Week 13... Time is FLYING

Well today, the 4th of May is a very special day for me here, it marks 100 days since I arrived in the quaint little country of Belgium and started causing trouble! haha
So this week I did quite a lot. We will start the week at Thursday because we had a long weekend this weekend :D


So Thursday became friday afternoon substitute and off for a drink we went. That night came another party. It was incredible, kinda like Big Day Out but with DJ's rather than bands. It was just for the night but we had a LOT of fun. When I arrived it was happy hour so that meant that it cost only 1Euro for a half litre of beer. So the party buzzed with excitement until 2am when we all got tired and went home. A good night had by all.

Friday I had to do a bar shift for Rotary, they host this thing called the Blanc Bleu Belge, it is basically a competition for cows, which farmer has produced the most tender, muscley and butch cow. THEY WERE HUGE!! Anyway it is like this big day and so Rotary asked me if I would mind helping, of course I didn't mind at all. So Friday morning rolls around and I am up nice and early to go help. I arrived at 10.30am and everything was already in full swing. I do believe that I served about 200 beers and over 400 cokes! Barmaids watch out! So with that done I went home for an early night knowing that tomorrow was going to be HUGE.

So Saturday came and my host mum, sister and I went to Lille in France to look at the old buildings that conveniently had been transformed inside into boutique shops. It was GORGEOUS! We spent a very long day shopping as always and looked in the boutiques that we only WISH we could afford (D&G, Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger) they were all so gorgeous!

Well that was my week.
Next week promises to be just as full of excitement.


So until then,
Missing you all heaps!
