Double Post. Win.

I've decided to make two posts...because I'm bored...and I feel like it? And I gave my blog a "makeover."

I think that I'm going to Berlin soon, which is awesome because I've really been wanting to go there!

I've been really really addicted to good music lately. Specifically, Beirut. Amsterdam has such a good music scene.

Check out this magic --> So leuk

Heel Mooi

Bingo

Lekker

Also, I was interviewed for a Dutch TV show, kind of like MTV, called TMF. (HAHAHHAHA.) I was walking to go pick up my computer and see a man in lab coat, with a giant grey wig (?) and all of a sudden there is a giant camera in my face. I kind of just said "uhh, what are you doing?" Then a microphone is also in my face, and I see the "TMF" symbol on it, and then realize what is going on. I started laughing really hard, and told them "Ik spreekt engels" which means, I speak English. The guy told me that obviously I'm wrong, and speak enough Dutch to do an interview. He asked me something and I had no idea what he said, so I then said again, Ik spreekt engels" and he was eventually like "Oh, well, okay, I'll let you go." Hah. It was probably the funniest thing that's happened in a while.

Blogging Fail.

Helllllo.

I'm back in the world of blogging. My computer broke over a month ago, and I just got it back. I don't think I've ever been so happy to be reunited with something, than my computer. Sad, really.

Christmas and New Years was fun. My mum and sister met me in Paris at my Aunts house. Our Aussie friends happened to be in Paris at the same time as us, so it was nice to catch up with them. My dad couldn't come over from Japan which sucked...but, I'm hoping to make a visit to Japan while my parents are still there.

My friend Meg, from home came and visited me while I was here too. She flew into Paris on the 26th, and then she came back to Amsterdam with me on the 29th, unti the 3rd of January. It was really good to see her.

I also got a new lens for Christmas (that I bought myself) and so I've been taking a lot of pictures with it, because I love it.

I'm trying to figure out travel plans from now until I go home...I think in the spring that I'll get to quite a few places! I don't have much time left. :(

We've had hard packed snow on the ground here for about a month. It's my first "real" Winter...and on a bike it's interesting. I think that I've wiped out about 6 times now, and hopefully not counting.

Anyways....he are some pictures that I took over the Holidays. Enjoy. Happy belated New Year.
