Perfect weekends and early schooldays

Okay...

It seems I've got a little more then 5000 hits in a year time!
So... I think I can call that a personal succes.
It makes me really happy that so many people read my blogs...
I never expected such a turnout...
When I started my that told me very few people would visit a blog...
And indeed very few people visitted HIS blog.
Mine is a lot mor popular then his apparently.

I'd say that calls for a celebration... but I celebrated already this weekend.
Last week it was my 20th birthday and my family stopped by. And my boyfriend!
Thank you so much Jamie!!!! I truly had a great weekend.

I'm gonna call it quits 'cause I have to start really early tomorrow. School at 7.20 a.m. TOO SOON!!!

Bye!!

A time for new stories

November 14th. Dark clouds were gathering over London city. A big storm was coming up, probably the worst they'd seen in years, and on the news woman was warning everyone to stay in.

Jamie turned off the TV and walked to the window. Miki jumped up from the pillow she was lying on and took the spot next to his feet. "No good news tonight, girl." he said to the little black-and-grey cat as he scratched her head.
It was 4 p.m., the sky was pitch dark and the rain was attacking every single lost soul that dared to come out on the streets. Luckily for Jamie, he was safely inside.
“I’m going to the Prezzo. What do you think?” The cat looked at him as if she understood what he was saying and angled her head. “Yes, I know, it’s crazy to go outside, but it’s boring up here.”

Somewhere down the block, Nina was less lucky. Her car broke down somewhere on Down Street and due to the weather none of the mechanic wanted to take the risk of coming outside.
And since she was new in town she had no-one to call for help. “Lucky me. It’s my birthday!” she thought frustrated. So she closed off the car an started to walk. She really needed to get inside so she stopped at the cafeteria on the corner of the street.

When Jamie entered the Prezzo it was more crowded than ever. The only place left was at a small table on the other side of the room. There was a girl sitting across the table he’d never seen before. “Hello, I’m Jamie. Do you mind if I join you?”

She watched him for a moment before she smiled. “Not at all. I’m Nina.”

I'm trying something new. I'm trying to write a new story.
I started to write one 8 years ago, but since I'm no little kid anymore and my style has changed tremendously, I decided to start over instead of trying to change a story I'll probably never be able to change into what it should be.

What I've put on top of this blog entry is the very beginning of the story. And the thing is... I'd really like your opinions. It should be a mix up between a romantic story an a detective eventually.

So tell me if I should go on, if I should change things, anything.
If you have ideas that could help me for the rest of the story... those are welcome too.

Also... I'm looking for a titel...

Olive you people.
