if you got some money in your pocket
won’t you come with me
for I know a little bar
the right place to be
we’ll booze some tequila’s
forget our broken souls
sing the empty bottle blues again
’till morning-glory calls
so put your money in your pocket
because I am having none
come on, lets drive into the night
and try to have some fun
Woke up feeling so down this morning…that rarely happens to me.
Yesterday my youngest kid had her graduation, and she did NOT want me (and her dad) to be there.
I was very very disappointed, cried all afternoon, and did not speak to her when she returned home…
Now, after a night sleep I should forgive her and go on with life, but it is still eating me. I am angry with her and sooo sad she denied us to witness her FIRST official milestone. When I think of all the worries she has put us through, to keep her in school, I just can’t help to feel hurt.
Bad feeling GO AWAY!
OMG! It’s already halfway February…
2 1/2 months before we leave to Bali again.
Luna passed her school examines this month, so she is sure she can come along with me.
The first test she failed (because of her attitude, hihi), so the second test she tried her best to put her ego aside, and pass 
Jazz left for 6 months to Thailand for his final scholarship (?).
My clever boy decided to do a boxing match few days before take off… AND managed to break his hand.
So now he’s in Thailand with a plastered right hand, but he’s doing ok and enjoying the Thai experience for as far as I understood.
We make every 2 days cheap calls to Thailand to see how he’s doing, but he doesn’t have internet in his appartment yet, so I have not seen any photo’s yet. I’m curious.
Oyeah, old news, but a picture of my tatto with colors:
my sweet Ganesha guiding me where ever I go…
My seahorse, the only male anymal that gives birth to babies… my father was hoping for a son when I was born
My Lotusses, symbolizing the connections with my family and loved ones.

When four of Santa’s elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the Pre-Christmas pressure.
Then Mrs Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed Santa even more.
When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to give birth and two others had jumped the fence and were out, Heaven knows where.
Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered.Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum.
When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drank all the cider and hidden the liquor. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over the kitchen floor.
He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw of the end of the broom.
Just then the doorbell rang, and irritated Santa marched to the door yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree.
The angel said very cheerfully, ‘Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn’t this a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?’
And so began the tradition of the little angel stuck on top of the Christmas tree .
Yesterday I’ve finished my tattoo. It looks real nice with color, soon as I’m healed I’ll ask Luna to shoot some pictures of it .
Even better news is that I’ve booked the next trip to Bali.
May 2009 Luna and I will leave Holland to live 4 months in Bali. We will live in the ‘benkel’ of my dad and have to stay as low budget as possible.
It will be my first time to stay on Bali for that long and I’m so looking forward to it. Will be a great adventure. I’m doing my second year indonesian language now, and this time I will more able to conversate overthere.
This time I booked a ticket from Dusseldorf to London to Singapore then Bali.
Saved 800 euro’s this way! We’ll be taking our backpacks, so we can travel around by bemo too. If you have no clue what a bemo is..maybe you should google “bemo Bali”
We are brewing plans to return to the Gili islands too.
When we’ll arrive we will be spending 2 nights in Kuta first.
A touristic area in bali where every tourist, except me, has been. Another first timer for me
Luna has an internet friend who has offered us to stay in his guesthouse, for which I’m very grateful of course.
Outside the wind is trying to deroot my only tree, it blowing so hard… Bob Marley is singing for me… my thoughts are in paradise.
sampai jumpa!
YIHAAA!!
I’m happy I didn’t sleep and watched CNN live. Obama made it, and it feels so good. All alone in my livingroom (the rest of the house is still asleep) I witnessed the start of a new beginning.
Obama, not only the USA, but the whole world is COUNTING on you.
Worldpeace may start today!
I woke up at 4 this morning… to see the USA elections!
I’m hoping , like the rest of the Netherlands, Obama will win and start fixing the warzone Bush is leaving behind!
I’m hoping even more, Obama will stay alive for the next 4 years…
