He’s back !
And so after 6 months Klaas has finally returned to The Netherlands - and he’s not going anywhere anytime soon! When he left at the start of this year I wasn’t quite sure how I would manage my time without him. We hooked up every week as friends and we ate together, listened to music, watched a movie 
had the most vague discussions about politics & philosophy *ughhh* He kept my mind sharp when everybody else around me seemed to have no opinion about things because they never thought about the subject before… 
:ugh:
But during the time he was busy studying in Madrid I really enjoyed my new study at UvA - I loved working hard on all the group assignments we had to do. And I have realized I actually do like group assignments! I used to have little trust in fellow groupmembers and depended most on my own skills & knowledge. But it feels so great to inspire your teammembers and just do your best 
:twinkle: It was cool to see people in my group really work hard for our project while they didn’t want to give their all to the other courses anymore.
So tomorrow I will meet up with Klaas and spend the WHOLE weekend with him 
*hufff* To be honest I thought it was a little too much! But now that I’ve heard his grandmother is also going through a hard time and Klaas’ still hasn’t found a room in Amsterdam… *sigh* My mind is somewhat occupied by other things, but as his friend I need to support him. It reminds me of the time he was really down at the start of our university years 
But at that time things were more worse and he was really depressed. I wasn’t able to make him happy - get him out of that hole - and it lead to our break-up.
It’s almost 4 years later I’ve grown up and now that there is more space between us - I think I can support him as a good friend. I know I can depend on him too, but having a loving family to back me up… I almost never feel truly alone 
Well, we’ll see how it goes - maybe it’s not that bad and I’m just nervous meeting him again. Yeah, yeah - I did see him in April and at the end of May, but still… it feels like things have changed somehow ~
Has the red string of fate that has bound us together been broken ?

Yikes, group projects. I’m still in that state where I absolutely detest them, but it’s good that you’re enjoying them now, since group work is pretty much a requirement in most classes! Maybe one day I’ll see the light, but until then… *grumble*
That’s so nice, with your friend returning! Lots to catch up on, yeah?

Yay! I love it when friends return
