Gwen. Gwen is my middle name and Gwen is what you'll call me. I was born on a snowy December morning, on the 6th to be precise, in Rotterdam, which is an amazing city in The Netherlands. Rotterdam is the place I call home, and I couldn't imagine living anywhere else. I'm the youngest of two children. I have an older sister and she is the bad child, which means I'm the good one. Oh joy. My parents have been married for a good 30+ years and they've had many ups and downs. My home isn't always a happy one to live in, but that's the story for many people I guess. School. I'm not a big fan and I never was. I hated high school. I wasn't there a lot. Let's just say I took a lot of sick days, because school makes me sick. My high school was a pretty unhealthy environment. People always tried to pull you into their drama. I hate using the word "popular", so I won't use it. I was well-liked. I had a lot of friends. The first years I spent a lot of time trying to please the people around me. Later I just stopped caring what they thought. I was a pretty good student. I used to care a lot about my grades so I worked hard and got good grades. But keeping that up was really stressful for me so for some classes I just settled on average grades. It's not like you need an excellent GPA to get into college here. I graduated from high school in 2003 with pretty good grades. My highest was a 9 for French with 10 being the highest you could get. I was pretty good with languages, I got both an 8 for English and German, but I completely suck at stuff like Math and History. I was extremely happy that I got a 6 for both of those subjects. College. What do good students do after high school? They go to college. Honestly, I was never interested in going to college, but you have to do something with your life. I spent my last three years of high school wondering what to study. My passion for writing led to thoughts of becoming a journalist. I really liked the idea of writing for a magazine, but I just didn't care enough about all the subjects you need to be interested in when you're studying journalism. At the end of my senior year I decided to study Psychology. I'd been working through some emotional problems since I was fifteen and I thought Psychology would help me understand my depression and stuff. I wanted to attend college in Rotterdam at Erasmus University, but they didn't have any open spots left. I ended up in Leiden at Leiden University, my second home. Leiden. At first I wasn't too thrilled I was going to attend Leiden University. Everyone I knew was attending Erasmus. The fact that I hate all those people was something I didn't even think about. Actually attending college scared the hell out of me so knowing people would've been comforting. Luckily I'm blessed with a sparkling personality, so I made friends pretty fast in Leiden. Now I'm actually relieved I'm not attending Erasmus, cause every once in a while, I hear crap about my old classmates and I'm really glad I'm not in the middle of it. I like the people who attend my University. Everyone is so nice. I've met a lot of wonderful people there. I don't even like people in general, so the fact that I'm saying that means a lot. Love. I've never had my heart broken. I'm not exactly looking forward to the day it will happen. I've broken a couple of hearts and karma's a bitch, so I know it won't be easy. Actually, being on the rejecting side isn't easy either. Love isn't easy. It's completely irrational. The heart wants what it wants. And there's nothing you can do about it. Friends. I have severe trust issues. I don't really trust people. Trusting people usually means I end up getting hurt. I'm pretty easy going when it comes to friends. I think of people as friends pretty fast, but of course that doesn't mean I completely trust them. I have a couple of great friends who I can trust and who are able to put up with me. Outside. I look arrogant, bitchy, unapproachable and intimidating to people who don't know me. Blame it on my annoyed look and long, dark locks. Mostly I wear jeans with anything. I like hoodies. In general, I look preppy or classy/feminine. Big fan of flip flops when it's summer, though I mostly wear heels. Lots of silver bracelets on my right arm. Inside: I'm a little bit broken. Unstable. Irrational. Obsessive. I'm a big worrier. I worry about everything. I hate that. Besides that, I'm a very nice and warm person. People like me a lot. Actors. Eric Christian Olsen. Jake Gyllenhaal.
