Sorry it took so long to post about this, but I now have brand new hardwood floors in my apartment! Okay, so they’re not really wood. They’re laminate. But they’re painted to look like wood! That has to count for something right? I never knew what was involved in putting Read more…
Wow. It’s hard to believe it, but this past weekend was my very last MBA weekend. All done. Finished. Finito. Never again will I have to get up at 8:30am on a Saturday and spend all day sitting in class. Never again will I have to stay up the night Read more…

I have been seriously remiss with my posting. Apologies. But as you can see from the photos taken by other people here and here, I have been very busy. Last Saturday I played Ultimate on the beach at Scheveningen from 10:30 until 5:00pm. It was a beautiful sunny day and Read more…
