My friend is still sick


Last friday we went langlaufing. It's just like skiing, but than without a mountain. And we were going up a hill and everything was covered in snow and the sky was totally white because of the clouds and there were a few leaveless trees around us and the only thing made by human-beings we could see was a church with a cemetery surrounding it and then suddenly my friend was like "This is kind of scary. It feels like all of the colors have been pulled out of the world and never going back again. And the human beings are going to forget the colors and after a while they will fade away because of it." she said
And then I said "you're sick." 
"Welcome to my brain." she said. "And then all the people will turn into zombies and they will eat each others corpses."

Now we all know how the world will end

Imagine Dragons


Have you ever heard of Imagine Dragons? Well... I hope you have and if not it's your lucky day. This is my favorite band and I heard their song (It's Time) on the radio the other day (I already knew the band) and I loved hearing it on the radio so much that I decided to write a post on it. (I heard it on Q-music the favorite music channel of my mom. My favorit is MNM) Anyway here is their song It's Time


And my personal favorite Radioactive. The clip is about stuffed animals fighting.

Thanks for reading and make sure to check out both their albums

5 tips do a great powerpoint presentation


I have a powerpointpresentation Friday and I'm doing it on obsessive-compulsive disorder. So I decided to write a post on how to have a great presentation.


  1. Use Powerpoint this can be your secret cheat sheet if you use it correctly and it gives a more visual aspect to your fellow students and you teacher which is always a good thing. So if possible, use powerpoint 
  2. ALWAYS look at your audience. Most people (including me) are very shy and don't like presentations or looking people directly in the eye, so you can also just look right above their head and that way the audience will feel more connected to your presentation which also gives better grades!
  3. Time well. If your teacher said that it should take 20 USE your 20 minutes a fully as you can if you have 2 minutes more or less it doesn't matter. So at home take your phone use your stopwatch and practice your presentation. Say EVERYTHING. Don't be like I'll just add 1 minute for explaining that picture, because I don't feel like explaining it now. Just do it!
  4. This may sound like a strange tip but DON'T stand in front of your powerpoint. I have seen some presentations where the speaker was that nervous that he/she stood in front of his Powerpoint which made it rather useless to use powerpoint.
  5. Explain a lot. When you started researching your subject you maybe didn't know what for example a hypothalamus is, so don't assume that your classmates will know what it is
If you're going to do a presentation good luck.

3 things I'd be lost without


I know this title comes from my 18 blog post idea's list. I am allowed to use my own idea's right? As the title says I'm going to write about 3 things (NOT people) in my life I can't live without.

1. My cellphone
I'm just addicted to this thing. I text 24/7 with my friends and even with my grandma. I can't live without this little thingy that came to rule my life since I was 12. You never see me without my cellphone, the first thing I do when I wake up is check my cellphone if I haven't got any messages, and text someone (usually my boyfriend), it's also the last thing I do when I go to sleep. You can really say that I am addicted. My cellphone always sleeps next to my iPod in my bed.
2. My notebook
Here I write my stories in in the first place and sometimes also blog posts if I get an idea at school. I write it in this because then I can correct everything when typing it into a post for my blog.
3. My laptop
Actually I hate my laptop, but I couldn't live without it. This is the only way I can write blog posts properly and share my stories. I really need a new one. In the beginning I started blogging to improve my English which I didn't exactly need according to my English teacher she says "we haven't learned that tens yet Tess" all the time when I use the present perfect continuous. Anyway I couldn't live without this wreck.

My friends are all sick in their own sick ways

All of my friends are sick in their heads. All in their own sick, but yet not scary ways. But today I was talking to two friends of mine and we were talking about Metal music. I turned out to be the only one who wasn't familiar with this genre and they were talking about this band called "Avenged Sevenfold" and one of them said they have this song with this awesome hilarious music video so I asked which one they meant and they said "a Little Piece of Heaven", so I just watched the music video and it's kinda funny, but you have got to be sick to find it funny when you watch it for the first time (or maybe it was just because the high quality speed of my computer which allows you to watch a 8 minute video in over half an hour) I just mean this story line is SICK. You just HAVE to be sick to make that story up. Oh my girlfriend is dead. What if I eat her heart? Anyway watch the video below. IF YOU DARE!
Anyway I really like the song itself.

How awkward grandma can be of help

I bet most people recognize the next situation. You're at the supermarket with your grandmother, and your grandmother seems to be in a tactless mood that day. And suddenly you see the guy from school you've had a crush on since forever. Your grandma asks you very loud "Is that the guy you keep on talking about ALL the time? I thought he'd be cuter than that.", and to make it even wore she points at him. Awkward situation isn't it? What if it turns out into something good?

With one of my friends in school it did. She went through this situation like everyone would, and it was very awkward. But the good part is: the next day at school the guy came to talk to my friend. Let's call her Jess and the boy Mike to make it easier to explain. He came to talk to Jess and she apologized for the lack of tact her grandmother had the day before and he said that it was fine and stuff like that. And then this dialogue started.
"Well... I've actually wanted to ask you out for a very long time but I never had the courage. But now I know that you like me... Will you go out with me?" Mike asked he looked very hopefull
Suddenly my friend started freaking out completely and she said yes. I mean she acted like he just asked her to marry him. They were both very shy for a few mins after that. So they went to the cinema the next wednesday and now they have been in a relationship for almost 6 months by now. They're a great couple.
