. i think thats really gross. ah well. ohyeah, and i HATE liqourice tea. iewww


Friends-
i have wonderful friends and i love them very much and i could not live without them and they make me happy and they make me laugh. although sometimes they are crazy. ahh well, its not like im not :)


Food-
I love food. its so useful! i eat food to make me happy, and i eat food when im bored, and i eat food to celebrate something, and i eat food to share with friends. oh, and you need it to live. yeah, i know you guys now think: watteheck, that girl must weigh like a thousand pounds. but, really, i dont!
im not the thinnest person on earth but im not thick. i really wonder why, as i eat like 3x the adviced-calorie-amount-per-day-thingy. its impossible really. i think maybee in a past life i have traded my soul to the devil or so. ahh well, never mind. (ahh, just a comment: with food i mean all the tasteful things. and that acutally means: all whats bad for you. so, sweets, chips, junkfood, mc flurries (have you tasted the lion one? its delicious!) so im not talking about that healthy shit. thats not edible. how can they even think about calling that food.)(ok thats a bit exagurated (how do you spell that?!) i do like fruit. but you know what i mean :)


Reading-
I LOVE reading. i seriously do. im sure you must think im a nerd or something, but im not. i dont like school. but i love reading and believe it or not, 1 year ago i read about six 250-page books each week. i dont read that much anymore, i guess i have developed more of a social life. or something.


The Sun-
I just love the sun. its warm and comforting. i am going to marry the sun when i grow up.


Ice Cream-
Well, partly because it reminds me of summer and hot days and laughing with my friends. but its reallly reallly delicious. oh, i guess this kind of belongs to the 'food' part. ahh well


Johnny Depp-
I absolutely ADORE Johhny Depp. hes my hero and i love him in every film he acts in. i even love him in alice in wonderland even though hes kind of scary there. with the eyes and stuff. in sweeny todd hes not so scary :)
hes just handsome there.


and there are HEAPS of more things i love. but im afraid i have been on the computer like all day and i have to spend some 'quality time' with my parents too :). oh and yeah, if i would post about everything i love you would be busy reading it for like two years. oh, well.

Blood Diamonds

I've just watched the film Blood Diamond with a friend, and it's a beautiful but sad film! Its so sad to see all those children killing men and women and other children like its nothing, i had to cry and.... well you cant know what im talking about unless you see it yourself. All those poor children who are forced to fight... its horrible! I wont tell you what its about exactly, just watch the film! really its worth it.



Hugg,

that I can be myself...

and if I could I would stay yeah

I'll stare in the distance
but I grow up to be just like you, yeah

I see it all I'm sure but
do I know what's right
I thought I knew but it turns out the other way
I am scared that I won't find a thing
and afraid that I'll turn out to be alone, but I

I have to learn, have to try, have to trust I have to cry
have to see, have to know that I can be myself...

and if I could I would stay yeah
and if they're not not in my way yeah
I'll stare in the distance
but I grow up to be just like you, yeah
I grow up to be just like you.

I want to tell you
why would I try to

why would I try to

( why he would I, trying to and. you are all that, i can see now )

and I want to tell you
why would I try to

My Class

I really love the people in my class. Well, ofcourse there are a few exeptions, which i will not mention. But the most of them...
We really are a 'close' class. well:
- we cycle with the whole class (few exeptions)
- we do things together like playing soccer with an enourmous blue skippyball and meeting each other at 8 o'clock at the cicutto, where they sell icecream (we are going to meet friday) and going to alice in wonderland in 3D and going to edinburgh and having lots of fun :)

Today was funny with a few people: cox, stijn, aron, leon, thomas and me. Our philosophy teacher wasn't there so we could spend the hour doing what we liked, and we stayed at school. Then we thought about the future and wondered what the people in our class are going to be in 20-30 years. This is what we found out:
-Yenka picks bananas at her own bananaplantation
-Selma sells flowers in a flower shops and works part-time at yenkas bananaplantation
-Aron dies at the age of 18 because of a car accident
-Cox first works at greenpeace, saving whales, and later she huggs trees (literally)to prevent people chop them. Then she gets a job at the Dutch ministry of Environmental issues
-Leon becomes either: an unsuccesfull surgeon who becomes bold at the age of forty or: a typical thick, rich asshole.
-Thomas becomes a math professor and marries with a very hot actress, he gets Einstein hear.
-Koen ends up in a psychological-crazy-people home and he has hallucinations about (i dont remember, lets say elephants eating him)

We did the other people in my class too but they aren't really interesting :P

funny people <3


-xxx

Kukens




I want to dedicate this post to a very funny friend I have named Cox. She is always much too hyper and she is our Kuken. (Kuken is the German word for chick-> the animal, not the hot girl) She always makes us laugh and she is really cute and she is just so Kuken it's unimaginable for people who have never met her. Sweet Kuken :)


this is our kuken

Morning Sun


How do you rate the morning sun
after a long and sleepless night
how many stars would you give to the moon
Do you see those stars from where you are
shining on the lost and loneliest
the ones who can't get over it


You always wanted more than life
but now you don't have the appetite

Give a message to the troubadour
the world don't love you anymore
Tell me how do you rate the morning sun


Stuck inside the rainbow
you could happen to be
cause I've been close to where you are
I drove to places you haven't seen
it all seems so familiar
like they've been send to kill you


It doesn't take an astronaut
to float in a space is just a thought

The morning brings a mystery
the evening makes it history
Tell me how do you rate the morning sun


And the village drunk
you know he sadly passed away
It was a shame
I never knew his name
I wonder if he sat there in the morning
watched the sunrise



How do you rate the morning sun
It was just too heavy for me
and all I wanted was the world
And you were the star that lit the sun
don't go wasting your time
cause there's no finish line


And you don't see anything
not even love not anything

The night can take the man from you
a sense of wonder overdue

The morning brings a mystery
the evening makes it history
Who am I to rate the morning sun

LOVE

HEY GUYS
JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU
I LOVE YOU!! <3<3<3

Please don't stop the rain


I don't know where i crossed the line.
Was it something that i said.
Or didn't say this time?
And i don't know it it's me of you.
But i can see the skies are changing.
I'm all the shades or blue.
And i don't know, which way it's gonna go.

And if it's gonna be a rainy day.
There's nothing we can do to make it change.
We can pray for sunny weather.
But that won't stop the rain.
Feeling like you got no place to run.
I can be your shelter 'til it's done.
We can make this last forever.
So please don't stop the rain.
Let it fall, Let it fall, Let it fall
Please don't stop the rain.
Let it fall, Let it fall, Let it fall
Please don't stop the rain.

I thought the time was on our side.
I've put in far too many years.
So let this pass us by.
You see life is a crazy thing (Yeah)
There'll be good times an' there'll be bad times.
And everything in between.
And i don't know which way it's gonna go.

And if it's gonna be a rainy day.
There's nothing we can do to make it change.
We can pray for sunny weather.
But that won't stop the rain.
Feeling like you got no place to run.
I can be your shelter 'til it's done.
We can make this last forever.
So please don't stop the rain.
Let it fall, Let it fall, Let it fall
Please don't stop the rain.
Let it fall, Let it fall, Let it fall
Please don't stop the rain.

O we're a little closer now.
And finding what lives all about.
Yeah i know you just can't stand it.
When things don't go your way.
But we've got no control over what happens anyway. ( Yeah )

And if it's gonna be a rainy day.
There's nothing we can do to make it change.
We can pray for sunny weather.
But that won't stop the rain.
Feeling like you got no place to run.
I can be your shelter 'til it's done.
We can make this last forever.
So please don't stop the rain.
Let it fall, Let it fall, Let it fall
Please don't stop the rain.
Let it fall, Let it fall, Let it fall
Please don't stop the rain.

Let it fall, Let it fall, Let it fall
Please don't stop the rain
Let it fall, Let it fall, Let it fall
Please don't stop the rain.
Can't stop it no, you can't stop it, just can't stop the rain (Let it fall, Let it fall, Let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain.

Nintendo DS lite

Heyy guys.
So, my little sister got a new Nintendo DS lite... and im totally addicted to it. The game i play is sort of an animal-sims and its really cool :D
(Uhm. Laurie. Aren't you supposed to be too old for this kind of stuff?) Eahh.. yeah i guess i am supposed to be. I still like it though. It's like watching Dora and Blues Clues when you're ill. (ok, bad example, i think me and my friends are the only non-todlers on this planet earth to do thay. Well, as long as we're happy :)

Btw, one more week and its may-holidays :D
and a week after that we are going to england with the whole class... whaaa i cant wait!

Well, i am going to play on the Nintendo of my little sister again.. :D

XOXO- Laurie

so...

It's really weird how you can feel lonely even though you have a lot of people that care about you. I sometimes do... I don't have a clue why, maybe it is because I keep getting the idea nobody tells me anything and that there are things with/about people I love i have no idea of. Yeah, i know, probably just me being paranoid. And sometimes i feel so... away from my friends. It's really weird but sometimes it feels like we have just met each other and are almost complete strangers.

i don't know why all this...

ah forget it and lets be happy. It's spring after all :)

Broken Strings

Let me hold you
For the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
But you broke me
Now I can't feel anything

When I love you,
It's so untrue
I can't even convince myself
When I'm speaking,
It's the voice of someone else

Oh it tears me up
I tried to hold on, but it hurts too much
I tried to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything that your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real

Oh the truth hurts
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before

Oh what are we doing
We are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins of us

Running back through the fire
When there's nothing left to say
It's like chasing the very last train when it's too late (too late)

Oh it tears me up
I tried to hold on, but it hurts too much
I tried to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything that your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real

but the truth hurts,
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before

But we're burning trough the fire
When there's nothing left to say
It's like chasing the very last train
When we both know it's too late (too late)

You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything that your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real

oh truth hurts,
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before
Oh when I love you a little less than before!

Let me hold you for the last time
It's the last chance to feel again

Selma's party

Yeah, see, monday i went to selma's party. She had bought (i'm sorry HER MOTHER had bought) FAR TOO MUCH food, so at the end we all felt sick. We went to the woods and there we just played some football and drawed on her t-shirt and climbed a tree and ate far too much food and made crazy videos. And yenka and me went further into the woods, and there we made a big heart out of leaves and sticks and all sorts of natural stuff, and then we took pictures in it. (we had the timer on and my camera in a tree so both of us could be in the pictures) The whole party was soo fun, in spite of that we all felt sick :D
i'll post some pictures of it tomorrow, i have to leave the computer now ':(

LOVE-

The Snowman

Today I was helping my parents with re-organizing all their books, and I found a book I used to read together with my father when I was little. Well, read, the whole book is like a comic but without one word.
The story tells about a boy who wakes up one morning and sees it's snowing outside, so he puts on his clothes and runs outside to make a snowman. Piece by piece he builds up the snowman until he's finished, and then he goes inside and goes toe sleep. Then he wakes up in the middle of the night and he goes outside, and there he finds out his snowman is alive. The snowman greets him and they go inside, they do lots of stuff and the boy shows his snowman things like the television, and a lamp and the stove (where the snowman almost melts) and he lets him eat ice and dress up in the clothes of the boys father and they play with balloons, the boy shows the snowman his dads car and the snowman lies down in the fridge, and they eat something together and then the snowman wants to show the boy something... He takes the boy outside and he holds his hand and they start running faster and faster until they fly, and they fly to the city and there they see the sun is coming up again, so they have to go back home. They fly back home and they say goodbye and the boy goes to sleep again. But when he wakes up he runs outside to meet his new friend the snowman... he finds out the snowman has melted.
And I used to cry every time we read that story, because I had liked the snowman so much and I felt so bad for the boy. (yeah, I was five or something)
But it's really sad. Poor boy. Poor snowman. :'(

Frogs

Did you know its frog time here? I was just bicycling home from dancing lessons when I saw two girls standing along the side of the road. So I stopped, and asked what they were doing. And they told me they were rescuing frogs. Because, in spring, this time of the year, the frogs come out of their hibernation (is that even a word in english) and go back to the pond where they were born to make babyfrogs with their partners and lay eggs in the pond. So there were like 20 frogs on the road and we picked them up and brought them to the pond on the other side of the road. (some were on top of each other) And then the girls went their way and i went mine, and i rescued another 10 frogs or so. Rescued, because otherwise they had been run over by cars and bicycles, like the other hundred frogs I see every morning.
Don't you think I'm a hero? I should get medal or something: (Frog Hero of the Year!!)

:D

OK, nou I really have to go. really. Really laurie.

Sunshine

I JUST LOVE THE SUN!
It makes me so happy when I wake up at 6.30 am and I look out of my window and the sun is shining brightly... I think there should be a day to honour the sun, and it should be honoured on the 21st of June, which is the longest day of the year.. :D

Reasons why it's a great idea to have a day on which we honour the sun:

1. The sun makes me and everyone else in this world happy. Without the sun we would be depressed lonely people who never come out of the house and only eat potatoes and spinage.


2. The sun is responsible for the life on this blue planet, if the sun didn't exist we wouldn't exist either.


3. I'm gonna marry the sun when i'm older, so if the sun didn't exist i would stay alone my whole life.


there are much more reasons but i can't write them all down because drawing the three drawings above took me like an hour soo.. xD (yeahh, drawing skills people)


XO- LPC

PS. Just remember, 21st of June.. DAY OF THE SUN :D

Feeling

Sometimes I have a funny feeling, I don't know how to describe it but it's a bit like homesickness, only vaguer. I get this feeling when for example I look at the clouds on a sunny day, when I look at mountains, when I see a beautiful sunset, when I see a picture of a city as seen from an airplane when it's night (You know, everything is dark exept some lights that show where the city is and you can vaguely see where the horizon is because the sky is just a bit lighter than the rest).
It's a very awkward feeling, I feel something's missing but I don't know what...
I get the same feeling when I listen to some songs, like:

The river flows in you- Yiruma


Amélie Poulain - Comptines d'un autre été


I Love these songs! There are more, but I'm not putting them all in this post otherwise it would take too much space :)


I think I'm going to start my homework, otherwise I'm not able to finish it... Yeah I know I've said this like 5x now to myself, but I keep finding ways to escape a bit longer from starting like looking on peoples blogs and posting things on my own blog and getting off the paper around my life sciences book and putting a new one on it (I don't know what it's called in english but here in my country we have to sort of giftwrap our books. That is because we actually borrow them from school and we have to return them at the end of the year, so they make us giftwrap them...)

I think I'm going to start now for real. :)

XOXO- LPC

Barney

You all still remember Barney, the big purple dinosaur in that program we used to watch when we were little? Today during English class that song suddenly stuck in my head:

I love you
You love me
We're a happy family
With a great big hug and
A kiss from me to you
Won't you say you love me too?

I love you
You love me
We're best friends
Like friends should be
With a great big hug
And a kiss from me to you
Won't you say you love me too?

(www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsKO_r76kfQ)

I dedicate this song to all my dear friends and all people I love :)

<3

Sweet sweet memories...

I was just looking at some pictures and a flood of memories came to me... I decided to share some with you:




This is my little (nephew?)(he's the son of my cousin). I first saw him last winter when I went on holiday to Colombia, the country where my mother was born and where all her family still lives.


This is my little sister together with my favourite aunt, in Colombia.


From the left to the right: me, angie, alejandra. (They are two of the friends I made when I was in Colombia)



This is Luz-Angela, my favourite cousin, and me at the 25-years-of-marriage- party my parents held when we were in colombia.


This is the beautiful view on an island we went to a few days in colombia.


This is me and my sister in the swimming pool of the hotel on the island.

At home:

My friend and I taking pictures of ourselves with the webcam. It was one of that days we were so hyperactive we almost bounced off our chairs :)


This last year, when we went to Scotland with the whole class. It was soo fun!


This was a pizza my two best friends and I made a while ago when they were sleeping over at my place. Note the bear-shaped crisps (called Pombeer Chips here) standing in a circle in the middle of the pizza; according to my little sister they were standing around a campfire. (Tip: NEVER put bear-shaped crisps on your pizza; they become really... disgusting in the oven)


This is in the cantine of our school, with a few people from my class. We were verrry bored so we decided to imitate other classmates and teachers


This are my two best friends licking icicles on our way home from school. They picked them from the bottom of some parked cars...
This is a picture that shows what kind of people they are: CRAZY and BEAUTIFUL

Happy

Today was a happy day. I woke up, ate a pancake as breakfast, and at 1 pm. I went to the house of one of my best friends. We went to buy a birthday present for her dad, and as we were walking in the city, i got a text from my other best friend. We met her in the library, and for half an hour maybe we just sat there doing a stupid test in some weird book called: 'How to become a Teenage Witch'. This was how it worked:
-You had a page with 65 questions you could ask the 'oracle'. You had to chose one and remember the number.
-Then you had to go to the 'oracle' page which was a page with 9 pictures. You had to concentrate on your question and then close your eyes and let your hand go over the pictures, until you felt some tension in your hand and you had to pick that picture. You had to remember the picture you chose.
-Then you had to go to another page and see to which page you had to go to find the answer to your question.
And that was the whole book. I really don't understand how that women got that book published. I mean, a kid of 7 years old could have made that.

When we got really bored of doing tests, we went to the Albert Hein and bought a pack to make Apple pie with. Then we went to the house of my friend and baked cookies from the dough.
I love cookies. They were delicious, but I ate too much and I felt sick. And they were my dinner :)

After baking cookies and eating them, we played 'make me up' games on www.funnygames.nl. You know, you have a girl and you have to do her make-up or cut her hair or dress her. Yeah, I know, those games are meant for little girls.

Then my friend had to go and me and my other friend watched FAIL pictures on www.epicfail.com.

And now I'm home and I am writing this and in a quarter of an hour I am going to watch a movie with a friend and a friend and a friend. :D


Oh, and apperently another friend is coming too :D
