Drink coffee: do stupid things faster with more energy

About Me

Haven't really figured myself out yet, but let's just give it a try! I'm 21 years old. I have brown hair and brown eyes and I'm in jeans size 28, length 34' so I am pretty tall :-) That's it for the outside :-) For the inner me: I'm a hopeless romantic, I believe in love, I like to laugh A LOT, I like reading, I write poetry. I like to shop, go out, go to the movies. I am very fond of kissing, hugging, cuddling. I like garden-parties and walking dinners, I like staring into somebody's eyes and feel the butterflies in my tummy. I absolutely LOVE to dance! I like every kind of dancing: streetdance, classical ballet, breakdance, jazzdance, ballroom dancing, salsa, tango,... Just give me some tunes and I will move :-). Well, what else... *thinks really deep* I love bounty's, horseback riding and sailing, Coldplay, Damien Rice, Tom McRae, music boxes, yellow shoes, all sorts of tea, lipgloss and make-up in general. I LOVE fashion!!! Clothes, wrapdresses, shoes, boots, scarfs, belts, hats, sundresses, shirts, skirts, tanktops, tubetops, jeans, socks, pumps... Eeeum... Well yeah, clothes :-) I love matching swet-suits to hang around the house. I adore earrings, thunderstorms, necklaces and cellphones. I enjoy long walks on the beach even with a strong breeze. I would want to marry my nail polish and my dictionaries. Besides from being a glasses-wearing nerd I love meeting new people, I am very open and sociable, I love seeing old friends again, and feeling the same connection with them as before. I like taking a shower and wahs off the stress, unhappiness and rudeness of the day and feel warm again after a day in this cold world. I love taking a hot bath and just soak for an hour with some music. I can't stand to be cold, it makes me crabby! I love to be outside, spending a whole day indoors gives me a headache! Now, what else can I tell ....I love getting mail! Notes slid under my door, letters in the ordinary mailbox, e-mails, text messages, secretly hidden post-its... All kinds of things that prove people actually think about me :-) Makes me smile ! I love to travel, I live to travel, travel is my life ! Especially Italy... I really love that beautiful country... I love italian people for being so passionate and so crazy about nice food. I love the landscapes, because they inspire me for everything, taking pictures, writing stuff (poems or just stories) I love the warmth of the sun, I LOVE the sea, I love lying by the pool with some jazzy music and reading a romantic book... I am absolutely FOBIC for speeding cars, tramlines (terrified of getting stuck in there with my bike! Happened a few times when I was living in Antwerp!) big scary dogs, darkness, cold, ppl fighting or arguing really loudly or big crowds where I can lose my friends in and end up all alone... :-)And remember: SMILE! It's the second best thing to do with your mouth...
