holiday planning: TAG wednesday 1

heyy, today is Wednesday, so today I'm posting a TAG. It's a TV show/series TAG. I don't know if it already existed on internet, but I based it on the movies TAG I have post earlier. Here it is:

• Favorite show/series all time
Criminal minds

• Favorite episode from that show/series
Coda (season 6, episode 16). It’s the first episode I have seen, or at least the first I remember. When I saw it, I didn’t know the series at all, and my favorite character had the biggest role in the episode. It’s about a boy with autism. While he plays piano, his parents are kidnapped. The BAU come to help, but the boy doesn’t speak. He does give hints. He draws the hints and Spencer Reid (my favorite character, who is suspected to have autism in the series too) figures them out. There is a cute moment where the boy teaches Spencer the song on the piano he was playing when his parents were kidnapped. The song is beautiful, it is an emotional scene, the only thing I don’t like about the episode, is the second story line. It interrupts the cute moment.


• Favorite actor
Matthew Gray Gubler (surprise)


• Favorite actress
I don’t have a favorite actress

• Favorite guilty pleasure show/series
SpongeBob. It just makes me happy.


• Favorite tear breaker
I have only cried two times while watching a TV show. It were both Criminal Minds episodes. These are the only tearbreakers, but I honestly don't want to watch them again.
*Spoilers*
The first one is ‘Revelations’ (season 2 episode 15). Spencer is kidnapped by someone with multiple personalities. He is beaten, drugged, tortured, death, revived, survives and becomes a drug addict. My dad interrupted me while I was watching and I broke down in tears, because I had to pause it when he died. The second time was last year. Zugzwang (season 8 episode 12). Spencer Reid is in love, and when he finally meets the woman he loves, she is abducted. He offers himself for her, but instead, the killer kills Maeve and herself in one. When Spencer started to cry, I cried too and my mom won’t understand.

• Character from a show/series you love
SPENCER REID !!!

• Character from a show/series that scared you
I don’t have a particular character that scares me. Sometimes when I see an episode, when they show someone, I find them a little scary, but not so scary that I have nightmares about it.

• Character from a show/series you hate
Patrick from SpongeBob. He is just so stupid, he doesn’t share with his friend and he doesn’t think. That’s what most people like/love about Patrick, but me and my sister don’t. We are annoyed by it.

• Show/series you love but everyone hates
SpongeBob and Big Time Rush. When I go to school, I watch it every morning. It wakes me up. But my friends at school don’t like them, and I get it, because I’m 16.

• Show/series you hate but everyone loves
In the Netherlands we have a soap/drama series, GTST (‘goede tijden, slechte tijden’, translated: good times bad times). It’s very popular, but I don’t like it. It’s too fake, to predictable.

• Favorite show/series duo
Spencer Reid and Derek Morgan from Criminal Minds. I love the chemistry between them. I love the brotherly friendship they share.


• Favorite animated show/series
Penguins of Madagascar. The series are a spin-off from the movie Madagascar. It’s about the four penguins who live in a zoo, but they do missions to protect the other animals. I don’t watch much animated TV shows, more cartoons.

• Favorite show/series villain
Plankton from SpongeBob. I think he’s funny and cute.


• What show/series surprised you the most
Big Time Rush. When it first came on TV, I thought it was stupid, but now I like it a lot. I even listen to their songs.


• If you could only watch one show/series forever, what would it be
Criminal Minds, because it keeps surprising me and I love the characters. If Matthew Gray Gubler would leave the show, I would be watching it, but not as obsessive as I do now. I would just watch it like some other crime series we watch. We watch a lot of crime series.


• Recommended show/series
I recommend Criminal Minds, because of the good characters, the good acting, the good stories, and because every episode has some personal things for one of the main characters, which makes them interesting, because it’s not all about solving crimes. Also, Criminal Minds is one of the few shows that focuses on the killer and his behavior, instead of the crime.


I recommend Castle, because it’s a funny crime show. It’s about a writer, who does research for his book at the police station. After his book is published, he stays to help the team because he has another view on things. It’s funny, the chemistry between the main characters is good, and it has much personal time for the characters.


I recommend NCIS/NCIS:LA, because the chemistry between the characters is so fun to watch. There was a combination episode between them, which was really cool to watch. Last year on Tuesday, was first an episode of NCIS and then one of NCIS:LA, but this year, there are two of NCIS.



• If you could marry a show/series character, no matter of his/her age, who would it be
Spencer Reid, I totally LOVE him. He is smart, cute, funny, sensitive, handsome, sweet, helpful, protective, has three P.h.D.’s and two B.A.’s, an IQ of 187, an eidetic memory, can read 20.000 words per minute, can shoot a gun and is not arrogant. He has been through so much, and still is nice to people. How can you NOT love him?!


• One episode you wish had never been made
Criminal Minds ‘Zugzwang’ (season 8 episode 12).
*spoiler*
This is the episode were Spencer’s girlfriend (whom he had never met), is kidnapped by her stalker (who was a female). He tries to save Maeve by pretending he doesn’t love her, but the stalker. She (the stalker) kisses him and figures out it was fake, so she kills herself and Maeve in one shot. When Spencer began to cry, I cried too. It was so sad. The next episodes he isn’t the same. He locks himself in and rudely ignores his team. Why can’t he be happy for once?! If they never made it, he could meet her, they would date, and he would be happy.

• About to die, can only watch one episode of a show/series, which would it be
Criminal Minds, Coda (season 6 episode 16). It was one of the cutest episodes I have ever seen. There isn’t too much action in it, but it has beautiful moments. It’s my favorite episode of every episode I have ever seen from any series.

• Favorite genre
Crime

• Favorite series in that genre
Criminal Minds (surprise), Castle, NCIS, NCIS:LA, Bones.

• First series you saw
I don’t know, but I think it was Sesame Street.


Sorry for my overload on criminal Minds and Spencer Reid
I hope you like it

holiday planning: how to tuesday 1

heyy, today is how to Tuesday, so I'm going to teach you something. And I thought since it is holiday, so some of you must have a lot of time. I don't know how long vacation is in other countries, but in the Netherlands, we have 7 weeks. So I thought, I can teach you something that will take time, so you'll be busy. In 5th grade, my best friend and I used to make comics. They were very simple, a little childish, and we didn't make them as we should have, but they were short and just for fun. She wrote the texts and I drew the pictures. We made three comics, one about bees, one about fish and one about butterflies. They aren't very interesting, but I still have them. They bring back memories of that friendship, because one year later, we weren't best friends anymore.

But now I'm going to teach you how to make a real comic. Sorry I don't have matching pictures to make things more clear, but today I went to the swimming pool from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM, so I didn't had any time to draw.

How to make a comic:

1. Choose your genre, subjects, and style
2. Choose your characters
3. Choose the places
4. Choose your storyline
5. Choose the texts
6. Make a sketch comic
7. And… Begin

1. Choose your genre, subjects, and style
Before you can make a comic, you have to know what kind of comic you want to make. You have to choose a genre (like action, romantic, comedy, horror), subjects (like love, war, family, friendships) and a style. With a style you can make it personal. With style I mean how you draw your comic. You can draw very simple without many details, or very detailed. You can draw manga or chibi, or your own style of drawing. When you have decided your genre, subjects and style, you can continue.

2. Choose your characters
Every story has characters, so for a comic, you need to choose yours. The main character(s), the other important characters, less important characters. You need to give them a recognizable look, something only that character has (different eyes, skin tone, a special haircut). Also, you need to make a personality for each of them (age, connection to the others, talent, abilities, fears) which makes them unique.

3. Choose the places
In a comic, you have to draw everything. If they’re in the woods, you have to draw the trees, leaves, a brown ground, so that your readers know where they are. Every picture has to have a background. It sounds obvious, but some forget it.

4. Choose your storyline
A storyline is very important. You need to write down every action in the right order, decide if you want flash forwards or flashbacks, decide how many conversations, a climax or anti-climax. It’s like making a screenplay for a movie. This will help you to plan how many pictures you need for every action, so that you can fit everything in.

5. Choose the texts
Every comic has conversations, thoughts and texts. Sometimes a picture has a text bloc above it, to introduce a person, place or situation. You don’t have to write whole conversations, only the important sentences, because than it will be more natural when you make the whole comic. Also think of some quotes, some cool reactions or thoughts. If you can’t think of anything, it’s alright, because you don’t need them that hard. But they make a story cooler.

6. Make a sketch comic
If you have your characters, places, storyline and some texts, you can make a sketch version. When you think of the happenings in your story, find some scenes that you think will be the hardest to draw. And sketch them. Try a font for the texts and see if they match your drawing style. Try colors, try different ways of coloring (pencils, ink, markers, digital). Try to find the things that match. If you have a cute drawing style, don’t choose a non-curved font. Use soft and bright colors, but not neon. Use pencils to make it look softer. But for the scary scenes you can use black pencils. When you have tested, you can go to the last step.

7. And… Begin
If you have everything you need, you can start making your comic. Try to work someplace quiet, so you can concentrate. It will take some time to finish it, but the end result will be worth it.


I hope this was useful and I like to see the end results if some of you try this.

I hope you like it!

holiday planning: monday style day 1

heyy, today is the first day of the holiday planning. Every Monday I'm going to introduce a style. Today I'm going to write about the superhero comic style. I don't know if it is a style, but I saw some nice clothing pieces with superhero comic texts and pictures. So now I'm going to show you some outfits or pieces.


This is a batman crop top with high waisted shorts and a blazer. I think this is a very cool outfit for the summer. You can combine it with flipflops or high heels.


This is a superman crop tee. I think it's super cool and cute.


I totally LOVE these high heels. They have these awesome comic texts.


I think this shirt is super funny. It has the typical comic design.


BAZINGA!!! This is a super cool print.


POW! The classic comic shout.


This shirt has al kinds of comic shouts.


This are high waisted comic shorts. I didn't thought they existed, but they do and they are awesome.


They even have comic themed jewelry!


These are also very cool.

I thought they also had comic themed jeans, but they don't have them (yet). I have some sort of drawing book where you can design cloths, so I have designed comic themed jeans.

I hope you like it. Tomorrow I'm going to post a how to... So stay tuned!

chalk art

heyy, last night at 11:00 PM, I got an idea. Me and my sister both have a chalkboard stickers on our doors, and my sister was drawing the twilight logo on hers. I am a huge Hunger Games fan, so I decided to draw the Mockingjay pin. I was busy from 11:00 PM to midnight. This is the result:



I used orange, yellow and red/pink chalk. The red/pink chalk you can't see on the pictures, but in real life, you can see it very clearly.

I hope you like it!

Holiday/Vacation time

heyy, It's summer!!! I don't know about holiday/vacation in other countries, but I have 7 weeks without school. I don't have plans for the first weeks, I maybe go on vacation the last two weeks. But to have something to do, I thought of a program. 6 weeks long (i'm going to start next week) I'm going to post something everyday.

Every Monday I'll post something about a specific style.
Every Tuesday I'm going to post a how to ...
Every Wednesday there will be a TAG post.
Every Thursday is about jewelry.
Every Friday I'll post an outfit.
Every Saturday I'm going to teach you a language.
Every Sunday is to sum up everything of that week.

I have made a planning with all the subjects, and I hope I'll be able to write and post everything. Making and photographing everything will take a lot of time, but than at least I have something to do.

I hope you like it!

shoplog: schoolstuff

heyy, today I went shopping with my sister. It's the beginning of the holiday, so the nicest things won't be sold out. We needed notebooks, a file orderner, wrapping paper, labels, and more stuff.

I made a list with all the stuff I needed, and I didn't find everything, but I also found others things I like, so here are the pictures...


This is a file orderner. When you open it, you have tabs so you can order your files. Last year all my paperwork got creases because I just put them in my backpack. This year, they will be neat. I bought it in the Action (I don't know if they have vacilities in other countries) and it was €1,49.


This is a notebook with tabs, so you can use it for multiple subjects. I bought it at the Kruidvat (a Dutch shop). It was €1,89.


Since my drawing pad was almost empty, I decided I needed a new one. I remembered that I couldn't find one since March, so I decided to take two drawing pads, so I will have enough for the rest of the year. They were €0,89 each at the Action.


Off course I need notebooks. I have calculted I need at least 11 notebooks. At Kruidvat they sell sets of 5 notebooks, so I bought three different sets. They were €0,99 per set.

I also bought notebooks at the Wibra (another Dutch shop) but I forgot to photograph them seperated, s you'll see them on my picture of everything I bought. I bought four notebooks with cool prints, they were €0,39 each.


For mathematics and physics, I need a special kind of notebook. I wanted to buy all my notebooks at Kruidvat, so they'll match. But at the Kruidvat we were, they didn't have them. I was at another village, so I will check the Kruidvat in my village soon. But if they also don't have it, I'll buy some at the action and decorate them with this tape from the Kruidvat, so it will match. They were packed together and the set was €0,99. I bought two sets.


The last thing I bought were these funny erasers. The Action always have funny erasers, but they don't always work. But a friend of my sister has them and we knew they were good, so I bought this set and my sister bought the same in pink. The set was €0,39.

So this is everything I bought today:

The total was €12,06!

The only things I still need are an agenda, writig ink, notebooks for mathematics and physics, wrapping paper, labels and folders. But I've got seven weeks left to buy it.

I hope you like it.

Movies TAG

heyy, since a few days, I'm totally addicted to TAGs. You find them anywhere on youtube, but also on blogs. I like to do them, and I found one online about movies. Since it was only about movies, and not TV shows/series, I made a second version with questions about TV shows/series, and then I also made a TAG about books, music and fashion. I don't know if they were already done, but I made this version. Today I'll only post the Movie TAG. I hope you like it


• Favorite movie all time
The Hunger Games, I’m seriously addicted to THG. I’m counting down to see Catching Fire.


• Favorite scene from that movie
The cave scene (Peeta and Katniss), the feast around the Cornucopia (with Clove and Katniss) and the interviews (Peeta). I totally LOVE the cave scene, it’s romantic, but in the book, it’s even more romantic. The feast scene I love, because I like Clove. She is a little devil. And Peeta’s interview was just so cute.


• Favorite actors
This probably isn’t a shock: Josh Hutcherson and Matthew Gray Gubler. Josh is a very good actor and he is only 20 years old. And he is so HOT <3. Matthew has been my favorite actor since I decided last summer break to watch all the 7 seasons (162 episodes) before season 8 started. I didn’t watched all of them, because I had to watch 6 episodes a day and my mom wouldn’t let me. Besides, I figured out I had seen a lot of them before. So in summer break, I had an overdose MGG and when season 8 began, my obsession hadn’t stopped. My obsession is a bit lower now, because there aren’t new episodes yet, but I am waiting for season 9. I was so happy to see that at the end of season 8, Spencer was still alive.

• Favorite actresses
I don’t have a favorite actress. Sorry.

• Most annoying actor
I also don’t have a most annoying actor. At least I can’t remember, but only because the last few movies I have watched, were with my favorite actors, or other actors I like.

• Most annoying actress
Kristen Steward. Do NOT hate me because of this. I just think that her face expressions are the same every time.

• Best director
I don’t know much directors, especially for movies, but Matthew Gray Gubler (one of my favorite actors) is also a director by the series Criminal Minds (which he plays Spencer Reid in). Normally I watch series with my parents and my sister on the couch when it is on TV, but the channel CM would be on, decided to broadcast the episode after three months. I am bad at waiting, so I downloaded it and watch it on an evening on my bed in a dark room. And it was the most scary episode from CM I have ever seen and he directed it. When they finally broadcasted it on TV, I still got the chills and had to look away at some parts. Crime series don’t scare me that much usual, but limbs were out of joint and it looked like it hurt and I just can’t look at that kind of clips.


• Favorite guilty pleasure movie
I don’t have one favorite guilty pleasure movie, and I don’t have watched some recently. But sometimes I like to watch Disney films. They are just so happy.

• Favorite tear breaker
I don’t have a tear breaker because I have never cried while watching a movie. I DO have cried during an episode from a series, but I’ll answer that in another tag (a TV show/series tag). I don’t know why I don’t cry with movies, because usually I am emotional. I don’t watch a lot of sad movies.

• Character from a movie that scared you the most
I don’t have a character that scared me, because there aren’t much movies don’t scare me. The ones that scare me, don’t particularly have a character which scares me, but most of the time it is the story line that scares me.

• Movie you love everyone hates
Detention. It a teenage movie, starring Josh Hutcherson, so that is how I knew about it, but I loved the rest of the movie too. But critics on internet speak very bad about it. It was a little bit of a confusing story, and some things went very fast, it had clichés, but it was funny. I loved watching it and soon I will watch it again. Maybe I will understand it better after watching it a second time, because the first time, I didn’t understand some things.


• Movie you hate everyone loves
It’s not that I hate them, but I have never seen them and what I heard about it, isn’t really my thing. I’m talking about Harry Potter. All of my friends have seen it and I don’t, so when they talk about it, I can’t follow them. When they try to explain it, it doesn’t sound very interesting to me. So I don’t think I will watch them.

• Favorite movie duo
Peeta and Katniss (Josh Hutcherson and Jennifer Lawrence). I love the chemistry between them on the screen. They are just perfect. (sorry that many of my answers go back to THG)


• Favorite animated movie
I think Madagascar, Ice Age or the Smurfs. I have seen the Smurfs in 3D in the theaters and I recently watched it when it was on TV, and I still like it. I also like the three Madagascar movies and Ice Age, although I like Ice Age less than Madagascar.


• Actor/actress crush
Josh Hutcherson (I’m so predictable)


• Favorite movie villain
Sorry, again a Hunger Games answer. I don’t know if they are called villains, but I like Cato and Clove (the tributes from district 2). They are evil and try to kill everyone, but that’s part of the story. But I like how Clove is a little devil and Cato is HOT.


• What movie surprised you the most
It’s a Dutch movie, it’s called ‘Daglicht’ which means daylight. The story is very interesting, it’s about a woman, who has a son. They think he has autism. The woman finds out that she has a brother, and that he is in a TBS-clinic. He is suspected to have killed a woman and a baby, although the baby is never found. He has autism. The woman thinks he didn’t do it and tries to prove the others wrong. It’s a very touching story, also because I have autism myself. I recognized quite a few things that they (the brother and the son) did.

• If you could only keep one movie, what would it be
The Hunger Games, I’m addicted. That’s all I say.

• Movie recommendation
If you live in the Netherlands, Daglicht. It’s a really good movie. It’s not a comedy, or romantic, but it’s a combination between drama and a little action. If you want an English spoken comedy, try ‘Vampires suck’. It’s a parody on twilight and it’s really funny. My friend and I laughed so hard. If you like action, try ‘the darkest hour’. I watched it at school at the last day, and it was such a cool movie.


• If you could go back in time and marry an actor/actress from back then (now old), who would it be
I don’t know, because I don’t have a favorite actor which is old now. Matthew Gray Gubler is 33 (I’m 16, so he is older), but I don’t know how he was when he was 16/17, because I don’t know much about his childhood.

• One remake you wish had never been made
I don’t think I have seen a remake of something, so I can’t answer this.

• About to die, you can only watch one movie, which would it be
It would be Catching Fire, because I have not seen it. Because when I die than, I have at least seen the movie I have been waiting for so long.

• Favorite movie genre
Action, comedy, romantic (I like a lot of genres)

• Favorite movie from that genre
Action: THG, the darkest hour
Comedy: vampires suck, detention
Romantic: I don’t have a favorite romantic movie, I just love romance.

• What’s the first movie you remember watching in theaters
It was The Tigger Movie. In the Netherlands it is called Tijgertje de film. I was three or four years old and went with my mother, a friend, and her mother (which is a friend of my mother). I don’t know what I thought of it, but we have a picture with me and that friend in front of the movie poster.



I hope you liked it. If you decide to do this tag too, comment the link to your post or video so I can see what others think.

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.


real people


my own styled kawaii/chibi/manga kind of drawing

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.


K3


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.
