It's been a long time...

Wow, it has been forever since my last post! I was really surprised to find out that I'm still getting 15-20 visitors a day here! I really thought that barely anyone read this. :D So I guess I owe it to all of you who actually care about what I have to say to continue writing on here. Thank you everyone, for visiting my blog even though it hasn't been updated for so long. :) I'll try to do my best to come back here more often. (I know I've said that before, but hopefully this time it will be true :p)

Oops...

Oh my god, I can't believe it's been soooo long since I've posted something. I'm so sorry! I guess I have been pretty busy the last few months. And there's that lack of inspiration as well of course! Right now I have finals, so that has been keeping me away from here as well.

Yesterday, I also created a tumblr, so feel free to check that out (even though there isn't much on there yet): EvaSaysHi.tumblr.com
Yeah the title is pretty lame. :P I probably tried like 50 other ones but they were all taken. :(

Anyway, I'm looking forward to summer so freaking much! This song always makes me think about summer, and taking trips and such. I love it!

Cute!

I want to share with you all today the cutest video clip I have ever seen. I was zapping on my television, and suddenly saw this clip. It features all sorts of baby animals who play together, and with the band members. And the song is pretty catchy as well!

Seriously, you have to check it out. If you do not go "aawww" at least once in this song, I will let you slap me. (Though nobody knows where I am, mwuhahahaaa)



It also really reminds me of summer, which makes me like it even more!

Sleep

Do you sometimes have trouble sleeping? Because I do, and I think it's because I think too much when I'm lying in bed. Everyone's always saying: "Just stop thinking." But I think that's easier said than done, because I'm so incredibly bored if I just lay there, I mean I have do do something right? So I think. I think about my day, I make up scenario's in my head of things that could happen, I think about great memories, I think about what I'm going to have to do the next day. I was actually thinking about posting this on my blog yesterday night when I was trying to fall asleep. :)

So how about you, do you easily fall asleep at night? Or do you stay up thinking about stuff like me?

Happy New Year

Okay, so this post is two days late, but so what? Happy New Year everyone! So do any of you have any New Year resolutions? Here are mine:

- get into shape. This is a pretty classic one, but I think I might have gained some weight eating all the time these holidays. ;D And my love handles are big enough as they are!
- post more on my blog. This has been improving these last few weeks. I'll try to keep it up, and maybe increase my posting even more.

Did you know that the most popular resolutions is to lose weight?
Please share your resolutions with me. :)

Jane Austen's Sense & Sensibility

I've decided to try something new here. In this blogpost I am going to discuss a book that have I read a while back and I quite liked it. Those among you who enjoy reading will hopefully also enjoy reading this. :) The book is Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen.

First of all, here is a thorough summary of the novel. This summary pretty much gives it all away, so spoiler alert! Since it's quite long, I'm not going to post it all here, at the bottom you will find a link that will take you to the complete summary, and a discussion of the theme.


Mr. and Mrs. Dashwood live at Norland with their three daughters Elinor, Marianne and Margaret. Mr. Dashwood also has a son – John Dashwood – from his first marriage. When Mr. Dashwood passes away, the estate is inherited by John Dashwood. On his deathbed, Mr. Dashwood asks his son to take care of his wife and daughters, but John Dashwood’s wife, Fanny Dashwood, convinces him that he isn’t obligated to give them anything. They soon move into Norland.

Elinor, the eldest daughter, seems to be getting along quite well with Edward Ferrars, Fanny’s brother, but Fanny doesn’t want the two to get married. Mrs. Dashwood is offered a new affordable home by her cousin Sir John Middleton on his estate and decides to take it.

There, they are warmly welcomed by Sir John Middleton and often dine with him in his house at Barton Park. They also meet the 35-year-old Colonel Brandon, who soon appears to be attracted to Marianne. She, however, doesn’t feel the same way.

When Marianne slips when she was out for a walk, the handsome John Willoughby comes to her rescue, who is visiting his rich aunt. Marianne and Willoughby get along really well, which makes Mrs. Dashwood and Elinor expect they are secretly engaged. After a while, Willoughby declares that he has to go to London for business and might stay away for a long time. Marianne is devastated by this announcement.

Shortly after Willoughby’s departure, Edward Ferrars arrives at their house, but seems unhappy which makes Elinor believe he doesn’t love her anymore.

Cousins of Lady Middleton, Anne and Lucy Steele also visit Barton Park. When Sir John informs Lucy about Elinor’s attachment to Edward, she claims she has secretly been engaged with Edward for 4 years. At first, Elinor was angry with Edward, but then she realized he was still very young at the time. Elinor hoped he had made a mistake and doesn’t love Lucy anymore.

Elinor and Marianne are then invited by Mrs. Jennings, Sir John Middleton’s mother-in-law, to accompany her to London and spend the winter there. Marianne hopes to see Willoughby and is therefore delighted by this offer. Willoughby, however, doesn’t answer any of her letters. She soon finds out he was disinherited by his aunt because he is the father of Miss Williams’ illegitimate child. She’s the daughter of Colonel Williams. That’s why he is now engaged to the wealthy Miss Grey.
