the child in me 10 question tag
heyy, today I was surfing on youtube and found a lot of nice videos. I found one where someone did a 10 question tag about her childhood. I wrote down the questions and answered them myself. I hope you like it and maybe some of you will do it too. If you do this tag, post the link in the comments so I can read about others. I will post pictures. Here it goes:
1.) As a kid, what was your dream job?
In the beginning of elementary school, I always told people I wanted to become an artist.
Later in elementary school, I wanted to become a drawer. I wanted to illustrate books, sketch people, make comics (my best friend then wanted to become a writer, so we made a deal that I would illustrate her books and she would write for the comics). I have always loved to draw, and I still do. Now I draw real people, and my own styled kawaii/chibi/magna kind of drawings. Only I think that I can’t earn money with it. Not that I don’t think I’m bad at drawing, but because of the economics at this time. I don’t know what I want to do later, maybe something with drawing or something else creative, but I also like to be a criminologist or working in a (forensic) lab. But in my country (the Netherlands) we don’t have much criminologist or forensic labs. But I still have two years in high school to chose.

2.) How old were you when you found out Santa wasn’t real and how did you find it out?
In the Netherlands, we don’t really believe in Santa. We have another kind of celebration: Sinterklaas. He lives in Spain, but somewhere in half November, he comes to the Netherlands and when you put your shoe at the chimney or fireplace (or your door if you don’t have a chimney or fireplace) and when you wake up, there’s a small present. On December 5th, he celebrates his birthday and gives all the children lots of presents. But I will answer this question for Sinterklaas instead of Santa. I don’t know how old I was exactly, maybe 9 or 10, but I know that my parents told me he wasn’t real. I told them I already had my suspicious. But I had to pretend I still believed in it, because I have a younger sister. But my parents told her when she was 9, and then we only celebrated for two years, because they didn’t want to buy so many presents when we don’t even believed it anymore. Now we just sometimes do one present which is for our whole family, like two or three years ago, we got a kinect.
This is how Sinterklaas looks like
3.) What was your favorite Halloween costume as a kid?
In the Netherlands, we don’t really celebrate Halloween, it’s more an American holiday. Some of us do, because one time I was with a friend who lives in another city, and they did celebrate it (for the kids in the neighborhood), but I knew it too late so I was one of the few who wasn’t dressed in a costume. But in the Netherlands, we have another holiday. It doesn’t have an English word, and it is celebrated different in some parts of our country, but at my elementary school, there was a day somewhere in February, when you go to school in a costume and than you play all different kind of games. I don’t remember all the costumes I wore, but I was a cheerleader two times, one time I went to school in pajamas, I was a Hawaiian beach girl one time, and the other two times I don’t remember. That were probably the first and last year of elementary school, because the first time was too long ago and the last time I don’t know IF I wore a costume, because I think none of the girls wore a costume (or it was something like a hat and fingerless gloves) and all the boys were dresses as ghosts. My favorite costume would be the cheerleader, because I wore the same costume two years, but there were two years between them and I still fitted in the costume.
4.) What were your favorite cartoons/shows as a kid?
When I was really really young (like 4 years), I loved sesame street. When I was a bit older (like 8 years), I watched totally spies and Pucca and Ernst, Bobby and the rest and Kim possible. Later (like 11 years), I watched a lot of Nickelodeon cartoons and shows (I still do actually, because I’m sixteen, still live with my parents (duh…) and have a 13 year old sister who owns the remote control), I liked to watch SpongeBob (I still do), Winx Club and Anubis.
This are the sesame street characters from Holland
Pucca!!!
The Anubis cast
5.) Was there a band or musician that you were completely obsessed with growing up?
Yes there was. In the Netherlands and Belgium, we have a popular girl group K3, which were 3 girls/woman (they are older than 25, at least) with names beginning with the K (Karen, Kristel and Kathleen). It still exists, but Kathleen had left the group and Josje replaced her. But when that happened, I was already too old for them. My sister and I also liked M-kids. This was also a girl group, but it were teens who sang. They also sang English, while K3 sings Dutch. But this was till I was 10. Since than, I haven’t been completely obsessed with one singer or band or style. I like to listen to different styles of music.

M-Kids
6.) Do you still watch cartoons?
Yes I do. I watch SpongeBob, Phineas and Ferb and Fairly Odd Parents.
SPONGEBOB!!!
7.) What is the one habit from childhood that is stuck with you till this day?
I don’t think I can answer this question, because I’m too young and I’m still sort of in my childhood, and I don’t think I have a habit from my early childhood which is stuck with me or what I still do.
8.) Do you have jam sessions in your car and go wild dancing?
Half. I do have jam sessions (sort of, but I only sing on slow songs and I don’t sing very loud), but I don’t go wild dancing. I love dancing, but I only dance on hip-hop/street dance choreographies. Last Saturday I had a dance performance with my dance group. It was a lot of fun. On vacation we had short simple dance choreographies, which were also fun to do. But I don’t do impulsive/freestyle dancing, because I don’t know what to do. I can’t improvise.
9.) You’re at a hotel. Do you steal the shampoos and conditioners from your room?
I don’t know, because I usually don’t go to hotels. On vacation we usually stay in the Netherlands. But on May 28, we went to a hotel in Turkey. But they didn’t have any shampoos or conditioners. I think I won’t do it, because I’m a good girl. I don’t steal things, even if they are shampoos or conditioners from hotels.
10.) Looking back what would be one advice you would give your younger self?
Even though I’m only sixteen, I would say to myself to enjoy my time at school more, and have more fun with friends instead of only making homework and learning for tests.(I don’t exactly know how the American school system works, because I live in the Netherlands. I will try to say it like how it goes in my country and how I think it is in America). In 7th grade (America) or the first class (Holland) I got excellent grades. My average grades were B (American) or 8,5 (Holland) and I had more than 7 times an A+ (American) or a 10 (Holland). This may not look very good, but it was more than the rest of my class. But I worked harder than the rest. I didn’t hang out much with friends, and I didn’t have fun in class, while my friends did. All I was doing was paying attention to the teacher. I was/am a big nerd. In the 8th grade or second class my average grades were lower, but not bad. I still worked harder than most, but my grades were more average. In the 9th grade (sorry for this long story) or third class, my grades were not as average as in the year before. I had much A+’s or 10’s, but also much F’s or <5,5. It was harder, and I had a lot of stress. I went to the 10th grade or fourth class, and then it went wrong. In December they (school) decided I couldn’t pass this year, and I only had to take 5 subjects. I also didn’t have to make homework or learn for tests, so since December I had fun at school. I joked with friends, but I still didn’t hang out with friends much, because school finished earlier for me. But time at school was fun. I wished I did that earlier, than I would have had more fun memories from school. Sorry for my long story, but that would be my advice to my younger me.
I hop you like it, and that some of you do the tag too.

primark shoplog
hey another Primark shoplog today. I think it's my third Primark shoplog. So earlier this week, me and my mom went shopping. We both love the Primark and its prices, so we took the car to Rotterdam while my sister was at school. The clothes that I will show you, is not everything we bought. These are my clothes. My mom also bought somethings for my sister. Since I'm writing this on my phone, I can't post pictures next to my description. So I describe the clothes and the pictures are below my post.
First we went for dresses, because I don't need new jeans or shirts. I had one dress and it was from Primark. It's in my first Primark shoplog and look of today: sweet sixteen. It's dark blue with white leopard print. Now I found the same shape and type of dress in other patterns. They had plain black, plain white, plain baby blue, baby blue with flowers and red with white polka dots. I liked the baby blue with flowers and the black dress, so we bought them. The top part is elastic and stretchy, while the bottom is ruffled. They have a small belt attatched, but I like them with a bigger belt (I wore it with a belt from a Primark blouse showed in my second Primark shoplog). But now I had three dresses and one belt (which is damaged by the way, so I can't wear it often), so we decided to look for bigger belts too. That brought us to the accesories part. We found a nice belt, the front has nice details and the back is elastic and you can close it with buttons. We decided to take a brown and a black one. Then the jewelry, which I love so much from Primark. I don't use a lot of jewelry, so it is a wast of money for me to buy expensive jewelry. But at Primark they are cheap and still the quality is good enough for my. So I saw a pretty cute Paris themed charm bracelet and later I found a matching necklace. The bracelet has an Eifel tower charm, a heart, an I <3 Paris charm, some old pink roses and some cream pearls. The necklace has an Eifel tower, a heart and a rose. I also found a neon pink mustache necklace. This is also the first mustache item I bought for myself. This were all my items.
For my sister we bought the same black dress but smaller, a denim short and a Monster High pyjama.
Scroll a little bit further for the pictures of my clothes (P.S. look at how cute my cat is in the right corner of the pictures of the dresses and belts)
I hope you like it!

note + this or that beauty tag
heyy, sorry sorry sorry that it took me so long to post another thing on this blog. I don't know why I didn't post since May 11, because I don't have homework or tests to make for school, but I started taking more lessons at school after May 12, because I was bored at home. I had full schooldays till 3 o'clock, so when I got home, I was a bit tired. Before the schoolbreak we had, I went to school for just a few hours. I also went on vacation May 28, so then I couldn't post, because in our hotel room in Turkey, we didn't have wi-fi. When I got back, it was June 4. And why I didn't post since then? I went to school again. But last week I didn't had school, so I don't have a reason for not posting then. Well, I did other things, like writing stories, playing games online, practicing for my dancing show (we are peforming July 6), shopping (I will post what I bought tomorrow) and I had a wedding. But now, I have another post for you and more time for posting in the future, because I unofficially have Summer break!!! But now my actual post:
This morning I was watching videos on youtube and I saw a beauty tag video. I want to make videos too, but I'm Dutch and I don't like my voice on videos or recorded. Also, when I want to talk English, it won't come out of my mouth. It's very weird, because I can hear/understand it perfectly, I can read it very fast and I can write it, and when I sing you can understand what I say, but when I talk, it won't happen :(
This is the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxwr59OFlJ4
It's by SarahLynnFashion. She has all kinds of fashion videos, like hauls, OOTD, ect.
She also has an amazing craft account, it's called SoCraftastic.
But the beauty tag. Since I can't talk English, I thought I write the beauty tags I want to do. So this beauty tag you see two things beauty related, and I have to chose one and give an explaination. Some of the choices I left out, because I can't answer them (like chose between two brands of clothes, but we in Holland don't have those brands). If you have a question for me, leave it as a comment.
So I will begin:
First make-up related:
- blush or bronzer: I don't wear a lot of make-up, and I don't have a bronzer (I know I should be ashamed) so I go with blush.
- lip gloss or lipstick: definitely lip gloss, I think that for my age (16 years) lip gloss is more appropriate, and I like how it shines and I don't have many lipsticks (two I think) but I do have a lot of lip glosses, so yeah...
- eye liner or mascara: I go with mascara sice I don't use eye lner (in Holland eye liner is liquid, and I use an eye pencil)
- foundation or concealer: foundation, because I normally don't have much to conceal (if that is a real sentence) and foundation just makes my skin looks more natural.
- neutral or color eye shadow: neutral I guess (if black is neutral, because it isn't a color). I dn't wear eye shadow often, only for special occasions and than I wear black eye shadow with grey and white for smoky eyes.
brushes or sponges: brushes,because I don't have sponges.
This were all the make-up related things, now on to nails:
- long or short: LONG!!! I like my nails longer, because it looks prettier (unless they are too long). Only my nails tend to break when they are a good size (okay, only one nail breaks and than I have to cut all the other nails to make it look normal and than start over again)
- acrylic or natural: natural, because I have never used fake/acrylic nails. My mom did, and she didn't like it. I also think it isn't very useful because I craft a lot and that won't go well if my nails are too long.
- bright or dark: I like bright colors, like neon pink and apple green (I also think they match well together). I don't use much dark nail polish, but when I do, it is for nail art and not for polishing.
- flower or no flower: I don't exactly know what they meant with this, but I think I go for no flower, because I never had flowers on my nails.
Now I am done with the nails, so I choose for fashion next:
- jeans or sweat pants: this one is hard for me, because I like how jeans look, and I wear jeans more often because I don't like being seen in sweat pants, but I do wear them to my dancing classes and physio (although I sometimes jeans since I go immediatly after school) and I also wear them when I have nothing to do and nowhere to go. So I think I go for jeans.
- long sleeves or short: I like short sleeves, even in the winters in Holland (which are very cold), because you can combine them more. In the winter I wear t-shirts with jeans and jackets, blazers, cardigans, ect. In the summer I wear t-shirts or tanktops wih shorts (when the weather is letting me, beause in Holland, even the summers are cold and it rains most of the time).
- dresses or skirts: I like dresses more than skirts, and I don't know why. The skirts I have are pretty bad, and I don't see many nice skirts that will look good on my in the shops. I also don't have many dresses, but I found one at Primark (the dark blue with white leopard print I wore in the birthday post April 20/21) and now I found the same type of dress in other patterns, so now I also have a black plain dress and a baby blue with flowers, I will sow them in another post.
- stripes or plaid: this is a hard question. I don't like stripes, but I also don't like plaid. I like other types of prints, like leopard or zebra. I also don't have clothes with stripes or plaid, I think.
- flip flops or sandals: flip flps all the way! I wear them all summer, so yeah...
- scarves or hats: uhmmm... I think I will have to go with scarves, because I don't wear hats. I like hats and I have an awesome leopard printed hat, but I don't know when to wear it. I have multiple scarves that I do wear, but I don't like it very mch.
- studs or dangly earrings: studs, because I have awesome studs, and because dangly earringstend to mix with my hair and than I can't get them out. But I don't wear earrings very often, because I have long hair which I don't like in a ponytail or braid, so my hair is loose, and it covers my ears. I don't like ponytails, so I don't wear them, even when I'm dancing or swimming. I only wear it at my gym classes from school (but only because it is a rule). But back to earrings I love studs, but I don't wear them often.
- necklaces or bracelets: I make a lot of bracelets, but I like necklaces more. It's not that I don't like bracelets, it's that I don't like wearing them, because they irritate me. When I'm writing, they make clinging noises at the table. Necklaces don't make noises, unless they are too long. I have a lot of necklaces, but I don't wear them very often. Most of the time, I forget to put on jewelry (shame on me...)
- heels or flats: I don't know... I like heels, because they look so good and make you longer and are awesome. But lats walk easier, and I have more of them. I only have one pair of heels :(
- cowboy boots or riding boots: I think I can't answer this, because I don't have any boots. In the winter I walk on sneakers, in spring I walk on thinner sneakers, in summer I walk on flip flops and in autumn I walk on one of th sneakers mentioned in winter and spring.
- jacket or hoodie: I sy jacket, because I only have one hoodie and I like it when you can close and open something you wear over your shirt.
Ow gosh it's so long... Now let's start with hair:
- curly or straigt: my hair is in the middle between curly ad straight, bu sometimes I curl my hair and I think it looks pretty. I never straighten my hai. So I go for curly.
- bun or ponytail: I have to go for ponytail. As you could read before, I don't like ponytails, but I dislike buns even more. It can lok good on other people, but for myself I don't like it.
- bobby pins or butterfly clip: I think butterly clips (but without the butterfly, if yo know what I mean). In Holland we have a sort of butterfly clips, but they are just brown or black without the butterfly. Besides, I have thick hair and much hair, so bobby pins slide out of my hair. Butterfly clips stay longer, but not long enough for a school day, sadly.
- long or short: LONG!!! I have long hair, and I like it. I will never cut it sort. NEVER! It's not that I don't like people with short hair or short haircuts, but I LOVE my long hair, and I will never change it (sorry for this).
- light or dark: this is hard, because my hair is in the middle of light and dark brown. In the summer it gets ligher, and I like it, but on some photos it looks darker than it is, and I like that too. I can't decide.
- up or down: down, because than people see my long hair. I'm proud of my hair. That's all I say, otherwise we get the same story as with long or short.
Now done with the beauty stuff and just some random stuff:
- rain or shine: most people will say shine, but I think I go with rain, because than I can stay inside and craft or blog or watch movies, ect. Although I don't like it when I have to go to school.
- summer or winter: summer, because in the winter it snows, and we have to go to school, so I have to cycle to school and I am afraid I will fall.
- spring or autumn: spring,because it begins with more sunshine, the snow disappears, my birthday :)
- chocolate or vanilla: hard... I like vanilla ice cream, but I also like brownies, chocolate cookies, cake, cream, white chocolate bars, ect. Chocolate wins!
Now I'm finished. Sorry if it was too long.
I hope you like it and if you want to do a this or that beauty tag too, jus go ahead, but mention my blog, okay?

Some of the choices I left out, because I can't answer them (like chose between two brands of clothes, but we in Holland don't have those brands). If you have a question for me, leave it as a comment.
So I will begin:
First make-up related:
- blush or bronzer: I don't wear a lot of make-up, and I don't have a bronzer (I know I should be ashamed) so I go with blush.
- lip gloss or lipstick: definitely lip gloss, I think that for my age (16 years) lip gloss is more appropriate, and I like how it shines and I don't have many lipsticks (two I think) but I do have a lot of lip glosses, so yeah...
- eye liner or mascara: I go with mascara sice I don't use eye lner (in Holland eye liner is liquid, and I use an eye pencil)
- foundation or concealer: foundation, because I normally don't have much to conceal (if that is a real sentence) and foundation just makes my skin looks more natural.
- neutral or color eye shadow: neutral I guess (if black is neutral, because it isn't a color). I dn't wear eye shadow often, only for special occasions and than I wear black eye shadow with grey and white for smoky eyes.
brushes or sponges: brushes,because I don't have sponges.
This were all the make-up related things, now on to nails:
- long or short: LONG!!! I like my nails longer, because it looks prettier (unless they are too long). Only my nails tend to break when they are a good size (okay, only one nail breaks and than I have to cut all the other nails to make it look normal and than start over again)
- acrylic or natural: natural, because I have never used fake/acrylic nails. My mom did, and she didn't like it. I also think it isn't very useful because I craft a lot and that won't go well if my nails are too long.
- bright or dark: I like bright colors, like neon pink and apple green (I also think they match well together). I don't use much dark nail polish, but when I do, it is for nail art and not for polishing.
- flower or no flower: I don't exactly know what they meant with this, but I think I go for no flower, because I never had flowers on my nails.
Now I am done with the nails, so I choose for fashion next:
- jeans or sweat pants: this one is hard for me, because I like how jeans look, and I wear jeans more often because I don't like being seen in sweat pants, but I do wear them to my dancing classes and physio (although I sometimes jeans since I go immediatly after school) and I also wear them when I have nothing to do and nowhere to go. So I think I go for jeans.
- long sleeves or short: I like short sleeves, even in the winters in Holland (which are very cold), because you can combine them more. In the winter I wear t-shirts with jeans and jackets, blazers, cardigans, ect. In the summer I wear t-shirts or tanktops wih shorts (when the weather is letting me, beause in Holland, even the summers are cold and it rains most of the time).
- dresses or skirts: I like dresses more than skirts, and I don't know why. The skirts I have are pretty bad, and I don't see many nice skirts that will look good on my in the shops. I also don't have many dresses, but I found one at Primark (the dark blue with white leopard print I wore in the birthday post April 20/21) and now I found the same type of dress in other patterns, so now I also have a black plain dress and a baby blue with flowers, I will sow them in another post.
- stripes or plaid: this is a hard question. I don't like stripes, but I also don't like plaid. I like other types of prints, like leopard or zebra. I also don't have clothes with stripes or plaid, I think.
- flip flops or sandals: flip flps all the way! I wear them all summer, so yeah...
- scarves or hats: uhmmm... I think I will have to go with scarves, because I don't wear hats. I like hats and I have an awesome leopard printed hat, but I don't know when to wear it. I have multiple scarves that I do wear, but I don't like it very mch.
- studs or dangly earrings: studs, because I have awesome studs, and because dangly earringstend to mix with my hair and than I can't get them out. But I don't wear earrings very often, because I have long hair which I don't like in a ponytail or braid, so my hair is loose, and it covers my ears. I don't like ponytails, so I don't wear them, even when I'm dancing or swimming. I only wear it at my gym classes from school (but only because it is a rule). But back to earrings I love studs, but I don't wear them often.
- necklaces or bracelets: I make a lot of bracelets, but I like necklaces more. It's not that I don't like bracelets, it's that I don't like wearing them, because they irritate me. When I'm writing, they make clinging noises at the table. Necklaces don't make noises, unless they are too long. I have a lot of necklaces, but I don't wear them very often. Most of the time, I forget to put on jewelry (shame on me...)
- heels or flats: I don't know... I like heels, because they look so good and make you longer and are awesome. But lats walk easier, and I have more of them. I only have one pair of heels :(
- cowboy boots or riding boots: I think I can't answer this, because I don't have any boots. In the winter I walk on sneakers, in spring I walk on thinner sneakers, in summer I walk on flip flops and in autumn I walk on one of th sneakers mentioned in winter and spring.
- jacket or hoodie: I sy jacket, because I only have one hoodie and I like it when you can close and open something you wear over your shirt.
Ow gosh it's so long... Now let's start with hair:
- curly or straigt: my hair is in the middle between curly ad straight, bu sometimes I curl my hair and I think it looks pretty. I never straighten my hai. So I go for curly.
- bun or ponytail: I have to go for ponytail. As you could read before, I don't like ponytails, but I dislike buns even more. It can lok good on other people, but for myself I don't like it.
- bobby pins or butterfly clip: I think butterly clips (but without the butterfly, if yo know what I mean). In Holland we have a sort of butterfly clips, but they are just brown or black without the butterfly. Besides, I have thick hair and much hair, so bobby pins slide out of my hair. Butterfly clips stay longer, but not long enough for a school day, sadly.
- long or short: LONG!!! I have long hair, and I like it. I will never cut it sort. NEVER! It's not that I don't like people with short hair or short haircuts, but I LOVE my long hair, and I will never change it (sorry for this).
- light or dark: this is hard, because my hair is in the middle of light and dark brown. In the summer it gets ligher, and I like it, but on some photos it looks darker than it is, and I like that too. I can't decide.
- up or down: down, because than people see my long hair. I'm proud of my hair. That's all I say, otherwise we get the same story as with long or short.
Now done with the beauty stuff and just some random stuff:
- rain or shine: most people will say shine, but I think I go with rain, because than I can stay inside and craft or blog or watch movies, ect. Although I don't like it when I have to go to school.
- summer or winter: summer, because in the winter it snows, and we have to go to school, so I have to cycle to school and I am afraid I will fall.
- spring or autumn: spring,because it begins with more sunshine, the snow disappears, my birthday :)
- chocolate or vanilla: hard... I like vanilla ice cream, but I also like brownies, chocolate cookies, cake, cream, white chocolate bars, ect. Chocolate wins!
Now I'm finished. Sorry if it was too long.
I hope you like it and if you want to do a this or that beauty tag too, jus go ahead, but mention my blog, okay?

Lip tatoo's
Hello everyone, sorry I haven't post something lately. My holiday is almost over, so then I will post more, because I had a busy holiday. I don't even remember everything I have done. In my free time, I have read a lot. Sorry for that.
Tomorrow is mother's day in the Netherlands, I don't know if they celebrate it in other country's, so I went to the stores to buy something. I also went to buy a new drawing notebook, but when I was looking (and didn't found it), I found something else I was looking for: liptatoo's. So I bought some. I haven't tried them yet because I just came home, but I have a picture. They original colours are brighter, but you can see the patterns.
I hope you like it.

look of today: High-Tea & B-day party
hello, yesterday I had my sweet sixteen birthday high-tea, and it was very nice. My friends and I had a great time, the food was delicious, it was just very fun to do. The day before, my mom and I made all the food. We made mini cupcakes, whoopies, brownies, mini chocolates, cookies, and more delicious stuff. I wore a primark dress I hadn't wear before, because it was too cold. Now, the weather in the Netherlands is getting better, it is time for dresses and skirts.
My dress is dark blue with white leopard print. It has a small belt, but I don't like the small belt, so I chose the bigger belt from my new primark blouse. It is very cute together. I also wear black tights and my black high heels. I made very much pictures of my in that dress, but I'm not going to show them all. Most of the pictures were made in front of my jewellery closet with mirror.
Here are the pictures:
I also have some pictures of the food from my high-tea:
I hope you like it!

market
hello, this weekend I was on a market to sell selfmade jewellery. I didn't sell much, because most of the people there weren't looking for jewellery. I earned €11,50. Here are some pictures from the beginning:
Altough I didn't sell much, it was nice to do. I also bought some stuff there, but I don't have any pictures of them. I bought a purple snake patterned scarf, some blue lace to craft with and an apple mold to make mini chocolates for my birthday high tea, because today is my birthday. I will post photos of my birthday outfit later, because my mom is curling my hair. The pictures are from before my hair was curled, but maybe I will post some pictures of my curled hair too.
I hope you like it.
