Woohoo! Went to Freakers Ball last night. Got completely trashed. Hurt like hell today. Sucked on some chics ear. Watch the Miss Erotica contest. Listened to music. Drank more beer and some fruity drink thing than I thought possible for someone of my size. Traded drinks with a hot chic two times. Watched a bunch of freaks walking around in costume... it was Halloween afterall.

Uhu... I was running up and down stairs with other people's food and drinks, got yelled at by chef. My boss chose THAT moment to come into tthe kitchen. All in all, my service was alright, but I was knackered. So I guess your halloween beats mine...

knackered? from context I would say fired? Huh?

Seems like one heck of a party!!

I spent the whole day (yesterday) with digging holes and putting all kinds of plants in it. My gf's sister had the crazy idea to put about 7000 plants in her garden . So no party for me and now i'm hurting all over my body. Auw.

and i think that with 'knackered' he means like my condition now (stress i 'think')

Freaker's ball was pretty damn cool. Marilyn Manson, running around on stage, pulling the panties off his female dancers.

Miss Erocktica was kinda lame, IMO, but there was quite a bit of tittie action going on.

Lots of green, lots of alcohol, lots of happy, fucked up people. Sounds like you poor bastards don't know how to celebrate halloween properly.

Unfortuanetly, I had to drive, so I stayed sober, but it was still fun. You should've seen all the freaks.

We don't celebrate your stupid halloween.

Got a cool party next saturday though, after my first rowing match.

Halloween lol...i didn't even know it was halloween, shows how much we care over here in Europe. Still, the party sounds cool hehe.


Arathorn: Rowing match, wtf? I thought they only rowed at Cambridge and Oxford, apparently also in Holland then. Always hate it when ppl make it hard for me to maintain my prejudices hehe.

On a sidenote: i did absolutely nothing for 4 days in a row. Feelin' fine. Oh wait, i'm lying, i did help a mate with carrying stuff to the second floor of the house he's fixing up. Washing machine, drying machine, whole lot of wooden planks for the floor. The washing machine was a bitch. Apart from weighing quite a lot it's impossible to get a decent grip on the thing, damned square box of shit. In the end, we got it up there, after i had both my right foot and left hand squashed between it and wall/floor.

Rowing is quite popular at universities here as well, I believe we are the biggest student sporting club in Delft, but I'm not sure of that.
That party is in Leiden though, lots of chicks there, much better then Delft, with a chickless technical uni.

I thought both Delft and Leiden were student-cities where there's nothing more than a big uni. And stores living of the big uni students.

Leiden is pretty close from here...there have been vague ideas in my head sometme of studying there, but i'm past that now, i guess.

Yeah, both student cities, that's why that party is in Leiden, the rowing club is from Leiden too 9although the actual match will be in Amsterdam, better facilities etc.).
Delft is a technical university: lots of guys, few girls, espescially in my department (mechanical engineering).
Leiden is a university with mainly alpha sciences: languages, literature etcetera... with lots of girls.

You could do your master in Leiden, or are you beyond that point?

Screw my British English, if Americans can't even understand what I'm saying! Djees
Nah, I meaqnt 'tired', as in ... well... Knackered really...

Knackered is correct

Anyway - I despise Marilyn Manson... he is one sick, sad git.....

I'm currently working on my masters; but technically speaking i could go to holland for a year or half a year. The reason why i have considered it in the past had to do with the fact that i was interested in maybe studying history, and there wasn't a masters course at antwerp uni back then so i ahd to think of another uni anyhoo, so why not a dutch one i figured.

But now i study english/dutch instead, the fact that history eventually is a very singular and subjective view kinda turned me off. History is written by the succesful, etc.

history is written by the victor!

I didn't realize you were doing your Master's. Christ, I'm really feeling undereducated all of a sudden. Oh well, I console myself with the knowledge I'm smarter than all my professors.

Hehehe...it's all realtive anyhoo...there's ppl twice as stupid as me who started with me and graduated two years ago. Too bad, academic history isn't written by the smart, but by the ass-kissing.
