Been busy!

Hey everyone!

I’ve been so busy lately! We had  a week-long field course last week, which was just being held at the Uni. But it was so much fun! We were split into groups for the entire week (the same group) and I didn’t know anyone in my group. But we all got along really well, so I had a great time. We did sea survival training, which included a pool session, marine species identification in the aquarium, marine weather forecasting, sediment labs and loads more! Oh yeah, we had a session of learning how to drive a RIB boat. That was all great fun, but exhausting. We were busy 9-5 every day and I am not used to that anymore. So I pretty much went to bed 10pm every night. lol.

Because Easter holidays started a week ago for the other students, the halls here are very quiet. On my floor, and in the kitchen, we are usually with about 20 people. This week, there have only been 4. Me and 3 guys. But it’s been good fun.

Anyway, it’s Easter holidays for me now as well. So I can read books, watch tv and do nothing! Although, I will have to do some Uni work, and I also have to work at my holiday job, but it will still be nice.

Tomorrow I am going to London for the day, and then Wednesday I am heading home for 2 weeks. I am really looking forward to that, it’ll be nice to just be home for a while.

I recently (as in yesterday) started watching True Blood, and I am completely addicted to it now! I have watched 7 episodes so far, and can’t get enough of it!

I’ve also started reading My Sister’s Keeper, which is so good! I really recommend it to people. It’s not just sad, there is a whole moral-dilemma to the book. I’ve already seen the film, but in my opinion the book is much better. And I’ve heard the book has a different ending than the film does. 

That’s all for now. Take care!

I’m in a good mood

I’m in a very good mood today-and I have absolutely no idea why. I’m drowning in Uni work. Have 3 exams and 3 reports/essays due in this week,which I haven’t finished by far (am procrastinating at the moment). I spend 6 hours in the library for the past 3 days in a row. Made a fool out of myself for getting too drunk last Wednesday, again. Made out with a friend which I really should not have done, and now he keeps texting me (when he is drunk) that he loves me. It’s really annoying. Anyways,  for some strange reason, I am still in a good mood. Maybe it’s the weather. It was such a nice sunny day today! If I didn’t spend my day in the library today I would definitely have gone for a nice walk. I don’t know, whatever it is that put me in a good mood today, I though I’d share it with you :)

Take care :D

Just another update

It’s been quite a while since I’ve updated on here, so I thought I’d share a few thoughts. I’m still getting used to the blogging-thing :)

Today I got my exam results from the first semester of University. They don’t count towards my final degree, we just have to pass them, which is a good thing. I did average, passed everything, but not with great marks. So now I intend on improving my work attitude and actually do more work, and put more effort into it! It was kind of a wake-up call which, I think it’s supposed to be. The first semester I did too much partying and not enough work! But that’s going to change now. I have been background reading, going to all of my lectures and doing more work. So far so good!

Other than that all is well! Me and my flatmates have found a house for next year. Starting July we will move there, I’m very excited about it! It’s a really nice house, and it will be good to live with just them, rather than 20 others. I’m curious what it will be like living with just them, I expect we will argue, I suppose that’s only normal. But I’m sure we will have a lot of fun. I’m living with two other girls who I am very close with, and one guy. He has a lot of his own friends, so I think we will be ok.

I’m looking for a job in Southampton, but not that desperately as I still have my holiday job back home. Speaking of home, I haven’t been home yet since the Christmas holidays, I’ve just been so busy! I think I will wait until Easter holidays because they are in 3 weeks already! It’s weird how time goes so quickly at Uni.

So I think that’s enough for now, take care!

January 10th, 2010

Hello! First of all, Happy New Year to everyone. I haven’t posted in ages, I am aware of that. One of my New Year’s resolutions is to post more. I hope everyone has had a good Christmas break. Mine was ok. Very boring to be honest. I went back home on the 17th of Dec. and then started working at Budgens the 18th. So no real break for me. But it was good to be able to work a bit and get some money. The only annoying thing is that I won’t get paid till the end of this Month. But in a way that’s a good thing seeing as I have exams until the 27th of Jan. Before I left Uni to go home I said to myself that I would study loads over Christmas, of course, that didn’t happen. Being the Queen of Procrastination, I barely opened my books. So now I am paying for that mistake and have to revise lots. The past 48hrs have been pretty much all revision. And I am sick of it at the moment, which why I decided to update here :)

The only bad thing that happened over Christmas was that our 4-month old kitten died. My sister was incredibly upset and is still crying over her ‘Poppy’. The way she died was horrible, and at the same time (in a very cruel way) funny. What happened was that my older brother came home late at night to wash his clothes. In his rush, and it was dark as well, he chucked the clothes in and started the washing machine without thinking twice about it. You can guess what happened. The next morning my Mum opened the washing machine and screamed. The kitten was in there. Like I said, its funny in a cruel way. And to be honest, I still can’t believe it happened. It’s not something that happens in real life, or so I thought. Well, let me tell you, it does.

Apart from procrastinating studying, I spend my break mostly catching up with family and watching Glee. Getting quite obsessed with Glee actually. My friend told me to watch it as it’s quite funny. I downloaded the season and watched all of it in 2 weeks. And in the process I got my little sister hooked as well. So it was nice.

I’ve been back at Uni for a week now, it’s been a busy and exciting week. Reunited with my friends and my lectures. Fun! Although we haven’t actually gone out yet, which is surprising. But then again, one of my other NY’s resolutions was to not drink anymore. I made this because I got quite drunk Christmas Eve and felt terrible the day after, so no more booze for me. I doubt I will make it through the year. But my current goal is to just make it for a month. That way, I will have been off of alcohol for a month, and I will revise without a hang over. As soon as my exams are over, I will allow myself to get drunk again. Although not as much as last year.

My other NY’s resolution was to go to the gym and exercise more. I started off well, went to the gym yesterday with my flatmate. We are planning to do this every Saturday. The only annoying thing is that I woke up in pain this morning, it’s been a while since I’ve been to the gym. LOL. I can only hope to improve!

I think I’ve bored you enough now, but I will  hopefully update soon. I am also planning to write more fan fic, but unfortunately that will have to wait till after exams.

Still upset, but....

Right so I am still upset over last week's X Factor result. But, the bright side of the result (i.e. Lucie getting kicked out) is that Lucie is performing in Oceana, Southampton this Friday, and I have tickets. So yay for that because she is simply awesome. And did I mention she is incredibly hot? Here is a pic in case you haven't realised this:


so yes, Friday will be awesome! :D

WTF?!!!!!! right, so this is a complaint post about X Factor.
I just watched the results show and am sooo pissed off with the result! I love Lucie! She's awesome! I don't know if i can bother watching it again now. I CANNOT believe John and Edward were saved by SImon Cowell. After all the complaining he does about them, they are SO annoying. i am angry beyond words.
Ugh, i hate it when reality tv shows don't go the way you want them to!

Only 11 days left...

Add to Memories Share

In 11 days I will go to Uni.
This Friday is my last day at work, I don't think it has quite sunk in yet that I am leaving, until I am not going back anymore. I am quite sad to leave work, it was my very first job. And my colleagues are good friends of mine. But I am so excited and nervous at the same time to start something new in my life! I've lived here and gone to school in this town for over 3 years now. It's only a small country town, and I am so bored here! I am moving to the big city :D
But yeah, I am far from ready. Haven't packed yet, haven't even gotten all of my stuff together yet! Luckily I am off all of next week, so that I can properly get sorted. My dad is coming over from Holland next thursday to help me move all my stuff. I have a lot. A LOT. I didn't realise it, but I think I am going have to throw some of it out because it is just too much to bring with me to Uni.
Anyway, I am very very very excited!!!!!!
Although the student finance people are really getting on my nerves, my loan is still not sorted, and they are taking ages to reply with everything. I just hope it all works out....

I haven't written in a while, mainly because I have had nothing to write about really.
My summer has been very boring! But it will all change soon. (I hope anyway)
I am starting University in 24 days and I am soooo excited about it! I cannot wait to study again, and go to lectures etc etc. At the moment I am just preparing by buying loads of stuff I need. Like cooking things etc. I bought myself a student cookbook, which is supposed to teach me to cook. Which will be interesting as I am not very good (a slight understatement there lol)
Lately, I have been obsessing over Twitter. I love it! I love how you can follow celebs and just pretty much stalk them legally.  Today Kate Walsh (from Private Practice) accepted me which I am very excited about seeing as she only has like 500 followers!
Also, I managed to sort the mess with my email which I am quite pleased about. I just got a new one and had to direct everything to the new one, which took a while but I think it worked. So yes, overall it's been okay. I am back to work now which is good because I was so bored doing nothing! Anyway, that's all for now. I will update when I have more to say.  :)

August 18th, 2009

I am sooo annoyed with myself! UGH. Fuck fuck fuck FUCK!
Right so here's what happened.
Basically my email inbox has decided that I cannot view my emails anymore. Nothing. For the past few days it has been saying: "Inbox unavalaible due to temporary maintenance." Well, it seems it's not so temporary. When I tried to email them to see what is going on, another error come up "this email address does not exist" Great. Just fucking great.
It would not be that bad if I didn't completely depend on it. Especially now that I am about to go to University. So I receive loads of emails on how to enroll and about getting a student ID card etc etc etc. Also, the Student Finance communicate with me through email.
And to top it all of, most of my passwords etc are saved on my email account! So that I would not lose it!
So now, I made a new email address, and tried to change as much of my stuff over to that new one as possible. But I cannot figure out how to get in touch with right department of the university about all that.
This is just fucking great....I think I need to get off my laptop and go for a walk or something to calm down.
What I have now learned, don't ever depend on technology!

I first spotted her getting on the elevator with fellow surgeons. I could not take my eyes of her. She was so beautiful! Her dark hair fell over her shoulders in long waves, her dark eyes looked distant as she chatted easily to a tall, male doctor. She seemed to be trying very hard not to cry, I had to fight the urge to run over and comfort her. I stopped myself and decided to take the stairs.

I was determined to find out who she was. I asked one of my fellow peds surgeons about her at lunch. "Oh you mean Dr. Torres?" she replied, as I pointed her out. Dr. Torres, I sighed.

"Yeah she's friends with Dr. Sloan. I heard her previous lover left her in the parking lot without a word. Dr. Hahn her name was, I think." the surgeon continued.

I nodded absentmindedly, until I realized what she had just said. The surgeon had said 'her name'.

"Wait, did you say Dr. Hahn was a woman?" I asked curiously, trying very hard not to sound too excited.

"Yeah, they were Seattle Grace's first openly gay couple."

So maybe I did stand a chance with this incredibly hot Dr. Torres.

Even though I didn't see her for another week or so, she never left my mind. Every morning I found myself looking for her in the crowd entering the hospital. I was hoping to run into her again.
 

Finally, my patience was rewarded. As I stepped into the elevator, thinking about a tough case I had dealt with today, I looked up and saw her standing in the corner. She met my eyes briefly and smiled the most dazzling smile.From that moment on I knew I liked her. I really liked her. I couldn't stop myself from thinking about her. Carefully I glanced over at her. Her deep, dark eyes. Her beautiful hair. Her blue scrubs fit her body well, and curved in all the right places. I also noticed her long, slim legs.
 

I was glad to see more people enter the now crowded elevator. If it would have been just me and her, I might have pinned her against the wall right there and not taken no for an answer.

Behave Arizona.


She doesn't even know your name.

The next few days went by slowly. Several times I found myself walking around the hospital, trying to 'accidentally' walk into her. I walked past her a few times, I was sure I could feel her skin send electric currents towards mine in that brief moment of almost contact. Surprisingly, just being near her made my heart beat faster and my mind spin.
 

Once again, I had some spare time and decided to check the board of surgeries, maybe I could see her in action. I would not give up. Some day, I would meet her.
