Preparing my exams, a litte goodbye

It's a long time ago I updated my blog. Excuses. I'm really busy with preparing my exams.
Exam bundles everywhere... Hopefully I pass my exams.

I wore my favorite shirt with cute old cameras on it of the Brandly Merville and my favorite blouse with collar of the H&M,
combined with my vintage short of Episode.
Oh and I wore a ponytail... for a more hippie effect.

Promise you that I will post more after my exams. I have nice plans for my blog!

For all followers who are now preparing their exams, good luck!! Keep your head up.
We can kill all the exams, only when you believe in yourself!

I really like these pictures with the girls!

Take a look in my portfolio - part 1




























I promised you that I show you my portfolio. I went to Cibap, a creative school in Zwolle, yesterday.
After a stressful week (testweek) and preparing my admission, the day had finally come.

I was so nervous. Like an 'all - nothing' feeling. Do you know what I mean? There isn't a plan B.
I thought there were a few other people who did admission. But I was wrong.
The whole room was filled with people who wanted to do admission (I guess 150 people).
I was still nervous. The competition was extremely. I was insecure, began to doubt about my portfolio when I saw all those people.
''No Karlijn'', is what I said to myself, ''Show yourself, you can do this''. And I repeat that the whole day.

We had two assignments received. A 2D assignment (a poster) and a 3D assignment (making a seat of paper).
It was so difficult because I've never made these assignments in so little time. The pressure was high.
And yes, I'm perfectionistic, so these things were hell in so little time.

Between the assignments, I had my intake conversation. I had to show my portfolio and my home assignments
(making a poster,divided into four surfaces, about your hobbies, what you will be become, your dream-room, and your firstname in different letters).
I had to motivate my workpieces. My conversation carriers were like POKERFACES.
I don't know what they thought. Am I good? Or am I bad for this training?
So... yes.. I don't know. My conversation was quickly over. It may be a good sign or a bad sign.

I made these pictures of my portfolio. I have more photos to show my work. Therefore, there is a part 1 and a part 2.
I made my portfolio by myself. I thought, it's more creative when you buy a portfolio.

I have to explain my dream-room. My dream-room is a room with a view of the Eiffel Tower, light and romantic with
old wooden planks as flooring. A little bit vintage as touch.
What do you think?

Polaroids







































Just love polaroids. They give you a vintage effect. These pictures are made in the summer
holiday in Paris. Paris is so beautiful!!
If I think about these days in Paris... I really want to go back.

Now, unfortunately I'm so busy with school.
Next week I have my last test week of the year 5 HAVO. So I'm preparing for all these tests.
I also have my admission next week. I have to finish my portfolio.
I promised you that I show you my portfolio. This week you will see the post about my portfolio.

it's that time again



























Just want to give you a little bit of 'summer feeling.' Here you are. I made this picture last year and really like the picture
because it reminds me of the nice summer days.
A few months... it's that time again.

I want to tell you that my friends and I are going on holiday together to Santa Susanna in Spain.
I really looking forward to it. Damn, just love the idea that we have the time of our lives for 8 days there!!
