Just a short announcement. I've started my exams on Monday, so I won't be posting as much the following two weeks.

Wish me luck and burn a candle!

Perfectly Lonely - John Mayer

"I'm perfectly lonely, 'cause I don't belong to anyone, nobody belongs to me."

This was my philosophy for a very long time, but now I'm sick and tired of being lonely (not perfectly at all). I've always thought that I'm perfectly able of staying alone my entire life, but now I've given up thinking that. I can't stay alone, I'm in need of someone to love and in need of someone who loves me beyond everything in return..

HAPPY 2010!!!

Dear readers

I wish you all a wonderful 2010. May you meet many amazing people this year.

As for me, I absolutely HATE it when everyone keeps wishing you a boyfriend. Like this is their business?! Ugh! Well, maybe I really should start looking for someone, so they won't wish me the same thing year after year after year.

Have a nice day!

Love, Iris

Something to think about...

If Today Was Your Last Day

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had, if today was your last day?
What if, what if, if today was your last day?

Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the price is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you're never living twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?

And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are

So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothing stand in your way
'Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?

And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?

Owner of a lonley heart

"Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than a
Owner of a broken heart..."

I don't know, I've had a broken heart, but I think a lonely heart is worse, knowing that no-one loves you. When someone breaks your heart, usually there are several others that comfort you and still love you. When your heart is lonely, there's like no one on earth that loves you, would you prefer that?!

I'm sure I wouldn't. So 'Yes', change the lyrics of this song, a broken heart is WAY better than a lonely heart!!

Merry Christmas

A little bit to late, but I still want to wish all of you a Merry Christmas! I hope you were all able to celebrate with your family and friends!

I had quite a nice Christmas. We celebrated with my mom's side of the family and we played on my cousin's Wiii! It was my first time ever, but my arm and shoulder still ache from playing tennis..

About my presents, no Santa didn't bring me a wonderful boyfriend - unfortunately! I've always been kind of a perfectionist and this doesn't help me in finding someone to spend my life with. I've tried to change myself, to become less of a perfectionist, but it doesn't really work out. Guess that leaves me only 1 option: finding the perfect boyfriend. Are you with me on my quest?

Nice to meet you

Well, I decided to write a blog about my - not always wonderful - life! The reason? To practice my writing skills.

I imaging you'd want to know a little bit about me. My name's Iris, I'm 20 years old and I'm single, which could be an important fact if you want to follow my story. This is about everything you need to know about me for now. I'll start my blog today - December 24, 2009 - at 7347 days old.

Love,
Iris
