My Music

Okay, then I don’t write for like 10 days, and then I write two days in a row. But I don’t care. I already had this inspiration yesterday, but yesterday’s blog was already too long. I don’t blame you if you haven’t read it all.

I actually have to read a book for school, but I don’t want to. It’s the most boring book I’ve ever read. Okay, it isn’t, but it’s close. I don’t want to read, so I don’t. So I am listening to Rihanna’s music (from the time I still liked her).

But now about my music. I play the saxophone, but that’s not what I meant. I sing, but you can’t say I have any talent. But something I really like is writing songs. Not that I’m all that good at it, but once I wrote a song about a boy I liked, and that is actually a pretty nice song! And also, I wrote a really funny song, called “The Revenge Song”. I’ll give you some of the lyrics.

“You Keep Me Here”

If loving you is a crime,

Well I am guilty,

Blame it to the power of love,

Attraction has never been missing,

I feel on the clouds when you look at me,

And my heart skips a beat when you talk to me,

Like a star that’s shining in my sky,

You make me feel better baby

It’s just your sexy hair,

Your eyes blue as heaven,

And your smile that’s sweet as sugar candy,

Your laugh, it makes me smile,

And when you talk, I can’t breathe,

My love, you keep me here,

Okay, that’s not the whole song, but it’s just the second verse with bridge and chorus.

“The Revenge Song (I’m Not Drunk)”

I’m walking down the street,

With my 7 inch heels in my hand,

Because they were hurtin’ my feet,

I have a sore head,

Been thinking about the meaning of life,

Not knowing what to do about it,

Been drinking all night,

But when they ask me:

No I’m not drunk, I just had little too much,

But the problems were starting to ruin my life,

It was like my mind collapsed,

Just had to go out, had to go out,

I start to talk to complete strangers,

While my friend’s trying to get me a cab,

But I tell her I’d rather walk,

I’m going to his house, wanna shout aloud,

You hurt me, you hurt me bad,

You made my life miserable,

I have nothing to live for.

And you girl, you’re probably there,

Lying in the bed I used to make,

You hurt me, you hurt me bad,

Okay, that’s pretty extreme. I wasn’t drunk when I wrote it, in fact, I’ve never been drunk in my life. I just thought it was cool to write about…

Well, I guess that was enough for today, just wanted to share my music!

10 days out of my life.

And so there’s another blog from me! Ten days have past and lots of things have happened since my last blog. I’ve partied, I’ve thought, I’ve hated, I’ve hoped, I’ve liked. So now I’m going to start telling you about that with my favorites in the background: Danity Kane.

I’ll start at the beginning, the least interesting, but whatever. After the “good mood-Sunday”  came a boring Monday, a terrible Tuesday and an even worse Wednesday. The “good” in my mood started to fade away until it was all gone.

But then came Thursday, first day of holiday. One of my friends and I were going to go shopping, and so we did. I bought a really nice t-shirt, and a cardigan I had wanted for weeks. I bought clothes for upcoming carnival. And I bought lots of stupid things. It was a fun afternoon, it was worth 15 kilometers by bike!

Thursday evening was really cool. There was something like a prom at my school, but then for carnival. You know: with the crazy outfits. I had a cool night, and suddenly everybody started to kiss (except me of course…).

Then came Friday. Friday was not very spectacular. Then Saturday. That was a big disappointment: I was going to go out at first night of carnival, but my best friend was ill, and without her there’s no fun in carnival. So: TV-series marathon!

Sunday was a lot better. My best friend felt a little better, so after the carnival parade at our village we went to her place to get dressed for party! We went out, I had a really fun night. And also, something I just need to mention. The guy I talked about in my last blog: there’s a fifth reason why I shouldn’t like him: HE HAS A GIRLFRIEND! At last week’s party he already had a girlfriend, but yet he was flirting with two girls. LOSER.

But that wasn’t what I was talking about.I was talking about Sunday night. We first went to some girl’s place to chill before going to the dancing, because otherwise we wouldn’t be out for long. There we already had fun, but then we had to go to the dancing by bike! I had to go on someone’s baggage carrier and it almost killed me (alright, that’s a little exaggerated, but it was scary). The guy on whose bike I sat was not very good at cycling, and he had a few beers. It was so damn scary that we had make a little switch: me at Iris’s baggage carrier and the guy at Iris’s boyfriend’s baggage carrier. We made it. The rest of the night I had lots of fun and I was already looking forward to the next day, because we had planned to go out then too.

But plans changed, unfortunately. My best friend didn’t feel well, and my parents wouldn’t let me go without her, so there went my Monday carnival night. I think I walked around with a grumpy face the whole day.

Tuesday, yesterday, was much better. My best friend was better again so we went to The Apollo with some other people. A really cool club. After I had three drinks, the others decided to go back to the dancing we had gone on Sunday. We went by bike, me on the baggage carrier of one of the guys (no, not the cutest one and not the scary one!). But when we were there for ten minutes my mom already came to pick us up. Well, at least we had a good time at The Apollo!

And today, at last, wasn’t all that special. Just an ordinary day. Nothing special happened… yet.

No, just kidding. I’m not going out tonight so nothing will happen…

Welcome To The Good Life.

Yeah! I’m in a very good mood :). Reason number one: just three more days of school and then: HOLIDAY!! Finally, after too much classes and other stupid school stuff. The three days that are left aren’t even days where we actually have lessons: we’ve got some stupid project.

Reason number two of my good mood is that I really had a good time last night (and this morning xD). I was going to a party, together with my best friend. I got to know very interesting people. Which is by the way what TWO horoscopes had predicted for me. I mean, usually I don’t believe in that kind of things… but this was interesting :).

And something else about the party: there were boys boys boys xD! Oohh! There were no guys for me, if you know what I mean. I mean, my best friend and her friend tried to set me up with some guy.. but then he went outside to smoke :|. There also was this other guy that was trying to get my attention (WOW, catch this on film! A guy that’s trying to get MY attention. That’s like the first time in my life!) But the thing is, or actually the three things are: 1. He’s not tall (he’s shorter than me) 2. He isn’t that handsome (yeah, like I can get any handsome, but whatever). 3. He smokes. 4. He was also flirting with someone else.

You know what also was really fun about the party: we were sitting on a two-seat couch, with ten people! And: I sat on the lap of three different guys! Okay, one is with someone else and the other ones were the two I described before.

Oh, I completely forgot the reasons for THE GOOD LIFE. (:

The third reason is: I’ve been listening to happy music all day.

Fourth reason: NEW SEASON OF MTB!! Making the band is like my favorite MTV show!

Well, I guess this is it. I’ll go check MSN.

Dreams…

Hi!!

Right now, I’m listening to my new CD with all my favorite songs on it. And what do you think of this: I just found out, after two years, where the shuffle button of my stereo is xD. (What do you mean, not technical?)

Well, since my blog is called “Laurie’s Life in Music”, I will have to talk about music, right? I’m a big fan of Ne-Yo, but you knew that if you had read my previous blogs :). I’m also a big fan of Keyshia Cole. She has one of the greatest voices ever. I always dream to be like her, but unfortunately I can’t sing.

When I was young, I always thought I would become a singer in a girl-band, but since I’ve found out that you need singing talent for that, I dropped the dream. I also had another dream when I was young (you gotta stick to reality, right?). I wanted to be a teacher. How I got to that, I don’t know, but I think it was because everyone wanted to be a teacher. Well, it was either teacher or hairdresser.

At the time, I don’t know what I want to become “when I grow up”. I mean, I’ve got interests, but it’s not like I know what I want exactly.

I also have a not-realistic dream, but it’s kind of embarrassing. You know, just in my mind I want to become a (don’t laugh) music producer! That is something that really seems cool to me. Not that I’ll ever become one, but, you know, you can always dream!

Ooh… Superhuman is on (by Chris Brown ft. Keri Hilson). I got like four Keri Hilson songs on my new CD! It’s not that I’m that big of a fan of hers (the four songs are the only songs I know of her). But it’s just that I like those songs. (Superhuman, Energy, Return The Favor & Turnin’ Me On).

Well, now it’s time to stop writing. I got like three MSN conversations, and I don’t have any inspiration anymore. So I guess I see you next time!

xx Laurie

My Weekend

It started with Friday, 3 PM. The end of my class. I was really happy it was finally weekend. When I was home, I was just chillin’. But not for long: I had to go to the fanfare. I mean, I like it, but it’s always so long. And besides that: my best friend wouldn’t be there because she had a party. But after I survived that I was so tired I went to bed really soon.

My Saturday was as always: getting up at 10 o’clock, breakfast, and then behind the computer. Doing that until I realized I had to do a lot of homework. In the worst mood I got upstairs, in my mind cursing my Dutch teacher because she always gives as much homework as could be. After I had finished half the homework I thought: tomorrow. Yeah right.

My afternoon was boring, as always. Then the evening came. That wasn’t much fun either: watching TV series. Okay, the series are always nice to watch, but I can’t say I had lots of excitement.

So, my Sunday. That was a lot better. I was planning to go shopping with my best friend and so we did. We were going to shop crazy clothes for carnival (something we always celebrate where I live). I had the craziest mood ever, laughing all the time. Not normal. We went for a smoothie with apple cake at the mall but we got pear cake (something I really hate). I guess that’s when my mood began. As I said to my friend: They put something in my cake! We were all crazy, walking really far to go for a milkshake at the Mc in the Outlet Center because a friend of my friend works there. In the end he didn’t talk to us because his boss was around.

So much for my Sunday afternoon. By the way, I only bought those crazy clothes (we’re going as cowgirls) and CHOCOLATE! However, in the evening I got on MSN talking with my BFF again… And then of course at half past eight: The Ghost Whisperer, twice :). And that was the end of the weekend, and now it’s Monday afternoon, after a whole day at school…

Looking forward to the next weekend :).
