I could almost kiss the stars for shining so bright

Happy Sunday!
Ahh Sunday evenings.

Today I went to Westfield for my friend's birthday, we did some shopping and literally 'shopped until we dropped'. We actually fell on the floor in the middle of the mall!


This is a picture I took yesterday morning, I just thought it really brings out my 'saturday' mood. 

Well. . . this I took 30 minutes ago, this is my sunday evening mood. Not ready for the week AT ALL. 

but. . . I am kind of excited for this week it is our school's last week before Half Term and our Dance Show is on the 10th! :) For the dance show we are performing a very . . .
let's just say ''different'' piece. I am not so excited about the actual dance, I am excited about our costumes, hair and make up (I know, I know terribly tacky) 


So after this week is done, we'll have our half term and for half term me, my sisters and my dad are going to DISNEYLAND PARIS! hahah 
I am so excited! I've never actually been to a disney land in paris so yaay!:) 
Plus I really really really really really love roller coasters and they have awesome ones there!:) 
I might even record my trip and post it here! 

Thanks For Reading.

Don't Stop Till You Get Enough !

Hello lovelies:)!
I am very proud of myself today; I attended a 50 minute tennis lesson (like I do every saturday) and a Michael Jackson Style Dance Class (which I have been slacking of lately). Therefore I am completely tired and probably after writing this will go to bed even though it's only 18:54 to be exact. As you can probably tell or not, I am deeply in love with dance. I've been seriously dancing since I was 5 (i think) and by 'seriously' I mean taking classes, performing etc.
Michael Jackson has become my dancing role model since he died...i know it sound absolutely horrible but the truth is I never really listened to his music before he died.

Today we have been learning the moves to 'They Don't Really Care About Us'.


I just adore the meaning of this song it is so moving and the music video is just truly amazing. 

What have you been up to lately? I would love to know!

When Will You Find Me Baby ?

Happy Friday! Today I am  writing while listening to Bruno Mars - Marry You; the song has been stuck in my head for this week, I would find myself singing this at the most random moments. If you haven't before heard it before, here it is:
This week has been rather like a roller coaster for me! On Monday I attended a Dynamic Flow Yoga Class at Pineapple Dance Studios. Dynamic Flow Yoga is part of my toning up and getting fit routine and yes like most people I am toning up and getting fit for the summer! I promise myself I will. My current motivations are cocktail dresses and swimsuits.
A body like this by summer please!

everyday; we're survivors.

good evening!
as i am writing this post i am also hoping to visit 'fortnum and mason' next week.
Fortnum and Mason is basically a very posh place where they sell confectionery, tea and coffee etc.
I have been inspired to do so because i recently read a blogpost about simply: tea.

I didn't drink tea for a veeery long time, and as a result i'm craving it now.
I thought I'll just show you which tea and confectionery i'm planning to get:
Afternoon Blend Tea mmm...

This is the most amazing tea ever; Strawberry and Black Tea is perfect in the summer.

Marshmallow Hot Chocolate: absolute pure pleasure. 

Chocolate Bar Library. Delicious. 

Thank you for reading this brief post!

stomp stomp

3rd post for today! wow.
i just simply can't sleep right now. even though i'm supposed to. i don't think i've been resting enough recently. . .

so i just thought that i will share some inspiring pictures with you. i love photography and actually have big plans for my photography works. these are the pictures that inspire me to continue photography and just pictures which i find generally amazing and inspiring.


This just reminds me of road trips, i actually want to have a road trip but i'm not sure that it is entirely safe so i'm still thinking about, i think it will be immensely fun to go on a road trip around italy or france with a friend or two! 

I do want to travel the world, but only when i'm older and have grandchildren and when i have a lot of time to spend visiting different places, tasting different food and enjoying life at every angle possible!

This is probably what perfect means to me. 

Organised. This is what i hope to have some day, a perfect closet full of gorgeous clothes. I've always wanted a walk-in closet! 

This is what i try to live by; i am the kind of person who isn't always confident however i am very proud to say that my confidence is building up. This picture is a reminder for me that no matter what they say, i am still good, and so are you. 

This looks so nice, I can just imagine laying there reading a good book or just lounging around! comment if you'd like a place like that! 

In any situation 'it could be worse' just remember that. 

Birthday wishes. They do come true if you truly believe. 

Mmmm. . . craving hot chocolate now. 

I find this picture very delicate, i don't know what it is about it. Just. Catchy. 

This photograph makes me smile. I've always loved doing that in the sea and for some reason i feel like i am actually taking the picture!

I wonder where she's going? 


I've never been good at painting,sketching, drawing or even doodling. . .but i've always wanted to be. 

I absolutely agree with this. sometimes when the whole world seems to be turning it's back on you keep your chin up and dust yourself of the floor. Be who you are: a hero. 

Lastly I'd like to say good night and i hope all of are having an amazing year so far! 
*this is definitely not the best picture of me. . . haha x 












together we can be alright


hello,
my last post was quite a long one and i'm not sure about the size of this one but i guess i will just go with the "flow".
so today was a fairly boring day i woke up at 7:30 am, got ready and went downstairs where all of my sisters and my brother were sitting. They were eating quietly, probably from lack of sleep. they usually shout and talk super loud. even though i am the oldest i don't think they care much, since they don't listen to me and don't really care. I was late to school because i basically over slept (it happens a lot) . the school day was nothing amazing, i found out two test grades today 77% (A) for History and 90% (A*) for Science. . .pretty good!

After school me and one of my friend stayed at school and bought coca cola and vanilla ice cream to make "coke-floats" which are literally just putting vanilla ice cream inside coke, sound disgusting , i know: but when you actually try it . . . it actually tastes quite good! I didn't finish mine though. . .too sweet.

Thank you for reading!
what did you do today? :)

Hello There!

Hello, I am Jeanette and this is my first blog post. 12.01.11. Yes indeed, the 12th day of 2011, this year has been treating me quite well so far. How about you? 


 I hope this one will be an amazing one (I always do) last year was a year of changes for me the changes were:
-I moved = me being the 'New Girl' and adapting to a new country and it's positive and negative sides.


-I made a lot of new friends, this has been a very good change for me I love meeting new people however I'm not quite used to stepping out of my comfort zone and trying to make new friends caused me to do so. I am thankful because I just got more confident and strong. 


-I stopped talking regularly to one of my friends from home (not where I live now) Surprisingly he was actually one of my best friends and we used to talk about everything. However this summer something happened, I don't really know what though. Was it me who changed? I don't know, but all I know is that I don't speak to him that closely any more. One of my resolutions for this year is to re store the friendship we had and my 'code name' for him on this blog will be: friendfromthepast. I will be updating you on that progress. t


-I got into make up, I have always been a girly girl and always had an enormous interest towards clothes and make up. However it was only in 2010 when I actually decided to learn about how to apply it properly, but this isn't a beauty blog so no more detail required. 


-I improved  my grades in Maths. I am so proud of this. It was my resolution last year and I fulfilled it! I guess my secret is just plainly changing my attitude.  Changing an attitude towards something you don't particularly enjoy actually helps a tremendous lot. 


Now that you know what has been going on for the past year, I guess I'll fill you in with who I am. I wrote a lot about myself in the "About Me" section of my blog but I'll get into the details now. I am a Taurus with Gemini rising which describes me as intelligent, cautious and stubborn. I personally agree with that; I was always quire capable of getting good grades and managing to read lots of books and just wanting to know everything (which I don't of course) and I am very cautious I always think about if what I'm doing is right. I always hope it is but it's not always that way and stubbornness? yes. I am very stubborn and I never give up when I'm truly passionate about something. Sometimes I don't even stop arguing when know the other person is right, very silly, I know.


I also love to think about things, yes, think about things. I guess I have a very thinkable mind. . .if a word like that exists. I always think about what happens when you die? or why 
do people get fatal diseases? is there actually a force such as karma? what can I do to 
improve? am I going to have a happy life? 
I have one theory on why people get fatal diseases. want to hear it? okay, I'll start: I 
believe that God punishes people for not being happy with life for not enjoying life, 
because LIFE was his present to us and please understand that I am definitely not very 
religious however I do believe in God, I know there is force more powerful than anything in this world and he is, God. I also don't think that worship is the right way to thank him. I think that all he wants is for us to be happy and enjoy his present forus, life. I am not 
trying to offend anyone by saying this, I am just telling you my views on the world around us. I also think that if a person realises just how precious life is while being ill with cancer or other disease of such type God hears the person and takes the illness away.


I have a positive attitude generally but sometimes like any person I can get angry, sad or
disheartened. When I do, i read or write, or just lie in bed and let my thoughts drift.
Something very weird about me is the fact that I am scared of a lot of things. Such as:
butterflies, cats, pigeons and frogs. I don't think they are horrible in any way, I just
sometimes feel uncomfortable around them.


Now you know me well. . .kind of. In a month I promise you, you will feel like you
actually know me and as if we met.


Thank you so much for visiting my page and reading this. I truly appreciate that and have
an amazing 2011! x
