My new dress ^^

Hey ^^
Well, it happened a while ago, but I'm just so happy with it I want to share it :D
As some of you may know, I wear a certain type of clothing (only in weekends xD) called Lolita. It's a fashion from Japan, and almost all of the clothes are made there (maybe that's why they are so expensive..). A typical lolita outfit exists of a dress, a blouse, knee-high socks, cute shoes and sometimes even a headdress (a ribbon or minihat). For an example:

Also, lolita is very rare and expensive, so it's not easy to buy a dress. Luckily, we do have 1 shop in the Netherlands, located in Bilthoven (near Utrecht), which I visited in the vacation. There I saw the dress I had always wanted... It's from 'Baby, The Stars Shine Bright' (a lolita brand from Japan) and was designed by my favorite band: 'Versailles Philharmonic Quintet'. When I saw it between all the other dresses, I was so happy I immediately went to get some money and after trying it on for half an hour I bought it :D Here's the picture:Now it's hanging in my closet ^^ I just can't stop staring at it!
Also, if you want to look at the BTSSB site:

My dress is from the sub-brand Alice and the Pirates (the link is on the left, a little black box)
Well I think I've annoyed you enough with this story, so byebye ^^

I got a guinea pig

We have a rabbit called Plusie, (original name, isn't it?) But because we go to school it seemed to us that she was very lonely. So we went to the pet shop and searched for a friend, but they told us that rabbits will always fight other rabbits they encounter (yes, this is true!) so we looked at the guinea pigs. There were some very young ones and, after arguing for quite a time, we bought a small female. It took us two days to give her her name, Boeba.
At first, Pluisie was reluctant to her new housemate, so Boeba had to sleep in her own cage at the beginning, but eventually Pluisie accepted her and now they are happy together (I hope).

The dutch movie: 'Terug naar de Kust'

I am going to tell you something about a movie.
Last saturday I went to the cinema. I had heard about a new movie and I really wanted to see it. The dutch movie was called: ‘Terug naar de Kust’. The cinema was very crowded, so we were delighted by having a seat. The movie began.I saw a young woman, singing in a band. Her name was Maria. She looked happily, but after a few minutes I noticed that she wasn’t happy at all. Her boyfriend was an alcoholic and was having an affair with another lady. She left him, although she knew she was pregnant. She didn’t want to keep the baby, because she and her boyfriend Geert were separated. Gerrit was very sad about this, but he had accepted it, Maria thought. Four days later, Maria received a threatening letter. She didn’t know who had written it and thought it was a stupid joke. Unfortunately, the threats didn’t stop. That was the moment Maria went to the police office and informed the police. The police told her that is was safer for Maria to go to a relative and go into hiding. Maria went to her sister Ans. After a few days, Maria was feeling better, but she was perplexed when she heard that her house was burned down. Everyone blamed Maria and she thought she was going crazy. The police didn’t believe her either, so she was going to do the investigation by herself. She searched for directions and when she found out that her sister was responsible for all these happenings, she wanted to escape her sister’s house as soon as possible. Hopefully it was not too late …I’m not going to tell you the end of the story, because I think it’s no fun to watch it anymore. You really have to see it!

Bored

I had to write a story even though I couldn't think of a good one. I don't don't have any inspiration for my story it has to be done before tomorrow and I can't do it tonight because then I've got to Judo, so I'm doing it now.
Makes sense?
No, it doesn't make any sense to me either. So yeah this is my story so far. It's about as confusing as the book we have to read for english...

A story

Hi, let me tell you a story..
Once there was a guy called Marc. He was addicted to a game, dedicated to the devil himself.
Today, we know this game as WoW, a.k.a. World of Warcraft.
His life was ruined big time by this game of pure evilness. His life was spammed with the ideas of the devil.
He was never going to escape from this dark and devilish game of hell.
He's spent over a week of complete game-time on this game. The week after the game-week, he was drowsy and talked on and on and on about the devil and his ideas. He was addicted forever...

This was the sad story of Marc van Deuren, also known as "devil's right hand"....

The past tense.

In Dutch the past tense is called: onvoltooid tegenwoordige tijd (o.v.t.). Perhaps this mnemonic device (how about some difficult words, right!)can help you:
o.v.t. --> oh, verrek, toen!

Remember: if you say when in the past an action took place, you must use the past tense!

Lads and lasses,

There is so much to be found on the internet to help you make progress in English. I have just spent half an hour on this website: http://www.english-4u.de/ and I could easily have spent much more time there. It is well worth a visit.

Good luck with your tests next week!
