Haven't updated in ages!!
What's been happening?
1. I'm in uni now, trying hard to get a master in ... I have no idea how to translate it to english. Trust me when I say it's fun :)
2. Moved out of my parent's house to live in the city I go to school to. I live together with 4 other people. My best friend Fae moved with me. Two of our friends (Sjoerd and Dieter) moved in with us. And then there's the quiet, shy girl that already lived here and is totally getting blown away by dinner conversations. We can't help having an opinion on everything and wanting to share them ... loudly. The poor girl can't get two words in. But we laugh a lot and we do a lot of things together (cooking, cleaning, watching strange things on tv, ...). Sjoerd is obsessed with the lesbian thing and tries to catch me havin sex with ... well, no one since I'm single! It makes for strange situations. I told him to stop or I would infect his computer with granny porn(Yeah, I'm not kidding!)
3. My grandfather was diagnosed with lung cancer right before I moved. He's been getting chemo and is actually doing okay for the moment. He'll have to stay in hospital next week to see if the chemo is working. All in all, he's taking it well. We've been talking about cancer, chemo and death for the last weeks. It's strange because usually he isn't so talkative to me but lately, when we're alone, he'll start talking about how he feels and what he thinks about it all. But as soon as someone else walks in the room, he shuts up. I feel horrible for not being there for my family like I always am. I'm the one of graduated college a social worker so everyone always comes to me when they're having problems. I'm the one who listens to them and now I'm not there. Which might sound stupid but it makes me feel bad. So I've been calling everyone (something I never did) and we talk on the phone. And I'm sending my granddad cards with random babbling of my life. It makes me feel better :)
4. My mother and I are in a yoga class! I never thought I would be able to do yoga. I've always danced. I like the way my energy flows, the way my body moves, the way I can feel my muscles tense up when I'm dancing. When I'm doing yoga, I can still feel all these things but it's different. It's not an explosion like when I dance, it's calm. Might not be a bad thing since my life regularly explodes now.
5. Sofie got me completely addicted to Grey's Anatomy! No kidding. At the end of August I had to stay inside a lot since my medication wouldn't work anymore and I had to stay still 24/7 because moving hurt like hell. So Sofie called and said, "I know you're bored out of your mind so I have the perfect solution. It's called Grey's Anatomy." and my response was, "I do not need hospital drama to make me feel better. I've got my own doctor to give me that!". Of course Sofie didn't listen and brought me season 4 on dvd. And now I'm addicted! I'm totally into the Erica/Callie thing. But Meredith keeps whining ...
Okay ... I think that's it for now ... I got to catch my train anyway. It's the weekend and I'm going home to my parents.
Bye!
