Does somebody want to explain to me why S's computer wouldn't let me type more than a certain amount of text in here last night? It didn't make any sense - as far as I know, you're unlimited in the number of characters you can have. So I had to chop a few sentences out of my Poland story. Not that it's not long enough anyway :) but it's the principle of the thing.
Today's a busy day... I slept like a rock (unsurprisingly) and so far I've gotten my film developed, bought the Veldhuis & Kemper CD that MediaMarkt didn't have (yay for Free Record Shop, even if their USA shipping sucks), gotten a new strippenkaart, gotten scrapbook stuff (can't wait to go home and start), and bought 3 T-shirts at H&M. Yes, T-shirts - I know it's winter, but I'll wear them as layers, and besides, since it's now cold outside, the Dutch seem to think it's their duty to keep it three times as warm inside... so it's nice to come in overheated after a 30-minute bike ride and immediately strip down to cool off, instead of having to sit in a heated room in a sweatshirt. Anyway, point is, I've had a fairly productive afternoon (and spent a fair amount of money, haha!) And now I have to go to Edah since there's no food in the house, but then I'm going to start on my Dutch scrapbook, yay!
But my pictures came out a little 'funny'... Mom, help me explain what I mean here... like, sharper, and the contrast between light and shadow is more pronounced, and colors seem 'stronger'. (Before you ask: the color film was 200 and the B&W was 400, so that's not it.) Maybe they have a different type of processing here? Oh well. They're still fine, they just don't look like Target. :)
OK, gonna go now.
