I'd like to share a song with you. It's one of my favourites and every time I'm sad, I listen to this and afterwards, I'm happy again It is called 'Who you are', sung and written by Jessie J. You can watch it on Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2WWrupMBAE) and here are the lyrics.
I stare at my reflection in the mirror... Why am I doing this to myself? Losing my mind on a tiny error, I nearly left the real me on the shelf ... "no,no, no, no..."
Don't lose who you are, in the blur of the stars Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing, It's okay not to be okay... Sometimes it's hard, to follow your heart. Tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising, Just be true to who you are (Who you are)x11
Brushing my hair, do I look perfect? I forgot what to do to fit the mould , yeah! The more I try the less it's working yeah yeah yeah Cause everything inside me screams, "no,no,no,no..."
Don't lose who you are, in the blur of the stars! Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing, It's okay not to be okay
Sometimes it's hard, to follow your heart. But tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising, There's nothing wrong with who you are!
Yes, no, egos Fake shows like woah Just go, and leave me alone Real talk real life Good love goodnight With a smile that's my home That's my home
Don't lose who you are, in the blur of the stars Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing, It's okay not to be okay Sometimes it's hard, to follow your heart. Tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising, Just be true to who you are Who you are
The sentences in bold are my favourites because to me, there are so true! You don't have to be always perfect and happy and enthousiastic! You cannot always be strong otherwise, you're fake. So let those emotions come out! Talk to people! If you don't want to talk, write a letter or an e-mail!
Do it! Please!
And if someone laughes at you because you're crying, your appearence or if you're gay/straight, tiny/fat, white/black, smart/dumb, ... let that person laugh! He/she isn't worth your regard, your heart, your life. So pull yourself together and handle that shit!
That's what I wanted to say

P.S. I'm sorry, my English isn't perfect, neither am I.
You know it or you don't... but I'm really into quotes/sayings/... I just love them! They're great because sometimes, there's so much wisdom in it and you can really pull you up on some quotes so I'd like to share some with you.
* Don't cry because it is over, smile because it has happened - Dr. Seuss
* A room without books is like a body without soul - Cicero This is so true!
* Carpe diem - Horatius It means something like: Enjoy life!
* Teachers asked me what I wanted to be in life. I answered: "Happy". They said I didn't understand the question. I replied they didn't understand life. - Bob Marley
* A day without laughter is a day wasted. - Charlie Chaplin Every day I didn't laugh, I feel wasted because I'm keen on laughing! ;D It's the most precious feeling - beside love - on earth so we have to make sure we smile every day!
* Rise and rise again, untill lambs become lions. MY FAVOURITE ! <3 from the movie: Robin Hood (starring Russell Crowe). It's about courage and not to give up and I pull myself up on that quote. I'm in love with it, I'm serious!
If you've got another quote, don't hesitate to say it! :) Love, S.
I don't have much time these days to read another book than a school book or some titles on the Internet but I'd like to recommend you a serie of books that I'm seriously addicted to. It's called House of Night and (first) it's about a girl, Zoey, (later in the serie, you see that there are differents points of view - i.a. her best friend, Stevie Rae etc) who has been Marked and she has to move to the Tulsa House of Night. It's a school for fledging vampires who has to become "mature" vampires. There's a lot of trouble (e.g. Dark Forces, killings and some boyfriend troubles) but there's hope.
So, if you want to know more about them (and I hope you will), go to Waterstone's or Sterling (two bookshops in the heart of Brussel) and buy the first novel: Marked! Or borrow it from me... I've got the whole serie.. Almost :D
I love this serie x)
See you later! Sarahaha :D (no that isn't my real name..)
Christmas holiday is over and I hate it. I haven't done anything special - I didn't have enough time to do something special, actually... I just went shopping (3 times, hihi), read a lot of books (i.a. Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James) and slept every now and then. (I'm still tired, you know ;O). One of my intentions was to look the serie Glee (to start with season 1) and to see The Lord of the Rings but I've never done it. Shame on me!
I want to take a closer look to Fifty Shades... It's an erotic novel but to me, it's so boring! The only thing they do is chatting and having sex.. Yeah, that's why they call it an EROTIC book but I expected a little more about it... So actually, I'm disappointed in Mss/Mrs. James.
One last thing I want to say (/to wish) - a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year full of luck, courage, wisdom, fun, love and friendship!
