Introduction
Some People Think I'm Stupid But I'm Not

Hi, I'm Giulietta. I'm a 19 year old woman from the Netherlands. I currently live my parents and my two cats in a small town called Abcoude. I don't really like living there, as there are so many old people and children. I live across my old school and the children always wake me up.

I love Music. Ever since I was young, I loved dancing and singing. Unfortunately when I went to highschool, I quit dancing and ever since gaining weight, I didn't feel like I belonged on the dancefloor. I still am a music fanatic, all day I listen to music, search new music, meet new artists... it's a great life and a great way of expressing yourself.

Everyday I watch movies, so you can say I'm addicted to that as well. I prefer Drama or Horror movies, but other movies are fine too, as long as it's not boring. My all time favourite movie would have to be The Lord Of The Rings, simply because it's brilliant and even though lately I fall asleep when watching it, I still love it. Finding Nemo is a lovely movie as well, Death Sentence is one of the best action movies I've ever seen and Only Love makes me cry each time I watch.

Garrett Hedlund is my addiction. I'm not ashamed of admitting it. He has had my heart ever since I saw him on the Troy website, which was late 2003. For over 4 years I've loved him and I ever have him tattooed on my body (yes, a real tattoo). I don't think there will ever come a day I stop loving him.

I am a loving person, though sometimes I can be a complete bitch. I love helping other people out, especially with designing them graphics. I enjoy designing layouts and showing people what I am made of. Besides that I love fashion and designing clothes.

Biography
A New Star Was Born

I was born and raised in Abcoude, which is a small town on the border of Utrecht and Noord-Holland. You might not know where that is, so it's best to say it's on the border of Amsterdam. If you live anywhere near Abcoude, you might have heard the stories: "they are all farmers and own cows." Comman misconception. I do not own a cow and I'm not a farmer. I live in a terrace house in a normal street. Yes, there are farmers in Abcoude, but I live far away from them.

I was second born, that means I have an older sister, who turns 22 in June. I was also born in June, and I turn 20 in 2008. As a baby I went to kindergarten, when we still lived on the other side of town. When I was in grammar school, we moved to Zilverschoon, where we currently still live. It is just across the school, I can see the school from my bedroom window, which made things easier.

In Grammar school I was boss and gave people orders. You can say I was a bitch, but I just knew what I wanted and when someone would cross me I would speak up. There was a theater which was held every once in a while. The idea was for us children to have fun, to express ourselves and to do something else than learn. There were no real singing, just lip singing. Ever since going to that school, I participated.

One of my first solo performances was as Michael Jackson. I had the mic in my hand, I was wearing one glove and I sang my lungs out, even though the idea was not to really sing. The entire audience could hear me, hell, I could even hear myself. But that didn't stop me. The song was the Free Willy soundtrack, which I loved at the time.

I was a huge Michael Jackson fan and I also loved 3T, which I performanced when I was 8. Me, my best friend and another friend were 3T and we sang "I Need You," which is still one of my favourite 3T songs. After that it was Britney Spears (who I imitated 3 times - "...Baby One More Time", "Sometimes" and "Oops! ...I Did It Again") and Five ("Everybody Get Up").

I grew up during the Spice Girls hype, so of course we wanted to imitate them as well. Unfortunately I was bossing everyone around to a point where they quit and the Spice Girls performance was off.

When I was very young, age 5 or 6, I took ballet lessons. I loved dancing so much. I danced until I was 12 and went to high school. When I was 11, our group fell apart and we had to join the high class, which we didn't like and so most of us quit.

I went to highschool in Amsterdam, because there is no highschool in Abcoude. It was called CSB and even though the first year wasn't that bad, I left after the second year. People were bullying me around because I hang out with the wrong person.

I don't pick my friends because of their popularity, I pick my friends because of their personality. But unfortunately this girl who was my best friend hang out with someone who passed from nerd to Miss Popular. She and my best friend got into a fight and she decided to bully my best friend, as well as me. So my best friend left in january 2002 and I decided to stay home.

That was the beginning of the end, which came way too soon. I didn't enjoy school. I hated it, in fact. The school itself, and the teachers, were really nice, but because of the pupils I left. I went to another school, Veenlanden College, but soon I realised school wasn't really my thing.

Unfortunately I was too young to quit, so I tried my best and passed my exams in May 2005. Then I really didn't know what to do with my life. I was 17 and still had a year to pass before quiting. I wanted to become a fashion designer, but for the school I wanted to go (AMFI), I was undereducated. So I decided to go to St. Nicholaas Lyceum, to study Havo (which was right for AMFI). But after 6 months I didn't want to go anymore.

First I wanted to go to LA to finish highschool. Graduating in a different country was possible, but unfortunately I was too old already (max was 18 and I turned 18 that june), so I decided to quit school entirely and start working.

That was easier said than done. I was very down because I couldn't find a job that fit me, but after a year (yes, I'm ashamed of it) of depression, I found a job at a restaurant that was opening in Abcoude. They hired me and in march 2007 I started at Klein Frankendael Abcoude.

The first two weeks were hell, because the restaurant wasn't finished yet. So we had to help with cleaning and everything and we were all pretty exhausted. The grand opening was at easter weekend, and we worked 12 hours a day. That lasted 3 days, because I was offered a better job.

In june 2006 I had an interview at a private bank in Amsterdam. They didn't hire me because I was taking over someone's job and the woman decided not to retire yet. In march 2007 another job position was open and they hired me for the back office.

When I had the interview I realised I was well undereducated. So I decided to get back to school. A decision that I thought was best. End of august 2007 I left my job (which was already arranged before getting hired, we agreed it was just a job for the summer) and went back to school in september.

Grafisch Lyceum Utrecht, where I would be studying Multimedia (computer design, audio & video). I liked it, but after a week I realised, again, it wasn't what I wanted. So I quit two months later and have been without a job or school since.

Right now the only job I have is designing layouts for people.

Believes/Religion
God

I don't really believe in God. Or at least not in God as a person. The earth is my God, mother nature is the only one who can create and destruct. I don't believe in Jesus or the holy bibel - I think it was all made up so we don't feel so alone. I think people want to believe in a person called God simply because we're afraid of dying and to believe it God, we feel comfort and loved. I must admit that I sometimes question my own faith, especially when something happens that I can't describe but a fact is that no one knows anything. I don't think believing in God makes you a better person or is a ticket to heaven. I believe that if you live your own life like you want it, the best you can, you get to go to a higher place and a better life. But God has nothing to do with it. Does that make sens?

The Afterlife

I do believe there is something after this life. Us buddists believe in a certain Nirvana, the highest rank you can get - what christians and catholics see as Heaven. You have to live your life the best you can, but for the mistakes you've made you're paying a price. That price is to come back to earth after you've died (re-incarnation) and do it over again, this time better. When you've lived your life without mistakes (or have cleared yourself from your mistakes) you've reached Nirvana.

Buddhism

Buddhism is a dharmic religion and a philosophy. Buddhism is also known as Buddha Dharma or Dhamma, which means roughly the "teachings of the Awakened One" in Sanskrit and Pali, languages of ancient Buddhist texts. Buddhism was founded around the fifth century BCE by Siddhartha Gautama, hereafter referred to as "the Buddha".

According to the scriptures, the Buddha taught that in life there exists Dukkha, which is in essence sorrow/suffering, that is caused by desire and it can be brought to cessation by following the Noble Eightfold Path. This teaching is called the Catvāry Āryasatyāni (Pali: Cattāri Ariyasaccāni), or the "Four Noble Truths".

Suffering: Birth is suffering, aging is suffering, illness is suffering, death is suffering; union with what is displeasing is suffering; separation from what is pleasing is suffering; not to get what one wants is suffering; in brief, the five aggregates subject to clinging are suffering.
The cause of suffering: The craving which leads to renewed existence (rebirth)(the cycle of samsara).
The cessation of suffering: The cessation of craving. The way leading to the cessation of suffering: The Noble Eightfold Path; read more.
