Two worlds.

As you probably know, today was my last day on this adventure. Tomorrow I leave for America once again.

I didn't get to see Soldaat Van Oranje because some bitch scammed me on Marktplaats. I got my money back but that doesn't help the fact that she robbed me of my only chance to ever see it. Whatever, I saw Isabel (a Dutch friend of mine who came to America for a year and was in my class in high school. She was there when I met George :-)) We hung out at the National Monument in Amsterdam and some drunk weirdo conspiracy theorist kept talking to us about the most absurd things I have ever heard. Did you know that America is responsible for all wars, that 9/11 was an inside job and that art is only art if you do not call it art and put it in a museum. Apparently, everyone's life is art and him living on the street as a drunk is art as well. Wow, looks like I really need that Masters to learn all these things because I seem to be sadly uninformed.

Anyway, after that  had lunch with Edwin to say goodbye. He said he's going to have a barbeque with the other interns but since I'm leaving, we just had lunch. I'm glad I did this internship. I learned more than I would have thought and I know this will benefit me in the future. AFter lunch, I met up with Gerbrechje and Kaho and we hung out and got a present for my grandpa since his birthday was the next day (today). It's sad to think I won't be seeing them for a very long time when we spent so much time together at work and we've become such good friends. Gerbrechje and I were supposed to go to the musical that night but since I got conned, she came over and we went out for drinks and hung out and had a sleepover.

Today we celebrated my grandpa's birthday and had a good time.

My new matryoshka was a hit :-)

Sushi for Patrick and I (We were almost the only ones who like it).

The birthday boy showing pictures from Prague.

I also put my grandpa's pictures from Prague on my laptop so here are a few:


Picking out my Matyoshka!








Then it was time to say goodbye. I have decided that "Two Worlds" from Tarzan is the theme song of my life (not because I live with Gorillas but more because my life is divided in two worlds).
