Well hello. It has been over 2 years since I posted anything. I wrote a few posts in between with updates, but never published them. It has been a rollercoaster to say the least. I started this blog to spread positivity and to push myself in the right direction. I...

Positivity! It has a lot of angles and it can make you feel very good, or very bad. This post is about how to be positive without neglecting your feelings or burying your head in the sand. It's one of the posts I've been writing on in my vacation. I've had...

Well hello. I haven't posted in weeks. WEEKS! And I feel awful about it. But. Last week was spring break. There were 6 weeks between the Christmas holidays and spring break, and those weeks are known for A LOT of tests. We have these national tests called Cito tests, and...

While I'm working on other longer posts in the meantime, here's a post about how I'm experiencing my job by now. I have now worked 4 weeks before the holidays and 3 weeks after the holidays. The last 3 weeks went by so much faster than the first 4! It...

For years, I've had the Irritable Bowel Syndrome. You might have heard of that before. Although you would think it's a disease like any other, it's not. It isn't a disease, it means: something is (really) wrong with your bowels and nobody has a clue what to do about it....

The continuing story… New study, 2016 – 2017 I finished the trauma therapy in August 2016 and after this summer, I started a new study. It took me a long time to make this decision, but I decided to do a practical study instead of going to University. I’ve always...

Hi. Not posted anything in the last 7 days.. o.0 I thought I would write as if there was no tomorrow as soon as the vacation started, but no. There are so many other things going on! 😭 Saturday - finished tons of school work because I was very much...

Christmas, 2014 My sister is yelling at me and my brother is running upstairs because he can’t handle the stress. She says I’m a big liar and that I caused a lot of stress and broken relationships in our family. She screams that she can’t believe how fast I felt...

Ever since I had Pinterest in about 2011, I've had this Pinterest board called "If I ever have kids". I pin everything that I want to keep for when, well, I have kids. When I made it, I knew there probably weren't going to be any kids soon. I was...

In my first guest blog I promised to tell more about my eating disorder and my recovery attempts. So, this blog will be about how and why I developed this stupid illness, called anorexia. My eating disorder story Happy childhood Before I turned 15, I lived a happy life. I...

Let me introduce myself! If you know Bonnie personally or read her about page, you’ll know she has been in a clinic abroad to fight her anorexia 3 years ago. Seriously, Bonnie is amazing. She started this blog and a few days later she got a new job as a...

In my teenage years, I was mostly depressed. It felt like it would never end and I couldn't imagine life any different. I felt hopeless. Now that I'm a lot older, I can see that there was so much in front of me that would make my life better. So...

So I'll begin tomorrow and I'm fricking dying. I think this is a great opportunity to write about how pants shitting scared I am. There is no perfect recipe on overcoming fear, but it kind of works the same for everything you are scared of. There is only one way...

Yes, I have a job. And it came out of nowhere. Last Sunday, my mother-in-law told me there was an immediate vacancy at the primary school where she works. I had been thinking about it before but I decided to wait to see how things would end with my blog...

Failing is one of my greatest fears. It's what I try to avoid all the time. I'm scared of trying new things because the chance for failure is high and even though I know it's near to impossible to nail something at the first try, I feel like I'm not...

Our diet culture. It has so many angles, you can't even oversee it anymore. Infinite diets for infinite purposes. Diets to lose weight, to gain muscle, to make a statement (vegan), to prevent allergic reactions, and many more. Some are healthy, some are not. There are quite some things that I...

Did you know that sleep is one of the most important things in our lives? It's as important as food and oxygen. And still a lot of people don't get enough of it, including me.. 😐 Getting enough sleep benefits us in so many ways, but still a lot of...

Ever since I can remember, we had cats. We took homeless cats from Spain, adopted cats from friends and we had a litter occasionally. There hasn't been a time ever when we had no cats while I was alive. We've never had dogs, so I've just been raised as a...

There is this scale. I call it the 'giving a f*ck scale'. It goes from giving no f*ck at all to giving too much f*ck. Giving too much f*ck is also known as being highly sensitive, a term that is well known to many. To get a better understanding of...

It's no surprise that Instagram has become one of the most influential sources of information in the past years. Thousands of people became really famous by selling their brand, their body, their lifestyle. The better your life looks on the outside, the more followers you get. For some reason, we...
