exams and exceptions

Working and exams isn’t a good combination.I’m very tired and I’ve got the feeling I’m underachieving.
So I talked with one of the lecturers and as planned, he agreed to an oral examination.I’m better that way, anyway, because those written examinations, especially multiple choice, drive me nuts.
I spend more time studying, because I’m a bit of [...]

a new job

Earning some extra money isn’t always easy for students.
Some weeks ago I went to a kind of job-market and left my name at some stands.I didn’t expect anyone to call back, but one did.
Last fridaymorning I was called and invited for a meeting that afternoon.I was so happy the busses were riding again, so I [...]

busses are moving

Finally!
Weeks they have been on strike. Weeks!But yesterday it was announced: the busses are riding again today.
16 million governmental money to warrant better payment was an offer they couldn’t refuse.
Strange is, that I’ve got kind of used to streets without busses.It’s a lot safer for a bicyclist.
I regularly used the buss in the evenings, because [...]

Another footballgame won

It’s unbelievable!We’ve won again at the european football contest.This time against Roemenia.
Many people had concerns about the exchange of 9 wellknown players against others of the team.They said they didn’t have enought contest experience.
Well, they have now.
Even about the lawn no word has been said anymore.It was soaked last week, and a dutch firm got [...]

Day full of practice

Today we had a day full of activities to prepare us, psychology students, for a professional carreer.
Our whole building is filled with psychologists, but for this a therapist was contracted. One who worked with adolescents in a private practice.
Nice guy, but I’m not sure if I would tell my deepest secrets to this guy.One of [...]

Parties!!!

It’s so festive in the centre in town!
Many young people celebrate the fact that they’ve made it through their final exams and others are completely nuts because the footballteam won with 4-1 against France, after they won from Italy earlier this week.These European championships are a huge success until now.
When shopping I got some funny [...]

rain, class society and feeling cheeky

The weather has changed from tropical to ordinary rain.
So when I arrived at university this morning my hair was wet.Not that I care, but when I arrived at a new group for a new course one of the “ladies” told me that my hair was wet in such a way that it was as if [...]

Another exam finished

Yesterday I finished another course with an exam.I wasn’t very nervous, untill it turned out they’d changed the place.We needed to be in another building of the university, and I’d never been there.
I was very happy not to be the only one who had to go there.Ofcourse we arrived just a minute before the scheduled [...]

Welpie

It was so crowded at the shops! Unbelievable!
Especially in the oldest grocerie of our country, as we call the shop when we don’t want to mention the name, the people were almost pushing each other aside.
Lucky nme had to visit the shop twice. One time for the person I’m helping on saturdays, and one time [...]

Friday’s Feast 192

Appetizer
When you drink soda/pop/coke, do you prefer to drink it from the bottle, a can, or after pouring it into a cup?
It depends where I am.When I’m at a large university party I’d rather have a bottle or a can, so I’m sure no one has dropped something in it.
But when I’m with friends a [...]
