Simplicity

I am a teenager, and I don't have a lot of money to spend. I think that's a thing 99% of all the teenagers can agree with (or you must have some really rich parents).
I do like decorations, though, and I spend a lot of time in my room, so I want my room to be nice and cosy. Oh, and I love tulips. How do I combine those factors?
Just use an empty bottle which used to contain beer, stick one single tulip in it and place it on an empty desk. Simple cosiness - I love it.

It creates some nice shadows too.

So Many Plans (But So Little Time)

I'm a teenager. I go to school. I have a small job. I am creative. I love travelling. I like taking photographs. I like drawing. I like running. I like skating. I like a million other things and I have to put all the things I love in 24 hours a day (of which I sleep at least 6). How do people do this? I can't even find the time to write a proper blogpost, so I'll just be writing about what's going on. And not much is going on. Everything that's going on at this very moment is homework. I haven't been spending a great deal of time on my homework and that's why I'm drowning in it at this very moment. I am glad that the weather is not too perfect right now because otherwise I'd be spending all my time outside (and I really don't have time for spending time at this moment). My mind is exploding.
Well, enough about school. I have recently discovered that I love Milky Chance. Everyone knows the song 'Stolen Dance' (and if you don't know it, YouTube it, I'm sure you know it) and I started digging further into the band. And I love their music. I am really easy to obsess and the result of that is that I know everything about Milky Chance now and I know all of their song lyrics (I discovered them a week ago). Now I know what happens to my time.
Well, I'll just go on writing about China and stuff for my history class because that's what I love to do (yup. No, I don't. I'm trying to motivate myself). Have a lovely day!

Decisions Decisions

I live in a country where I can make my own decisions. I am very grateful for that - but the decisionmaking part is something which terrifies me at the same time.
I am currently still in school, but the day on which I'm leaving is coming closer and closer. I'll have to make choices: what study will I start? Which city am I going to? Will I stay with my parents or will I leave home?
The fact that I have to make decisions doesn't creep me out - the fact that I know that I can make the wrong decisions creeps me out. What if I start going to a university I don't like? I can't go back to my old school, I can't go to a 'new' university. What if I'll fail? What if it's too hard?
I am aware of the fact that everybody's having a hard time making such important decisions but I want to make the right decision so badly I'm beginning to think my overthinking will make me do the wrong things. Can you follow? I know I am being vague.
I'll keep you up-to-date and in the mean time I'll just be visiting university's websites like it's my job.
