Double trouble?!

2010-07-21T23:51:00.001+08:00

As adviced, I want to write some things out of my head..

One of the most visual memories of my childhood was that I wasn't able to shower after P.E. but my mom couldn't write me a letter (because her Dutch isn't that good..) for school and at that time I didn't knew myself how to write shower in Dutch (douchen) so I asked my sister if she would be so kind to write it for me. And all she could scream at me was "why the hell should i write it for you, fuck off and write it yourself". So at the end of the day, ofcourse no letter and I had to shower after all..

This is a clear summary how my relation was with my sister and myself when we're younger. To be honest, I don't have a lot of memories of us together, because most of the time we just weren't together. In Dutch we have a saying "a apple doesnt fall far from its tree" but it seems that we're apple and pear. Im not sure what caused this difference, when we're younger I just kinda liked my own company. I'd hang out alot with my mom and dad, because yeah they kind awesome. But I never really hanged out with her..

When we grew older, she moved out of our parental house rather fast and I'd stayed with my parents. I sometimes feel that I had to, somebody have to help them with their administration and everything they didn't understand. It felt like my duty, because she wasn't there anymore to help out.

So she never really was my rolemodel to start with. I went to high-school, she chilled hardcore. I went to university she still chilled out. Somewhere along the road, our roles changed. I challenged myself to go to the fullest, she well.. she didnt.. And with pain in my heart I was only a witness of her life. I'm sure she isn't living the life she was expected to, but she is progressing I guess. She's almost 30, and I had so much more in mind for her. Like she says she isn't living her life for me, but all the expectations I ever had, where for her. And only for her, because why wouldn't you want the best for your own sibbling?

Everything I do, is because I don't want to end up like her.. Because I do want to achieve everything and then some.. Because I'm afraid, that when I'll look back I'll regret too much.. Because life is just too short to live one you don't like...

It's a sad story in the end, but I always have the feeling that time will learn and that even with time everything will land on its feets..

Focus

2010-07-21T03:24:00.000+08:00

Do you ever have the feeling that life has something special for you, that you were meant for something bigger, that it is a fact rather then an opinion that you will make it in life?

Almost without shame, I can tell you that this comes to my mind almost everyday. Why would you be satisfied with ANYTHING less than the MOST you can achieve? Why would you be satisfied with the life you have now, while you can work harder to reach further, to achieve more.. At the same time I have to admit that this wasn't always the case for me. A couple of years, perhaps no more than two, I was walking trough life without a goal. I was having ideas in my mind about what I wanted from life, but things just didn't worked out the way I wanted it to. I was wining and complaining, not in public or something - just inside my mind, why didn't the international ambition that I had (and have) represent my actual life?

But then it just struck me in the face, it has no friggin use to just focuss your mind on all the things you don't have. Nothing is gonna change by it. The only thing you should take out from it, is WHAT DO YOU WANT? Towards what goal do you wanna work, and with work I mean work hard. If you wanna get eveyrthing out of life you have to chase opportunities, they won't just ring the door and present themself! People won't notice you, when you're just sitting on the beach wasting money on stupidity and complaining about your life. When you're out in the world, life itself combined with ambition and perseverance then and ONLY then, opportunities will come down into your life like rain onto Dutch surface..

At this moment in life, I'm so focused. I have to admit, then almost every day I picture another future for myself, but I'm focused because I know, one day, one day ahead a special thing will arise in my life just because I worked my ass off for it because I want to make something awesome with my life. e

Your life start with everything between your own ears. You have so much controll on your own life so just stop complaining if your life isn't working out at the moment, DO something about it..

Negative people..

2010-06-26T03:34:00.000+08:00

Everybody knows this person who is ALWAYS negative.. And most people just try to avoid those people, because all the actually do is suck out your energy and what do you get back? Nothing.. But what to do when avoiding is not an option because they are related or an attachment to somebody who is a nice, bubbly and positive?

Im not trying to say that Im little miss sunshine 24/7. But there is an Dutch saying which states "you'll catch more with honey than with vinegar". Ill try to treat everybody the same manner I would like to be treat. I life by the idea that a smile is for free and negative leads to nothing (well mots probably to more negativity) while being positive provides you with so much more!!

I'm always astonished by those people who really believe in the idea that when they need somebody's service or time, it will be helpfull to scream at them to get them to do want you want. Would you do that to? Most employees have enough power to actually refuse helping you just on the idea that they don't like you but that also means that they WILL help you when you just put that extra smile on your face, wish them a great day at work and compliment them on their provided service. You would like to be treat the same right?!

But so what to do with those people who you cant just eliminate? Are you expected to put on your happy face even when you know beforehand you will get a shitty reaction anyway? Do you convince them with your life philosophy? Or will you in the end, consequently say,untill here and no further..

May time learn me the answer on this one!!

And yes Lady Gaga is a devilworshipper...

2010-06-13T19:25:00.000+08:00

My last blog about the subject (What the hell? Jay-Z a devil worshipper?!?!?! ) keeps being read, so I guess there are more out there whom are curious towards the subject.

After watching Lady Gaga's latest video Alejandro I really asked myself, is it me, or does everybody think that this video is highly inappropriate? Though, I really believe that Gaga is a visioner pur sang, but whatsup with all the blasphemy?!?!

Okay first things first, I always tend to wanna write down everything that comes up to mind, which often make my blogs very ramble.. I shall try to make this one a bit more structured (if possible).. And I shall try to narrow it down to only Gaga's

Gaga: whatup with the covering your eye? Is it sore? Do you see better while covering one up? Or might it be more a one-eye-of-horus thing?? To follow up: Christina Aguilera, you're kinda epic. Been in the industry for a while, seems forever, WHY THE HELL are you copy+pasting lady gaga? Did you made a deal aswell to remain your succes? Because the C around your eye is REALLY kinda obvious.. I meand, you could have done it in front of your mouth/nose/boob.. Why are you doing it the exact same manner as Gaga?

Back to Gaga, whatsup with the upside down cross on your cross aka pussy? Well it's kinda whats up with the WHOLE alejandro video? Its about a boy right? Whats with the hitler kind of army? There is some hot studd looking hawt but well is he alejandro? Is he there to save you frmo the devil, the whole clip just DOESNT make sense to me at all? Why is it sooo dripped into religiousness.. And with religious I do not mean jesus christ super star.. I mean Lucifer, aka Jay-Z's pall..
There's more.. Whatsup with the muppets strings? They always say that the Devil uses people as muppets to fulfill his assignments, well kinda obvious as well Gaga. Is it some kinda of metaphor for being mind controlled?? Whatsup with the coffin? Is it burrying the "old-sacret" you, and here you are new mind controlled super power gaga?
It is all so obvious, even for the naked eye (is that a term in English, well it is in Dutch ahaha), that it makes me think Gaga, are you doing this just to provoke or are you doing this as a real tribute to the black force? Is alejandro just a synonym for Lucifer? Especially when you sing "Stop, please let me go" in a nun outfit, makes me really wonder are you a prisonner of the evil, do you wanna set free to the light, but you're to hooked up to the fame?

What do you think about it? I think that EVERY ONE who have seen the clip have to admit that it is kinda disturbing (especially the sufficating sex part..), and that you at least wonder who ROBERTO is.. Kinda weird to sing about a guy calles Alejandro and all of a sudden trow another name in the game..

There are even some youtube video's where some artist discuss/explain a bit more about the industry (most of them are so-called "has-been", but are they really? or does a 'higher' power has something to say about that BECAUSE they opened up?!). It is hard to make a difference between: are they really talking about the Devil an sich or are they using the devil as a metaphor to emphasize their point?

Dear readers,

I really should post some more when I killed all my exams..
But for now some links of my new favorite sites!

http://www.deargirlsaboveme.com/
Some random dude who lives below 2 loud girls, whom he secretely has a crush on.. He write little letters/tweets to them and they hella funny!

http://notalwaysright.com/
As non-americain, you always have sum preconceived opinion about americains (they are fat, stupid, etc. ahaha Im sorry when you feel violated, they are preconveived opinions after all..), this site gives funny anekdotes about employees and interaction with either angry or just plain ass stupid customers..

http://colormekatie.blogspot.com/
Katie is probably the cutest/prettiest/sweetest little thing I have ever seen on blogspot! She is probably the most positive girl in NY and makes pretty pictures/crafts about her life.. Do you remember my blog about those people who went on the subway without a pants? Well, Katie belongs to that organisation! Cutest thing!

http://fashionhippieloves.blogspot.com/
Annie's blog really made me wish I paid a bit more attention during German class. I think she has one of the best fashion blogs without using high-end pieces. Most of her wardrobe even comes from Primark, Zara and H&M!! But she really knows how to pull it off and she has great legs.

Last but certainly not least
http://www.life-in-travel.blogspot.com/
A beautifull woman, with 2 beautiful kids and the best? A beautifull designer wardrobe!!!

Wait, wait, wait a little longer..

2010-04-07T23:32:00.000+08:00

The real world is hitting me in the face!! Have to admit the whole blogging thing is really getting a non-substantional role in the universe of Janet.. And I honestly don't understand how people blog while living their life.. I mean, it's either to party or to blog about parties..

But don't get me wrong I LOVE blogs and the people who write them.. But I just seem not to be able to combine living my life and blog about it.. At least at this point..

I have to learn French, I have to teach (2nd year undergrad students), I have to study for my last 2 exams, I have to finish my internship paper, I have to plan a professor of the year award, I have to work a bit, and ofcourse I have to enjoy the good life!

So where's time left for blogging?? I tried to make pictures of my outfit of the day, but I really don't understand who makes the pictures of all those girls blogging.. Like ont he street, on the beach etc. Because Most of the time, when Im bored like that, nobody's around me to make pictures of me like that :(

AND to top it all up. I DONT HAVE A BLACKBERRY anymore :( It kinda died on me and now I have to wait for 14 workingdays (that's more or less a month...) before it's fixed.. I really hope tho that theyll give me a brand new one.. And I miss internet on my phone!! That was theonly manner how I checked up with all your blogs!! *sigh*

So for now.. Just wait...

So 100 g sugar, 60 gr brown sugaer, syrup, butter and salt further we aknowledged that it was a horrible idea, it didnt tast too bad, but it just wasnt the real deal.. cant wait for the next carnival where you can just by them!!

Favorite Things

2010-03-15T20:38:00.001+08:00

I've been such a bad blogger.. Im really making an effort to finish my internship report (well kinda at least..) and then the whole blogging thing just don't seem as important anymore.. BUT here are my new favorite things of the month March!!

Lipstick: Chanel Rouge Coco - Gabrielle (19)

Spotted gorgeous Jen Brill with it on like every picture made of her.. So i knew i have to give it a try.. AND I ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY LOVE IT

J's Bin 23 collection: All numbered Air Jordan models (I – XXIII) will be remade in exclusive and luxurious makeovers. First to see release will be the Air Jordan II Premio.

Paying tribute to the fine craftsmanship of the original AJ II, the kicks will be constructed from rich and supple brown leather with crocodile detailing. Each pair comes individually numbered in extremely limited quantities and will carry the Bin 23 seal in red.

Canon S90: like every dslr owner (i guess..) i find it not always as easy to transport.. therefor bought a new compact camera and TOTALLY adore is too.. makes amazeballs pictures and is easy in use!

Helena Rubinstein Deodorant Nudit: absolute favorite for many many years already (and many many years to come..) great smell (the deo not the sweat..)!

Guess that's about it for now, will post more regularly (ehh..)

Last Lecture

2010-03-09T18:28:00.001+08:00

So as you might know, Im back in town.. First week of Dutch life was really good, no rain (yet), a lot of sunshine (but still with some freezing cold air), a lot of interviews (gotta work to get where I want), and ofcourse a lot of loved ones!

But you're not here to read about how cold it is (as you probably know for yourself..) you're here to read smt interesting..

During my 10 something hours flight back to NL, I had to switch airplanes in Kuala Lumpur. During this 3 hour break I started reading possibly one of the best books Ill ever read.. I wanted to cry even after just have read one page. It was the LAST LECTURE by Randy Pausch. You may have heard from him, his wife visited Oprah to tell his story..

Let me search for a summary:

“We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand.”

--Randy Pausch

A lot of professors give talks titled “The Last Lecture.” Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them. And while they speak, audiences can’t help but mull the same question: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy?

When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn’t have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave—“Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams”—wasn’t about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because “time is all you have…and you may find one day that you have less than you think”). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living.

In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humor, inspiration and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.

So this book was a last gift Randy wrote for his children, to tell them more about himself (they were to young to have real significant memories about him), how he lived his life and his life advice. The actual story was in a lecture and I added it as a youtube, since I am at the university and we don't have sound here I haven't watch it either! I know it will be a tearweeper.. But this man, the know-it-all that he was, was such a out of the ordinairy man! I don't even know if I should write more about it are that you just should buy/rent the book and read it for yourself. It really will add some spiritual value to your life! About how to appreciate time, because it is limited.. About appreciating your loved ones, because they aren't immortal. About letting go the small stuff, because a dirty sock isnt worth a fight.. About your life, because you can always improve yourself and your environment!

The Big Adventure

2010-03-04T19:35:00.004+08:00

Sittin here with only a couple of days left of "the big adventure" I feel bipolar! I am soo looking forward going back to my normal life: study, being with my loved ones, eating at Vapiano, just being around all my stuff (kinda fed up wearing the same shit for 6 months..), being able to wear different shoes, my own bed, don't have to worry about roaming with my bb, there's so much.. But really at the same time I know that I will feel fed up and bored of it al so fast!! I guess you need those moments too..

Being in a foreign country for longer then just a holidy does so much with a girl. You learn soooo insane much about your own capabilities (and perhaps stretch up your limitations), you'll learn so much about "the big scary world", you'll get to know new inspiring people, and mostly you'll learn it's oke to be on your own and enjoy your own company. There's nothing wrong with being alone for a bit!

In the last couple of months I have been to Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and Thailand and every place I've been to showed me how beautifull this place we call earth is! Except for appreciate everything in my life more then I did (the struggle my parents must have been through for the promiss of a better future in the Netherlands, the wealth I know because there are alot of people way more poor then you even can imagine, the weather i LOVE for seasons) I know I'll walk away from this experience as a better human.

But I cant wait for a new adventure landing on my path! North-America perhaps? So what are your plans, which places do you want to visit? Or even deeper; what do you want out of life?

why is it always that you want what you can't have.. its always 'i want bruin brood met oude kaas' but the moment you set foot on your old habitat you'll gonna wish you where some place new, exciting, meeting new people, cultures. even whishing back for the moments you missed home. coz in those moments you'll learn the most about life, true friendship and yourself...

What do you wanna be?

2010-02-07T23:55:00.002+08:00

I guess most girls play with barbies and have dreams about fairy weddings and tea parties with their stuffed friends.. I never did this. Cut all the hair off the one barbie I owned and rather hang out with the guys playing the kid version of le parcour (when I wasnt entertaining myself, kinda was a hero in that).

I also never thought of myself of being someones mom someday to be honest. I have the littlest amount of patience with kids. My mom always bought me these hamsters so I'd stuff to do (she ended up cleaning it most of the time) but they all had a tragicall end: one was eaten by my neighbours dog, another buy it brother, one broke its leg in the fuzzy cotton bed I made for him and I totally shaked one untill it was dizzy because I couldnt handle the sound of the tredmill (note I was 6 at the time). What will prevent me from shaking a totler because it won't stop crying?

I dont know but I honestly not see kids as a necesairy good for my future.. Soms gawls already know how they gonna name them. Instead I already know how to name my future dog and 2 cats (not gonna tell, dont wanna jinx). I really think that you have to be in a certain phase in life (worked enough to stay home and take care, enough space and money etc) before you can take responsibilty of those cute little popsicles and maybe you as reader think hey thats the same phase for when you're ready to have kids. But its just not. The whole have kids stay home and live a boring life just makes me wanna go to a shelter buy a cat have some booz and party the night away. Dont get me wrong tho, this is no essay of me screaming into the world wide web that Ill never have kids, its more a "where-are-you-in-life" statement.

And probably in a couple of years Ill find this blog and just laugh because how small- and simpel minded I was when I was 22. But thats life, it would be a shitty place when you just think back and say "godamit, i was friggin genius back then already and not changed/learned a bit"

2010-02-07T23:54:00.000+08:00

Een van het grootste verschil tussen Singapore/Hong Kong/Azie en Nederland is dat men in Nederland veel meer een "kan-niet" cultuur heeft. Hoe associaal, inconsiderate en ignorant chinezen zijn, alles kan als je maar betaald.

Wil je ergens tussen 2 haltes uitstappen, prima je hebt toch voor de hele rit betaald. Terwijl een buschauffeur in Nederland hooguit zou zeggen nee sorry, staat in de protocolen dat ik dat niet mag doen.

Wil je een omelet zonder eigeel? Wederom hier in Azie vinden ze dat prima je hebt toch betaald voor een heel ei. Maar om de een of andere bizarre manier zijn de chefs in NL daar nooit toe bereid. Verkopen ze in NL een broodje salami en een broodje kaas en vraag je dan om een broodje salami én kaas dan krijg je zowiezo een "dat verkopen we niet".

In Nederland zijn verkopers zich veeeeel minder bewust dat elke klant inkomen is. Hier werken veel salesforces op basis van commissie, wat erop neer komt dat als jij make-up koopt de verkopers veeeel aardiger zijn (tegen over het kapsones gedrag bij ici paris xl) omdat ze weten dat het geld wat in jouw portomonee zit hun geld kan worden, zodat ze weer een familie kunnen voeden.

Hier zullen ze ook niet zo snel zeggen de winkel is dicht terwijl ze in NL al om 17.45 aan het opruimen zijn. Die ene laatste klant kan namelijk toch nog een hoop geld opleveren.

Nederland zou iets meer van het kapitalisme moeten afstappen en het meer van de profit terug laten vloeien naar het personeel. Verkopers zouden hun kapsones en arrogantie thuis moeten laten, want laten we eerlijk zijn: je verdient het minimum inkomen dus je hebt echt 0 reden om te denken dat je superieur bent.

Lets change it to a can-do country and I be willing to invest in our economy xD

sure life is still helluva fun.. but i guess the parents were right.. everything gets more complex when your getting old.. 'what do you wanna be when you grow up' is sooo much harder to answer if you cant say dolpin trainer or walking on the moon anymore.. but hey, at least everything still seems to be better at night!

Gratis drankjes voor grote borsten in Singapore

AMSTERDAM – In de Singaporese bar OverEasy kan het uitgaan erg goedkoop zijn, althans voor vrouwen. Het aantal gratis drankjes dat er weggegeven wordt staat namelijk in directe relatie tot haar cupmaat.

AsiaOne meldt dinsdag dat de omvang van de boezem gelijk staat aan het aantal drankjes dat de dame in kwestie krijgt van OverEasy.

Zo krijgt een A-cup één gratis drankje, een B-cup twee en een C-cup drie. Voor het stevigere werk is echter een vrouw met minimaal een D-cup nodig: zij krijgt namelijk een hele fles wodka.

Aanleiding
De actie werd bedacht na aanleiding van het evenement Fill My Cups waarvoor DJ Dcup van stal gehaald werd. "Het was echt naar aanleiding van de naam van de DJ”, zegt een woordvoerster van de club. “Toen we hoorden dat het Dcup zou worden, wilden we daar een eigen draai aan geven.”

Of de DJ het initiatief warm onthaalt is niet bekend gemaakt, maar wel is duidelijk dat vrouwen er niet onverdeeld positief over zijn.

Sommigen vinden het volgens AsiaOne enkel een nieuwe marketingstrategie, anderen hebben al aangegeven dat ze er zeker niet aan mee zullen doen. Bovendien gaan geluiden op dat door dit soort initiatieven de veiligheid van aanwezige vrouwen niet langer gegarandeerd kan worden.

Metingen
De woordvoerster voegt er dan ook onmiddellijk aan toe dat alle metingen, aangaande de borsten, op puur visuele basis zullen plaatsvinden en dat aanrakingen niet geduld worden. Voor de taak zijn dan ook speciaal twee onafhankelijke juryleden aangetrokken.

“Ons standpunt is dat het allemaal om plezier gaat, het is niet ordinair en heeft niets met seksisme te maken," aldus de zegsvrouwe. “Geen van de meisjes gaat aangeraakt worden en ze hoeven niets van zichzelf bloot te geven. En ja, we zijn al gewaarschuwd dat veel rondborstige meisjes onze kant op komen."

Nails of The Day

2010-01-16T00:28:00.000+08:00

Thank god for stable internet connections, so say hello again to fairly odd (useless) blogs!! Here is my nail do for the day! Since Im in Hong Kong nowadays (or at least some village in Hong Kong, I believe it is calles Sha Tau Kok..) and Im soooo close to the border with China. Mommy and I decided to go to some spa, mom did a foot massage and I did a facial. During the facial they also did my nails: TADAAA.. Aren't they pretty! (pay notion to the absence of the questionmark because my nails are helluva awesome!)

Mom also did a mani+pedi and decided hat her nails deserved the colour ‘mad as a hatter’ from the Alice in Wonderland O.P.I. line. LOVE LOVE LOVE that colour (and line) so just bought all of them for my big sis who’s still back home.

Well I have some Gossip Girl catch up to do (www.watch-series.com, thanx sierd!).

Imagine: countdown on a crazy beautifull beach filled with malaysian rastafari's, malaysian youngsters and ofcourse some caucasians-turned-into-lobsters! Tiger beer in one hand, boyfriend in the other one. 9 - 8 - ... - 3 - 2 - 1 HAPPY NEW YEAR! People lighting up wish balloons, count down never had been this relax!!

It's a crazy feeling, to be on a wonderful beach, its 35 degrees but all my loved ones (minus bf, coz he's with me haha) frees there ass off in a minus something something environment.. But hee, like Oprah says you have to live in the moment! So I did..

My first day of 2010 was like how I would like to have every day of 2010! It started with a donut breakfast and a cup of hot tea (yeah want this everyday!), followed by some treasured hours on the beach doing sum tanning, sum jetski-ing, sum drinking fresh coconut, sum reading (super freakanomics), sum walking. Followed by some amazing foot and body massage.. Followed by some crazy delicious seafood..

Life is so good! I will post some vids-and-pics when I have sum spare time from all this awesomeness ;)

For now, I have to put on some after-sun because yes Im also a lobster..

Santa was also quite generous towards me! I received such precious gifts! Everybody who knows me, knows how much I love silver bracelets. Especially when people who are in my heart give them to me. Not because I only love presents (which I do.. but thats not the point), I love wearing bracelets with a story!! I have a lot of bangles bracelets and every bead is special for me, because they where given with a special reason!!

And my precious friend Stephanie gave me an awesome Pandora bracelet with a couple of beads (including a CUPCAKE <3!!!!!) It's like thet bracelet below!

Well ofcourse xmas isnt all about gifts and presents. I cherrish the moments the most, christmass eve started kinda shitty.. But ended witth a 300 dollar bottle of champagne, twilight and friends.. And thats what counts the most!!

Hope you all had a great time too and we'll keep in touch ;)

Mystery Seeker

2009-12-21T14:59:00.002+08:00

Well, as you might know, Im always in for a good internet-based fun.. Now I found this Google website of and its AMAZEBALLS!

So when you have WAY too much spare time, for example being an intern, you should go to mysterygoogle You run a search for something, and instead of getting the Google search answer for the keywords you just typed in, you actually get the results of some /previous/ query that somebody did. It gives you an answer to questions such as 'what is the purpose of life' till little missions as 'send coockies to' Aahha even if you put in 'what is this' it will answer with a 'this is mystery google' or when you put in 'hallo' it will say 'hi' back.. And if you put in 'poop' it will say its not a toilet..

Ahaha and bored as I was I asked what shall I do and it linked me to the wikipedia website of the The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.. So that will what Im doing the next 10 minutes ;)

AHAHAHAHAH OMG you could wipe me off the floor now. I typed in 'end of the world' (all 2012-ish) and it linked me to Ten Reasons to Hate France kinda love the country tho but thats still hella funny!

Sleep-over

2009-12-21T12:14:00.001+08:00

source: getsnuggie

Everybody who has been on one of my sleepovers (they are epic, usually have a duration of 3 days and always involves a lot of food!) know I totally LOVE sleeping.. Back home, Im kinda doing everything in my bed (thats what she said..), eating (I know its kinda gross but also sooo comfy), studying, gaming, etc..

In the US there has been a crazy 'trend' going on.. With the Snuggie.. Its like the uggliest thing EVER, but i want one!! It looks sooooooooo comfy and you will be like a kermit without the pig following you..

Santa, can you please keep me warm?

xoxo

All you need is...

2009-12-21T11:46:00.002+08:00

one daddy that eats all the things you don't like
one mommy that likes the wine a bit too much.. (she's hella fun tho..)
one sister that protects you

You don't need the material stuff (except, ofcourse, the SpongeBob helmet), you don't need the rich guy, you don't need all the fancyness...

You can strip off everything and in the end all that matters is family.. Everybody family has it own peculiarities, our family for sure have them (too). But you have to embrace it. Because when everything is gone, they are still there.. Mommy and daddy will still holding hands, you will still have silly arguments with your sibbling, daddy still makes funny grammar errors, mommy will still feed you crazy stuff. But they are there and that's what count..

xoxo

OHH MY EFFING YES PLEASE!!!

2009-12-21T11:31:00.002+08:00

OHH MY GOD!!! I really want to wear this helmet on a daily base even without actually owning a scooter.. In celebration of Spongebob Squarepants’ 10th anniversary, Nickelodeon has teamed up with luxury helmet maker Les Ateliers Ruby to release a special version of the Pavillon model. It looks AMAZABELLS!! Daddy, me wannaaa!! And honestly, what's 800 euro's compared to a happy child?!

Last week of being the intern..

2009-12-21T11:22:00.003+08:00

Pff.. This week feels soooooooo bittersweet! Im crazy looking forward to start traveling through South East Asia.. See my manfriend, mommy, sis and daddy again. To sleep in whenever I want to.. To do whatever I want to. To be in charge of my life again (instead of being led by the 9 till 6 bureaucracy)...

But it also means that this will be the last 'normal' week of living in Singapore.. It means saying goodbye to all those funloving people I've met overhere.. Saying goodbye to the life I've known for the last 3 months..

It feels a bit overwhelming.. But I have soo many great prospect for the next couple of months. Going to Hong Kong, catch up with some family over there.. Celebrating the holidays in another country.. Going to bounty islands.. Disney land with my mommy.. Get my sister travelcrazy in 2 weeks/4 countries.. There's soo much good stuff coming up for the first months of twenty ten..

My life's sweet..

xoxo

ps. it also means no more being 8 hours behind a computer.. so I guess all the no-added-value-of-updating-about-my-life blogs will be no longer after thursday 24 December..

The cat is effing awesome

2009-12-19T13:06:00.004+08:00

This cat is friggin awesome!! She'ss waiting for me after work like every day.. She is HELLA smart for a cat.. Know exactly what she's allowed to do and what not.. I wish I could bring her home.. She has only one eye because a crazy bird (the birds are LOONY in singpore) poked it out :( She often puts her head true the jailbardoor (thats normal in Asia I guess..) so she can visit me... I want a one eyed half tailed cat mommy!

Epic Pharrell interview

2009-12-18T16:23:00.001+08:00

This interview is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO epic. Pharrell was like BLOWN away by Nardwuar the human serviette (ahaha Im not making this one up..). Guy is SOOO thorough with his research cant imagine how much time it cost him to accumulate all the info! All Pharrell could do was like ehhh ehhh ehh..

Gotta love Pharrell

Voor als je je HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL erg verveelt

2009-12-17T18:04:00.000+08:00

Voor als je ECHT ECHT niets beters te doen hebt tijdens je werk/stage/sog.. Mijn blog van ehh toen 18 was.. Ja ja, ook in 2005/2006 hield ik een blog bij.. En to be honest, I didnt change a lot.. Of misschien was ik op mijn 18e al MAJOR volwassen ahaha..

Om mezelf maar even te quoten:

En het enige waar me over verwonder is momenteel eigenlijk.. Hoeveel er verandert in 1 jaar, 365 dagen.. Ik heb echt een miljoen (oké, eigenlijk zijn ze op 1 hand te tellen) vrienden losgelaten.. Maar ben ook zoveel naar andere toegegroeid.. Soms mis ik ze, maar meestal is het nog altijd zo logisch dat we elkaar hebben laten gaan.. [...] Denken over het verleden.. Must ? of just dont.. Kweet het niet.. Moet je het overzien om verder te kunnen.. Of vorige week gwon achter je laten? (vorige week was best gaar overigens... wil die best gwon vergeten..) Toekomst.. Ouder worden.. Voor je het weet ben je 22 (voor de trouwe lezer )

Mensen van boven de 22 zijn zo naar Ze rijden auto's.. Ze hebben verantwoordelijkheden.. Ze hebben alleen nog maar feestjes waar ook een kindercreche aanwezig is.. Vaak beginnen ze dik te worden.. Hebben relaties die ergens op moeten uitlopen (zal hij de vader van mijn kinderen zijn..)

AHAHAHAH fokking hell, Im almost killing myself now... Have to admit, the fat part is kinda true..

Iedereen op de wereld houdt het meest van ze mams (als je nu nee zegt lieg je..) zo ook ik.. Mijn mams.. Ze is zo mal als een deurpost.. Maar wat een topwijf.. Ze dwingt me rijst te eten soms.. Omdat ze dat grappig vind. Soms zegt ze dingen om me te pesten..
Mamma.. Mijn mams houdt van winkelen.. Voor mij welteverstaan.. Ze wordt er blij van als ik blij ben.. Wie wilt nou niet zo'n topmams! Mijn mams houdt stiekem het meest avn mijn paps.. Als ik niet kijk houden ze elkaars handen vast.. Tering.. Ze sluiten mij altijd buiten.. (No Janet, You're not allowd in our bubble)
Mijn mammie.. Ik houd van mijn mammiee. Iedereen houdt van zijn eigen mammiee. Maar de mijne is de leypste

Shit is hella funny.. Tenminste als je me ook echt kent.. Moet zeggen dat ik toen wel een stuk pessimistischer in het leven stond als ik nu sta.. Maar ach wat wil je, ik kwam als een groentje om de hoek kijken en was doodziek (letterlijk.. al kwam ik daar vrij laat achter.. pfeiffer is the shit homie) en wist niet wat ik met me leven aan moest..

Hmm.. Maar weet ik dat nu wel...

xoxo

You can just pick me off the floor, coz im ROFL

Asian girls...

2009-12-17T16:24:00.001+08:00

Ahahaha, this is kinda the epiphany of EVERYTHING I dont like about Asians girls:

They actually think its cool to be a race car model and they even pretent it's hard.. 'You might fall..'
They have these crazy photo posses, cant you just stand still and only smile? the hand jobs aren't neccesary!!! http://asianposes.com/
Only 1% of the population has a 'well-developed' body
They giggle like it's breathing.. There's nothing wrong with not put up the fake innocent show..

A Bathing Ape

2009-12-16T17:28:00.001+08:00

Ook al voel ik BAPE echt TOTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL niet.. Het is wel een mention waard hier..

December 19th marks the official opening of the store, which will be situated at Mandarin Gallery, Orchard Road’s latest mall. As usual with A Bathing Ape, a shop opening or special occasion is never complete without an accompanying product launch.

To commemorate the store’s opening, they’ve plastered the Merlion (a mythical mermaid/lion creature that is a national symbol in Singapore) on to an extremely limited T-Shirt that will only be available in Singapore. Apart from that, a batch of the recent collab tees with Chrome Hearts will be made available.

The tees will go on sale at 11am on December 19th, with each customer only allowed to purchase either one opening tee (priced at SGD129) or one Chrome Hearts tee (priced at SGD219 and available in two designs).

Zoals ik jullie had verteld was er zaterdag een beach festivalletje hier in Swingapore.. And boy o boy, it was gooooooood. Om eerlijk te zijn erg weinig van de muziek mee gekregne, zal vast wel goed geweest zijn dan, des te meer mee gekregen van de tequila shotjes (dat zouden ze duidelijk ook op nederlandse festivals moeten verkopen)!

Er was vuurwerk, er was zand, er was geen drugs *duh*, er was geluid, er was promomateriaal (popcorn en suikerspin), er was zoveel.. To bad dat jullie er niet waren :( Missed you guys!

Persvrijheid

2009-12-15T09:18:00.004+08:00

Iets waar ik in Singapore ontzettend veel moeite mee heb is de vrijheid van meningsuiting. In Nederland achten wij het niet meer dan normaal dat je eigenlijk zo'n beetje op elk moment alles kan zeggen wat in je opkomt. Van Wilders' haar totaan hoe belachelijk het is dat de binnenstad van Den Haag autovrij is en zo'n beetje alles daar tussen in.. Iedereen die mij persoonlijk kent (en ahaha, zelfs als je me niet kent, en mn blog leest..) weet dat ik ontzettend zwart/wit kan denken en dat ik wel meer dan eens dingen eruit gooi die ik eigenlijk beter voor me zelf kan houden. But hey, we houden het spontaan..

Janet (L) vrijheid van meningsuiting. Hoe erg we ook altijd bitchen in Nederland: In de zomer is het te warm, in de winter is het te koud. Alle gastarbeiders moeten het land uit. De haring is wel erg duur dit jaar. We betalen teveel belasting. De winkels moeten dicht op zondag.. Hoe erg we ook bitchen, er zijn echt places way more worse!

Nou bestaat er een organisatie Verslaggevers Zonder Grenzen wat een kleine internationale niet-gouvernementele organisatie is die onderzoek doet naar de persvrijheid, en deze wil bevorderen. VZG publiceert een jaarlijkse rangschikking van landen, gebaseerd op een inschatting door de organisatie van de persvrijheid. Nou leuk en aardig zul je denken wat boeit mij dat? Ik had serieus ook nog nooit van deze lijst gehoord.. Omdat je het zooooo for granted neemt dan vrijheid van meningsuiting normaal is.

Op de lijst van 2009 staat Nederland op nummer 7 (of eigenlijk nummer 3 als je alle gedeelte plaatsen als 1 optelt) met enkel en alleen scandinavische landen boven zich. But they crazy, zij hebben 18 maanden zwangerschapsverlof dus totale vrijheid van meningsuiting kan er dan ook nog wel bij.. En in totaal zijn er 175 landen die meegenomen zijn in deze lijst. Guess on which ranking Singapore's.. 50? Fout! 75? Fout! 100? EFFING FOUT! Singapore staat gewoon op 133! Waarom is er niemand die daar in protest tegen gaan? Iedereen zeurt altijd dat ze in Noord-Korea zo zielig zijn maar je heb niet eens vrijheden in een van het rijkste land van de wereld!!! Singapore staat serieus onder landen als Kyrgyzstan (125, wtf is dit een land), Sierra Leone (115), en zo'n beetje elk land waar er ooit major oorlogen zijn geweest (kosovo, bosnia, kuweit..). Ik moet me echt even blijven herinderen dat Singapore a pretty cool place is maar na 3 maanden of gecensureerde films, mensen die zeggen dat je dingen niet hardop mag zeggen, katten met halve staarten verlang ik toch wel een klein beetje naar of een nieuw land of nederland..

What the hell? Jay-Z a devil worshipper?!?!?!

2009-12-14T09:40:00.008+08:00

I was telling my sis I kinda LOVE the empire song (see below) and in response she told me Jay-Z is a satan worshipper.. And I was like what the hell, you kiddin? So she send me a website http://thisis50.com/profiles/blogs/does-jayz-worship-the-devil and I was reading it.. And yeah, I guess it kinda does make sense!! In the empire song he raps: If Jesus cant save you, life starts when the church ends and like most of the time I cant make jack shit out of rap lyrics but hey that sentence really doesnt make sense AT ALL.. Why the hell would you say such thing when the song's about how much you love new york? But oke..

So what's the deal? Apparently Jay-Z (ofcourse, might it be true) sold his soul to the devil to make it big time in life.. Snoop Dogg and some other guy (ehh, bone thug? I dont remember..) are alleged too.. I haven't made up my mind yet if I believe this.. But here's what's the deal:

So his pseudo is Hova right!? As in jaHOVAh as in God.. Kinda peculiar when you call yourself god.. I call myself bamiesoep, because I love it.. Really not the same when you call yourself God..
Next thing.. The HOVA sign.. Like the triangle thing.. Like the eye.. Like in that movie treasure hunter.. That movie was great fun.. But where does the hova sign comes from.. Just google 'mason sign' and a whole load of websites are giving some background informations about the signs (and even the secret handshakes that Jay-Z's supposedly giving...) [I did the googling for you: "The Mason takes the fellow Mason by the right hand as in an ordinary hand shake, and presses the top of his thumb hard on the second knuckle, the fellow Mason presses his thumb against the same knuckle of the first Mason's hand." ] See: http://www.ephesians5-11.org/handshakes.htm

He has a song, which goes under the name Lucifer.. Ahaha, do I need to say more?
And then the song Run This Town with Rihanna.. My sister and me really didnt understood why they made such a fuzz about the release date of that song (you still remember, they were like countdowning it..) and Im just NOT feeling the song AT ALL! So there are a lot of people who think that that song was the introduction of somekind of new order (illuminati)..
Wouldnt it make TOTAL sense.. If Chris Brown tried to knock out the devil in Rihanna (then beated down Rihanna because she couldn stfu)? Because the WHOLE chris-beat-her-down doesnt make sense at all to me.. He supposedly beated her, because she saw a text by some random girl.. Well she knew he has groupies so big deal.. But honestly if somebody could provide me with some evidence about what really happened it wouldnt surprised me if some kind of black power was involved aswell..
Oke so Rihanna.. Ahaha I'm not feeling here, so yeah could be a satan worshipper.. Does provide sum info about the sudden 360 switch in music she makes.. Good girl gone bad, right?!

I don't know, shit creaps the hell out of me.. Would be hella scary if this all was true.. If there's actually some new order that's waiting to take over the world. It also could just be marketing.. It also could be paranoid people.. It also could be the plot of a very bad movie.. What you think?

Where I wanna/should be!

2009-12-11T16:49:00.009+08:00

Sometime you just know.. Life has more for you to offer then it's showing now.. And I know, future life for me isn't back in Holland.. Although you keep reading shit about me missing wheatbread, mommy, etc. I love life in a foreign country, the pace of life in Singapore, I go out for dinner every night, meeting new beautifull people. I'm doing a new exciting thing every week. Im learning so much about life, about myself. That I'm perfectly capable to be alone in a country where I didn't knew anybody or anything. That I'm more or less able to addapt to a new culture. That life offers you beautifull things when you're opening your soul for it.

Back home tends to be the same every day/week/year.. It's so easy to stay in your comfort zone when everything is within effortless reach. You don't need to learn new people, because you already have your incrowd. You don't have to do new things, when you can stay at home and pig out cooking. Life is safe.. But safe isn't the thing for me. Ofcourse I think ahead a lot.. Im not the rebel kind who can live truelly day by day (oke, I maybe living per week now..). But save.. No thanks.

I really feel like that life's asking me to broaden my view, go to places. It offers it right? Why don't take advantage of it! My mommy decided when she was only 18 to move to a country where she didn't spoke the language (and didnt even spoke English), didn't know anybody only for the prospect to have a better life. With her pretty face and the knowledge her familiy was supporting her she traveled all the way from Hong Kong to the Netherlands. If she had the courage at that age, without the knowledge/skills I accumulated in my life, I certainly know I have the courage too!!

But I know Singapore is not the place for me. I don't feel (and don't think I ever will..) being home here and that has not so much to do that my loved ones aren't here (ofcourse it has do a little). It has more to do with the fact that I'm not ment to live in a country so small as this full with chinese and indian people (how racy this may sound...). They (in general) do not share the same principles and I don't find myself in a position willing to share them (yuk pig instentines). However a country such as America, where you have a lot of Chinese people and Indian people but also a bunch of caucasian people and I guess like every race thinkable... NY a city with it's own principles, culture and people. It sounds sooo appealing to me.

Im always in two minds whether I want to study forever or to begin real life. I LOVE studying, it provides so much free time. But thinking about it now, I don't do jack shit with all that spare time back home. I usually stay home, sleep, watch comedies and eat. But hey, I kinda like(d) it. No worries, just go to school seems to be the only requirement in my life back home. Sure, I go to work occasionaly but that's more for fun than because of a real need of money. But I also cant wait for real life. I cant wait to move somewhere, New York sounds hella good, start up my life as a grown up (yuk, grown up) make money. Buy me some Louboutins (everybody who buys Louboutins with there daddy's money is effing gay. You should be ashamed of yourself and throw yourself in front of something!), go to the most expensive spa to get my weekly facial. Never do my nails myself again, because Ill support economy by going out for my mani and pedi. Buy my parents things, because they bought me everything I wanted for so many years, putting their needs 2nd place. Have sex and the city like brunches and dinners at some awesome place in the City. I know I'm young.. But life is calling.. No, its screaming..

I think it's time to go..

xoxo

ps. Im sorry for all who requested me writing in Dutch. Hearing Alicia singin' made me sooo enthousiastic about moving to some exciting place overseas and English ofcourse goes hand in hand with that..

Darnit WHY CANT I SING (properly)

2009-12-11T14:20:00.003+08:00

Seriously, WHY o WHY does it seems that ALL the talent in the WHOLE world is accumulated in this one guy? He's frigging awesome.. I think that even the most anoyingi crybaby will stfu when it will hear Gabe..

YouTube's new VEVO

2009-12-11T13:33:00.004+08:00

Vevo is an online music video website owned by Sony Music Entertainment, Universal Music Group, EMI and Abu Dhabi Music Company, that is developed and hosted by YouTube, Sony, and Google, with content being initially provided by
Universal Music Group. It has begun operations from the midnight of 6th December, 2009. Google's YouTube video service will host Universal content on the satellite website, making this the first time that YouTube hosts content off its main website. Through this partnership, Google and Universal will split ad revenues. It is expected to become the largest music oriented website on the Internet. Vevo is not designed to be exclusive to Universal, but currently only Universal is signed up to offer its content. Universal CEO Doug Morris claims it plans to work with other record companies to host content from elsewhere.

A possible major reason behind the project is the competition that music videos have on YouTube. Warner Music Group apparently removed its content from YouTube in March 2009 for just this reason, but is said to be considering hosting its content on this new service. The concept for the site is described as being a Hulu for music videos and the plan may have arisen from the goal of attracting more high-end advertisers. Currently, it is believed that many advertisers are ambivalent to hosting advertising on YouTube's site alongside user-generated video In the future, the site could host more than just music videos, such as editorials, other types of videos, and user-generated content.

This saturday is Singapore's only outdoorfestival on a beach called Sentosa (it's actually a manmade beach and rather boring in my opinion). There will be 30.000 party lovers expected to come and with dj's such as Armin van Buuren (why do non-Dutchies love him SOO much? I think he kinda sucks..), Martinez brothers (effing hell the youngest brother is only 17!!), Miss Kittin (beat that bitch with the a hit, i beat i beat i beat i beat..), and Tiga it should be quite rad!

So if any series of fortunate events may bring you to Singapore this weekend please join :D

BRUSSEL - Nederlandse jongens verlaten de ouderlijke woning gemiddeld als ze 24,2 jaar oud zijn. Voor meisjes ligt die leeftijd op 23,2 jaar.

Nederlandse jongeren horen daarmee tot de koplopers in Europa, samen met de Finse en de Franse. Bulgaarse, Sloveense en Slowaakse jongeren zijn het meest honkvast. Jongens uit deze landen gaan pas thuis weg als ze gemiddeld 31,5 zijn. Voor meisjes ligt die leeftijd een paar jaar lager.Dat blijkt uit cijfers die Eurostat, het statistisch bureau van de EU, donderdag heeft gepresenteerd.

Zoals velen wel van jullie wel hebben gelezen (of lees uitwonendinwonend als je dat nog niet hebt gedaan), heb ik vaak het gevoel dat ik op kamer moet want iedereen doet dat. WELL everybody seems to be more like me!! Ik heb nog 1,2 jaar om binnen te norm te blijven!! Dat betekent EEN KAT KOPEN, geld sparen (ipv huur betalen) om een echte wereldreis te maken, genieten van mijn mutti en vatti want die zijn zo lief en geen kleren wassen!!

Een ode aan thuis wonen!

Colour of the Day

2009-12-11T09:28:00.010+08:00

O.P.I - Do You Lilac it? / O.P.I. - Hey! Get in Lime!

One of the greatest things about Asia is that you have a lot of (cheap) manicures around! Being to lazy to cut my own toenails (or being to lazy in general) forced me to go do a mani and pedi! For a mere 38 SGD (thats about 19 euro!) you'll be pampered for more then an hour! They scrub, cut all unnecessary hard skin (eelt), file your nails and ofcourse polish them.

On my fingernails I proudly present O.P.I.'s Hey! Get in Lime! Absolute LOVE LOVE LOVE this colour! Normally I have a lot of either pink polish or crazy colour polish (blue, yellow you name it I show it), however this mint/lime green colour is a combination of both! Because it's soo soft, all pastel, it's almost comparable with baby pink. However, it's still green and that makes it a party on my nails.

On my feet I have Do You Lilac It? also by O.P.I. and it's absofuckinglutely cute as Taylor Lautner!! I love dark colours but Im always afraid that a dark colour on my toenails resembles more of nails falling of then fash.. So I chose for a happy light purple one.

And yes I do agree, I look like an easteregg with this colour combination. But I love it! Sephora (in the Netherlands) finally started to have O.P.I. for sale (waited A LONG time for that!) and what I've heard they sell it for 16 euro, which sounds cheap when you compare it to Chanel nailpolish.. However, they sell it at Sephora USA for 9 dollar!! Thats like 6 euro, so you could almost buy three in the US for every one bought in NL :( :( :(

Kerstbomen horen niet langer bij het 'internationale karakter en de diversiteit' van een school. Tenminste, dat vindt de Haagse Hogeschool. Er komt dit jaar dan ook geen kerstboom in de aula van de school te staan."In plaats van een boom heeft de school nu gekozen voor het thema 'licht en warmte', dat door iedereen op zijn eigen manier ingevuld kan worden," zo zegt de directie.

Tiger, tiger, tiger..

2009-12-08T16:32:00.003+08:00

Zoals jullie wel kunnen zien hebben ik een enorme productieve dag.. Beetje jammer dat het blogwise productief is en ik jack shit aan mn project heb gedaan en het nu al 16.33 is en dat ik maar heb besloten om van vandaag wederom een nieuwe dag van niks doen te maken..

Maar Mr. Woods, Tiger Woods.. The ideal son-in-law untill one week ago.. Bij de meeste celeb's weet je dat het allemaal een act is.. Megan Fox says bullshit like every other day, omdat ze weet dat ze zo in de publiciteit blijft.. Dit is ook de enige reden waarom onze 'eigen' Kim Feenstra nog steeds een BNer is (en ook de reden waarom we niks meer horen van elk ander winaares). Lilly aka drunk Allen. Paris Hilton. Zelfs Victoria Beckham, die vast thuis dr kinderen in bed stopt met Louboutins aan..

But I honestly believed that Tiger was a sincere man. A man who worked hard for his billions (the first sport endorse who made it to the billions!). But he just couldn't keep it in his pants. Hij heeft een BLOEDMOOIE vrouw, maar toch had hij the need om the alleged 10 skanks (die zowel lelijk als jong als empty minded zijn) als buitenvrouw drbij te hebben. Zijn vrouw zweeds topmodels, buitenvrouw lelijke serveerster.. How hard is it to weight those two out!

Geen enkele van zijn endorsement bedrijven is van plan om hun contract op te zeggen omdat het om de sport gaat (terwijl het bij Kate Moss ook om de foto's zou moeten gaan, maar zij is ook een hoop contracten verloren, welliswaar heeft de tijd aan haar zij gestaan en is ze bigger ehh thinner and richer then ever). Maar was niet iedereen juist een beetje fan van hem omdat hij zo sincere overkwam? Als kwart chinees, kwart thai, kwart afro american, achtste native american en achste nederlands had de beste man het al zwaar genoeg, right?

I sure hope he's willing to accept Oprah's invitation to her show and do some explaining (or either let his agency force him to accept for some positive publication..).. Ben meer dan benieuwd wat die te melden heeft!!

For now, Im just sooo dissappointed.. Het is een beetje zoals toen Gordon uit de kast kwam..

It's sooo effing hilarious in 120 words!

"We're out of Grape Nuts... No, what's left is for me. Sorry, I should have said "You're out of Grape Nuts."

"I just want silence. Jesus, it doesn't mean I don't like you. It just means right now, I like silence more."

"It's never the right time to have kids, but it's always the right time for screwing. God's not a dumbshit. He knows how it works."
"I don't need more friends. You got friends and all they do is ask you to help them move. Fuck that. I'm old. I'm through moving shit."
"Mom and I saw a great movie last night...No, don't remember the name. It was about a guy or, no, wait.. fuck, getting old sucks."
"Son, no one gives a shit about all the things your cell phone does. You didn't invent it, you just bought it. Anybody can do that."
"I like the dog. If he can't eat it, or fuck it, he pisses on it. I can get behind that."
"Does anyone your age know how to comb their fucking hair? It looks like two squirrels crawled on their head and started fucking."

I could like quote EVERY tweet, because they are all ROFL funny!

X-Mass is coming..

2009-12-07T14:23:00.009+08:00

Singaporeans are really into x-mass.. They started decorating Orchard road like 3 weeks ago (YEAH, even before Sinterklaas. Fail!). I think it's on CapitaLand's (Asia's biggest real estate investor) agenda to get even more people to shop even more.. But it just feels SOOOOOOOOO against every law in nature to celebrate xmass in a country where humid reachers percentages nearly 100 and where it's > 30 degrees on a daily basis..

I miss the coldness/darknesss/shopping with mummy in la Haya/sloffen/hot coco/scarves feeling!!

Every time I'm at Orchard, seeing all those people taking pictures in shorts and tanktops it like epic fail instantly.. But yeah yeah, there are TONS and TONS of great stuff in Singapore.. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Canele where they sell AWESOME macaroons! Almost, no not almost, EVERY mall in Singapore has at least one amazing desert shop! And since Im overweight already in Asia (ahaha I kid I kid) I do eat deserts like EVERY day <3>

I can see the light at the end of Singapore's tunnel now (another of 2.5 weeks working, then 3 week vacation in Singapore and then sum traveling trough sout east asia) but I think I'll miss Singapore.. But thats a subject for a future coming blog!

For now scarves, macaroons, coffee and music..

Miaa Rose is WAAAAAAY more awesome (and hotter!) then Esmee Denters!! Miaa for president!!

2009-12-07T12:13:00.004+08:00

Na een paar dagen uit de roulering te zijn geweest (waarvan 1,5 dag ziek en 1,5 dag arbeiders-ethos-loos) ben ik weer terug op mn spot op het werk.. Ik heb deze week dus vrij weinig gedaan behalve eten.. En mn laptop bewonderen..

Gisteren had ik een conversatie met een 'vriendinnetje' hier.. En op de een of andere manier heeft zij zooooo'n twisted mind set dat ik dr bijna om veracht.. De situatie: Christian Ronaldo was op tv, als US citizen weet zij natuurlijk niet wie hij is.. Dus ik legde het uit, en over dat het best riant is om voetbalvrouw te zijn, behalve het cheating even-tiger-woods-does-it Rich-Men-Syndroom.. Het lijkt alsof bij mannen hun inkomen en hun kans op vreemdgaat evenredig stijgt.. Hoe rijker de man, hoe groter de kans op buitenvrouwen..

Nu het frappante: dit meisje is dus echt volledig in vrede ermee als haar man vreemd gaat als hij maar provide, financieel gezien en dak boven het hoofd! Ik dacht echt dat wij vrouwen eindelijk enigszinds geemancipeerd waren en dat we ook voor ons zelf kunnen zorgen! Het verbaast me ZOOO ontzettend dat er nog jonge vrouwen zijn die zo kunnen denken, alsof geld geluk kan kopen??

Het verbaast me zo intens dat er echt nog mensen op de wereld zijn die zo bekrompen kunnen denken. WAAROM zou je iemand anders voro je willen laten zorge als je het ook zelf kan?!?!

Al de mensen die mij hebben opgevoed (en waarschijnlijk ook een groot deel van mijn karater) die hebben mij geleerd dat het ultieme doel is om voro jezelf te zorgen (en uiteindelijk op een punt te komen waar je je ouders bijv. terug kan betalen voor alles wat ze voor je hebben gedaan).

In mijn opini is het geen einddoel op zich om iemand te vinden, die financieel voor je kan zorgen. Wat gebeurd er als geld wegvalt? Wat blijft er dan over? Het is des te meer belangrijk dat er iemand is, die emotioneel voor je kan zorgen. Dat is het enige wat overblijft als je al het materialistische wegstreept. Iemand met wie je een gezin op wilt bouwen, waar je op kan vertrouwen, die zich mentaal gebonden voelt met je (rather then financial).. Iemand met wie je een diepgaande relatie kan opbouwen i.p.v. een superficial trophywife achtige situatie (grap is btw dat dat meisje echt niet lekkaht is..)..

What do you think? Moet je iemand zoeken die financieel voor je kan zorgen, of iemand die voor je kan zorgen period!?

I honestly can say that I know that I can be happy with a the perfect guy without a cent on his bankaccount.. Love's what matters, right Kris!

How Blackberry saved my life...

2009-12-01T16:35:00.006+08:00

Allereerst, blackberry de telefoon zelf is GI-GAN-TISCH kut en ik denk dat iedere gebruiker dat zal beamen. De mijne valt geregelt (alsin bijna elke dag) gewoon uit om vervolgens weer aan te gaan. Op slechte dagen doet mn LED lampje het niet meer en zo zijn er nog wel meer mankementen.

MAAR het heeft en het maakt mijn verblijf aan de andere kant van de wereld ZOVEEL makkelijker. Ik heb nog 0 heimwee gehad, gewoonweg omdat ik iedereen die mij lief is nog steeds elk moment van de dag kan aanspreken. Natuurlijk is er zoiets als tijdverschil, maar het merendeel van mijn dag (alleen de morgen niet, want dan is het in NL snachts) is iedereen bereikbaar.. Op het feit na dat ik in 1 weekend 126 euro over mijn bundel heen ben gegaan met enkel en alleen internetten (foto's versturen/ontvangen, perez moet gelezen worden, nu.nl om het nieuws bij te houden. maar het was een wijze les voor de aankomende maand) hou ik van bbm.

Gister (de laatste dag van de maand) had ik mijn BB uitgezet (om niet NOG meer over mn bundel heen te gaan) en dan voel je je opeens best alleen in zo'n grote stad. Tuurlijk heb ik hier een hoop nieuwe vrienden gemaakt, maar het zijn juist de kleine dingen die je glijk met je geliefden wilt delen (denk aan: iiee kheb een kat met 3 poten gezien) en als dat opeens niet meer kan. Ja, dan sta je er wel even bij stil dat zo'n verblijf in het buitenland voor sommige mensen best lastig kan zijn..

Thank god hoef ik niet verder te zwelgen in mijn loneliness want het is de 1e van de maand en dat betekent weer nieuwe belminuten..

Dus lieve lezers, voelen jullie je geroepen om ook een live verbinding met mij te hebben? 21072F39

Cats Tailes

2009-11-30T11:23:00.007+08:00

Zoals jullie wel eerder hebben kunnen lezen verbaas ik me keer op keer erover dat de katten hier halve staarten hebben met allerlei kromme bochten erin.. Ik was (en ben stiekem nog steeds) er heilig van overtuigd dat er een of andere phychopaat in Singapore rondloopt die niet met alle regels hier om kan gaan en 's nachts als iedereen het licht uit heeft gedaan naar buiten glip uit frustratie met een schaar om vervolgens de staarten van katten af te knippen..

Ik heb ook vele malen aan de locals hier gevraagd hoe het nou zit met die staarten en allemaal kwamen ze met het antwoord ohh dat was me eigenlijk nooit echt opgevallen, ze zullen wel zo geboren zijn en elke keer ging ik er dan tegenin dat ik er NIET in geloof dat katten zo geboren worden.. BUT WHAT THE HELL, THEY DO... WHAT THE EFFING FUCK!

In a 1949 study, Searle found no kinked tails in London cats. He studied
Singapore's cats in 1959 and eventually concluded that stubby-tailed cats were
common in Singapore, but in general was rare in Europe except for the Manx breed
where the tail was often completely absent.

source: http://www.messybeast.com/bobtail-cats.html

I KNOW wtf right? Er zit hier echt iets foktops in het water waardoor die katten zo gemuteerd zijn. En dat zelfde spul zorgt ervoor dat bijna iedereen hier een grotere 2e teen heeft (groter dan de grote teen, EHH ik weet niet hoor het heet niet voor niets je GROTE teen, als het de bedoeling was dat je 2e teen groter zou zijn zou die wel een significantere naam hebben gekregen)

Verder zijn de katten hier VEEL minder angstig als Nederlandse katten maar weten dan ook weer niet zo goed wat ze moeten doen met menselijke aandacht.. Ze blijven dan wel gwon zitten (zelfs midden op Orchard, wat een beetje de PC van Singapore is) naast mensen, maar als iemand (ik..) ze aait weten ze echt niet wat ze er van vinden, vinden ze het fijn willen ze blijven liggen, etc?

Snap eigenlijk zowiezo niet dat de overheid zwerfkatten toelaat (i know they cute, but hey even a pack of smokes cost more then 10 dollars and you're allowed to kill pigeons..). Dit is de kat die elke dag op me wacht na het werk.. He's freaking awesome, heeft gister uitgevonden dat die door de 2e deur (soort van gevangenis deur) kan als die zich hard genoeg door de balken duwt.. Zodat die bij mij op de bank kan komen liggen. Beetje jammer dat mn tante als een boze beul m wegstuurt.. ps. he has a half tail!

How Twilight Works

2009-11-26T14:05:00.005+08:00

Written by The Oatmeal

A few weeks ago I had the miserable experience of reading Twilight. A friend bought it for me and I took it with me to read on a long flight from Seattle to Houston. I knew it was going to be crappy, but I thought it would be a guilty pleasure kind of crappy - where you know it's bad but you still get enjoyment out of it. I actually managed to power through around 400 pages until I gave up and started reading Sky Mall. I've been seeing Twilight everywhere lately, especially with Vampire Teens II New Moon's release, so I thought I'd break down why chicks go apeshit for it.

First off, the author creates a main character which is an empty shell. Her appearance isn't described in detail; that way, any female can slip into it and easily fantasize about being this person. I read 400 pages of that book and barely had any idea of what the main character looked like; as far as I was concerned she was a giant Lego brick. Appearance aside, her personality is portrayed as insecure, fumbling, and awkward - a combination anyone who ever went through puberty can relate to. By creating this "empty shell," the character becomes less of a person and more of something a female reader can put on and wear. Because I forgot her name (I think it was Barbara or Brando or something like that), I'm going to refer to her as "Pants" from here on out.

So after a few chapters of listening to Pants whine about high school, sucking at volleyball, and being the center of attention, the second major character is introduced. Imagine everything women want in a man, then exaggerate it by ten thousand - and you've got Edward Cullen. The level of detail that the author goes into while describing Edward's appearance is remarkable. At one point while reading I started counting the number of times the author used the expression "Edward's perfect face," and it was far into the double digits. The author excruciatingly details his muscular pecs, clothing, hair, eye color - even his goddamn breath (I'm not joking).

Edward intensely listens to everything Pants has to say, even if she's bitching about she had diarrhea on Christmas or her preferred method for cutting a sandwich in half. As far as the reader is concerned, Edward cares about nothing in the world more than Pants. What the author has done is created a perfect male figure - a pale Greek statue which the reader can worship and in turn be worshipped by.

So what about men that like Twilight?
If you're male and you like Twilight, you're gay. I don't mean that in the derogatory sense, I mean it in the "you want to put your testicles against another man's testicles while gripping handfuls of chesthair" kind of way.

And the movie?
The movie is just the same uninspired crap shat out onto a film reel. If you like the taste of horse manure on your bologna sandwiches, you're probably gonna like it on your birthday cake as well. The same principle applies with Twilight.

Beyond that, it's just a romance novel with the occasional vampire teen drama bullshit peppered here and there. It doesn't really break any new ground in the realm of vampire fiction, other than portraying vampires as a family of uncomfortable retards who prance around the woods eating deer and bunny rabbits. There's lots of nervous lip-biting, tender kisses between Pants and Edward, and lengthy descriptions of every feature of Edward's body. Pants is a static character who never really progresses beyond being an insecure vampire fangirl who obsesses over Edward. Whether her character grows beyond that is unknown to me, I'd stopped reading by then and shifted my attention to an electric butt-massaging chair in Sky Mall.

NEE! Ik heb de laatste toevoeging aan de Twilight Saga nog niet gezien en zal hem hoogstwaarschijnlijk ook niet zien voordat die op DVD komt.. WHY? In Singapore worden ALLE films gecensureerd, so that means no sex, no violance, no nothing spectacular.. Het zou me serieus niet verbazen als alle t-shirt-off momenten er gewoon uit geknipt worden SO WHY EVEN BOTHER to spend the money.. It's the only reason why girls go to this movie anyway..

Asians biggest blogsters

2009-11-24T15:18:00.015+08:00

Blogging is big bucks in Asia! Bloggers are treated as some kind of celeb, will get crazy multi-thousand dollar endorsement deals and fairly all are just famous because of being pretty girls (read: kim kardashian), tho I personally think that Angela is the only pretty one.

All of the below are allegedly plastic surgery visitors.. Are the girls in Asia really that displeased with what they see in the mirror every morning? Why do they all seem to have the urge to look like they're a caucasian? For me, born and raised in the Netherlands, I have more a mental state of 'act normal, thats crazy enough'. I am (or wasn't before I moved to Singapore) not familair with all the esthetic procedures that do excist here. There even are operations to create a moving eyelid (already have that one, so can thick that one off)! And btw there's nothing wrong to be tanned JUST a little bit, friggin whitening lovers..

http://angelababy.xanga.com/

I think Angela is gorgeous, she's 3/4 chinese and 1/4 german.. LOVE her hair! So besides cutting bangs I have to grow my hair longer.. I SAY YOU'RE EFFING HAWT TO ANGELABABY

I think Janice Man looks cute, but her dogs relaly top her..

First chinese Victoria Secret model

2009-11-24T11:59:00.005+08:00

Liu Wen became the first Chinese (and second Asian) model to walk the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show last week. Too bad she doesn't have a booty and/or boobies to show off with.. I do think she's a great couture fashion model, she's pure and has a real Asian appearance.. No eyelidcorrection, pale skin, great smile and crazy strong bone structure. She seems like a lot of fun on backstage pictures (vis-a-vis all the caucasian girls who just look starving..)

The VSshow will be aired on CBS in December.

HR Manager

2009-11-24T11:12:00.003+08:00

Naast mijn cubicle zit de assistent van de HR manager, zij komt elke dag ruim een half uur te laat en is ook elke dag eerder weg dan ik weg ben (en ik sta om 5 voor gereed om precies om 6 uur weg te kunnen). Ze oogt erg jong en ik heb eigenlijk geeeeeeeeen idee wat zij precies doet de hele dag (waarschijnlijk heeft niemadn ook een idee wat ik de hele dag doe..)..

De HR manager, is een hilarische man.. Ik heb hem al meerdere keren zien slapen in zijn kantoor en hij is bijna elke dag al rond een uur of 4/5 weg.. Nu had ik zojusit een gesprek met hem en vooraf zat ik al van #&%^* straks ziet hij dat ik de hele dag op blogs zit.. Maar nee hij wou gewoon weten of ik het naar mn zin had. Om een mooi politiek antwoord te verzinnen zei ik dat ik het fijn vind dat je werkstress (niet dat ik die heb..) op kantoor kan laten en niet mee naar huis kan nemen (zoals schoolstress..) ahah toen gaf hij als respons: ja als ik even ergens geen antwoord op kan vinden dan ga ik naar huis en soms schiet het antworod me dan te binnen als ik bijvoorbeeld aan het rijden bent.. DUDE, je hebt gewoon geen zin om te werken.. Er werken hier misschien 40 mensen op kantoor WAAROVER moet ej beslissingen nemen? Als HR me kon interesseren zou ik echt voor die richting kiezen, you dont have to do shit!

Vraag me af hoe laat hij vandaag naar huis gaat..

First thing to do...

WHY-O-WHY

2009-11-23T14:33:00.003+08:00

Nederland - Singapore

2009-11-23T10:21:00.005+08:00

Het grootste cultuurverschil tussen Nederland en Singapore is dat men hier volledig voor het werken gaat men leeft hier om te werken terwijl men in Nederland enkel en alleen werkt om te kunnen leven. Hier in Singapore zijn er serieus kantoorbanen die 5,5 werkdag beslaan, er is geen gezond mens in Nederland die op zaterdag terug naar kantoor gaat.. Maar op de een of andere manier denk ik toch dat ze hier niet zo productief zijn.. Ze hechten ontzettend veel waarde aan het aantal uren dat je werkt, maar of je daadwerkelijk productief bent in die uren is zeer questionable..

Daarnaast zijn alle mooie meisjes nep. Hiermee bedoel ik dat als je een mooi meisje op straat ziet ze EN fake eye lashes op heeft EN extensions in dr haar heeft die ze chemisch heeft gestraight EN ooglidstickers op dr oog heeft geplakt (ehh jah om een ooglid te creeeren...) EN ze naar een slimming salon te gaan om zo onder de 50 kg te zitten.. Alle meisjes die dit allemaal niet hebben gedaan zijn dan ook gwon oerlelijk

Hun eeuwige arrogantie mbt hun working pace (want die is o-zo snel vergelijken met westerse culturen *not*) doet hun loop pace te niet.. De mensen hier lopen ZOOOOOO godstervens langzaam zelfs een slak zou achterstevoren sneller zijn!! Ik weet van mezelf dat ik voor Nederlandse begrippen al vrij langzaam loop (waarom die haast zou ik normalitair zeggen) maar zelfs IK loop echt 100x sneller dan de mensen hier CRAZY.. Ze hebben ook de verschrikkelijke neiging om voor een roltrap netjes te wachten tot de nieuwe tree komt (ipv gewoon erop stappen en je daarna aanpassen aan de treden) wat een ontzettende bottleneck creeert!

Ze eten alles.. En daarmee bedoel ik ALLES..

Ze dansen de technotronic.. Ja, die franse heaumeau dans van die ene clip.. For real.. En als ze niet de technotronic dansen dan springen ze wegens gebrek aan ritemegevoel denk ik..

Het is maandag half 11.. THANK GOD is het vrijdag een officiele feestdag en heb ik woensdag een vergadering wat dus betekent dat ik maar effectief 3,5 dag achter mn bureau zal zitten *yay*

88 palette

2009-11-20T10:46:00.007+08:00

Im probably the 385.487.523.238th blogger who opened a topic about the 88 pallete.. i just adore make up.. funniest thing is, i buy all kinds of crazy stuff and in the end i only use mascara, blush and a bit of powder.. BUT the 88 palette does make me curious, could i experiment with make up aswell?

Every girl (and even some guys) make pics of themselve, admire then and put the prettiest/hottest online at facebook, flickr, twitter.. You're a friggin liar if you say you never do such thing..

But this girl is an effing pro in making pics of herself and she's doing a mighty fine job at it!
