Birthday Alex

| | Tickle My Senses (2)

I have to go to the Docklands this afternoon because I have to return a Karen Millen dress that I intended to wear at the wedding but I changed my mind. It's a beautiful strapless dress but somehow it doesn't feel right. I'll meet up with A. after I've taken the dress back to the store. I have no clue where but I gave him a map of the catacombs and maze of passages of Canary Wharf, which makes navigation over the phone much easier. I can tell him which way and where to go to meet up for a drink [since he's always in doubt I'm always the one to make the decisions]. I'll have to cancel I. who was going to pick me up because it's easier and quicker to take the DLR.

Then at 20.30 we'll meet up with eleven more people since it's Alex her 20th birthday [A.'s niece] and she invited all of us; I., C. [parents], James [brother], A. [uncle], myself, Christina [colleague from the Times], Andrew [bf] and some more friends. We're going to have dinner at Smollensky's, Canary Wharf. I had a look at the menu; yummy stuff and lucky me some healthy things too! I'm still suffering from a serious sinus infection so hopefully I will be able to taste something! Well I'd better sort myself out and get my stuff ready. Talk later!

ps I realise you must be thinking, why does she need to get ready now, it's because I totally f*@%^£ up my shoulder/arm last Saturday, trying to lift myself from a low couch to reposition I reckon I've wrecked a tendon in my upper right arm/shoulder [yes the bad arm]. I've been in pain ever since and can't move my arm in certain directions which is causing awkward situations at times. A. is not around to help me so everything takes twice as long today... *hehehe* emoticons/tongue.gif

Here you can read about my expat life in London: the latest news, concoctions and crazy thoughts I might have every now and then... Pictures will be added as well if what is on my mind can't be put in words...

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.
