To do list

As per usual I have been blogging in my head and forgot to post everything!Okey this is just partially true now.Its been almost a year that I'm living abroad and I love it!I love it so much I didn't find the time to post about it( and ahem don't tell mr.charming but it's pretty cold behind the pc, I've been sitting here for almost half an hour and my fingers and toes are cold)
 So to tell you whomever you are (if by some chance someone is reading my ramble hihi) a fast recap of whats been going on this year.
I'm almost done with my office slash beauty and sewing center...me so excited!

Before

The all in one storage for now
After purple feast


 Owh and the garden is taking shape (finally!)



 We have a lil addition to our little family.Our sweet Lulu who is a mix maltezer and Shi-Zu or how we sometimes call her :the mop.Sometimes I wish I could film her the whole day to show her sparkling personality.She kinda nuts and eats everything.For some reason she likes fruit and all the healthy stuff.She sure doesnt get that from me!But I havent seen her NOT liking anything this far so lol I think she does resemble me a bit.Thats Lulu after hearing mr.Charming come home..owh and those are my toes and my fab shoes for my birthday :)
I have recently come of age (ROFL) and reached the fabulous age of thirthy......................yay...
The party was a better success than I could've hoped but my dream about a garden party with servers and people who cleaned after the party for me just didn't happen!...instead I took the party inside because of the cold weather and had a morroccan and asian theme going on.All turqoise..turqiouse (how do you spell it? and white.
Hmm I still don't have a 9 to five job but have been working a bit and learning how to use the public transportation..b.t.w. taking the train at 6 a.m. is the creepiest thing there is to do! Will be learning how to bicycle (ahem)
 See my problem is this: I have a perfectly good drivers license thats currently just not appliccable in this country bla bla..Yes I wrote blabla..it's perfectly understandable if you are thirty WITH a license and all of a sudden you need to apply for one again.



Anyway.. this far I have learned so much being here.All the sayings are true about first finding one self before dealing with other people and that discrimination comes in many forms. You can be treated better or worse because of how you look and or where you come from.I have met people who are negligent of the people in european countries because they think they have it better than people from poorer countries.I have met people who think where I come from which is Suriname that there is no structure and everyone walks bare foot or rides on a donkey.This didn't make me angry though lol it was just too funny for words when they realise how poorly they know a country that was once a colony of theirs..and France and England.
Being abroad also made my selfgrowth easier and it excellarated it by the daily explorations of things. I have made amazing friends and also learned you can't make people like you and that I'm perfectly content with that (gringes teeth)
Happiness is a measurement that we ourselves plant in our minds. Like making a good cup of Jo or having your office decorated the way you want it.

Enjoy what you have now and strive for huge smiles tomorrow.
