Yes, yet again I have created a new account, a new blog basically. I also posted all my previous post because well simply, I fucked up my old one. I destroyed the layout somehow and I can’t fix it. So instead of being difficult I just made a new one! From today I will post only on this blog, enjoy!
Now, I heard of the movie Bucket list and remembered that in a previous blog that I’ve abandoned I had my own little bucket list. So why not post it? Some goals might actually come a bit closer now, but I won’t say anything about that until it actually is going somewhere.
Behold my bucket list:
Get a degree in 'something'
Write a book
Learn Japanese
Get readers for my blog
Visit Egypt
See the Northern light
Make love under the stars
Visit 'The Black Forest'
There might be more to come, who knows? I’m still young and I want to do lots of things! If I can think of something, or run into something, this post will be updated!

Get a degree in ‘something’
I want to feel like I actually achieved something in my life. When I figured out what suits me, what seems fantastic and what I am good at, I want to study it and get my degree, it doesn’t matter how long it takes. I’ve been looking for internet study / home study. Psychology always interested me, part time study takes almost 8 years, according to the website. I don’t want to start just something; I have to be sure about myself and the subject first. I want to successfully finish what I started. From what I remember is that I don’t really have the patience to sit and study. I learn better from ‘doing’ it. I am sure that if I put my mind to it, that I can do it. But for now, let’s find out what I actually want to do.
*~~~*~~~*
Write a book
I’m working on this. No, I did not start yet. But I have a book ready to read; “How to write a damn good novel’. It has some good reviews, so when I am over in England, got a good job, settled, everything is going well, I want to start. I’m already busy with putting idea’s, which are floating around in my head, on paper. Maybe you, my faithful readers, will read a great, fantastic book one day, and find out one day that it has been written by a blogger whose posts you read.

Learn Japanese
Now… where did this come from you ask? I have to say, I always loved foreign languages, always been good at it, pick up things easily and well, I only want to be a
ble to speak and understand it. Writing is not that important but hey, if I got time left from all the other things I also want to do, who knows?! Ok ok, for real now. If you’re a reader of mine you know I watched ‘The last Samurai’ recently. I just want to learn it, it seems cool.
*~~~*~~~*
Get readers for my blog
Anybody any idea who to get more readers? Maybe I got them who knows, speak up my readers! Let me hear from you! Quite funny, I found out that JJ used to blog but stopped for some reason, maybe he just got bored of it, he just couldn’t off think why he stopped. So I advised him to start again. So I got another blog that I can read when I’m at work and bored and well, it helps to gather your thoughts through putting them on ‘paper’. He agreed so he started again as well! It’s odd how close we got in just a few days. He’s a really nice guy, a good friend. I added his links on the right, for those who are interested in his blog. But to get back to more readers, I’m already filling in the labels, so that might help. If you got any more ideas, let me know

Visit Egypt
Since I was a little girl Egypt always been one of my mayor interests. I don’t know where it comes from but it is so n
ice to hear what a wonderful civilisation they had when the rest of the world was still far behind. My love for Egypt even got bigger through reading books, watching an awesome movie called ‘Stargate’ which I bought on DVD later. Egypt has something mythical and mysterious over itself. I don’t mean the Egypt as we now know it, but the ancient Egypt. So basically, I don’t want to visit Egypt, but I want to visit the Pyramids and all the old secrets from ancient times that have to do with it
*~~~*~~~*
See the Northern light
I’ve seen it a few times on TV, mostly on the Discovery Channel I think. My granddad, the first one that past away, saw it one time when he was young, in his own backyard here in the north of Holland. I don’t think I will ever be so lucky so I have to travel for it. Why do you want to see it? It is one of nature’s wonders, one of the most beautiful things you can lay your eyes on. It’s fascinating
*~~~*~~~*
Make love under the stars
Hehe, I don’t think I have to explain this one. I’m just a big fool for romance. I don’t know where, when but it will happen. I hope with L. If he is up for it!

Visit the black forest in Germany
I’ve read a book a while back, and it just spoke to me. It is a wonderful story about Germany that wasn’t a whole country yet, but divided in little parcels of land, I think it is called a Duchy. Please correct me if I am mistaken. It is a great romance story, with a really strong plot. Unfortunately it’s been written by a Dutch author and I don’t think there are translations in the world. The book just made me want to visit one of the oldest forests in Europe, maybe even the world.
at I am spending a lot of money on credit so I thought I just might as well get a contact phone. I went with Orange, something called Raccoon 35. Meaning I get 700 minutes to call and 100 txt messages free, also calling to landlines is always free. What is even better I get a brilli ant looking phone, which does all the basic stuff I need and not to much off those new technical stuff (I don’t need it, it’s a bloody phone!). Also with this deal I get an Daewoo LCD TV and a DVD player. Now we don’t need a DVD player but I looked that LCD TV up on the interweb and so far the only thing I found about the Daewoo LCD TV are a 42 and a 46 inch. Awesome!! Bring on the TV, 28 days after I connect to orange, which is hopefully tonight. 
autiful recordings. But nothing to much over the top, like star trek with their transporter and things. Although, please nothing bad about my beloved star trek! Ah.. I admit it, I am a big nerd, I just got no glasses and no dorky face. I dress stylish and I got I consider myself lucky with a few good friends around me. So well, where does this sci-fi love come from? I blame my dad, he pulled me into Star Trek and all that sort of things, and now I am hooked. His fault, not mine. I got this send by an email to me from my co-worker, how sweet!
don’t know why but I really would like to write a book. I don’t know what about, just writing an interesting book, maybe even a bestseller. I not even figured out the genre yet. When ever I think I’m having a good idea I just write it down, read it back a few days later and decide that it is a pile of crap, and toss it.
I know I haven’t been blogging for long but I can’t even get readers, so how on earth did I get the silly idea that I’m able to write a good book? Hm, I know, I am going to try to write a short story, and then you all can tell me what you think! If it’s really horrible, then I know I need to improve, a lot. I got a little book called ‘How to write a damn good novel’. I’m nearly through it, but I got stuck somehow and not looked at it for over a month. I should finish that and then try and amuse you all!
I’m feeling a bug coming on… and my parents are here easter weekend. Come on bug, do it now so I’m better before next Thursday!
Here is an interesting topic I stumbled upon when I was looking for other bloggers who play Counter Strike. When I read this my mouth fell open!
But I've noticed, while playing CS, that when a player admits she is a woman,
two things happen: one, she immediately has a huge target right on her forehead
- the rest of the server (generally all male) go all out trying to kill the
female player as fast and as violently as they can. And second, the male players
are generally embarrassed that they have been killed by a woman (it's really
offensive, actually) - and men who weren't killed by this particular woman, rag
on the other guys who were. Pairing this with the second statistic, that less
than 1% of game coders are women, well, clearly core gaming is a mans world.
There is NO respect for female gamers unless their skill level far exceeds most
men that they are playing against.

And here is my reply..
I hope I wasn't to hars but that is the biggist noncence I have ever heard!
I would like to comment on this, I play counter strike:
Condition Zero and I never ever had any disrespect from males (unless I piss
them off) and that is not because my skills are amazing. Also I don;t have a
huge target on my forhead when they hear my voice and discover I am a female. So
I dont know what servers you go on, but you are obviously in the wrong
place.
I also play some Guild Wars now and then for about 2 years now, it can be a very interesting cool game, if you got some friends with you, playing alone is just not as fun. I play all sorts off games (mostly off line) besides the online multiplayer games, but usually get fed up with them pretty fast. Non online games are just not as fun as playing with other people and goofing around. So I think it is save to say that my favourite game at the moment is Condition Zero, what is yours?
