The Symmetry Scandal

Few weeks ago I tried this for the first time.
The Munchy Box!

it is amazing.. but damn.... couldnt finish 10% of it :P

> This < is just awesome!
Food here is ok, don't get me wrong but a nice "rookworst" or a "lekker broodje kaas" hmmm... Seriously craving that... It's a shame they dont have HEMA worst :P

Why do they always come at times when you least expect it or need it?
aka at 3 at night when you have work the following day?

Ok, I have been neglecting this...
Thanks Thomas for giving me a subtle kick in the right direction :P

My move to Scotland has been good so far, had a minor setback in may and I went back to Amsterdam for a weekend but all is fine now :)

Moved into my flat here and started work. First had 2 weeks of training and then I wen "live" troubleshooting printers *yay*
Loving Glasgow really. Would love to live there, but it's not possible yet :P

Soon I'm moving in with a mate of mine, Paul, to cut the costs a bit. His roommate is moving back to Holland so he asked me to come live there. Gonna be loads of fun ^^
Apart from that, life as usual I guess, Work / free time ;)

Went to Lyle Hill today, which is a viewpoint in Greenock
(Wiki here!)
Mark (friend from work) and me walked all the way up, which wasn't as bad as we expected, from all the horror story's we heard! After that we wanted to take another road back and we ended up on the golf course, which was a bit awkward :P
Since we didn't take the "normal" road anyway, we had a look at the cemetery.
Went into greenock for some groceries after. back at his place we watched Equilibrium and had some food.
Had a great day but now I'm starting to doze off ;)

Oh before I forget, some piccies here :)

Last year in July I went to the concert of Leonard Cohen, one of the best experiences in my life and I regret not going to more concerts of him.
This week the dvd Live in London hit the shops and my mum keeps telling me it's awesome *jealous*
Looked for the cd on spotify and luckily they had it!!!
Listening to it now, goosebumps and all, Love this man and his music!

So much happening at the moment, forgot to update here.
I'll give a nice little overview :P

March 13th I moved into my new flat, don't have any pics at the moment but it's really nice. It's a one bedroom flat, nice living room, kitchen and bathroom (bath yay!!) Oh and a balcony! I'm really loving it, eventho it's not in the greatest neighbourhood. (have to do groceries with the bus -.-')
The same day Lewis came over which was really nice, hadn't seen him him in a while. Ofcourse he came over AFTER I moved all my stuff & boxes into the flat :P

Next week I started work at IBM for Xerox tech department. Since I worked at Imabari on my own for a year I was kinda nervous about having collegues again, but it turned out all good. Nice Dutch team, very social and I felt quite welcome.
Had a lot of training on how to troubleshoot for Xerox and it's actually quite fun. Just the amount of things... was SO tired everytime i got home :P

Lewis came over the next weekend again and I tried Haggis! It wasn't all that bad to be honest. Think I was just thinking to much about WHAT i was eating, wouldve enjoyed it more without my mind wandering off what part of the sheep I was chewing on NOW :P

This week has been the same really, more training, more tired :P Went to Dundee friday to visit Lewis and we're going to watch the match tonight, Holland - Scotland *grin*

Moving into my new flat tomorrow! I will take loads of piccies and once I have internet I will upload them ^^

Went to some little island called Cumbrae today, was very very pretty. Will go into more detail soon, way to tired now :P

Today I had an appointment to view a flat at 11am in Paisley. We entered the appartment, being on the 3rd floor.. and I nearly cried. It was half of my old flat and this was a studio >< Could barely move in it. Went to 3 other agency's in Paisley but all the flats were quite expensive and small.
From Paisley to my work it's about 30 mins by train and it would be 70 pounds a month. Figured I should look at places in Greenock because it was the same price range.

First 3 letting agents were shit >< nothing in my price range. Last one I went had 2 flats, we could view both immediately.
First one was small and smelled bad lol, but way better than anything I had seen before. The second one blew my mind :P It was really nice, lots of new furniture etc.

Decided that I will be taking that appartment, eventho the rent is a bit higher than I like ><
Got a nice linkie! Link!!!

Will be moving in friday or saturday.
Me has a happy!

My mum and me left to Newcastle with the boat from ijmuiden on monday at 6pm Dutch time. Arrived in Newcastle at 9am. Road change was difficult at first, going a lot better now, but damn, changing sides is hard, remember you where thought before crossing a road. First look to your left, then to the right and left again and cross the street. damn, hard changing that after 23 years :P

After we got off the boat we went to a little shopping mall thingy with parking spaces to redo all the boxes etc I took with me. Closed the door and drove away. We heard a big BOOM and we looked back, door open, few bags all over the street. Oh yes xD

Ofcourse we took some wrong turns here and there and we freaked out cus we forgot on which side of the road we had to be etc etc. But we got there!

I'm in Largs now.. The owner of the B&B told me to find a place here because it is so beautiful, and it is, it really is.. but erm.. kinda dead aswell :P being used to Amsterdam... no :P

Have to go from PC... more updates soon!

Clearing the last few things together with Renée and Richard out of my appartment, cleaning, cleaning... blah.
Tonight finally some decent sleep, tomorrow afternoon I'm leaving o:
Emotions still all over the place, leaving friends, family and my sweet cats behind.

I will keep this blog updated regular updated again once I have internet in Scotland, telling AALLL about my adventures ^^

anyway, need to go on again, sigh -.-'

Emotions all over the place!!!
Moving to Scotland in exactly 2 weeks and it's just weird, seeing people for the last time, going places for the last time.
Next week my cats will be leaving to my grandparents, Packing all my things, leaving my house.

Haven't been sleeping well for ages, just really want it to be over with. Have some peace in my head. Want it to be quiet and relax for a night. Just doesn't seem to be possible.

In 2 weeks I'm there and I'm sure it will look way better then, just have to hang on for a bit I guess ^^

Finally got the word that my pc was fixed and running again. Went to pick it up with my dad in Rotterdam because they forgot to send it and with Christmas it would take ages to actualyl get it, so we decided to just drive there.
After waiting half an hour I finally had my beloved pc back. Walked out the door, dad wanted to start the car... which.. didn't happen :P
Seriously, am I doomed?
