A Little Courage

"A great deal of talent is lost to the world for want of a little courage" ~ Sidney Smith

Never be afraid to put the story in your head on paper :) There is no such thing as failing when it comes to writing. There is only re-writing until you get it right!

Making you happy

First of all, happy 2011 everyone! I hope you'll have a great year ahead of you! ^^

Second sorry I haven't posted in a while.

So my year didn't start off so good. As some of you might know, I've been living in England for about 4 months now and I'll be staying until somewhere in June. So far it's been great, but the last two weeks were horrible. I went home for chirstmas and had a fantastic time, but now that I'm back I find myself constantly thinking of home and being horribly homesick.
When my mum found out how depressed I was feeling she send me an email to cheer me up including a little list of things that make me happy.

Sunshine

Birds singing


Clear blue skies

Nature


Writing

A Smile

Random confersations with random people

Reading

 
 

Music

Being with friends

Fantasy


 





















Kindness

And much much more. I'm planning on posting more often on all of my blogs this year! ^^ I hope you'll keep reading them :)
What are the thing that make you happy?

Around the World

Hi everyone!

As most of you know, I'm currently staying in England for a year on an exchange student program. I'm having lots of fun so far. My host family is great and so are the students at my collage :)
They're all so nice to the exchange students and I already have many friends ^^

Anyway, because I'm abroad and because I've been thinking about the future lately, I'm having the incredible urge to travel.

Have any of you ever the urge to go around the world? Like this excited feeling in the pit of your stomach and you can't help but smile as you think about all the places you could be going.

(Photo is called Lost, Found and Lost Again, taken by NessaLuinwe check out her other amazing photo's here on her DA account: http://nessaluinwe.deviantart.com/ )

So because I'm in England for another year--and after that will go to university and have no time & money to travel... I've decided to do a little project!

I've just went to buy a big notebook. And in there I'm going to collect little maps and pictures and information on places I still want to visit ^^ and make it this interesting little scrapbook! Sounds fun no?

I got the idea from my design teacher, who showed us a scrapbook he had as a design student. It was filled with pictures and drawings and it looked amazing. Even more so because he made everything on top of an old hardcover book. I still want to try that with some other stuff :) but I need a bigger a4 notebook for what I'm trying ^^

Anyway I wanted to share this idea because it might give you an interestingly creative idea as well ^^

Some of the places I really really want to go at the moment (not really narrowed down to places, more countries lol)

Japan


India


Canada


New York


West Coast of America (okay I went there once but I want to go again)

Rome (same lol)

(omg my own photograph! Gasp!)

Venice (this is the fault of Cornelia funke and her amazing book Herr der Diebe)


New Zealand (Lord of the Rings ... need I say more?)


Romania


And many, many more :)

So tell me? What do you think of my little project? And where do you want to travel?

Please leave a comment below! :)
