How I try to be!

Ways to make your day a better, happier day!

5 ways to make your day happier:
Smile at people. If you smile to the world, the world will smile to you!
Give compliments. If you teel people nice things, it will boost you own happiness.
Do things you like. Hang out with friends, take balletclass, watch a good movie, anything you like. It'll make you day brighter.
Laugh! Laugh with your friends, at your mistakes, at anything appropriate.
Look at the bright side of life. If you have homework it makes you smarter, if it is rainy it'll make the plants happy, if you sick, you can stay on the couch, if your sad, better ties will come. 

Smiling at you (the none-creepy-way :P)

Valentine's Day!

As everybody knows, today is valentines day! The day, we think about love, chocolates, roses and pink hearts. Many also think about being alone, with out a boy/girlfriend. All those people thinking they'll be alone forever: STOP! You won't! Out in the world somewhere, is a wonderful and smart person. A person you'll love, and who will love you. A person who will respect you, care for you. God is just waiting for the right moment to show him/her to you! You may see all the couples walking hand in hand, just wait! Someday it will be you, holding the hand of the most fantastic person you can ever imagine.

   But it is valentines day, you may say. It is special! You have to have a boy/girlfriend. No! What is so special about today? Nothing. It is just a normal, grey, boring tuesday. Really. The thing that makes it special is if you have someone special to share it with. And if you don't, then just wait, maybe next year, or the year after you will have that special one of your dreams to share 14. of january with! 

   And until then, you can just spend valentinesday, in thee couch, watching a romantic movie like Titanic, The Notebook, or Dirty Dancing, eating ice cream, thinking of how nice it is to be single and free, like me!

Be happy, you can just pretend that Valentine's day this year is cancelled because it is the 14.2.12 and 14-2-12=0!

Will you be my Valentine?

BE YOURSELF

I love wearing high-waisted knee-length skirts, a big flower in my hair, and it is almost always in a bun. I listen to classical music and jazz. We have no TV, and I go to the theater, more than I go to the movies. Many people I know say that I'm old fashioned. I say that I'm me. I don't care what other people think of me, as long as I'm happy with myself. Don't think about what other people will think of you, just do what you feel like, dress so you feel beautiful, live so you love it!

Being me,

Family

I love weekends! They are just a wonderful thing! This weekend I'm spending most of saturday at rehearsals, but sunday my whole family and me are going iceskating. I love to do thing together with my family. On the normal days, my little brother has soccer, I go to balletclass, we both have school, mom and dad gots work, and my littlesister goes to kindergarden. So we don't have much time together, but we always try to eat dinner and drink tea in the evening together. In the weekends it's different. We are all home, and can relax and have fun with each other. I love my family so much and are very grateful for it. I know that some people has lost a loved one, or is in other ways not abled to spend time with their whole family. I just wish they could be as lucky as me, and have a family of their own. I wish they could feel the happiness and warmth I feel, when being with my family. And I know, someday they will!


You are a part of my family,

Fire

Yesterday/evening, the appartment on the other sde of my house was burning. Everybody was really scared, and many people didn't have a place to sleep, that night. I really hope that they all had families to go to. It was an old, mentally ill lady, who had started the fire. Many people had tried to get the government to take care of her, but hey said it was to expensive, because in Denmark we have the economical crises as well as all over the world. And it just goes to show you, they could have prevented that fire, if they had helped her.
   Luckly noone was hurt!

I really wish, than instead of sending danes out to war, and throw bombes, Denmark could help the weak people.

Kisses,

Negative and positiv

Today I had kind of a bad day. School wasn't the most fun, it rained, was cold and I forgot my bag at my balletschool, and my french homework for tomorrow was in it. Every time, when I have had a bad day, I always try to find 3 positiv thing about the day. Because when you think of the positivs, all the negativ fades away. You should try it ;)

3 good things about today:
Balletclass was good as usual
My dad came home from Italy
And tomorrow will be better

Gros bisous (french for "big hugs")

Back to school

Today was my first day back at school after the holidays. Yeaterday, I was like "I would loove to have some more vacation, I don't wanna go to school...", and in the morning it was really hard to get up, but once I got over to the school, and saw all my friends, it wasn't bad, and school wasnøt that bad either, actually I really like school ;)

But all in all, just remember to look positive on things, and almost always things are not as bad as they seem ;)

Better than yourself

Mikhail Baryshnikov is one of my absolut favorite dancers. The way he jumps, or should I say fly, is just AMAZING. And at the same time, he just has that little extra spark in his eye, not many others have. My ballet teacher trained in the same studio with him, when I heard it I was like "woooow....!!", if you breathed in the same air as Baryshnikov, and I breathed in the same as you... Then I breathed in the same as Baryshnikov, kind of...

Mikhail Baryshnikov once said: "I don't try to dance better than anyone else, I only try to dance better than myself.". I love this quote. He doesn't care how good other people are, he only cares about becoming a better and better dancer. And lets face it, BARYSHNIKOV IS THE BEST!
   I think everybody should try and think like Baryshnikov, not only in dance, but in life. Being jealous of others, or wanting to be better than them never makes you better, but wanting to be better than yourself drives you, and gives you motivation.

I hope that you all can be better than yourself, even though you already are perfect the way God made you,

1. december!!

Today it's the first of december!!!! Yaaay! I love Christmas, but ONLY in december. Stores start decorating their windows in early november, and the radios start playing Christmas songs there too. I can't stand it. But when december starts, I'm in the most Christmassy mood baking cookies and decorating.
The best things about Christmas, is being with my family and celebrating the birth of Jesus. I also love the Nutcracker!!!!! Nothing to get me in a better Christmas spirit, than going to watch the Nutcracker. Another thing, is Christmas music. Especially "Christmas with Harry Belafonde", a Christmas album, my grandmother always listens to.


Christmas, Christmas, Christmas!!

Big Smiles

Today at school, we played basket against some other schools. I REALLY DO NOT LIKE BASKET BALL!!! And when we were done, my teacher came over to me and said: "Good job! You really like basket, don't you?" And I was like ?????. The only thing I had done, was smile all day.    If you smile, you can make people happy. And they will smile at you.

My lesson of the day: Sometimes you make people happy, be faking it! And it makes you happier to make someone happy!

Big smiles,

What is Happiness?

What is happiness?? I've always wondered. If you look it up in a dictonary it says: Felling of deep joy and great satisfaction for the (life) situation you are in. But is it? Happiness isn't a thing you can put to lines under. I think happiness is different from person to person. And sometimes happiness can be the same as love. Not love, like a boy loves a girl. But love for the world, everything. Happiness can also be a felling of peace in your soul. Happiness can be everything.

Happiness to all. Young or old. Thick or thin. Black or white.

Cake VS leotard

I have a sweet tooth, and sometimes it can get the better of me. But I have this deal with myself:
If I eat, so I'm proud of myself, for one whole month, then i will allow myself to by a new leotard!


Notice that i write "Eat, so I'm proud of myself"? When I eat to much unhealthy stuff, I don't feel pround of myself, so in the month, I don't diet! I still allow me to eat cake sometimes, but only to the extend when I'm pround. Of course I try not to eat to much :D A trick when I'm hungry for sweets, is that a go look at a website who sells leotards, to see what "prize" I'm gonna buy myself.


Cakes and leotards,
- Me <3

Proud, not selfish!

Sometimes the small things in life, is the things that makes us happy. For instance: Today while doing a pirouette combination in balletclass, my theacher stod in front of me and said "Know do seven turns!", she meant it as a joke, but i turn and do 6! The rest of the day I got a little smile on my face, when I thought about it. Some may say this is selfish. I don't think so. It is okay to be proud of yourself. It is okay to think you are good at something. You are always your own's worst critic, and when you do something well be proud!! Right know: Smile to yourself, and say one thing out loud, that you have done last week, that made you proud. Do it! I mean it!! Just try, you feel a but wierd, sitting to yourself, smiling and talking, but you will also feel happy! Try doing this, when you are feeling down and sad. It helps. Really, it helps!

Smiling to myself, without feeling selfish!
