books books books
An update on some books I read recently:Soulsurfer
Bethany Hamilton
Nice story, I like to read biography's. This one is from Bethany Hamilton. She was attacked by a shark and lost her arm due to this. She also had a personal website: http://www.bethanyhamilton.com/
Miracle from the streets
Cheri Peters
A very touching story. It's really unbelievable what Cheri all went through. It's pretty shoking too, this book really touches you. Once you start reading, you sure wanne finish the book. I actually did read both books in one breath.
last picture of my trip to the USA
Well, the most beautiful ones you will only see in my scrapbook! A good reason to visit me.
And this is a picture of one of the Falls in the smoky's. Meigs Falls. And Plufke is crazy about Falls, we saw 4 Falls in the Smoky's.

privileged to be in an American class... sure cool!

Back in Belgium
Hello everyone,
I'm back in Belgium. Yeah, I know I have been neglecting my blog a bit. I guess I bought too much scrapbook stuff. Since I've come home, I sure have enjoyed scapbooking.
I mainly worked on some little books for others, and of course I did continue to work on my trip to the USA in 2004.
I sure can tell alot about this trip. I will put some pictures on this site. Some things that come to mind immediately when I think back on this trip are the nice times I had with Trudy. I sure enjoyed throwing some icy water on her... (lol).
Victoria, Trudy's niece, invited me to her school which was cool, too. She had to do a report on Belgium. The student's had the opportunity to ask a real Belgium questions...which I enjoyed very much. Another thing which was very nice was the "bearhunting" we did at the smoky's, and with success, we did see a bear in the wild, didn't try to give it a hug though.
There are still a lot of stories I can tell, and I might tell more later on... but that's it for now....

relaxing in the States
Hello everyone,
I have been gone for a bit here, but now I am back. I am spending a vacation in the USA. I am just back from Florida. Did spend a little week over there. We had a lot of fun at Daytona Beach. We also visited the Holy Land Experience Park in Orlando, which was also neat. On sabbath before easter I went to Collegedale and got to see a wonderfull pageant. It was called Sonrise, over 100 actors helped to perform. It was about Jesus last days, his death and the resurrection. It really looked professional done, I liked it very much. Now I am in back in Tennessee, and tomorrow we will leave for Chatanooga.
I had already the chance to visit an ABC-store, and bought some neat things.
I sure do like the scrapbookstuff they have over here too... so so cool. It looks like I'll come back packed like a donkey. (Troodel already has fun with this idea, she's sitting next to me imitating a donkey.) Well I sure do like vacation days, don't miss my job a single second. Greetings from Veerle alias Plufke.

blessed sabbath
Hi everyone,
Last sabbath was a very blessed one. I organised a special afternoon. Everyone could bring a song that he/she liked and then we all listened to it. The person also told why he/she liked the song. It was a very blessed day. I'll post a song that I heard there which I liked very much.
Sanctuary - Chris Rodriguez (Streams)
Seems I left the innocence of Eden long ago
Tempted by my heart to go it on my own
Beyond the garden
Somehow through the desert of my wanderings alone
You have never let me go
I turn from You and still You cover me
I fall so far - you find me in the deep
Anywhere I am, anywhere I am
You sanctuary me
I have felt the separation deep within my bones
Brought me to my knees crying out for hope
Beyond the garden
Somehow through my tears You heard the words I
Could not speak, You were there to rescue me
I turn from You - and still You cover me
I fall so far - you find me in the deep
I lose my way - you're reaching out to me
Everywhere I go
Anywhere I am, anywhere I am
You sanctuary me

a song I like - with a deep text
"If Tomorrow Never Comes" (Ronan Keating)
Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would she ever doubt the way
I feelAbout her in my heart
If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way
to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face this world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes'
Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel
If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face this world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes
So tell that someone that you love
Just what you're thinking of
If tomorrow never comes
last dinner
Yesterday we had our last dinner with our little group. We will have to say bye bye to Griet for a few months, since she is leaving to work for Thomas Cook. We plan to visit her on her new location although we don't know yet where this will be. Here you can see some pictures of yesterday. We gave her a little scrapbook we all made with nice memories.

Atomium
Sunday I wanted to visit the Atomium with a friend. The line was too long unfortunatly. It was just open again, and I didn't expect that so many people would have the same idea and visit it. Well, still had a wonderfull time with my friend though.
