Living in a trainee house has its advantages, there is a movie night!!! I must admit, when asked to watch the movie "300" I was not very enthusiastic. Wasn't that the one where they cut off limbs for 1,5 hours??? Apparently watching violence is a good way to bond with your new roommates and the movie wasn't half bad, it was actually quite interesting.

Amsterdam is really starting to feel like home now. I know my way to the restaurants for nice evening dining, I know which shops I prefer, I know how to get to my gym and I am not afraid to get hit by a car (or any other moving object) anymore. Today, while riding my bike, I even glanced at another bike cheekily and negotiated with a man on the market.

I am feeling inspired to work on my writing again, which indicates I am bored (or as other people say "zen"enough) to think of things to do again. Tomorrow I plan to buy a writing styleguide recommened by a Harvard journalism course. Maybe I will even read it and then write for a while. Maybe I need more "zen"state for that though.

Let's see what happens next.
