Running away or running towards?
I love running. In all honesty it’s more like jogging, but I love the word running so much that I use it as the one and only description for my sportive activity. Someone told me once that I am a runner, running away from my problems. Although it may seem so from the outset, I [...]

Graffiti stained walls
For the first time, in days, if not evening weeks I feel like blogging. I’m going through a blog dip. It’s rather obvious, my postings are becoming shorter and less interesting. I’ve been contemplating why this is, and have come to the following conclusion: Firstly, it’s my busy schedule. Although Reinout still is of the [...]

Pigging out
When you have been starving yourself for the best of three months, there is only one thing on your mind – food! In most cases I can continue my diet of fruit, vegetables and meat without any problem, but as soon as I’m invited out, my discipline fails me. The last 48 hours I’ve been [...]
Unsettling dream
I didn’t wake up with the greatest of feelings. Woke up around 5 o’clock, and then tried to fall asleep, but couldn’t. I must have though because I few hours later I was woken up by Reinout. I was confused, still in a dreamy state of mind. I had a terrible dream, which had associations [...]
Antichrist by Lars von Trier
There’s a film I’m eager to see - Antichrist by Lars von Trier. Although I love the small independent films, I have seen very little of this enigmatic filmmaker. But I love a well produced thriller or horror flick, and the trailer looks more than promising. What’s even more promising is the response from the [...]
Goals and priorities
My blogging is becoming somewhat erratic. I have to force myself to take time for it, just like the gym and even spending time with family and friends. The enemy to my hobbies spells OnlineSalsa.com . It’s a good enemy though, in fact my best friend at the moment, providing a boost of energy. But [...]
Getting branded
I wouldn’t describe mine and Reinout’s relationship as a particular normal one. But what is normal? After a while, even the most quaint and outlandish becomes ordinary. I’ll give you an example. We have many endearing words for eachother. I call him Sweetie most of the time. He calls me everything from Petite Jolie and [...]
Salsa or K1
Salsa party or K1 @ Amsterdam ArenA? When Renout mentioned a couple of days ago that he was going to see K1 on Saturday I immediately asked if I could join. Ever since I came to Amsterdam I’ve always been fascinated by the posters for these events, plastered on underground tube stations, concrete pillars and [...]
Strange feelings
It’s funny, I find it more difficult to write about current issues than past ones. The past is the past. There is nothing we can do about it, apart from accepting it, learning from it and learning to live with it. Although there are certain parts that I still find hard to be open about, [...]
