What a wonderful sunday I have had so far. I woke up, went back to bed, then woke up again, got up, opened my windows, moved my bed to my window and listened to the rain. The simple pleasures of life.

Took some pictures of my sister and edited them with picnik (first time). I love the 1960s effect. Instantly makes a photo look magical.

Enjoy your sunday!

Breakfast: bread, tons of butter and chocolate.
Mail: lovely pictures by Inna (Thank you!!).

School is right around the corner. I start with some courses in Biology next week and then on the 20th I officially start school again. It'll be good to study... Keep myself busy!

Have a nice weekend!

The National - Conversation 16
Vampire Weekend - The Kids Don't Stand A Chance & Oxford Comma

Back from the festival. It was awesome. I saw so many great bands. I really loved: Jonsi, Ellie Goulding (I'm really liking her! Check out this, this and this. Not a fan of her clips, but live she is absolutely magnificent!), Queens of the Stone Age, 2manydjs, The Van Jets and Snow Patrol. I'm still reliving all the concerts in my head... But now back to daily life! Have to work tomorrow. After 15 hours of sleep spread over 4 nights, I can really use my rest. So off to bed for me!

Have a sunny week! (Looks like we'll be having some rain here...)

Just got back from a concert. Charlie Winston. Oh how I love him and his smile. Was really one of the best live concerts I've seen in a while. Such a great band...

Two more days of work and then I'm off to another festival. Pukkelpop this time. Really really really looking forward to it! Did grocery shopping today... Lot's of instant food that will be heated on a little camping fire. Mmmmm!

Lovely song: Angus and Julia Stone - Big Jet Plane

Have a nice week!

Right now... I wish I was there.

My work week is over, the weekend has begun. Weekend project/task: get into the whole "swedish studying" thing again. Every day, one full hour, Rosetta Stone and me! Yeeha!

Have a lovely weekend!

Current playlist:

The Temper Trap - Soldier On
The Strokes - Trying Your Luck
Jonsi - Animal Arithmetic
Jonsi - Go Do
Arcade Fire - The Suburbs
The Strokes - I'll Try Anything Once

Mr. George in my sister's bed. She won't be too happy about that... But Livia, don't worry... I'll put some new sheets on your bed before you come back!

I started working again. 4 days a week in a lovely store. Enough to do... So I'm staying busy! Have a nice week!

Some last pictures I wanted to share from our trip to Stockholm.

Those 2 old ladies on the boat trip to Ahlsvik were so cute. They sat there and talked and had their breakfast together.

In Ahlsvik (actually Svartsö) we rented some bikes and biked around. Not that we could bike a whole lot... The island was about 17km by 1km (and to think it's one of the largest islands of the archipelago!), but definitely worth it regardless.

I like Sweden... After that week in Stockholm I kind of felt lost and empty. Something was missing. Maybe the fresh air? The beautiful nature? The lovely people? All I know is that in now and 10 years I'll be living somewhere else (hopefully). Belgium just isn't the country for me.
