Re-arranging my wardrobe
Well, it was more like getting rid of 3/4 of my clothes.. I wanted to do this for a very long time and I was hoping to find some old 'new' clothes since I don't have money to buy 'new' new clothes. Instead I threw away probably more than half of my clothes.

The Lake
Daniek and I went all the way to the lake near my place. It took a while and it was cold, but it was pretty cool too. At least we were doing something!
Love Mia!

Thoughts
I've been thinking. Yes, I've really been thinking. In fact, I've been thinking about thinking. Which is odd. My cousin got an assignment at school. (Sorry that I'm using your assignment. Don't think you'll even read this, so it won't hurt). She had to write down what she thinks from the moment she wakes up, up to the moment that she arrives at school. I think this is a very personal thing. How can you ask somebody to tell you your thoughts of more then an hour? It's outrageous (I love that word)! Maybe she'd think: ' I have..' no, I'm not even going to write that down. (Don't worry, I wasn't thinking anything weird. I wasn't going to write anything down, it was just for the effect.) It's just stupid. Your thoughts are very important, at least they are for me.
We have an assignment that is almost the same. We have a 'life vision book' that we have to fill in. Some of the questions are ridiculous! Once, we had to write down how we'd feel if we'd be in love. And our teacher is going to read it all and say if you did it well or not. It's just weird.
I've been thinking about other stuff too. I just fed our animals (our guinea-pig and rabbit). Our guinea-pig (called Sopje) is very afraid of her own door. Everytime I open or close it, she runs away like I have an chainsaw or something. I think she has developed a trauma. Yes, I really think she has. Her dear friend, Peetje (also a guinnea-pig) died several weeks ago by falling out of the cage (which is high, and outside) and being bitten by a dog. I don't blame the dog though, don't worry (I actually blame myself for not closing the door properly...). I think that Sopje saw Peetje falling into the big unknown outside the door and never coming back and now she's afraid of the door. It's sad.
I also think that I recently freed myself from my own dreadful language. I don't have to write in Dutch any more! It's so good to write and think in English. It sounds much more elegant. "Musings" is a great word, whereas "Gedachtes" sounds quite boring.
Love,
Mia

I Wish I Had...
♥ Feather Extensions
I absolutely love them. I allready have (hardly visible) highlights in my hair, but these feathers are amazing. I think that they'd add just a little more. And they're definitely my style. I saw that the person who is my second best inspiration has them, and they look awesome. You can see in this video that she's putting them in her hair. It looks super easy! Unfortunately I can't just buy things from America, and I don't have any money.
You can buy them here: Famous Feathers
♥ A petticoat for under my skirts
Not that I have that many skirts though. I have one skirt and several dresses, but I don't like them the way they are. They're so.. flat. I love wide, puffy skirts. So, I'm in need of a petticoat. I hate the fact that they're so expensive. And the fact that I don't have money for another eight days.
♥ Just a vintage shop in our neighbourhood
I think it's outrageous that there's no vintage shop near my place. None. I'll have to travel to Amsterdam, or Utrecht (yes, The Netherlands.. Dumb huh?) to find one that has some nice stuff. I can't go to a thrift store, because they just sell books (which are pretty cool though) and old cups and plates. And games for kids. And videotapes, they just stay there because no-one has a video player anymore. Well, we do, but I guess it broke. There are other cool things too (like old computers, or even older typing machines), but no vintage clothes.
Hey, I just remembered that I actually have two vintage dresses, but they're both not really every-day-dresses. I have a black dress, which I bought for christmas, and a white one. If I'd wear the white one, you'd think I'd be on my way to my wedding.
Well, enough wishing and complaining,
Love,
Mia (who doesn't have any money..)

Blogspot!
Yup, I've got a blogspot blog now. Uh-uh, I'm writing English now. I just moved to this blog because I used to have (and still have) a web-log blog. Which is Dutch, and not very popular. I didn't have any readers at all. Now I'm starting over, here, internationally. Just hoping that this wil work better for me, and that there will be people who read my messages. Let's just hope it works :)
PS: It would be lovely if you'd pass by and leave a message now and then. It helps to keep me going, you know. And don't be afraid of criticising me, I can learn !
