Sorta like vacation

With no classes left and Tanuki boardmeetings only once a week until summervacation begins, I’m spending most of my time in my hometown. It already feels like vacation. I’ve been eating out at nice restaurants, went shopping, to the movie theater and got pampered at a beauty salon :mrgreen:

My hometown isn’t very big and only has a few good restaurants or ’sit, drink and have a bite’ places. So when a new place opens its doors everyone wants to check it out. Same goes for Zusjes de Boer (Sisters de Boer), a nice place inspired by English pubs and also a perfect place to have a drink and grab a quick bite during the day! I love the style and the menu has some delicious things too. I believe it’s the perfect place to sit down after shopping and have a quick bite without ruining your dinner :oops: I will defenitely go there for a drink again!

I’ve decided to get monthly facials to improve my skin and my mom offered to pay for the first treatment! My mom treated me to a Hydradermie Treatment at a local Beauty Salon. After one treatment my skin has already improved a little, but of course it will take more treatments to see a big difference :neutral: I also got my eyebrows done, but the esthetician kept on plucking *sigh* my eyebrows look nice, but I kinda miss my tomboy somewhat more ‘clean & natural’ looking ones :cry: The treatment ended with a short neck and shoulder massage, but that was sooo painful! I really should get a deep tissue massage to release all the tension *sigh*

Inspired by the Final Fantasy VII Piano Collection CD I’ve started to play the piano again. I have to spend loads of money on other things, still I’m trying to save some money for the official FFVII Piano Collection Book so I can buy it after summervacation or something. Till then I will have to use scans *sigh* I want to be able to play One Winged Angel - fans know the song is insane and even taking a look at the sheetmusic made me sick. But what a nice feeling it would be to say “I did it” after playing it perfectly on the piano :oops: わい — いい感じだね。Final Fantasy VII was the first RPG I played and although it came out almost 10 years ago it remained my no. 1 favorite. Next to practicing my favorite FFVII songs I’m also practicing X-Japan’s Forever Love again :lol: It seems deep down I am a fangirl!

My professor returned the grade of my ‘Marxism in Japan’ paper, although he gave me some extra time to re-write it. I felt so empty and only improved it a little. Still I got a B+, my professor thought it was a good paper and that it was also an amibitious one. Hahah I totally drowned in all the readings so I’m glad I got a good grade :P So now it’s back to grammar from bungotai to kougotai and kanji. Just two weeks of wrapping things up in Leiden to go and I will finally be able to really enjoy summervacation.
