Hello there :]
For my new followers:
I'm Loes, 16 years old and I live in Oegstgeest, a small town in The Netherlands. I'm 100% Dutch, even though I spent 7 years of my life in Hamburg, Germany. At the moment I'm in the first year of the Diploma Programme of the IB, if you are also an IB student you probably know that that means that there will be times when I can't blog very much (although I hope that I can always post something at least once a week). In 2 years time I would like to be studying in London (you might have guessed that I love London by looking at my header) or somewhere else in the UK or The Netherlands. I enjoy writing, and I would like to become a journalist. Beside that I also like photography, listening to music, reading and just chilling/chatting with friends.
If you want to know more, feel free to ask :]
I will probably be blogging about a lot of different things, just things that pop to my mind. They can be related to music, photography, my view on fashion, baking, anything really.

Relax

Today was the last day of my testweek, and I had my geography test. I think it went okay, but not perfect. My math test yesterday was the worst of the whole week, pretty much the whole class was confused on the non-calculator part and so was I. But I think I did okay on the part where we could use a calculator.
I love how I can relax, and do anything I want after such a busy week full of studying. All I do is sit behind the computer and just look around on the internet, listening to music. This is so much better than studying! What do you do to relax after a busy week?
Did you see the kitten? I wish I had such a cute kitten!

Cute Hats
Winter is coming up, that means it's time to buy warm clothes.
I already have a new jacket which I ordered from H&M a few weeks ago, but I still want a new hat, scarf and gloves to go with it.
Today I found a few cute hats on the website of River Island, but they don't ship to The Netherlands which is stupid. But I will go and look in a River Island shop as soon as I see one!
These are the hats, aren't they adorable?

Halloween

It's Halloween tomorrow! I used to love celebrating Halloween at my old school in Hamburg. In junior school all the students and teachers came to school dressed up and we had a great party with loads of finger food in class! I remember dressing up as a witch several times, but also once as a hippie. I still love dressing up, but sadly my testweek is starting this Tuesday so I need to study and I can't celebrate Halloween. Besides, here in The Netherlands barely anybody celebrates it...
Are you celebrating Halloween?

IB survival tip
A few days ago I was googling some thing about CAS, when I came across a website called IB Survival. I opened it and looked around a bit, and decided to register. On IB Survival you can discuss anything about the IB program with other students from all over the world who know exactly how you feel! So whenever you are not sure about how to study or how to write your world literature assignment, you can ask other students on IB Survival. And if you don't need help there are plenty of other things to do.
So, if you are an IB students experiencing difficulties surviving the IB or you just want to talk to other students you can check out www.ibsurvival.com :]
