Keepin' You in the Know

Okay, so I know my blog posts have been less frequent lately, but here is what has been going on...
I have to make this short because I'm at a friend's house right now.
Actually, my school is on vacation right now, and I was sort of planning on going to Paris for a few days, but that didn't work out so actually I've just spent the week chillin with one of my American friends and with the Dutch girl whose house I'm at right now. Basically Queen's Day wasn't all it's cracked up to be. Yes, there was a lot of orange and lots of drunk people, and Amsterdam was super crowded. There were also a ton of people selling stuff on the side of the road. But really, it wasn't like, amazing or something. My friends and I ended up just sitting on the sidewalk talking about our futures. That was after we pushed through masses of people to find a quiet place. Oh, I think I was on the national radio or something like that, because a woman came up to me and was like:
Woman: Can I interview you for the national radio?
Me: Yeah, of course!
Friends: No way.
Woman: Okay, so did you go to Amsterdam for Queen's Day?
Me: Yes.
Woman: What did you do?
Me: Not much, just walked around and saw a lot of things.
Woman: Uh huh. And what was the strangest thing you saw?
Me: Everyone just peeing in public.
Woman: Where are you from?
Me: Los Angeles.
Woman: And people don't do that there?
Me: No way!
Woman: So you're waiting for a train right now?
Me: Yes.
Woman: What time is your train?
Me: 9 o'clock.
Woman: Is it on time?
Me: I hope so.
Woman: Okay, well, thanks. *takes microphone and box thingy with her*
Best. Interview. Ever! Right?
No, not really, but whatever maybe I'm on the radio. In Dutch. Hehehehe.
Uhhh anyways, so one of my American friends was supposed to just spend the night at my house, but it turned into a week long hang out with our other friend where we basically just ate, biked, and watched tv. Which is a pretty awesome week, if you ask me. My friends can cook really well. I can't. Which is why I was the DJ. I set the moooooood y'know? The... cooking .. moood.... whatever. I was important.
*Not really*
But yeah... it was fun. We watched a lot of Modern Family. Like, a lot.
But this weekend I have to do work for school. I have a couple of projects due soon.
Not to mention stuff for college! You'd be surprised at how difficult the roommate questionaires are.
"Which temperature do you prefer? a. cold. b. fairly cold. c. fairly warm. d. warm"
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..........
(I know, if I think these questions are hard, I'll never graduate. Boo hoo.)
Anyways, like I said I have to keep this short. We're going to watch some more Modern Family. And eat calamari. Oh yeah. Best. Week. EVER.
Tot ziens,
Emily
PS I biked in my pajamas, which was awesome.
