Awesome Rotterdam Time

I have finalized all AI stuff. Backed up 20 gigs of stuff generated this year and cleaned up my HD. I am an alumna and it feels good :) More space for music and pics :)))

So I forgot my camera, which leaves this posting with no pictures. So what is to say? I just had an amazing couple of days in Rotterdam. What?! Yes, after AI I found a good reason to go back to the city of the Erasmus bridge (Nathan), actually see it and enjoy it.

So finally free of all things that made my life miserable in the past and with my biorythm back to its natural course (going to bed at 6am and waking up at 2pm) I went to Rotterdam and spent some time with some of my friends from the AI team and Nathan, as he had some days off from work.

1. We visited the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen. Surprisingly, not being close to Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, this museum has a pretty ok collection of master pieces. Some Picasso, Dali, Reubens, Rembrandt and Van Gogh, among many many all-times Dutch unknown painters and a bunch of modern art that in my taste scratches too much on every day modern life design (Ikea look).

2. Went to Rink's party. A young new buddy I have made. This super young dude pulled a good party with good electronic music and lots of other stuff close to our old transition house. Started at 2am and finished at 6am. Rink has genious potential as an artist and musician. Plus Nathan, Mick and I had good fun. Lenka joined us later. She is a really cool chick as well as Mick and I hope we stay in touch when Nate leaves R'dam for good.

3. Strobel was playing at the bar with his band and was better that ever. He is always a good artist to see on stage and listen live, but with his band he went beyond. He is expecting a baby and is super excited about it, and the people in his band are pretty cool dudes as well. Spent a while speaking German with them all after a high amount of Baileys. Probably we were all pretty wasted (they were drinking through all their performance) because they said my German is perfect. Which is not, and we may meet next month in Stuttgart.

4. Good late hours in the De Witte Aap as it is becoming a tradition of the gang. Good conversations with good people.

5. Had a really amazing convo with Jeanne and Kiko. We were remembering some people in our term, and creted a whole new theory on self awareness and love. Interesting good stuff. Went to the depths of our sould to go beyond the banana.

6. Played pool with Nate, Mick and Dave. Funny, bold boys :)

7. We went for dinner to my favourite italian restaurant in town, La Borsa. The carbonara rocked as always and Nate was quite happy with the Mascarpone and the fresh italian bread.

8. We went to the movies and watched ZODIAC. We recommend you to wait for the DVD and watch it home on a rainy day.

9. Spent time with Nate. SUPER!!! As always... there is not much more to say. I love spending time with him and have fun, we catch up and deep convos over a smoke... will meet soon again. Feel in so much peace, freedom and balance. He is not only cute, but his thoughts simply wow me. He also drinks Coke from a can and well... I have only good things to say :)

I am happy... really. After so much crap this year, everything seems to be turning around :)

Will spend the weekend preparing for interviews in London on Monday (Yeay! Finally!).

Tuesday I am off again to R'dam :) Will meet up with some of Nathan's friends from back home and will have some good times. Hopefully the weather will be on our side and we will go to the beach.

Friday I will finally meet Zsolti in BPland. Ildi and Ryan will be there too. Yeapeee!!!! Cannot wait for the hungarian food and the good parties. So many friends to meet in few days.

Movie sequences???

Some movies, maybe in a silly way, make you think about your life at that point of time. In the end movies are stories like the lives of the peope watching them. They can reflect the questions in your head. Directly or indirectly just human experience.
