the last few days...

THE LAST FEW DAYS. What I've been up to. In a nutshell: eating excessively and catching up with friends, like Franziskus, who I girl scout promise is capable of cracking a smile consistent of more than merely lifting the corners of his mouth. :) he's one of the first friends I made here in Rotterdam. Apart from that, I've just been braving the cold and am ecstatic to announce that it was +5 degrees today, hurray! It's amazing how your standards in terms of "good weather" can go down the drain.  

happy valentine's day

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY. Munching on some valentine's day goodies while romantically working on a case analysis. But no, university, you shall not rain on my parade, one more page and then I'm off to valentine's day dinner, yippeee. 

weekend family fun

WEEKEND FAMILY FUN. + le boyfriend of course. :) excuse the horrible photo quality, the berry of black definitely does not thrive on dim lighting. Anywho, we moved some of my personal belongings into the new apartment, so finally my outfits are not restricted to the 5 pieces of clothing I brought in my mini-suitcase a gazillion weeks ago (it's been a fashion nightmare). Saturday night we went to Very Italian Pizza, I have fallen madly in love with the lasagna. Sunday lazy breakfast at Bagels & Beans, pomodoro bagels, me gusta. Then it snowed a wee bit. Then all the snow melted. Adieu minus degrees? Please let it be.

de bonte koe

DE BONTE KOE. This is what you look like after biking when its -10 degrees outside and ducks become jesus-like and decide to walk on water. Hot chocolate with a chocolate spoon, so appropriate.
