Tuesday, the 15th of January


The past few weeks have been very busy - again- !
I would been able to write amazing stories about those weeks.. but it would take me ages to tell everything.. and it wouldn't even sound that amazing as it actually was..

I guess cyclocross - season is about one of the most exciting moments of the year!
It's not that I like cyclocross so much; I hate the cold and I can't really understand why people love to ride or see people riding in the mud.. so actually I don't really get the clue of it..

But I love to have those other people around me!
I don't really know how to explain, but they are - every year - so different and though so alike.
I guess I just like their way of thinking. They make me think about what 's important in life and how to just be yourself, no matter what. Every year it's like, when they are here, I'm living in another world, a world where everything is possible as long as you believe in yourself.



Hah, right, back to reality..
Because of all those situations with the boyfriends' work (cyclocross) and our house (#ProjectRenovate) we didn't had the time and space to put out a Christmas-tree..


So as a compensation I got myself the biggest Christmas-present ever:

I'll review this one soon!

And yesterday I already bought some Christmas-decoration for next year!
-I love sales!-


We won't be missing it next year!

PARIS-ROUBAIX U23 #3


the morning of D-day!


we found a cute little bakery! Very tasty!!!
We started the day with a little coffee..
but one coffee didn't seem to be enough..
Last remarks before taking off
checking out our guys before leaving!
Oh god, I guess we should win the trophy of nicest looking team if there was a trophy for that!
and of course also checking out my boy (behind the car, left)!
And we're ready!
I was the co-pilot!





Ready for the cobbles!

Woohoow!

Today was the first day at work
at my new job!
I loved it!
I hope I can keep it that way..
the people I need to work with are amazing, the shop is amazing,
I even start to like the collection now I know more about it..


On my way back home from work this was the first song on the radio:


Maybe
I should make it my "song of the winter of 2012"!

It reminds me to the American cyclocrossers Troy and Mitch (oh I miss them!)
because of the funny movie -called Hangover- we could see when they were here..
It also reminds me to that awesome evening with Debby, Sean and my boyfriend.. we all were "a little" drunk that evening :D ( http://popeliernele.blogspot.com/2012/02/thursday-2nd-of-february.html )

And now this song was the first one on the radio when I went back home from an amazing first day at work!


Hooray!

Hi!

it'll be a short message..
need to get some sleep urgently!

but really wanted to post this today!

I had a really reaaaalllly nice day!

First I had to work.. not so funny..
mostly because at work they think I'm really stupid..
but hey, don't mess with me!

But hey! I had something to look forward to!
my boy was coming to the mall with Troy and Mitch,
the two American cyclocross guys.

Indeed! Shopping it was!
and I had an amazing time!

First I bought some warm and cosy socks (only 5€ for 2pair)
for friday, when I go with them to the cross in Diegem! -> Looking forward to that already by the way! and also bought myself that cute little hat that looks like a panda :D or at least a bear :)
okay, it was kids collection, but still.. I really love it! and it was like only 7€ !
I also bought a new bra.. I still had a reduction card of 5€ (only till the end of this week..)


Then the American guys wanted to drink some coffee but on our way I saw that cute little shoe shop! very cheap and nice shoes!! and so I just needed to buy another pair of shoes :D
I SO ADORE THEM ALREADY! they where only 26,90€



Oh and my boy also bought himself a shirt! It's a really nice one! and so typical for him! as you should know he's a bike mechanic.. and he bought it at Zara, so with my discount card it was only 12,71€!

After that we had a very nice coffee! really like that shop! I'll definitely go back there :)
And we had such an amazing diner! It was such an amazing evening! I just forgot like the whole world around me.. and yes, that's amazing.. just enjoying the moment!

At Hof ter Kammen we did a little chat with Troy's girlfriend (haha, she's amazing! and has great taste in clothes!) and we also watched a bit of a movie that we'll continue tomorrow evening..

because tomorrow.. is just another day at work.. :(
they really make me sick at work.. I don't like that, but yeah.. I'm almost gone :)

I'll just live in the moment!
Today was awesome!

Sweet dreams!

They're back in town.
The Americans !
yep, THE Americans.
Not the same people as last year but also again Americans..
and they're so funny! Americans are just funny people..
although, American bikeriders :D

It's just a different culture than ours and I so like it!
But, Americans being here means cyclocross season beginning for us,
so that means the same as being close to people as Niels Albert!
oh yeah, he's cute! He looks almost the same as my boy..
My boy is a little cuter than Niels, but they're really Look-a-likes to me!

Today I went to ACV, it's a trade union, because I though it would be smarter to inform myself a little more about my rights and obligations.. Well, I'm a little smarter right now :D

Totally ready for that Cyclocross season!
Sitting here waiting for those boys to come home..
here at Hof Ter Kammen.. whole alone..
being happy that such things like "Tumblr" exist.
and waiting to bring those guys back to the airport,
just because I really want STARBUCKS! :p
(just another two weeks.. isn't that long anymore :p)
