    Aw, yaay I imagine it's easier when it's possible to take a train instead of a plane to meet. Hooray for the tunnel, right?

    I read this thread, but I have no love life, so I don't really have anything to post.

    Actually, I think flying would be easier, I just prefer to do it the way I'm used to, hehe.

    Antwerp airport is about 20 minutes away from me by bus, which goes to London City Airport (which is near the hotel we always go to). Can go from there to London Euston, and I'm sure I could do it in less then 9 hours. Which is how long it takes now
    (I take a bus earlier, train to Brussels, wait at Eurostar lounge for about an hour, Eurostar for 2 hours, wait about 2 hours in London and then another 1,5 hours or so to where he lives).

    + I don't think I want to be in a tiny plane, now I'm used to the big ones and loving that, scared the tiny ones will ruin my flight experience.

    ++ If it weren't for me being without a job that long *sigh* I wouldn't have been able to visit so much either :/


    Aww, Amanda ... when you least expect it, it usually happens

    Well I guess since Petteri and I have been married and living together for almost eight years, we don't usually have too much new to mention about our love life. We're both working and both college students, so we're usually fairly busy. But we make time for each other, we both have the same days off a week, Friday and Saturday. I feel it's important for couples to make sure they have same days off together during the work week so you have some time to spend together. I'm really looking forward to us finishing college, and having jobs that we actually enjoy, (or at the very least, jobs we don't hate) that pays more money, enough to have our own apartment, that would be nice... Feels like such a dream to me, I have been wanting that for so long. But being in college, I know we are working towards that goal, but sometimes it feels like it's just going to take forever to ever get to that point.

    Petteri will be flying to Finland in a little over a week, and he'll be there for almost five weeks. I'll be joining him too, but I wont be flying there until August 5, so I'll be there for a week and a half, and then we're going to fly back home together on the same flight. I haven't been to Finland in over nine years, since before Petteri moved to the U.S. But since the flights to Finland are hundreds of dollars cheaper this summer then what they usually are, and they are direct flights, I decided to go too. (We have never seen direct flights between San Francisco and Helsinki, but it looks like they now offered in the summer).

    Tiny planes actually really aren't much different than big planes, they just have less passengers, which I feel is a good thing if you don't like dealing with crowds. Seats are the same size, and there is till an isle way which leads to a bath room at the back of the plane.

    I was exited to go to the UK today, and 'blurted out' (haha) it'll be my last travel on Facebook.

    Next time I will go to the UK, I won't be returning back to Belgium!
    Date has been set. But I'll be keeping that to myself for now until everything is completely taken care of.
    This year though.

    I know I've said it before Nathalie, but I'm very happy for you and Adam. Being apart during a long distance relationship is so hard, I'm really glad you two can put that part behind you and not be separated by distance anymore.

    Thank you! I just dropped Petteri off at the airport yesterday. I was a bit sad but I knew I would be joining in less than three weeks. Plus I am happy for him that he gets to see his friends and family, he only gets to see them once every couple of years or so. But our room mate and his friends just came back from their South Africa trip last night, and they came home only a couple hours after I dropped Petteri off at the airport. We all went bowling last night, which was fun, and it kind of cheered me up and kept me from feeling lonely. And to answer your question, I don't have much college left until I get my degree, just two more quarters! (My college is on the quarter system instead of the semester system) So I should be done by the end of March 2019.

    I guess I've been quite lucky while being very unlucky, lol.
    While not having a job, and being very good at saving made it possible for me to go to the UK quite a lot more then I thought I was ever able to.

    The past week was a complete spur in the moment thing I booked really (only booked 5 weeks ago or so), I absolutely loath my job and the people there, so I really needed that break from it.

    Oops, I missed out on your post, Nathalie Noticed there was a reason I hadn't heard it before on FB either. Anyway - super thrilled for the two of you that it's getting close! Keep us posted!

    And hope the weeks pass quickly for you then, Audra It's good timing that your room mate returned on the same night that Petteri left so you didn't have to feel alone, hehe! Also March 2019 isn't that far away - exciting!

    Thanks Kanu

    Lots of Lion King stuff to pack!
    Not going as fast as I wanted to.
    First with work, getting back in a rhythm. Now for the last few weeks the hot weather, my apartment has been like a sauna the past 2 months.

    Well I guess I can share this here now with you guys.
    After being away from the dating scenario for so long, I... finally got to meet someone. She's the sister of the receptionist at the office I work in, so one day she introduced her to me (actually, she kind of set us up, lol). We dated for about 3 weeks, aaaand now we're in a relationship!

    I was worried at first that we wouldn't match, but turns out we think very much alike, and share some the same love for animated movies and musicals (I took her to see the Billy Elliot musical and we both loved it). I also told her about the TLK fandom and my love for it, and she was really fascinated by it. That itself is a huge relief, haha xD

    We're still in a very early stage, but I'm really hoping this'll lead us to something good in the future ^^

    !! it's NOT on facebook !!

    But ... the process of moving is in full motion.
    Yesterday the furniture and heavier boxes made it to England.
    Tonight they will be back to pick up the rest of the boxes, and tomorrow morning I will permanently leave Belgium.
