Hello from Holland

Well it has been a whole week and I am slowly finding my way. To be honest I really haven’t been out that much. Mark is franticly working on the final touches of his thesis and I am developing a website for him. Our room is small and crowed with bags, shoes, clothing, books, cd’s, plants, thesis material, computers, ext. I would show you guys pic’s but it is a bit messy and I want to have it all nice and clean before I invite you over.
This past weekend I met up with friends of Mark’s and mine that we met in South Africa. It was great to have the clan back together and funny as well. One of them was describing to me how normal it was to see me sitting across from him, “its like were in SA again”…not exactly. We spent our day chasing down the gay parade that cursed through the canals of Amsterdam and trying to keep track of one another….it was quite funny. And by the end of the night I was saying strange phrases in Dutch that are inappropriate to write on the net. I have found my self being so embarrassed about the language differences. While it is all fun and games to joke around with the naughty words they are putting in my mouth I kind of feeling like a child. I am lost in a world of funny toilets and a harsh language. But don’t worry I hope to start my Dutch courses in September. Soon I will be fitting right in…well I hope so anyway. Until next time…keep America strong! O my god I saw that Lieberman went independent….nice move! BYE
