Sometimes I think you're writing on here as a made up character. Because this is almost a bit to good to be true.

yet your writing is meticulous, you sleep with runway models casually, own an apartment of such stature that it has its own door camera, and have a plethora of incredible stories to dispel at your pleasure....


no offense dude but i've thought you were making this shit up for a long long long time

My handwriting is terribly sexy, I can't deny. Runway models are overrated, for the one girl that gets famous and all the cash (brushy brow) there are thousands that don't but are still models and we just decided it was a practical thing to do. (For which I'm lucky)

It's her apartment and her door camera, it's not big or pretty or even terribly nice and I pay 400 bucks in rent, which isn't much in Amsterdam but still a hefty amount for a student.

I can understand, stuff just seems to happen to me, and I have the tendency to share things that happen to me.

Also I completely fucked up my middle or secondary school or whatever you call it. And I have no father any more. Not everything is great.

Well, if I had a model roommate, I would also consider it the practical thing to do.

And I'm sorry about the eyesight thing, I don't see very well myself, and it sucks. Also not having a father must be terrible, can't even imagine.

But please, keep writing and sharing your stories. We love them!

She came up with the idea one morning after a really drunk night when we had sex. She thought a boyfriend was impractical due to her traveling and involved too much drama but she still wanted too have regular sex.

She is kinda strange, at home she is almost always naked or just only wears a shirt/hoodie, even when my friends are over. Can't complain do.

Friend who studies law sent a letter with the logo of his dad's law firm (which is pretty well established) to my uni. Result: suspension withdrawn and a million apologies.

fuck yeah.

While it sucks I can't run and chase this snow that's falling, its at least keeping me from having to go to a work dinner tonight. So at least the snow is on my side and not just laughing in my face. :)

I'm sorry to hear that. I don't think i personally can understand how you're feeling about this, cause i never had a dog, but a lot of my friends were really emotional about their furry friends passing away.

the thing i hate most about taking my bio exams are not the actual exams them self, but the fact that the grade is delivered directly after you take it because it's done online. i like to have that waiting period where anything can happen or you have a sense of false hope leaving the classroom.

I'm a recruiter for a recruiting agency. I just can't sit at a desk and do the same fucking thing day in and day out. I'm trying to get a job within event marketing... well see how that goes.

Just went with her to the vet, pneumonia, didn't expect that because she didn't had a measurable fever.
So she either gets better in a few days on some antibiotics or she has a lungtumor.

But she's 13, which for her breed (wetterhoun) is quite old, they usually barely go past 10.

Been on here so much more since I got injured. I wonder what percentage of NS is currently broken, and how much we post relative to the uninjured folk.

Done with knee surgery, the surgeon didn't tell me until 10 minutes before he was going to split up my shin to transfer a tendon, it's painful to say the least.

entertaining the idea of attending college in Spain.....


when I look back thirty years from now I want to be able to say I did what I wanted to, whether it was good for me or not.

Are you admitting that you want to do things wrong? It seems like that since you're almost accepting a mistake before you make it. Which should mean that you're being consciously irrational given that 'wrong' is always a negative.
Go to a school in the good old US of A. Fuck bitches and drink beers and enjoy yourself. Different isnt always better and few things are better than North American College parties.

wrong isn't necessarily a negative... when you do something wrong it's not necessarily a bad thing

i was trying to highlight the uncertainty of the decision, because it is very uncertain... a lot of things could go well or go poorly and i could end up loving it or hating it... but when i look back in 30 years i want to be able to say that i followed the path that i wanted to follow regardless of the risks... even if i do end up hating it completely i'll still be satisfied that i stayed true to what i wanted rather than settling for something i don't want quite as much.

Yeah the definition of 'wrong' is always negative. It can be subjective and differ from person to person, ex: it is wrong for a Christian to eat meat on Good Friday given their beliefs, but it's not wrong for others.
Then there's wrong like 2+2=4 or 'P and not P' which never change.

When I look back in 30 years I want to see that I did everything right. Not some invented opinion which I have that 'following my heart' is right.

That's why I thought it sounded like you want to do something wrong: you value the Stan Marsh idea that following your heart it paramount.
I prefer the more robotic 'do right', ie do what makes me happy via physical pleasures

but couldn't you say that if you never experience the mistake you'll never have to learn from it.

i.e. you do meth, end up in the hospital after you OD, THANK THE LORD IM ALIVE ILL NEVER DO METH AGAIN!!

this all could've been avoided by using common sense and not doing meth.
