you disappear and make me wait

I was needled thrice today (meaning: people took my blood, lols). Admittedly I volunteered, as I don't really mind needles. It also reminded me that I have to make a doctors appointment. I've not been for two years, I think, and it's time to have a check up. I think I might even have gotten a new doctor because my old one retired. It's the last day of LCM (London Collections Men), I think. And I just thought of the Burberry show, which ended some time ago. I'm going to watch it soon because I can't not watch Burberry shows, they're my favourite. Am half tempted to listen to the Breakfast Show from this morning, because according to my sources, a lot have happened as they've been off on holidays. But I don't think I'll have time for it. Heard Where The Broken Hearts Go in the store the other day, and I couldn't remember which song it was at first, but then I realised and I always get so proud when I hear that song. Can't wait to hear it live. Each winter I convince myself that I'm not as attached to One Direction anymore, and therefore I'll ease out of being such a big fan of them. But it's like I forget it's because they're on their holidays, and therefore I don't get any "stimuli". They're going on another tour soon though, so it won't be long until I'll be all overwhelmed again. Actually it's only three weeks until the tour starts. I didn't end up asking my brother to tag along with him today, because I realised that I need to do school work. Also have to read, but I don't feel like reading to be honest. If I could just avoid curriculum for awhile, that would be great. My co-student made me aware that the results for my exam will be revealed tomorrow, which is great (meaning: not great). Also, I met one of my old nurse supervisors today, which was really nice. I talked to Manja about our previous "praksis" today, and we both agreed that we honestly miss it. I was in the same building today, so I was half tempted to just go and stay there, ha. Right, I am going to watch the Burberry show now, then school work. And maybe I'll give in to my temptation and have some chocolate biscuits because I've not had one for weeks. It's crazy that I haven't caved yet.

We lay in the dark, cause we've got nothing to say. Just the beating of hearts, like two drums in the grey.

Well hello! My sister and nephew have left the house, and I'm pretty sure I've got dried slobber on my face from where my nephew insisted to press his face to mine with his mouth wide open. He's been aware that he was leaving us today, so he was a bit more cuddly than usual. In a hurry, on Wednesday, I managed to write 7.11.14 as the date. Took me a few seconds before I realised, but yeah. On Thursday a lot of people from my "praksis" group had a lecture together. We did however not know that it ended around 10:45 am, and that we would be dismissed to do whatever. Except we couldn't do whatever seeing as we had a group meeting at 1:30 pm. So we basically had some bonding time-- eating lunch together for an hour and a half, then spending the rest of the time in massage chairs. Honestly: it hurt a bit sometimes, but it was also bloody ace. And I know it was because my body has felt great ever since. I think I might have to make it to a habit. When my brother asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I answered: The Rosie Project. However he couldn't find it in the store (in English). It means I ended up ordering it online along with the sequel. I had no idea there was any sequel, so I can't wait for it to arrive. I read The Rosie Project back in summer, and I remember it being so delightful. Can't say it was any different as I reread it this week. Monchita made me aware of the fact that Marian Keyes have published a new book as well, which I was so shocked by. It means I've not been very good to read her e-mails that I'm subscribed to. I'm trying to decide whether to buy it in the stores or just order it online. But I know I'm going to the mall on Thursday anyway, so ah-- decisions. A few days ago it suddenly started snowing, so now the outsides are covered in snow. These days the weather is very unpredictable, I think. So I never really know what to expect. I can't believe that a week ago, it was still Christmas holidays. But I can't say that I feel like I started "praksis" properly this week. But I'm going to give it more effort the upcoming week. I'm going to sit down and make proper plans for the next weeks, set goals and shit. My brother is going on viewings on apartments tomorrow, and I almost asked to tag along, just because I feel like the experience is important. Haven't decided yet if I should ask. Adulthood, my friends, is both great and horrible at the same time. Anyway, have a good evening x.

I've been thinking bout' you babe

I was on my yoga mat doing exercises for my abs when I was thinking of my previous "praksis" and it occurred to me that I missed seeing blood. Mostly I just think I am missing my previous "praksis" (meaning: I miss the feeling of knowing what to do, seeing as I'm completely new at my current "praksis". Well, to be completely honest it's more than that). Incidentally this was the exact moment my phone chimed with a message from Manja, saying we'd gotten a mail about work from the boss from my previous "praksis"-- whom technically is my boss now. They do say to be careful what to wish for. It felt rather creepy, but also good. After the two days at my new "praksis" I realised that I was spoiled with pretty doctors at my old "praksis". Seriously, it's true. Anyway, second day of "praksis" and I'm trying to understand how I made it through the last one, considering it feels like I've got no spare time. It feels like the 24 hours in a day is dedicated to my education only. That does not include the next few days when Lynx and my David will be here. And if I know myself, I'm probably not going to blog much. I saw Sugar when I first walked into the wardrobe today, and at the end of my day at "praksis" as well. We even took the same bus, and she clutched my arm whilst I was terrified for the bus door. It was really nice, and I just realised now that maybe this will be our future as well. Cramming into full buses, catching up on our way to work/home from work. The end is close, it feels like. Hope you're all doing well, and that you'll have a splendid week xx.

Did you have to ruin what was shining? Now it's all rusted

Hiiiiiiiiiiii! I feel a bit like it was ages since I had blogged, but not really. Hunger Games was a bit disappointing to be honest, but I think the next and final will be better. For once I think I was all in it for the action, and then the third movie in the instalment was too much of a build-up for me. Highlight was the last bit when Katniss looked a bit like someone from a horror movie. Saturday I spent almost the whole day at Oyster's. Initially I was planning for a shorter visit, because I knew I had to spend some time to prepare for "praksis". However, neither Oyster or Mars wanted to let us go, so we ended up leaving around 11 pm. Mostly we played cards, ran around in the new house that's not quite done yet-- and scared each other. Was very amusing. It is strange to have them live in the same place, albeit we live on different edges of this place. So it still takes me twenty minutes to walk from my house to theirs. Anyway, when I got home, I promptly went to bed. I didn't sleep very well, and I had four hours of continuous sleep. Plus one hour when I dozed off later. I was very cranky when I woke up, and I'm sure you wouldn't have wanted to meet me then. Sunday was spent preparing for "praksis", although preparing including reading fan fiction and exercise, rather than reading curriculum. Today was interesting. I wasn't too nervous when I woke up this morning, and I slipped back to my normal morning routine quite easily, though I would have preferred to sleep an extra hour. I had a full day at "praksis", and it was a lot of things to soak in to be honest. And quite a few times I was approached to like I worked there, before I quickly said: "oh, I'm sorry, you have to speak with someone else". My nurse supervisor seems really nice, which wasn't too much of a surprise seeing as both Sally (she had her as a supervisor) and Kiwi (she works with her) told me good things about her. The only thing I didn't enjoy by today, is that I got a new wardrobe, which is significantly smaller than my old one, so you know-- never take wardrobe space for granted! Luckily it looks more like spring outside rather than winter, so I don't have to bundle up in that much of clothing. After "praksis" I stopped by the mall to pick up a few things, including envelopes because I realised how much money I've spent on buying one envelope at a time. Now I'm ready to write letters! I have to spend today and tomorrow reading as much of curriculum as I can, because on Wednesday my sister and my nephew are arriving at the house. Can't wait to see them! After they've gone, I have to sit down and make a proper schedule for how I'm going to spend my time until Summer, because I really have to start my bachelor. It's not one of those papers I can afford to avoid as long as I can. Though admittedly that's what I want to do. Eugh. Right, must do a bit of school work, and send e-mails and like read.

We danced all night to the best song ever. We knew every line. Now I can't remember how it goes but I know that I won't forget

Marble and I went to bed yesterday at 7:00 am and slept until 2:30 pm. I'm pretty sure that I've celebrated New Years Eve at Marble's the past three years now, so I didn't want to not do it. And my heart didn't want to leave her home alone. I specifically told her that this time we were to make the food together. When I got to her house she had already peeled the potatoes, in which I did scold her a bit. Mostly it was just a mocking bicker between us, whilst I removed my coat and boots. Her parents were dressed to the nines, partly courtesy of Marble. They were waiting to get picked up to go to a party. Whilst Marble went to gather things, I caught up with them. I also got a little lesson on how to cut a certain vegetable from Marble's mum, as it's something I've cut perhaps once of twice in my 21 years on this planet. The meal ended up to be really successful and it was bloody nice. We enjoyed some Hellenic beer along with the food, before we went upstairs to put on a movie. We watched Bridget Jones and basically mouthed along to the lines whilst enjoying dessert (brownies and ice cream with warm berries). We also drank margaritas, and "whiskey on the rocks". When midnight came, we went outside to look at the fireworks, and my personal discovery was that whiskey makes you warm. It was a really great evening, and we talked about a lot of things as we always tend to do. But it was really nice, and it felt a bit like I hadn't seen Marble for ages, when the truth is that I saw her December 23rd to give and receive presents. But then I didn't have a lot of time to stop for a chat because my dad was waiting outside in the car. Anyway, the night ended up with discussing wedding dresses. We woke up because of Marble's alarm, and I'm pretty sure the both of us would have slept even longer if it wasn't for it. Once in the kitchen, making breakfast I greeted Marble's mum with "good afternoon", a tiny bit embarrassed. She laughed at us, "rough night, huh?". We ended up watching skiing whilst engulfing the breakfast. Then we went to watch some more television. Around 5 pm I decided that it was time for me to go, seeing as I'd been there for 24 hours. Marble decided that she'd walk me, and we had a really great time walking to my house, just talking. All in all I had a really fucking great New Years celebration. However I did have a bit of a hard time to fall asleep yesterday, and I ended up having a cheese toastie at 1:00 am, and falling asleep at 2:30 am. Hopefully I'll get into a routine again. I'm going to get ready soon, because I'm going to meet Marble again, ha! We're going to watch the newest Hunger Games. I don't know if you remember, but some time back in December or summat, I watched the first movie in the series, and I thought it was quite interesting. And then we watched the the second at New Years Eve, and I said to Marble after: "dammit, now I want to watch the newest". And well, that's what we're doing today. It's one of the nice things with Marble. If I say I want to do something, she'll find a solution before I forget what I said. Right, I ought to go now. It's 2015! We're in the future (guess the reference).
