We're Making Up For Lost Time.


This post is irrelevant...I don't have anything special to share. I've just been taking some pictures because things are finally getting green again, after the EPIC WINTER OF TWEE THOUSAND TIN!! (2010). Yeah, 'epic' alright. I love ice biking and stacking it every time I got on my bike, and every day ever so slightly I wanted to KILL MYSELF! I basically hibernated for 4 months straight...as well as everyone else in the Netherlands. The weather really sucks here. I was looking at the weather patterns the other day because it was raining so hard and I needed to go get groceries, so I was going to see if the rain was going to move out or stay...well, there was a huge rain system RIGHT OVER the Netherlands, and of course it was bigger than the Netherlands, and all other surrounding countries were sunny....even mother nature doesn't like the Dutch.

 This are getting pretty and green, which suprises me because I thought that this winter might have froze all possible vegetation, permanently. People seem to go crazy once the weather starts to get warm. There are so many crackhead tourists. I literally was almost an inch away from running over 3 people the other day in vondelpark. The funny thing is though if I had run over them, the police would have sided with me because they shouldn't have been in the bike path. Ha. Anyways....I'm done here in a month....weird....

Oh and my new claim to fame is that I was in the background of a movie being shot in Amsterdam. Ha.
