2. Spend New Year's in New York

3. See Marielle Gras every year

4. Attend New York Fashion Week

5. Go shopping without worrying about sizes

6. Have my hair in a pixie cut

7. Attend the redhead festival in Amsterdam

8. Be known for something extraordinary

I encourage everyone to do a similiar list. 

Love song of the week

Love song of the week

Love out of Lust by Lykke Li

LYRICS:

Rather die in your arms, than die lonesome
Rather die hard, than die hollow
The higher that I climb
The deeper I fall down
I'm running out of time
So let's dance while we're waiting

We will live longer than I will
We will be better than I was
We can cross rivers with our will
We can do better than I can
So dance while you can
Dance cause you must
Love out of lust
Dance while you can

Rather live out a lie than live wondering
How the fire feels while burning
For life is like a flame
And the ashes for wasting
So honey don't be afraid
To dance while we're waiting

We will live longer than I will
We will be better than I was
We can cross rivers with our will
We can do better than I can
So dance while you can
Dance cause you must
Love out of lust
Dance while you can

So tired of waiting
Come baby
So tired of waiting
Come baby

We will live longer than I will
We will be better than I was
We can cross rivers with our will
We can do better than I can
We will live longer than I will
We can cross rivers with our will
We can do better than I can
So dance while you can
Dance cause you must
Love out of lust
So dance while you can

Love out of lust
Love out of lust
Love out of lust

I wish you a Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas world, I hope you have a blessed weekend with your family and friends.

Posts will resume as normal from Monday.

A Life By Design...

Meet Kris, a Graphic Designer, from Manchester.

Her work is actually incredible.

I love her use of colour in the most unconventional way.
Her art is just beautiful.

Love song of the week

Love song of the week

Your song by Elton John (Ellie Goulding version)

LYRICS:

It's a little bit funny
This feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money
But boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where
We both could live

So excuse me forgetting
But these things I do
See I've forgotten if
They're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is
What I really mean
Your's are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

And you can tell everybody,
This is your song
It may be quite simple but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you're in the world

If I was a sculptor
But then again no
Or girl who makes potions in a traveling show
I know it's not much but
It's the best I can do
My gift is my song and
This one's for you

Ohh [x8]

And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you're in the world

a Happy story with a sad ending...

Firstly i want to apologize for not posting for two weeks but i was in Germany on my exchange, my exchange partner just so happen to be one of my best friends, my twin, Marielle Gras. Posting will now resume as normal

I arrived at Frankfurt airport very skeptical about her family, I mean no one can match up to the Van Zyls but as I got there i felt so welcomed by the family and it felt like no time has passed since i saw Marielle.

After a half a hour drive we arrived in her hometown Ingelheim. I am not gonna spend time writing how beautiful her town is... (the picture will explain that)... instead i want to express my love for my second family and second home country.

Germany is just beautiful and I know i will definitely spend a year of my life living there.

Marielle and her family are one of the greatest people i have ever met. they were there for me when i needed them and they created so many memories for me. i hope one day to repay them for everything they have done for me.

Ich Liebe Dich Gras Familie
