Happy New Year! And may your dreams come true this year!

/ Angie's Inspiration / Leave a comment

Hello, everyone TGIF! It seriously feels like the weeks are going by in no time. It´s almost scary…

Anyway, I wish for all of you out there to live well and dream big because that´s what I´ll certainly be doing this coming year. Regardless of what happens this year I will still strive to better myself and continue dreaming and trying to reach my goals.

So dare to dream! And while you are at it dream big. Life is too short to be standing still . Life is too precious to not have dreams. Make your own dreams come true and don´t depend on others to make your dreams a reality. Just as you should not depend on others to make you happy. You should start by making yourself happy first and realise your dreams and have the motivation to back it up!

The unequal justice system

/ Angie's Inspiration / 3 Comments

Hello everyone! Is everyone doing alright? In a few days (more like 2 days) from now it will be the start of a new year. Is everyone ready for 2016? But, oh how quick the years are passing me by. Before I know what hit me I’ll be a wrinkly old woman, lol.

Well anyway, enough of that. Today’s Opinion Wednesday I want to talk about the inequality of the justice system especially with regards to how the rich are treated in comparison to the poor or your average middle class citizen. I’m pretty sure you know where this is heading… I am also quite certain a lot of you may have already heard the name Ethan Couch before. The ‘affluenza’ brat, anyone?

Merry Christmas everyone and here’s a poem from me to you…

Hello everyone. It is Friday again and also Christmas. I hope you are enjoying your day to the fullest today! My day has been quietly hanging out and relaxing with family while eating and watching movies on the television, lol. I also spoke with my parents on Skype for the first time during the holiday season since coming to the Netherlands because we always spoke on the phone. So, it was nice being able to see them this time around. 🙂

I just wanted to say that though the year 2015 may have not been the best year for everyone, life is still as beautiful at the end of the day because of the simple fact that we are alive to see it and get the chance to hopefully see a better tomorrow.   Continue reading →

The Dutch tradition: Sinterklaas en Zwarte Piet

/ Angie's Inspiration / Leave a comment

Hello Everyone! I have been away for almost 2 weeks which seems like a long time but I am back again!! Did you miss me? 🙂

As you can probably already guess I have fixed the problem plaguing my computer and I am back to my regular twice a week postings (three postings every other week).

Today is Wednesday and you may already know what that means. It is my Opinion Wednesdays where I will  usually write my opinion on whichever topic piques my curiousity or interest at the time. Today I will be talking a little about Sinterklaas en de Zwarte Pieten (Saint Nick and the Black Petes) that is celebrated here in the Netherlands.  Now, take note: I am not trying to bash or insult anyone’s culture, tradition or anything of the sort. I am only stating my opinion and how I feel about it and that is all. Continue reading →

My computer is not really working at this moment in time

/ Angie's Inspiration / Leave a comment

Hello my blog followers and fans. I am sorry to say but my computer has been acting up these last few days and I’m not sure what to do with it.

Actually I set it back to factory default but it seems like the problem still persists: I cannot go on the internet . The other times I have set my (other) computers back on factory default the problem would be gone. However, for some reason it seems not to be working this time. (Sigh) So, I’m just writing this short post to let everyone know that if I don’t post anything for the next few days or in the next week or so, it’s because I am still not able to use my computer. Or if someone here know’s how to fix this problem then please help a girl out and tell me. Pretty please…

I do have a tablet but I do not like writing my blog posts on it. I’d rather be on my computer and there are certain things you just cannot do on a tablet. So sorry guys and be a little patient with me. Take care.

I love listening to anime opening/ ending theme songs!

/ Angie's Inspiration / 4 Comments

Hello everyone! Did you have a good weekend? I enjoyed it by resting my tired body despite still being a ‘spring chicken’ as some of the older folks might say. Even though I am still in my mid-twenties I can already feel in my body that I am no longer very young and flexible as I used to be as a young teenager. It’s so sad 😦

Anyway… I decided on my own (I’m sorry my  blog followers for sometimes being such a fickle and spontaneous person) that I would write a blog post every other Sunday (at least try to) instead of every Sunday since I am not doing a good job as it is posting every Sunday. Today is Sunday and if you guessed that today’s post is related to things that I like and love/ what I’m doing with my life, then you’ve guessed right.

Anyway, today I wanted to mention that I have gotten into the habit of listening to (Japanese) anime opening and ending theme songs. If you are familiar with an anime otaku (nerd), or if you are one yourself, then you would know what I am talking about. Somewhere along the line with your obsession or interest with anime you will get into the habit of liking the anime theme opening and ending songs. As you watch your favourite anime you would then decide to download the song on your computer or save the song on your playlist on your phone  so you will be able to listen to it wherever you go. I have been into anime for quite a long time and the more I started to love anime and my obsession grew, I also started to download the theme songs and listened to them when I had nothing better to do.
