maandag 29 maart 2004

Short update: went to Emmen on Friday night and stayed till Sunday night. Watched Idols (goodbye Alice...), played tennis for the first time, tried 'kibbeling' (kinda like fish nuggets, if such a thing exists), rode bikes to Emmen centrum, had a really awesome dinner (tiny grill on the table, everyone cooks their own little bits of meat and fish and stuff), talked to my dad via Martin's webcam, etc...

Anyway, it's now Monday and I've e-mailed my teacher my assignment along with the message that I unfortunately won't be in class today since I have to register online for UF classes. Only problem is, ISIS is still "closed for internal maintenance". I know they do that at night, but it's almost 8 AM there now...

Everybody wish Lotte a fast recovery - she's not only got a cold and a fever, but has to go to the hospital and to the hand doctor for that finger of hers (the knuckle keeps popping out of place)... heel veel beterschap!!! xxx

Oh, wow - I totally forgot - I'm supposed to be having dinner with Pauline and Anna tonight! Good thing I just checked the calendar... I don't have a clue where we're supposed to be meeting, just "somewhere at five". OK then... SMSing now...
