Ode to the Seasons

For some reason I'm never really content. When it's summer, I wish it were winter. When winter has finally arrived, I wish for warmth and light again.

Something has to be done. I want to enjoy the season I'm in.

In autumn I made this video about a walk I took on a beautiful day. I decided to make another one, only this time as an ode to winter, focussing on all the beautiful things of this season. I hope that I will appreciate the seasons more this way, in stead of pining for the next. So this is my new project, if you can call it a project: making a video for every season. I'm excited for spring and summer!

So here is Winter! Enjoy :) Let me know if you liked it? 

Oh and while you're here anyway, listen to this awesome song I'm obsessed with (see it's like summer in a song, that's how bad I am at pining for seasons that are months away):

Analogue Camera

Hello internet!

A few weeks ago I dropped my camera. Yep. That's me; always dropping everything including significantly important and expensive objects. And they always break.

I've had an analogue camera for a while, my sister bought it at a thrift store. (Along with the 2000 other analogue cameras she has) (just kidding, she has only four). So without my normal digital camera I couldn't make pictures for my blog!

I thought I'd try my analogue camera, and I think it worked out pretty well.
I tried to make sharp pictures, and these are my favourites of my most recent film:

I LOVE those gnomes casually standing there

I love ice cream. No matter how cold it is.

Love,
Mia

Lost Pictures of Snow

Hey there internet,

About a month ago my precious world called The Netherlands was white. Unfortunately I lost my SD card and therefore I lost my pictures.

Good news: I FOUND THE SD CARD

So here are the lost and late pictures of my view

Love,
Mia

Happy new year

Hey internet people!

First of all

Happy new year everyone!

I hope you have an amazing 2013 ahead of you!!

Secondly. I am so so so sorry that I haven't written anything in a few weeks. I have an excuse though. I've been ill and I've been very busy. But now I'm all better and I have less work to do!
It's actually more annoying for myself that I haven't done anything for my blog, because I basically ejoy it so much that I've missed it.

I have a few new things in my life coming up that make me extremely excited to wake up in the morning and I hope you can see my happiness in my upcoming blogposts!

Two things that are going to happen in my life are that I'm going back to school (I'm still excited at the moment, but that'll change into teenage grumpiness after a few weeks probably) and I'm going to a Sigur Ros concert!

So be sure to check that out, I'll probably make pictures and enjoy it intensely.

Because it's the new year and I'm planning on accomplishing more this year than I did last year, I'm going to make a box in which I will put notes with happy things that happen this year. For example I could write a note now, saying 'Registered for school' or something. Because that's pretty positive, right? I want to see my life more positive from now on, making sure the happy experiences I will have stay emphasised.

On the internet I found some nice inspirational examples of how this jar or box should look like:

For my jar I'm just using fun quotes that make me happy.

While I was making this, I remembered why I never do crafty things like this. The blue paper didn't stick to the glass, I couldn't find a black thick pencil and my last quote didn't fit..

Anyway I'm pretty happy about the way it turned out eventually.

Wow my camera suddenly decided to lose it's ability to be a camera.

But you get the general idea. (I suck at crafting)

In 2013:

♥ I will hopefully start two schools

♥ I will hopefully successfully finish one of them
♥ I will see Sigur Ros perform live, and who knows I'll maybe even meet them!
♥ I will meet a lot of new people and make new wonderful friendships
♥ I will be who I want to be, act the way I want to act and look the way I want to look

♥ The 50th anniversary of Doctor Who will be awesome-possum!

♥ Catching Fire in theatres
♥ Iron Man 3 in theatres

♥ Thor 2 in theatres

♥ The Desolation of Smaug in theatres ( BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH AND MARTIN FREEMAN &co.)

♥ And probably a lot more films in theatres..

So as you can see, I expect lots of awesome things!

I hope you have an amazingly good new year,

Love,
Mia

The Seasons

Every time a new season has begun, I desire an other. Right now it´s fall in the Netherlands. It´s raining all the time and the trees are letting their leaves float towards the ground. It´s a nice season, everyone stays inside watching TV while there´s a storm going on outside. I really love the sound of the rain ticking on the window and the wind whistling through the trees taking the dead leaves with them on faraway adventures. It´s simply beautiful to see the leaves turn red, orange or yellow. The forests have the most amazing colours in the fall season.
Still I just long to see the first bright snowflakes whirl from the dark sky. I want to see all the branches sparkling white, blinding against the bright blue sky on a cold winter´s day. I want to take pictures of all the beauty around us during the bitter cold season.
Thus I have looked up the pictures of last year´s winter and decided to post them.

When fall is at it´s best, I´ll post some coloured leaves too!

Love,
Mia
