New house, new life

OK, so it's official, all of you can now congratulate me because as of Wednesday I'm a proud owner of an apartment down at the Amstel river.
It wasn't a pretty process, I have to say! The amount of obstacles I had to overcome to get to the point where i signed all the damned documents was very upsetting!
It got to a point where I just wanted to give up on the house and get rid of the whole thing! But I was strong to my intuition and kept fighting for it but could not have done it if it wasn't for a few people that helped me all around the tedious task of getting a mortgage in the country of the Low Lands.

But that's all water under the bridge, it's now time to look forward and think about all the nice things that will come with it, which should be actually quite exciting! I've never really owned a house so finally I get to plan a nice interior design, buy the whole furniture and make it just like I want it to be! Painting, moving all those things that come with the new house can also be a big hassle, but damn it, it's my house and I'll do it with great pleasure!

Then of course comes the expression "New house, new life"!
I guess that includes me and I just hope it's a better life then the one I got now :-)

Back in Time

Last time I was in Portugal I couldn't notice that my parents had bought a really nice printer with scanner and all that, I have to say that I was very impressed!

Anyway, it was there on top of the desk but not installed of course, guess why they insisted so much for me to go there? :-)

It was obvious that they couldn't install the printer and I never had a printer with scanner so I was very excited and I started to test it. Then I thought how should I test the scanner? Then I remembered, why not scan my old pictures when I was really young? - I thought I was a great idea so I started working on it and this was the result! Enjoy :-)
