My spare time...

Actually I haven’t got a lot of spare time. Every Saturday and Sunday evening I work in a restaurant, and usually I spend the rest of the weekend working for school or sleeping in. Every day of the week I commute from Rijkevorsel to Antwerp and back, and when I arrive at home, again, a lot of schoolwork is waiting for me to be done. Currently, acting (I’m in a theatre group) is my only hobby, but it is - to be honest - a very demanding one. We’ve been practising a lot for the last few weeks - 4 times a week, from 18.30 till ± 22.30 – because next week, we’re staging our play. After a while all this practising gets very exhausting, because it asks a lot of time and energy and even sleep; there’s still schoolwork to be done!

As from next week, after performing our play, I will finally have some spare time, which I’ll devote to reading books, listening to music, watching TV and relaxing and of course to friends. But on top of that, I’m also going to try to pick up my writing again. I’ve already written a book, about the dramatic life of Katherine Petersen, and currently I’m working on a second one, but because of school and a lack of time, I haven’t been able to work it out yet. I have always had a very vivacious imagination, which can be stimulated by listening to Queen-music (I’ve been a huge Queen-fan for over 10 years) or watching to series like Prison Break.

I also love reading books, especially horror books and thrillers, and magazines like ‘Prison Break Magazine’ for example or ‘Dag Allemaal’ and ‘Blik’. I also love going out with friends and drinking cocktails.
