Friday: Our Last Day :(

our vacation has finally come to an end.. sigh... i've enjoyed every minute of it.. well for the most part. not the getting lost in antwerpen, or the history lessons on the side of the highway, or in the middle of a roundabout... today, we're just taking it easy.. we went for a walk this morning, and went to my mom's cousins bookstore.. said goodbye.. they said they'd see me next year, when i came back(apparently their son Joost told them i was coming. :S) which is gonna happen, so i don't mind :P we'll probably go to the beach this afternoon, because it is gorgeous weather..i think its the best we've had yet.. and the thermometer has now hit 27 degrees.. i think its a first :)
i now know where i want to live.. in noordwijk.. it is a cute little town, with cobblestone roads, the beach, restaurants on the beach, and just enough stores to get what you need.. its everything i want.. before, i wanted to live way out in the country, in a farmhouse.. but i've changed my mind.. this place is perfect.. well except for the cost of houses; that is outrageous. a house, like mine, here, would probably be around 800 000 euro.. probably more.. an apartment here costs about 250 000.. i know.. its crazy, but i'll figure something out . i have to.. i feel like i belong here.

so tomorrow i'm so not ready to wake up at 4:00 am, to go to the airport, to get on a plane and leave.. i'm trying to convince my mom and dad to stay until sunday.. my mom's cousin is having a b-day party saturday, and i really wanna go... oh well..
when i get home, i'm gonna post my schedule for gr 12.. see if we have any classes together...
i'll see you all later!!! some of you sunday(yes my parents say we have to go to church) and some of you during the week, hopefully.. bye!

    now you know my pain, my hurt, and my frustration.
    it's so hard to go somewhere like holland and come home to this crappy little town.
    and ever since you go their all you want to do is go back..
    every day i'm stuck here i die a little inside, it's sad, but.. true.
    danielle, i will join you, we will buy an outrageously expensive appartment together and abandon this crappy town.
    pff.
    canada.
    also
    HAHA you will be so tired in church BUT i will see you there! and i will be so excited and then one day this week the three of us have to hang out and you will tell us ALL about it.
    i'm SO excited to hear, i'm glad the three of us have been there (now brittany has to go) and it's exciting to share stories when you know what the person is talking about.
    i know you've been sharing on your blog which i have i been following but i want to see pictures and here more stories :)
    i can't wait, miss you :)<3
    see you in a couple days!
