This old heart of mine

These old arms of mine
Miss having you around
Make these tears inside
Start falling down, well
Always with half a kiss
You remind me of what I miss
So I try to control myself
Like I’m gonna start fainting, cause my heart stops beating

Hi commercial

I told someone about this commercial. Just posting it here for you :)

Interview about BookCrossing

Today was my interview with the local newspaper. The journalist was very interested in BookCrossing and loves to read, so we talked about books for a while before getting to the BookCrossing bit.

I told her about how i came into contact with BX (thanks Aaltsje) and told her about a few really nice catches i remembered from the top of my head. Including the book ‘found’ by our Queen and my moms book which traveled from Groningen to Bahrein. I alos told her a lot about OBCZ, releasing, themed releases and all kinds of stuff. I threw in a few numbers about how many books were registered, how many members there are worldwide, in the Netherlands and in Fryslân. She absolutely loved that i new that. We talked for more then an hour and she told me that she wanted to place the piece in next weeks paper. The internet edition of the piece will be up as soon as possible.

I’ll link to it when it’s up, but it’ll be in dutch, so you might not be able to read it. But then, there’s a picture of me included, so you can just admire me :P

For Once in my Life

For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dreams come true

Neighbourhood

Here’s a photo I’ve been looking for
It’s a picture of the boy next door
And I loved him more than words can say
Never knew it ’til he moved away

My head is spinning

Sometimes my head is spinning like mad. I can’t stop all the thoughts that go through my mind. I wish i could. But memories keep surfacing (finally, they’ve been burried too deep). I’m happy that i finally remember them, but why do they come back when i want to sleep?

Last night i lay awake from 4 am. The night before that i was awake from 1 am til 4 am. I then finally fell asleep, but had very weird and anxious dreams about mail somehow not being delivered or envelopes running back to me when they should go to the person i wanted to write. Even BookCrossing books had hidden messages in them. Last night i was dreaming that i was dreaming. Somehow that ended up being a nightmare. Hadn’t had one for a long time. I think it might be the new job thing and a lot of other things coming together.

Don’t get me wrong, i love those things coming together right now. I believe it’s time for them to resurface, just the insomnia that it causes is hard to deal with. I’m really glad to have my new job and the opportunities it gives me. It might take some time to fit in, but i believe i can make it here. I love it here.

Now there’s just the matter of stopping my head from spinning and trying to get a good night sleep. That would be very welcome.

Chances are

I remember clearly how you looked
The night we met
I recall your laughter and your smile
I remember how you made me
Feel so at ease
I remember all your grace, your style

And now you’re all I long to see
You’ve come to mean so much to me

What about love?

What about love that lasts forever?

What about time to see it through?

If you don’t give you just don’t get it

What about me?

What about you?

What about love?

It’s all coming back to me now

There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things I’d never do again
But then they’d always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than any laws allow
