Let's start with the Jar of 2014

Everytime that I need to do lots of stuff, I get ideas for my blog. So last week I decided to make a Jar of 2014. I searched for a jar and putted a label with "2014" on it. I already dropped some papers in it. I also think this works in a positive way cause you think more and longer about the things you do. You concentrate on the positive without knowing actually. I think this is easy to do even when you're busy. This is my first jar and I'm already curious for the day, in 2015 that I will open it. You know, a lot can happen and change in one year. I'll make a video or an article about my jar then. I'm just too excited about it! I'm even excited about 2014 actually! I hope that I can put a lot of great memories in this jar and let's see how it turns out in one year!

Are you planning on making a jar or something else to remember great memories? Let me know in a comment below!

Say hello to my Nikon D5200.

I think it was time for a new camera, like a good camera. I have one but I only use that one for concerts cause it has a good zoom and it's small enough to get into the venues. I talked a lot with my dad about getting a good one and last saturday he took me to a shop and today we bought the Nikon D5200. IN LOVE!
Sorry for these horrible pictures with my Iphone but the light in the bedroom that I have in dad's house isn't working well. I should ask dad to fix it! But I'm just so excited and wanted to give you a look of my new camera! I'm almost jumping around, I wanna get started!

Say bye to this quality hahah!

And get used to this. Well I'm not a pro, I need to get to know my camera so don't kill me!

What will 2014 bring?

Hello everyone,

2013 is almost over, how fast did it go?! I wish you all the best in 2014! We don't know what might happen, good things or bad things. But don't forget to make the best out of it! Today I'm gonna show you the concerts that I planned in 2014, as you might know, I LOVE concerts!

On February the 13th Daphni and I are going to Avicii, we're not huge fans but I think I wanna be part of such a concert too! Just closing your eyes and let the music take over the place!

On March the 20th I'm going to Beyoncé again and also with Daphni. Last time I went with my dad. When I heard that Queen B was coming back to Belgium, Daphni told me that she really wanted to see her. Last time I had seats, the best seats of the arena. So freaking close to the stage. Here you can read my article about that evening (http://www.evaheroo.com/2013/06/beyonce-concert.html). This time we have standing places. An our before the ticket sale I found a pre-sale link. So we got our tickets one hour earlier then the rest. NO STRESS, felt so good!

Last but not least, One Direction concerts! I'm totally ready for the "Where We Are" tour! I'm going with Chelsea this time and sooo looking forward to it! In Amsterdam we have VIP tickets and in Dusseldorf standing. Aren't we a bit crazy? One Direction doesn't come to Belgium see we go to them! Anyway I like it!

If you are going to one of these concert where I have standing places. If you stand infront of me, please move a little for me. I'M FREAKING SMALL. Oh I'm so scared that I won't see anything. Let's hope for the best!


This was 2013 on evaheroo.com
PS: I'm still here in 2014!

Personal challenge.

Everyone starts now to make a list with his good intentions for 2014. I started a few weeks ago already. I was talking to a guy from class. He told me he drank 3 litres of water per day. That is pretty much and certainly for me. I barely drink one litres in a day, when I told him about it he challenged me. And I wanted to prove myself, I also wanted to prove that I could drink 1.5 liters of water per day. Since that time I always had a bottle of water next to me. When When ithe bottle was empty I sent it to that boy. I've been doing good for two weeks now. I must admit that I do not succeed every day, especially when I'm not home that much. But I do my best and will certainly do in 2014. Drinking water is so healthy. It's good for your kidneys, for your skin, you lose weight from it and you feel just  a lot better!

Reading for nerds?

“Reading? Ew no! I only do that when school asks me to!”  These world could come easily out of my mouth a year ago when the teacher started to talk about the book reviews that we had to do throughout the year. To say nothing about the sermon that she started. “Reading is really important, you have to keep doing it!” I heard this so many times. Our school gave us the books that we had to read. “These won prizes, they are in the top 10!” After I had read these books with great difficulty.. No, I had read a part. Just enough, I read just enough to understand the story. But still I don't understand why they had won prizes. Weird sentences, old-fashioned and depressing. Yes, I got that feeling!

It was in January this year, it was a rainy day and I had no homework for the first time. I was going to do some shopping with mom and I went to the books section. ' Fifty shades of grey ' I pulled out a book from the rack. I had heard many good things about the book, it was a hype! I didn't want to be the grey mouse who couldn’t join the conversation when other were talking about it. That night I literally fell asleep with the book in my hands. Never happened before! I have read the first two books of Twilight and a bit of the third one but I stopped because I didn’t like it anymore. Meanwhile I'm reading the third book, ' Fifty shades freed '. The story still gets my attention. I like reading now. Yes, nice! You are seeing the things all of a sudden in a different way. It’s also relaxing!

Teenagers don’t like to read. Everyone also has the image you only read if you are quiet and don't like to be social. Thanks to the hypes, people who never read start to get curious and grab a book. Usually you come in contact with books for a book review on school because you have to do it. You want a book as small as possible and it should be finished as soon as possible. Half of young people take something out of the racks without looking. Therefore, I recommend you to search for the book that appeals to you. Look at the cover, read the back. You don’t want a boring book, right? So try to discover what genre appeals to you. You're going to see that you won’t see reading as a punishment anymore. Maybe soon you’ll read a thick book in 1,2,3!

Note down: reading is NOT for nerds.

Internet friendship.

Do you have an internet friend? Do you have many of them? How far do they live from you and is your friendship real? A lot of people ask it themself cause do you think that you can get to know someone on the internet? On TV you hear a lot of stories about boys and girls who get to know each other on the internet and meet up but then it doesn't end that good when it's on the news. But are there also nice stories about internet friendship?

Personally, I have a bit of experience with internet friendships. I got to know my first internet friend in 2010 via Twitter. We talked a bit and we started to talk more and more. She was from Denmark, I was from Belgium. When we both had an iphone we gave eachother our number and the Imessage- conversations started. Stine from Denmark knew a lot about me. She knew about my problems but I also told her the most random things that happened to me. Our parents knew about their daughter talking to someone far away from them cause we sent eachother letters and postcards. This summer I decided to visit her. I took the plane on my own. Off to Denmark, off to Stine.

In 2012 I got to know Cindy, also via Twitter. From the first day on we started texting and we didn't stop! She only lived 30 minutes away from me. We met up and it was like we knew eachother for so long! No single awkward moment! I also can tell her everything, she's always there to put a smile on my face. We went twice to London, once to Cologne and other events and concerts! I also celebrated NYE with her and more parties to come!

Since a short time I talk with Chelsea, a girl I met on Twitter. It started two days before the concert of One Direction in Belgium and since that they we didn't skip one day of talking! I tell her almost everything via text, imessage, Twitter or Facebook. I haven't met her until now but that will happen really soon!

(Do you want me to vlog my meeting with her or read a blog about it? Let me know!)

I can only say, don't be scared to meet up with internet friends. Take a (maybe) risk. But always be careful!
