A very eventful day: rings and Rapunzel ;)
Dear reader,
A lot seems to have happened this week. On the 3rd of January my bf and I decided to kind of pull a joke on people… Well actually: he wanted a joke on his friends and family. >.< Kind of my fault though, because I actually dared him to do it hahaha. Simply because I really didn’t think he would do it. :P Decided to just go along with it for the heck of it. So we changed our facebook status to ‘engaged’. At first, from my side, no one noticed. He, however, got a lot of reactions from people either saying ‘Congratulations!’ or asking ‘Is that really true or just a joke?’ ^__^” He even fooled his mother (though that’s just the relationship the two of them have). Her reaction was: ‘Have you thought this through properly? Isn’t this too soon?... Or did an accident happen… Is she pregnant? Am I going to be a grandmother?’ So my boyfriend just responded (thinking that she would probably have picked up the joke by now), ‘Yes mom, that’s what I wanted to talk to you about’. Her reaction was a bit too positive on this one ahahaha. ‘Ok, is she going to move in with us? You guys can have the basement! Come live with mommy!… I should start buying some baby things’. ^__^” So my boyfriend just confessed to her it was a joke. She actually was a bit disappointed… His poor mother lol. Though I guess it’s a good thing to know that I am welcome there and that she thinks we are capable of raising a kid I guess… XD But no way in hell I am having kids any time soon.
So in the end we told everyone that it was just a joke… But actually, we kind of liked the facebook status which was still saying ‘engaged’…. And we started thinking about actually getting engaged. So we decided to just go window shopping for rings on Thursday (the 6th); to give ourselves an idea on what was out there.

My Christmas presents
Dear all,
It just occurred to me that I have completely neglected to write a post on the Gifts I received for Christmas! Now that just won’t do… especially not since I got some really awesome things :D.
The first person to give me a Christmas gift was my best friend. She gave me a cup and saucer with a lily bell design. Why would she give me a cup and saucer? Well, I guess that’s another one of my addictions… not only do I like cute and pretty things… I also like beautiful tea pots… and with that beautiful cups and saucers. So with this gift my best friend was definitely spot on hahaha.
(see the pictures under the cut).

I am very grateful! ^^
Dear readers,
Well since this is the last day of the year I thought that this would be a good occasion to write a post on what I am thankful for.
The people I am most thankful to are my parents. They have always supported me in everything I did, and I am truly grateful to them for it. It’s nice to know that they will always stand right behind me, no matter decisions I make (well as long as it is a wise one).
I am also extremely thankful to all my close friends (you know who you are)… They are always there for me when I need them. I am not the type of person who easily shows her emotions or for whom it is easy to share with others what she thinks. However, just knowing that there are people that are there for me when I need them really gives me strength.

My resolutions for 2011
I usually never make resolutions for the New Year… But this year I am actually going to do it since there are a few things that I really really want to change about myself. So here goes: my (what became quite a long) list of resolutions for 2011.

Why I love Christmas so much....
Dear readers,
I wanted to wish you a very merry Christmas! :D I hope you will have a wonderful time with your family and friends this weekend!
This post will be on what I like so much about Christmas. I find that people sometimes do not understand what I can be so hyped up about during this time of year. So I decided to make a small list, just because I myself never really thought about the answer.

Boyfriend and Disney ;)
Dear reader,
I know I promised to write a post on my adventures in Disney…. but I have a lot to tell right now, so that will have to wait for the next post (or 2). ;) But don’t worry: it will come. This post will be Disney related though :D!!
First of all: I now officially have a boyfriend. My mom finally gave way!!! The date on which this happened was the 17th of December (yes Friday last week). As such we also decided to just take that date as the ‘official’ starting point of our relationship. So yeah, I am really really really happy right now. It really doesn’t feel like I have only had contact with him again for about 2 months. With everyday we are getting to know each other more and more and we seem to really understand each other. I for example now don’t just get a ‘you still girl’ smile when I start rambling about Disney, or do I have to explain every time which princess was which, but he really seems to go going along with it. He even downloaded Disney movies on his computer. ^^ So that should be really really really fun!

Breaking-up and falling in love: a rollercoaster ride
Dear reader,
Finally another update! >.< yes I am very ashamed of myself for not updating for 2 whole months. But I have a very good explanation for it all: a. I have been crazily busy with school and internship and b. I broke up with my boyfriend about 1,5 month ago. The last reason has been the most important one, because it just didn’t feel right to start writing about that so soon after the breakup. So I decided to not write anything at all for a little while.
Everyone was quite shocked about the break-up. One person even said: I really thought you guys were going to stay together until the end. I used to think the same way, but a lot of things had happened between my (now ex-)boyfriend and me: no fights or anything, but we had had to deal with a lot of difficult situations and he had a lot of problems which he had to deal with (failure anxiety, trust issues, inferiority complex etc. etc.). In the irritations just kept building up. I kept telling myself: it’s ok. This or that will change as soon as this or that happens. In the end… I just got tired of waiting for all those things to change… So I decided to break up with him. Which wasn’t a very easy decision to make since we had been together for almost 4 years. ^__^”
