Sitting cat Welcome to my home-cooked journal.
Here you will find my rants about every day life and things that keep me busy.
In the past I have frequently written, but there's no saying if I'll continue on that path. It all depends on how busy I am.
Have fun reading my scribbles.
Somewhere in the middle

The exiting stuff I mentioned in my last post (omg... 30th of June.. time flies) didn't work out the way I hoped. There's a small atelier/shop here in Amersfoort, EvaGoDiva, where the most awesome felt creations are made. I applied for an internship there, but the positions were already filled. We had a good 'interview' though and my contact details have been written down, for when they have lots of work and might use my help. Haven't heard from them since. I tried 'walking in' last week but the shop was closed. Dead end?

Still some weeks to go before I'll hear from StudioFonkel. I was determined to set up a website with Drupal and get into SCSS (two things they use but I haven't worked with) but haven't gotten further than deciding on a Drupal distribution (Gridly). Nothing designed, installed, tried, done yet... There was a Coursera course (animal welfare), belly dancing (much fun, but even the teacher isn't sure if she can teach me new stuff....), meetings, Exit preparations, rehearsing 'When I fall in love' for an upcoming wedding, and other excuses. Not that determined then, ey? Perhaps this weekend.

We've decided to skip the Summoning because we didn't look forward to all the hassle with the sh*tload of stuff we always bring. And the weekend before (so last weekend) was Parkfest and the weekend after will be a wedding and departing for Friesland (2 week vacation). Though I'm not a big fan of sailing (Matthijs is) I'm looking forward to two weeks away from home and work. Parkfest felt great, four days of camping and folk music and dancing. Though the Friday was very rainy, the sunny Saturday and Sunday morning made up for that. And hey, Matthijs got to McGiver a shelter for cooking on Friday, for the real outdoor feeling. ;-) Very cozy with the rain dripping on the tent.

Got to get back to work now. Bleh... my heart is yearning for doing creative stuff; sewing, felting, embroidering, whatever. Not programming. I sincerely hope that StudioFonkel can change my view on web-things by just being different and doing different stuff than Brevidius.
