I found this funny “monthly glance” survey to put in one’s journal. Think it’s pretty cool, so here goes.
This month was: August
Season: Summer… or it was supposed to be summer.
Weather: the wettest month ever, if one can believe the weather channel.
Holidays: summer holiday
What is blooming?: Uhm…I’m not an expert on flowers. We’re having our first [...]

Boring Monday
Posted in High School, Personal on August 30, 2004 | Leave a Comment »
Last night I slept really horribly. I’m not even sure if I actually did sleep at all. I stood up at 8:15, for I again had to begin school at 9:50. Sigrid started at 9:50, too, but today school for her was over earlier than it was for me – at 2:00 instead of 2:50.
My [...]
Just Some Thoughts

It’s night. I nearly forgot I’ll have to go to school tomorrow. I’ll have to be up at 8:15. Did I call the cab? Yeah, I did. I don’t know what classes I’ll have. Probably math as I had homework for that. And philosophy and Dutch. Don’t know what else. Maybe German. Oh no, probably [...]
Thoughts about Boris’ Concert

Well, as I said I went to see Boris yesterday. So Sigrid and I went to Arnhem by bus, ate something at McDonald’s and then met with a few girls from a message board Sigrid uses, which is a board for Boris fans. We went to the place where Boris would sing, and arrived at [...]
Second Day in My Senior Year

Today school started at 9:50 with Latin. Mrs. Buwalda told about the subject for the final exam (Ovid and a
little bit Vergil), which is supposedly a pretty easy topic. I think it’s going to be interesting. We still will have quite a lot of tests for Latin this year – two normal tests and [...]
Some More Thoughts about the “Ladies”
Posted in Multiplicity, Personal on August 26, 2004 | Leave a Comment »
It’s fairly difficult to describe what these “ladies” are really like. In ninth grade, I saw them as totally sort of separate from me. I can’t remember how I then thought they could exist – for they were clearly just thoughts and feelings -, but I for some reason had really great difficulty realising that [...]
Thoughts on Being a High School Senior
Posted in High School, Personal on August 25, 2004 | Leave a Comment »
I have been feeling confused about a lot of issues lately. Twelfth grade has just started. My senior year. Last year of high school. I’ll do my final examination, for which a lot of stuff will have to be arranged. I’ll do my project on British Idealism, which is sooo chaotic. I’ll have to go [...]
First Day of School
Posted in High School, Personal on August 25, 2004 | Leave a Comment »
My first day of school started early, for I woke up at around 7:00 AM from Sigrid, who had to be up then. I just wanted to go to sleep again, when my watch started beeeeping and telling me the time, cause apparently the alarm was set at 7:15. When I had quieted it, I [...]
Got My Schedule
Posted in High School, Personal on August 24, 2004 | Leave a Comment »
Went to school to get my schedule and other stuff again. At first, the entire 12th grade came together in the multimedia centre to get some general info regarding new rules and regulations. Then, all went to a building which we call Binas (compiled from the abbreviations of the Dutch words for biology, physics and [...]
More on Openness, Anonymity and Online Writing
Posted in Journaling on August 23, 2004 | Leave a Comment »
As I browsed The Diary Project, I saw quite a few entries that were more open-hearted than mine in this diary are. There are people that seem not to care about what they write and how it will affect others. Mostly, however, the only difference with my writings, is that they are anonymous, so no-one [...]
