Utrecht, near Amsterdam revisited ...

Posted 08 July 2006



This is a picture of one of the few ice cream vendors in Utrecht ... The reason I chose this picture ( this reads like the composition of an 8th grader) is because I like ice-cream, love Venice and this is Venezia ice-cream vendor ... Do I sound like I'm high with all the weed they smoke in this hostel? ... Gosh, dunno ...

The hostel I'm staying at is unbelievably cool, and not just because I get to share room with guys ... Oh, yeah, plenty of drop dead gorgeous hunks here in Utrecht ... I practically salivate every time I go out the door ... Back to da hostel ...

Well, it's da kind of place that a person fresh out of school and about to embark on a totally different kind of living should experience ... Yeah, most of the people here are around that age - very late teens into their early twenties, and from all over the world - China, Hong Kong, Finland, USA, Ireland, Mexico, Poland, Sweden, Australia just to name a few, which is why I really like it every time I go down to the lounge to chill ...

The TV's on, everybody's watching and enjoying whatever we watch, it feels like we all have something in common ... There's a baby grand piano there where sometimes somebody would play something really good, like the other day this Irish geeky-looking guy played Bach's Prelude #1 on my request, and I just loved it ... Too bad he looks a bit too geeky, though I do find ones with glasses on really cute ... Then last night, this guy and girl played Chopin's Tristesse, and I was ... I was ever so grateful to them, they made my day :-))) ...

The weather is just lovely, it's not that hot, just in the twenties, the full blast of summer still hasn't hit us, just yet that is ... Everybody's relaxing in the park, everybody's enjoying themselves ... and I am having a really good time ...

Updated post

I still would like to travel, even though right now I don't have a job, much less the moolah, to do so ... Rezeki is from Allah ... I have to think positive and pray that a job that fits my experience and ability comes my way ... In the mean time, I can daydream as to where I want to travel ...

So, travel possibilities? ... Somewhere not too far ... Like New Zealand or Hong Kong ... Insya-Allah, one day ...
