Things Come With Time. (XY)

In my life there have been various occasions where people have told me that "things come with time".

"Things" being the variable on the Y-axis.

Time being the obvious X-axis.

See now I don't do math, because it's not an interest of mine.. but I now do understand that the X-axis should always be your friend, your companion in whatever situation..

This week passed by reasonably fast, truth is; I had a blast. I hate to admit that because it would be so much easier to say that I didn't have fun considering the feelings I have about being in Holland..

I went out multiple times this week. I was invited to a birthday party and I met up with 5 other girls to head there together.. Turned out the birthday party was in a student location called MAKE. The night there started out with an amazing band on stage who would play any requested song live. They were truly amazing, even when we requested songs like "little wing" by Jimi Hendrix they just started playing as if it were their second nature to perform any kind of song.

The atmosphere was great, the drinks were delicious, and I met a bunch of nice people. For the first time since I've been here I witnessed random hook-ups between people in my class, flirtatious guys, and drunken sing-alongs. When the place closed at 3am. We were all still in party mode and decided to head to a club. The walk there was was cold, but very nice. As I was kept warm.

When walking home at 6am I realized I'd lost my voice, and still hadn't completed the Task for that days class. and it all felt good.

Next days class was funny because me and my 2 friends still had no voice. Class participation was somewhat difficult ;)

That night I had met up with one of my friends to go for dinner in this place called "Kiwi".. good girl bonding times, and after a delicious dessert (with for sure gazillions of calories) we headed to see Inglorious Bastards (finally!!!) great. great. movie. Props for the director, and the actors.

After that another bar adventure, and the next day I felt more than ready to start my first day at work!

This post is a very factional explanation of my week but there's so many emotions running through me right now that I don't really know how to write them down..

In 2 days I'm heading back home and I'm hoping to find things there just as I'd left them about a month ago.. Once again.. things come with time.. So we will see about that.

There was just one thing I wanted to mention. Dutch people just create such interesting slogans for their companies/bars.

Slogan of my gym: There is more to life than brains.

Slogan of Make!: Study hard. Party hardER.

A tiger never loses her stripes.

With love,

From me.
