Yup, I may as well be the worst person on earth for not keeping my 2-weekly-journal as I promised (does that mean I have to start all over again?)
Anyway, too much has happened since my last post. My summer was just too awesome; I went to Norway to visit my friend E. and it was great to stay with her for 2 weeks! Norway is a great country, I'll post some pictures here (clicky-and-pastey!) >

that church was in Trondheim, a city near where E. lived.

I made this on the first day when it was raining. Doesn't it look neat? =D

That's us (E. and me) walking in the far, faaar distance. Pretty sunset, huh?
Norway is surprisingly warm too, I dressed up way too much. It's pretty much like Holland, although Norway doesn't have days over 25 degrees and Holland does (occassionly...)
Oh, I completed goal #07 (the first day it began raining while E. was showing me around in the forest near her house, see pic 2 above, and I just thought; "fuck it," and we danced and sang in the rain all the way home, hehe.), and goal #30.
After Norway, I did some job-hunting and ended up at HEMA, something like Wallmart in America. At first I had to help out in the little to-go store, where I had to serve sausages and hotdogs and stuff (... they don't know I'm vegetarian), but later on I was moved to the fashion-department in the main store, which is quite more fun but boring at the same time, since when you work too hard to keep yourself entertained, after a while there's nothing left to do, and when you work too little people get mad at you for being slow. It's a lose-lose-situation.
Point is; goal #34 succeed!
Last...
I went to Lowlands. I went to LOWLANDS.
I WENT TO FUCKIN LOWLANDS.
Definitely one of the best experiences of my life, and my first real festival too (I've been to one-day-festivals too, but this one was 3 days of epic awesomeness).
I've seen to many musicians and artists, let's see if I can sum them all up: Arctic Monkeys, The Crookers, The Klaxons, White Lies, Paolo Nutini, Lily allen, The Blackout, The Prodigy, Moke, Bring me the Horizon, Destine, Kyteman, Kaiser Chiefs, Basement Jaxx, Enter Shikari, Vampire Weekend, The Whitest Boy Alive, Metric, Bloc Party, Arctic Monkeys, Boys Noize, Benga...
Maybe more, but I can't remember.
I went with my two friends N. and H. , and together we shared one tent that had about a perimeter of 6 metres or something. It was a personal little hell. But nevermind, we spent like 8 hours in total there, since we hardly catched any sleep.
I only had my Allstars and flip-flops on me, so around day two my feet hurted like hell. Oh, the three of us got a bad stomach-ache after we boiled up some done-in-a-sec-soup that was utterly delicious. Nah, okay, not really.
Aaaanyway, I can't else say but that Lowlands was the best, and I'll definitely go next year too!
One small (not exactly) detail: I met my current boyfriend there. Another *BIG* plus of going to Lowlands. But yeah, I'm pretty happy. What am I saying? I am frickin EXSTATIC. It's been quite a while since I could allow myself to fully fall for someone again, I'm quite shy and anxious about stuff like that.
Ah, before I forget: goal #17 succeed too!
So, that's the update for today! I'll post some moar stuff soon!
Blog on~!

First three goals succeeded!
Yatta! I finished goal #09, #99 and #100!
Today I went to Amsterdamse Bos with my classmates, and we had a picknick and went pedal-boarding afterwards. (I'm sunburnt though. it HURTS.)
It was the (un)official last day of school, so me and my friend were all excited and child-like. We also made lots of pictures. I'll post some.
^ E. and me actually run though a grass-field on bare feet, and GOD, did it feel great ^_^
Finally summer is here!!!
Hmm, don't you hate it how you wait for something, and when it's finally there, it doesn't feel as great anymore? I really don't know how I should fill in my 7 weeks of total freedom.
I'm going to Norway though, which is going to be awesome. And I'll go look for a job tomorrow. I'm totally, utterly broke for life.
Blog you soon~! or something...
