‘I know where I’ve been!’

So…. I decided to write something on here. The only problem was that I didn’t know what to write, let alone…. what about. OR WHEN!

I can’t believe I’m saying this…. but I’ve been really busy. So busy that I haven’t even had the time to call a good friend of mine. I feel so ashamed. Please forgive me!! But then….. I have never phoned with my oldest friend (the one I know is actually reading this blog!)…. must happen sometime soon. Why?? Well…. that’s the other news I have to write. Not tell, cuzz this is a blog. Why is it called a blog though?! Hmm. Something else to add to the list; Find Out What This Means, and WHY.

Anyway, like I said…. a lot to write about. I’ll start at the beginning.

My previous blog described how I was going to spend my summer. Only…. my summer was nothing like that! I ended up…. NOT going to NYC nor Wilmington, NC. What I did do was ‘house sit’ a friends house for 4 weeks. Total freedom. And I loved it. I loved it sooooo much that it was kind of hard for me to hand in that freedom and go back to the real world with parents involved….. telling you to clean up your mess!

The other thing I started are my drivinglessons. Which of course is totally great. To make it even better…. I will be doing my driving exam on October 29th. I hope I pass…. let’s hope!

Another ‘movement’ in my life has to be the new program I’m following. It’s called International Degree In English and Education. At the Hogeschool van Amsterdam. Which….. will prepare me for a career a teacher of English…. INTERNATIONALLY! I’m only in my first year…. which will give me enough time to find out if I would like to become a teacher…. I’ll just leave all my options open.

I didn’t expect for it to be this good though. The classes are really interesting and the group is very nice as well! Both boys and girls…. Really nice. The first day I connected with two girls; Anna (Dutch but from Spain) and Fran(celise) (> From Sint. Maarten). And we’re still having fun! This week, Titia entered our little group. Also a Dutch girl but I believe she’s originally from Rwanda or whatever. I should re-check that!

Those are the things going on in my life. My friend Lore told me to write her an email…. I did. But I think that reading this blog will explain a lot! We should speak soon, alright?!

Well, I think I’ve written quite a few sentences…. Lore… I hope you will read them. I’ll let you know that they are here for you to read.

For now, off to doing some stuff for school. Not really looking forward to that, but….. Not all the things you do in life can be fun!

And last but not least, a quote from my diary from which I think it is absolutely true: ‘You can only be young once, but you can always be immature – Dave Barry.’
