Bucket list #2

So, a bit different title, but still the same post. Not the exact same as the last one, but...what am I saying? This is not normally the way you're supposed to start a post, right? Okay, fresh start:



Hey, back again for a new small bucket list. Said I would, didn't I?

~Have my own style~

My own style, that's what I want to have. I've seen a lot, really a lot of great clothes pass by. Not all from my closet, sadly enough. We have stores were you can see a lot of clothes, but you don't buy them all. And we have Pinterest, were we can look up fantastic wardrobe's. And hairstyles by the way. That's a big part of your style. So I want to have my own style! I really want to have my own style of clothes. Also, I wish I was handier with hair. I have very thin hair, that curls a bit. So maybe, when I'm somewhat older, I'll decide to curl my hair one day. I would like that. Or just have my hair a little shorter, so I can wear it loose. Or in a bun, or in a other easy but elegant hairstyle. So, closing off this part of my bucket list.


~Write my own book~

I have had many ideas, so you could say I've got the fantasy, but maybe not the writing. (Is that how you say it?)
I've begun a few stories, erased some parts, erased some whole stories, and am currently busy on a new one. I'll tell you about that on Sunday, or Monday or Tuesday, if you read it then. Or not at all, that's a possibility. Well, I would love to be able to have a good idea, believable characters, pretty names, good style of writing, not to much use of the same words and finish the story. And be able to make up a good title for it. It doesn't have to be published, it just would be nice if I finished it. I have a lot of secret boards on Pinterest of this story and that story. I even have all the characters inspiration photos. And some other photos of other stuff.(I am using the word ''other'' a lot, aren't I)

~Learn languages~

I like language. Not only my birth language but also others. Like Spanish, French, and English of course. I like English the most, because it's so pretty. Spanish is an easy language and easy to pronounce. Only they talk so fast. French is quite hard, but also a very pretty language. And Dutch...well, Dutch is just what it is. It's my own language and it's okay. Not really pretty, but still my language. And it's easy to learn(for us Dutch people). A lot of people(not Dutch from origin) say Dutch is a tough language to learn and understand. And it probably is, but not for me. It's very easy, but awfully strange when you compare it to English.
Like yes is ''ja'', and no is ''nee''. Pretty is ''mooi'' and language is ''taal''. Pretty weird, right? For the English people among us(which is the majority, I believe). So, now I probably explained why I like language ;)

Dag!/Bye!/Adíos!/Au revoir!


For clarification: Dutch, English, Spanish, and French.

~My bucket list for later~

Again, I'm very late and again, I'm sorry. I know this title sounds a bit childish and maybe weird, but this is kinda my bucket list. Things I would like to do when I'm older. But may never do. So, here's number 1.

~Visit the world~

I want to visit the world. And not in a hotel. Well, maybe sometimes staying in a hotel, but mostly just traveling. Per car. Or rather, per bus or per camper. I want to see the Taj Mahal, Macchu Picchu (don't pronounce it wrong, you have to say Macchu Pigchu, because else you say it wrong and...well, never mind), piramids and sfinxs in Egypt, mountains, all kinds of forests (rainforests, pine tree forests etc.), the Tower of Pisa, Venice, Rome, the Colosseum, The Liberty Statue, the Eiffeltower, Rio the Janeiro, Paris, New York, Texas, Mexico, the Wild West, Sydney. That's the world and I would love to explore the world. It might seem strange to some people that I want to travel. Because some people don't like to travel. My sister doesn't. But the rest of my family does. So it's understandable to some, and not to others.

~Try out a lot of new recipes~

I want to try new recipes. Make anything and try to add something so it tastes even more delicious. I bake every Friday and sometimes I just want to put something in it, to try if it tastes better. But I can't do that, because if it tastes revolting, then it's my fault and then I've messed up the muffins. You know? So I can't do that.

~Try a delivered pizza~

I seriously just want to order a pizza once. Just call a pizza business, order the pizza I want(probably a cheese pizza), wait until the doorbell rings, open the door, pay the boy or girl that delivers it, take the pizza, close the door and eat the pizza. I've never done that. It may sound silly but I really want to do that once.

~Meet a book author in real life~

I would love to meet an author in real life. Ask questions like: what is your favourite character of all the books you've written, what's your favourite book, why did you start writing, what inspired you for Wonderland Creek, did you really visit all the places? That kind of stuff. That would be great. And it doesn't have to be Lynn Austin, it can also be another author. Or maybe an actrice, but rather an author.

Well, now I'll stop. We have a limited time on the computer, so we won't be seriously very addicted to computers. So this will be the end. For now. Maybe I'll make a sort of part 2. But hey, starting again. See you again next time. (That sounds awfully formal)


I'll just say bye then!

Short announcement!

I made a new header and put it on the blog, with a background and applied it, but I know I said I would put header 2 from the last header choices on it, but I liked this header and I have put in a picture from the other header, so it is a bit the same. And since we are watching Gilmore Girls and it's still winter(it's February, of course), I also put in wintery Gilmore Girls pictures. And one of snow and skating. Appropiate for the winter season, however it is just one month until winter ends. We're know in the beginning of season 5. We are fast, I know, with watching, quite a bit faster then with other series. But we like it so much, all of us. Well, my older brother says he likes it because it's funny, and my two youngest brothers don't understand it(they don't understand English yet, and can't read the subtitles very fast, which my youngest sister can), but they like the song. ''Where you lead...I will follow...'' all around the house. :)
So, that was all. Short announcement.

Bye!

~Things you didn't know about Gilmore Girls~

A few of the things I didn't know about Gilmore Girls until I bumped into one and decided to make a post about it and look up all the other facts.

1.

Alexis Bledel (Rory Gilmore) doesn't like coffee, so she spent the entire ''Gilmore Girls'' drinking soda, whenever there was a scene where she was supposed to drink coffee.


2.

Alexis Bledel and Milo Ventimiglia (Rory and Jess) dated while playing the show, even when Jess and Rory were not together anymore.



3.

Keiko Agena(Lane Kim) was 25 when she started to play the role of Lane. She was only six years younger than Lauren Graham(Lorelai Gilmore). Also Liza Weil(Paris Geller) was 21 when she started playing Paris and Alexis Bledel was 18 when she played Rory.


4.

Luke's baseball cap wasn't just for show, it is a reference to Scott Patterson's (Luke Danes) earlier career as baseball player.

5.

Luke was actually written as a woman, Daisy, until the producers decided he would be a man. And even then, he wasn't supposed to be a series regular...but would've had a minor role.


6.

Liza Weil (Paris) originally tried out for the role of Rory and was denied, but the producers were so taken with Liza Weil, that they wrote Paris Geller for her instead.

7.

Since it was Alexis' first acting gig, Lauren Graham(Lorelai) noticeably has her arm around Alexis Bledel more often in season one so she could help direct her to the right spots.

8.

Stars Hollow is a real place. It is called Washington Depot and is located near Danbury and Woodbury, both of which are name-dropped. When visiting there, the Palladinos(the producers)were taken with the small-town charm of the place and the fact that patrons at the local diner were able to go behind the counter and serve themselves, as we see Lorelai do in the show. The town also features a town meeting form of government, which might mean that Taylor Doose is a real person.

9.

The Gilmore Girls pilot hired and fired two different Deans before they got to Jared Padalecki(Dean).

10.

The town meetings sometimes took full 20-hour days to film.

11.

Biff Yaeger(Tom) auditioned to play Taylor Doose in the first season. In case you don't know, Tom is the man on the right.

12.

Jared Padalecki (Dean) grew taller in between seasons 1 and 2.


13.

Emily Kuroda is actually quite opposite of her character Mrs Kim. She's really sweet and a computer geek.


14.

Keiko Agena (Lane) took drum lessons so she could actually play in the drum scenes.


That were all I could find and I have to get off the laptop now, so bye!

Hi there!

Hi everyone! I know, I know, it's been a quite long time since I made a post again. We just started our homeschooling this week and my brothers birthday is this Friday, so it was kinda busy. I'll try to get up with all the posts this week. And I know it's a bit late, because it happened last Saturday, but it snowed! It actually snowed!

It didn't snow this much, but it snowed. I woke up in the morning, my little sister opened the curtains to see how late it was(yes, our clock is hanging behind the curtains) and suddenly she shouted: ''Snow!'' I jumped out of bed and looked out of the window and there it was: the white world of snow.
It was crystalsnow, not soft snow, and it was not that much as I would like it to be, but at least it was something and at least it wasn't wet snow, that melts as soon as it hits the ground. So we took a walk in the snow. When we came back, my mom made us some hot chocolate, which was delicious.

Aaaaaaaaand...........we're watching Gilmore Girls now! I mentioned that before in the ''Happy New Year'' post, to call it like that. But now, we're officially addicted to Gilmore Girls, like my older brother said. We're in season two now.

It's so great! It's really fabulous to watch! It's really funny and just...really good! I love the show!

A few of the major characters. The two standing on the ground are, from left to right: Lorelai and Lorelai. They're both called Lorelai Gilmore. But the right girl is called Rory to prevent mistakes and confusion. The two above are Luke and Lane, and above them are(again from left to right): Michel, Miss Patty, Emily Gilmore and Sookie. The man behind them is Richard Gilmore, Lorelai's father. Emily is Lorelai's mother and Sookie is Lorelai's best friend. Luke is also Lorelai's friend and Lane is Rory's best friend. Michel is a man who works in Lorelai's inn, and Miss Patty is someone from Stars Hollow(Stars Hollow is the town where they live in). A few other characters are:

Dean, Rory's first boyfriend. I liked him first, but later he became quite annoying.

Jackson, the man next to Sookie. He delivers the fruit and vegetables for the inn, and also *SPOILER*
marries Sookie.

Madeline, Louise and Paris. Paris is the front girl and the two in the back are Louise and Madeline. I don't exactly know who is who, but I thought the girl with the black hair is Louise and the other one Madeline. But I looked it up and the girl with the black hair is Madeline, and the other Louise. Those three are on Chilton, Rory's school, by the way.

Jess, Luke's nephew. I do not like him. First not. Then I liked him, then I didn't, then I liked him and then I really felt sorry for him(not gonna tell you why, 'cause that's a spoiler).

Kirk is also someone from Stars Hollow. He is really awkward, but very funny.



So, bye now!

Header!

I counted the votes and header 2 and 4 both had the same amount of points.



Header 2:

and header 4:

I cannot choose! Header 2 seems to fit more in this time of year and is bright, but header 4 has such pretty colors and it looks so warm and peaceful. Maybe I should post one header this month and the other header next month. But then, which one will be this month? I re-counted the votes to be sure, and what comes out? Header 2 has more votes. But, I don't know why, I like header 4 more then header 2. Because I like the sun and it is shown more in that header maybe? Or because there are more Robin Hood BBC pictures in that one? I don't know. Okay, make the decision now!
Header 4! That is said and so will it be done. Now find a nice background. I hope this doesn't unplease some people, I'll do header 2 next month. Promise!

Happy New Year!(and a new header)

Happy New Year everyone! Say goodbye to the year 2016 and hello to 2017! We stayed up until twelve o'clock watching Gilmore Girls on the couch. Then when the clock stroke midnight(this sounds so Cinderella-ish),we all went upstairs to watch the firework. And downstairs, watching the firework of my brother. It was very pretty, but it made a lot of noise also. Now, it is morning, and everything is quiet again. I'm now tired of course, after nine hours of sleep. And it's the 1st of January! So that means time for a new header choice! This will probably be the last time you have to choose between headers, because last time I did it, there were only three or four people who commented. So next time I think I'll just make one header and put that specific one on my blog, without any choices from others. Here it goes!

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

 That were all the five headers!
