Cup of coffee under umbrella

Yesterday, my friend Little J and myself joined in town for a couple of girly hours... You know yourself, all the "bla, bla", 'have you heard that X got fired from his job?', 'did you see the new fragrance from Chanel?', 'I was thinking of getting a new jacket for the winter....' etc etc.

But except for these casual kind of conversations, the day was a special day... well, we were special (hej hej).
Twice, we showed everyone that girls can also be creative... very creative.

First, in the H&M. The fitting rooms were so packed that we decided to try on clothes in the shop itself.... it was so crowed that nobody even noticed! No waste of time in this mad shop... Efficency and creativity! Yeah girl!
And on the way to the pay point, we avoided the queue by going to the one in the men section. Nobody at the till.
5 minutes all together and we were done... laughing at people while walking up the stairs... and thinking 'Ohhhh crazy ye guys, you should think of changing there ;-)'.

We were so happy when we escaped this mad place and got some fresh air (yes, it is getting really cold now). Fresh air YES, but no rain.... Not for us anyway...
As we were going to Cafe bar Deli to get THE cup of Chai Latte we decided to get a table outside... the weather was good; well, it wasn't raining til we sat at the terrace.
By the time I ordered my lunch and got served, the rain started falling and the best of the story is here... of course the outside blinds were broken... Little J and myself looked at eachother and glanzed at my umbrella thinking 'hum hum.... why not' and we opened it. It was such an experience. The 2 of us... drinking and eating outside, on our own (by the time, eveyone else had left the place) on the teracce UNDER THE UMBRELLA! Brilliant I have to say!
Thanks Little J for this unforgettable moment and beyond all... Hej hej!

I have a dream...

I have a Dream....
Yes. I belong to the minority of lucky ones who knows the real goal of their life . How great?
Since my 10, I have been wishing to become an English teacher. This is nothing original I know... but the passion behind it is real and nobody will ever break it.
Some tried already and failed.
I can't wait for the moment where, I will face a bunch of crazy and 'un-manageable' teens.
Looking forward to it!

When I spiritually met Sam Beckett

I remember... it was dark outside, it was raining.
Nothing had yet brightened up my lonely day except these lines which came to my eyes.
I remember... it was Him who came at dark night.

Molloy....
