Ma birfday

Tonight I will be celebrating my birthday! Big deal, I hear you think... Uhm, yes, but, eh... I haven't celebrated mine in over five years! There is no use in celebrating your life when you are down and depressed. So I skipped it all together.

But this year I feel like celebrating and it is a pretty big deal to me. Not that I invited that many people, just those who are dear to me. Not that I am doing a lot of cooking or anything; just beer and snacks. But the fact that I feel good enough to have a party is pretty meaningful to me. So... yay for me today!

I will get up and start cleaning and prepping in a minute, but right now I'm lazing in bed with the interwebs :)

Love you all and celebrate life,
Marieke

ps: real b-day is wednesday, but I will have to work the whole day and whole evening. So I rescheduled my day to today :p

Versus

For a long loooong time now I was content in living my life alone. Not needing anybody, doing it myself.

But something changed...

I want someone to call my own and be together. Someone who introduces me as "his" and sound really proud while saying it. I don't WANT to do it on my own anymore. I proved I can. Now it is time to belong with someone and feel safe.

And everything has it's downsides. I will probably regret these words one day. But I don't care. I need to belong..

So, there, dear universe, there is my wish, now make it happen :)

Time flies when you do nothing

Oh, lo and behold!

The Christmas holiday has come and gone! Tomorrow I will have to play the responsible adult again instead of this lazy knitting on the couch watching tv slush that I have been in the past two weeks.

And enjoyed it every step of the wayI have to admit!

Bought a great spring bouquet yesterday, cherryblossom and yellow spring flowers. Put them all in a huge vase. It makes me long for spring even more. Let's just skip the whole rainy winter thing and move right on trough to spring okay? The weather gods are messing up the timing anyway so they can grant me that little wish right?

More music

And this one is playing on ALL the radio stations and I still like it. Not like more crappy songs like bruno mars and his shitty lyrics.
Great video by the way!

Music

A few of my more hiphop orientated students made me listen to this song so I could translate it for them for a project. Halfway trough I fell in love with the girl's voice and the lyrics. I now also love it because it came to me from the most unlikely source. When I told them that, all I got were huge smiles and the remark: "I knew you would like it". Sometimes things are very uncomplicated :)
