Guess what, guess what! I’m going to see Jake performing LIVE!! I discovered it by accident. Yesterday, I decided to write something about this artist Jake Shimabukura, the Japanese miracle on the ukulele from Honolulu-Hawaii, because I think he’s totally awesome. I saw him for the first time when following the 2010 TED conference live stream a couple of weeks ago and was caught by his music. So I looked at his official website hoping to find some relevant information to write the piece. Clicked the tour section and saw that it would be possible to see him playing live!! Omg, isn’t that great! A wave of excitement went through my body. I love it when I can combine my traveling with events like this. For once, I am in the right place on the right time! This will be MY night out! Let’s kick some ass!

It is Monday morning and it feels like I have just returned from a quick break holiday. Fact is, it was nothing like lying on the beach doing nothing but actually it was three days of constant retrieval of new information, ideas, impressions. What’s wrong with me? Why can’t I just be brain-dead like most people desire for themselves? I sometimes wish I could be that simple!

Every time I go on holiday I have this idea in my mind. It is some kind of urge to do something exploring and valuable for myself. I have tried to ignore it by booking my ticket to some sort of relaxing place the average holiday person would go to. Nevertheless I found myself ended up renting a car and driving around exploring like crazy. Can’t sit still for long. That’s the way I can find my inner peace to the fullest! And I don’t mind because every time I do so it leaves a smile on my face. So now I’m brainstorming on my next holiday destinations. There are so many options. It is almost impossible to choose! It doesn’t really matter to me which place it will be. Good news about any place on the earth, there’s always plenty of things to explore!

2nd architectural masterpiece this year in my list of libraries around the world to visit. OBA in Amsterdam. Feels wonderful to spend time there!

Het lijkt wel of die sneeuw me in dezelfde verdoofde state houdt vanaf december. ‘t Mag wel dooien nu, next phase! #byebye
