We Have a House!

I was on the phone with Carla tonight, she needed my personal info to arrange her wedding next year since I will be her bridesmaid, when the neighbour rang the door bell to tell A. that he accepted his offer. Isn't it great? We are now in business of buying the house and I'm very excited about it. It does mean I will have to fly back to the Lowlands at some point to collect my furniture and other things.

I will also have to paint a lot and redecorate but that will be a pleasure! But first dealing with xMas and new year.

Gosh it's gonna be a busy year next year...

ps went to GP this morning, results are fine, I've finished the antibiotics but have to wait for a referral letter for the hospital and pick it up tomorrow morning. GP wants scans first. I had to see the nurse twice today. Also got a flu vaccination, which was far more painful than in the Lowlands, my arm is completely numb and stiff but I don't care; we have a house!!!

About Tess

Occupation:
- Managing Director

  Web Designer
  Graphic Designer
  Multimedia Designer
  Digital Artist & Pixel Fukcer

Expat Life: I moved from Amsterdam to London, Aug. 2006. Things didn't quite work out as planned and I found myself on my own in a foreign country.

Reflection: 2007 Has been a difficult year but I've managed to accomplish a lot more than I thought I ever could. I've set up my own business, survived a serious health issue, met some amazing people and found my future...

Personality: At times stuck in a time warp of ideas and thoughts, Mixed Blood [Eurasian seems to be the fancy word for it: Indonesian and Dutch], typical Capricornish Goat, Sensitive, Crazy about Apple Macs and anything related, Gadget Girl, Intelligent, Psychological profiling of all kind, Sucker for all sorts of stuff that makes my OS run like: Coffee and Chocolate, Deep Thinker, Perfectionist, Foolish, Silly, Stubborn [WHAT?... ME? I don't think so... tsk, pffft....]

Indulgence: English full breakfast once in a while when not counting calories, Indonesian fried rice and a Sateh [Nasi Goreng] like my great grandma used to make, Thai Tom Ka Kai or Thai Green Curry Noodle soup original traditional recipes, definitely a peaty Islay Scotch preferably shared with my best friends in Scotland [Inge and Frank] and a Dutch coffee when I'm in Amsterdam with a piece of Dark Chocolate!

Proud Owner: Mac Classic †, Mac LC II †, PowerMac 6500 †, Performa 6800 †, Power Mac 8200 †, iBook Tangerine †, PowerBook G4, iPod shuffle, iSight, Power Mac G5.
