Ik had nog geen aflevering van de serie Prison Break gezien, maar toen Zus de hele dvd-reeks van seizoen 1 leende, besloot ik dat daar maar eens verandering in moest komen. Dat heb ik geweten! Maandag 3 uur, dinsdag 3 uur, woensdag 1,5 uur, donderdag 4,5 uur, dinsdag 3 uur en vandaag nog 1,5 uur. Wanneer komen de dvd’s van seizoen 2?!

I get in the overloaded train, a little bit sad due to study troubles. But a guy with superlong legs manages to cheer me up. So when I don’t hear the bus driver call my stop and find myself still in the bus when we reach the final stop, I don’t care!

Finally I get to my destination: a students house in Utrecht. Jenny from www.hospitalityclub.org organized a meeting. When I come in, there are about ten people (mostly from Utrecht) and everyone can still sit down. But when the evening proceeds we are with 30 people (from the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, England, Brazil, Bulgaria and even Australia), standing everywhere.

Around 3 am most people leave, off to the different HC-hosts. I’m sitting on the back of the bike of Misha. We bump through Utrecht, but when my legs really start to ache, we arrive at his place. I crash onto a nice mattress and get a fresh pillow out of the plastic. Nice! I immediately fall asleep and when we get up we have to hurry to the station, because a second meeting is on the agenda and we’re traveling to Nijmegen by train together with Jenny.

We arrive at the meeting place at 4 pm, because you can never trust the NS as everyone knows… We have a drink, have a chat and make a little round through ‘Nijmegen by night’. We get delicious do-it-yourself chocolate milk (cup of warm milk and a block of chocolate on a stick, sooo nice!) and proceed to the house of Milena, picking up new members along the way.

Some people go to the supermarket to get food and beer. When it arrives, we cook. As good as it goes, in a student’s house kitchen for 25 people! But we manage to cut all vegetables without cutting fingers, the salad is great, and even the spaghetti and sauce are good

When we finish most of the alcohol after midnight, we go out. To club NDRGRND. We dance, we dance some more and I sit on a nice couch with a nice guy who may not dance. Time flies when you’re having fun: at 4:30 am the last people leave. I don’t know where everyone went, but I get back to Milena’s house. Luckily there is still some space for me (6 people in her bedroom, 3 people in the hallway, 3 people in the bedrooms of roommates, wow!).

In the morning (uhm.. far afternoon) we have a nice breakfast including fresh pineapple! Then we go outside again. Do some more sightseeing, including a stop at a little fish stand. Again, the day is over before I know it. We go to the supermarket to get some ‘stroopwafels’ en ‘pepernoten’ for the Belgium people and then our already small group splits up again. I can get a ride to Utrecht and then catch the train home.

I’m sooooo tired that I fall asleep when my head touches my pillow. At 9:30… I say: let’s do this again soon!
