I love weekends, too bad it's already Monday and then tomorrow it's already February! Time flies! However, last week I had my testing week at school, so my weekend was all about doing nothing at all. My dad made me hot chocolate and croissants for lunch. There ain't no better way to start the day! Now I'm watching old photos from my holidays in France. The last photo I made two years ago and it brings nothing but good memories.
I have a tree in my backyard for many years now. It's just an ordinary oaktree. Every day, when I come home from school, I go to that tree and watch it for like a minute or something. Secretely, I hope that one day my ordinary oaktree turns into a cherrytree. Sometimes I close my eyes and imagine how my tree would look like. I have a photo of me with my oaktree; I was four years old and the tree was little and green. Maybe it's just an ordinary oaktree, but who cares? It's my oaktree and that's what makes my tree different from the other trees. Yesterday was the day I realized we were born to live high. You must never-ever forget that's not the only reason why we were born.
Ik stond midden op de dansvloer, Moet ik nog een glas wijn pakken of moet ik naar huis gaan en gewoon alles vergeten? Mijn benen zijn te slap om te dansen, het licht is te fel om te stralen, deze kamer is te klein om tegen een muur aan te gaan staan, zonder dat iemand me ziet. Iedereen om me heen danste, dronk, rookte, zong... Iedereen ging los en ik keek ernaar. Iedereen behalve ik. Rook in mijn gezicht, wijn over me heen, heupen tegen de mijne, maar besef van tijd had ik niet. Where the hell am I? Ik pakte een glas wijn en dronk hem achter elkaar leeg. Niemand had het door. Waar kwamen deze mensen vandaan, waar gingen ze heen, wat hebben ze meegemaakt, wat bracht hun hier? Ik ging naar de haven, zag schepen met de ochtendzon meevaren en zag ze weer uitvaren in het licht van de maan.
What a night! I wish everyone good luck and the best wishes for this new year! Make this year count. 'Would like to thank everyone for a fantastic 2010. It has been a wonderful, crazy, hard, fun and significant year for the four of us, and many of the people we work with. Your support has been overwhelming, and we have been caught off-guard by it a handful of times this year. Here's to 2011, and all that it will bring.' - Mumford and Sons.
