Down memory lane - 2014

Hi everyone!
It's the last day of the year and I can't quite believe it. I'm the type of person who gets sad, when things end - Holidays, birthdays, Christmas, important days in your life. Because sometimes I almost don't even realize how fast everything pass by. 
I want to thank the people who stuck with me through 2014. I appreciate each and every one of you. I'm so thankful for everyone who sticks with me. I've grown a lot personally this year, where I've learned more about who I really am. This blog has definitely helped me with that as I've felt the need to express the real me on here, which has helped me found out who I am. 
Anyways, I think I've made it clear now, that I can't believe 2014 is almost over.
For this post I wanted to go a bit down memory lane. But not too far. I'm just going to show a few things, which I experienced in 2014. I hope I'll get to blog much, much more in 2015 - Then I'll probably also have a lot more photos to show in a year. 
2014 was many things to me. Hard times, happy times, sad times and much more. I've had a hard year, learning to cope with some things. I'm actually happy to say, that my blog has been with me through almost it all. But that's why I've also decided to start a new series on my blog in 2015. I haven't decided on a name yet for the series, but it's going to be about the small, good things in life. The things which lifts an ordinary Monday up but also the small things like the first spring flower in my garden or a new favourite tea. The small, good things in life, which makes me happy and thankful for yet another day in the life. This is for me to look back at good things, and for both myself and you to remember to see the good things, even though they are small. 

Finally let's start looking at some of the good highlights of my year in photos...

 ... I spontaneously started this blog, which I now see as a place, where I can write down my thoughts...

... In May I went on an amazing holiday to Mallorca...
 ... I had these cuties and their 5 siblings living with me... Oh how I love bunnies...
  ... I also had an amazing Summer holiday with my family... We were on a trip where we lived right out to these cliffs...

... At the end of the Summer holiday, I planned a Tea Party for my family. It was so much fun and really nice...
... And I made these cookie bars for the first time at the Tea Party, I've made them many times now, since they are super good...
 ... I got my first ever Filofax. I really like having it, planning my weeks and being creative with it...

... I started doing Yoga. I didn't know anyone, who did it - But I wanted to do it, so I went for it. I love it and will continue with it in 2015...

I obviously did many more things, which I liked, but these were some of the photos, I could find and I chose for this post. Because even though, they aren't super big, they meant something for how I live my life and they meant something to me.

I wish you all a Happy New Year! I look forward to writing again in 2015 and I wish you a great 2015 <3
Take care.

Merry Christmas

Hi everyone!
I hope you all had/have a very Merry Christmas and if you don't celebrate Christmas - I still hope you have a great day as well. 
Where I live, we celebrate Christmas on the 24th and I had a wonderful day yesterday with my family. 
Today I'm just relaxing in my pajamas while watching Christmas movies like Elf and eating leftover chocolate. 
But I also went for a long walk in the snow with my family.
I'd love to hear, what you got in your presents if you did get something!
How did you spend the 24th-25th of December?

Xxx

Back to Blogging

Hi again!
I just realised, it has been 4 months, since I last blogged...
I recently talked to Yael and I got really inspired to blog again. But I thought, since it has been such a long time, I would have to do a little explaining first.
If you have been here for a while, you might remember, that I blogged about the subject, that I was going to start on a new school.
Well... I did start on a new school, but I was used to being on a school, where you get extremely good education, and I was used to very good teachers... And my new school just wasn't that.
The teachers would show up 45 minutes late. They didnt actually teach us anything, they just made us do something in our books. 
I didn't feel good about that school.
On top of that, there were a lot of other reasons.
But long story short, I changed back. 
I actually think, the reason to why I didn't blog about it right away, is that I was a bit ashamed and I felt a little bit like a failure.
But I'm content with my choices.
So after that, I've been a bit stressed out, since we have had quite a big amount of homework, tests and assignment. 
I've also had a break from blogging because, to be completely honest, I didn't feel content with my posts. But I'll try to be honest and put my heart into my posts from now on.
Actually I'm procrastinating a bit today, and I'm blogging instead of making an assignment.
I'll blog as much as possible from now on, because I really enjoy it. 
I'm hoping to do a few Christmas themed blogposts too.
 It's soon Christmas break for me! I look forward to a bit of a break from all of the tests and assignments and I'm looking forward to spending time with my family. Plus I'll be able to blog much more then.
I hope you are all well, and check back soon to read a new post :-)
