Sziget festival

Hey there,

Sorry for my long absence but I have been to Sziget festival in Budapest!
It was amaaaaaaazing; best week ever.

I went with 3 of my best friends and we stayed there for a week. We visited Budapest which was beautiful! I didn't expect that much of the city but it was so pretty! We've also been to a spa in Budapest which was gorgeous too (I'll show photos later!).

The festival itself was awesome too; I saw soooo many good bands, we partied 'till the sun came up every day and all the people were really nice! The food was also really good and not expensive!

We saw the Roots, the XX, Steve Aoki, Two Door Cinema Club, Snoop Dogg, Borgore, Flux Pavillion, Crystal Fighters, DJ Fresh, The Killers, Sum 41, the Stone Roses, Rizzle Kicks, Fink, Bonaparte, Kakmaddafakka, Gyo Kretz and a few more bands :)

Here are some photos I made with my fisheye camera:

Hello Holland

Yesterday I went back to Holland. Ik was a long trip (by car, boat, train, taxi) but I got home at dinnertime, which was good timing! Two of my best friends went to my house to surprise me, verysweet!

After I had dinner with my family, I went into town to have a couple of drinks with some friends.
Today I am gonna see the rest of my friends and I am so excited, cause I missed everyone so much!!

Later this week I will post some photos of London and tell a little bit more about my last day.

Brighton

Hey there,


This weekend I have been finishing up my schoolwork, cause tomorrow will be my last day at Middlesex University AND my last day in London! It's a shame that I already need to leave..


I actually need to pack my bags right now so I will upload a further description of my weekend Wednesday!

But for now, a photo that I made in Brighton today:

Olympics

Hellooo there,
Sorry for not posting the last couple of days but I haven't been at home that much!
Thursday I went to the Olympic torch finale @ Hyde Park with my steph-sister Eva. The sun was shining, there were 65.000 people and there were bands playing all the time; the atmosphere was really good!


The performances I liked most were Rizzle Kicks, Eliza Doolittle, a dancing team wich I forgot the name of (I'll try to remember and post something about them later) and Dizzee Rascal.





Yesterday I've been to school, where we had a portfolio and performance workshop. I performed Dusty Springfields 'Son of a Preacher Man'; one of my ultimate favourite songs to sing,
After uni I had a couple of drinks with three guys of my course, wich was fun :) In the evening I watched the opening of the olympics on television with my family, I though it was amazing! Afterwards I went to Fabric with Eva, wich was epic! I loved the building, the music, the people.. everything!


And now, well.. I just woke up an hour ago or so hahaha and today I'm finishing up some schoolwork.


:) x


(By the way: the reason that I'm not posting a lot of pictures is because I'm only taking pictures with my fisheye camera wich is analogue, so I need to develop the photos and that takes 8 days)

Fisheyeee

As I said earlier today, I'm gonna post a few of the fisheye photos :)
Here they are:

Goodbye

Hello there,
At Monday Pieter and I first went to Picadilly Circus to check out the Abercrombie & Fitch there and to pick up my fisheye photos that were developed (I will post them later today). Then we went to the Museum of Popular Music in the O2 and we went to the British Music Experience there. I really liked it, you could see the development in music very well and they had a lot of cool stuff like guitars and clothes from big musicians like Queen, the Beatles, the Who, Amy Winehouse, Arctic Monkeys etc.
After the museum we had dinner at a very nice Japanese restaurant in China Town. Then we went to Southbank, because we wanted to get in the Starflyer (a carousel of 40 meters!). That was pretty scary but amazing! We could see the Millenium bridge, london eye, big ben etc from above so that was great. Afterwards we went home and watched Harry Potter 2 :)


Yesterday Pieter went back home again and I went to school. We had an aural test wich went really good so that was a pleasant surprise :) Today I'm going to Alexandra Park to read books about writing essays about music, so that I can hopefully finish my essay tonight. The essay I am writing is about Etta James. And especially about her album At Last! (1961).


Here is a picture Pieter and I took when we were at Trafalgar Square:

Another day in London

Hey there,
Yesterday Pieter and I went to Camden. I bought a couple of little presents for my friends and after we also visited Proud Gallery (you should all check that out!) we had an afternoon tea at a teahouse at the end of the stables at Camden. I forgot the name but I'll look it up and mention it later, cause it was a really nice place!

Presentsss

Afternoon tea @ Camden

Platform 9 3/4

After that we went to Kings Cross to see platorm 9 and 3/4, from the Harry Potter movies. Then we went to Covent Garden where we saw a couple of street artists perform. We walked to Leicester Square to the HMV there to buy two Harry Potter movies (we were really in a Harry Potter mood haha) that we saw later that night. Before we watched the movies we had dinner at Yo Sushi, what was also very nice. 


We are not quite sure what we're doing today, but we'll see!


See yaaaa x

Last couple of days

Hey there!


So.. Friday I've been to school. We had a lecture about music promotion and managing, wich was very interesting. That night I picked up Pieter at the trainstation. 
Today we've been hanging out in London, visiting the usual spots; denmark street, oxford street, regent street, carnaby street, leicester square, trafalgar square, milenniumbridge, southbank....
After that we went to a bandnight at The Enterprise where we met up with Anna, Sam and Matin (friends from Middlesex University). Here is a picture of me with Anna & Sam:

It's Sam's birthday today sooo: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Tomorrow Pieter and I will spend the day at Camden: whoohoeeeee!

18th birthday

Hey there,
Yesterday was my 18th birthday and I had a wonderful day!
I had breakfast with my mum and afterwards we went to Camden. After a little bit of shopping there, we had lunch with my uncle. Later that day we had an afternoon tea with two of my friends from Holland and in the evening we went out.


Here are a couple of polaroids of that day:
