Nothing like frosting on a Fall day

So apparently its not Godiva like you think it is. It's Go-Diva. like Go! Diva!. Silly.
So I've branched out and left Brussels proper (not to go to Riga) to visit a friend in Waterloo! And there they had a gorgeous piano and and and..turn tables! I learned how to DJ (in a small way) so that was pretty awesome. then Back on the Halloween express train to Brussels to go out (I was a princess) The night went by fast with Italians and Swedes (and a 2 americans) talking about banking crisis' and meatballs and smart people talk, and if lingonberries were lingonberries in english..which i think they are. (wikipedia says cowberry..but what do they know)

School is schooling along. Though I miss the constant rushness of things. I end up going to bed at like 5 or 6am and then waking up around 3 in time to eat breakfast, do homework and go to school! I guess my brain cant get used to the whole "its ok if school is at night and not in the morning" concept.

I feel like i had so much to talk about...and then i started writing. oh well. I'll be saving up the stories!

Apartment!





Alright, all is well. Finally got that apartment and a good nights rest. Its a wonderful (yet small and overly expensive) apartment, in the bottom of a mansion of two architectural photographers. Its decorated with all sorts of paintings, old books, photographs of sunflowers, worldly knick-knacks and more.
The best part is that it faces the garden, and I have a little door in back and a little veranda and table to sorta chill and take in the roses and trees. Although its mostly raining all the time. So I havent gotten around to doing that yet.
There is also a lot of vanilla tea, which magically tastes creamy..even though its just a tea bag. Wonders never cease.
Today..off to Riga for the weekend for a wedding and to do some banking, visiting and most importantly...buying groceries. 70 cents for a packasge of ramen is too redonk for my wallet!

Heres some photos!

Something new

Well apparently its been a year!
oops.
Anyways, I'm busy attending a certain american university in Brussels! Adventures shall be had, for sure, but for now I'm looking for a place to stay...which I think I may found on the ground floor of some famous photographers house? I'm sure that'll be interesting.
For now Brussels seems like a big faceless city. Like Anytown, USA...or rather Anycity, EU. This may be because I've yet to have some cherry beer, a fresh waffle and a sit next to Manneken Pis. This will all be fixed once I get back from Riga this weekend. Hopefully.
