  1. Good afternoon all! I'm back! I'm sorry to disappear for so long but my life change completely four months ago ! Now I live in Amsterdam with my boyfriend! (I'm from Spain for all those who doesn't know). To sum up everything a little, we wanted to emigrate for so long because I was jobless in Spain and in general the situation in Spain is far from good. Finally my boyfriend found a job in Amsterdam and we decided to take the opportunity. Once we got here I started to look for a job and I found one in only two weeks! Awesome! Plus it's the job that I ever wanted to have! The downside it's that it's a temporary contract so in February I'll have to find another one... We share a house with another men for 3 months and finally now we have an appartment for ourselves in the center. But we recently moved so we're still with a lot of fuss (hiring internet and everything...) . Now we are trying to getting used to the cold in Amsterdam, the sooner that it's darker and getting around with a bike jajaja. I'm glad that all of you are fine and I hope to be around more often now!
  2. Hi! It's been a while since I wrote here something but I've been a little busy these past months. Starting as a self-employed is not easy! It's very very difficult to find clients and get your name on the door. I'm still working on it. But at least I have some projects to work on. This year I'm especially happy that the Christmas are here!!! I don't know why but I'm looking forward to it! Do you have any plans or holidays for Christmas? I'm staying at home but I hope to have a good time with my friends and family. Now I'm trying to buy all the presents on time because I don't like the last minute pressure. Noll, I'm sorry to hear that you are feeling low . I hope you will be better soon! Athenea good luck in the dentist!
  3. Hi! My boyfriend is on holidays, he has two weeks so we are enjoying the summer, going to the beach, to festivals and so on. However I'm working because as I started as a self-employee 4 months ago I can't have holidays, I need to have new clients and pay the taxes. The beggining is very hard. Yesterday I went to the beach and now a friends are comming to my house to have lunch and then I hope to go to the angient book fair. I want to buy some books. Athenea I hate mosquitoes too I also used ear plugs as Flip suggested. I hope you will rest tonight. Nollaig congratulations!!!!!! Godd luck with the classes Virginia, it seems a bit difficult.
  4. I did some online courses but I would like to do more. however I don't have the time, it's almost impossible for me right now. I like learning and specially if it's related to my degree. I recommend futurelearn and also edx, it has very good courses and universities, take a look.
  5. Here is sunny and a bit hot (23-24º)
  6. Hi! It's been a while since I posted something here! Sorry but lately a lot of things changed. Since April I'm self-employed as I didn't find a job in a company. I'm a graphic designer so I'm designing logos, websites and infographics. I have some projects but for little money, I hope it will be better with time. I'm very busy trying to learn how to get new clients, how to make invoices and budgets and how to improve my little "company". So because of this I won't have summer holidays, but it's ok. I settled a timetable for workig which is from 7.30 to 15.30, usually I finish at 16 or 17hs because every day I have something more to do but it's ok, I have some free time. Now I'm going to Speaking English classes, I want to improve my speaking and pronuntiation. Last week I went to sales and I bought two bikis, one trouser and socks, I need everything so it was a good afternoon. Athenea how was your appointment? Virginia good luck with the Mac and working from home!!! I'm like you now (more or less) and it could be a bit boring working from home. Nollaig what a shame about your holidays!!!
  7. Thanks all of you!! Athenea that curtain is great!!! I feel better, I have a small pain sometines in the wound but it's not a big deal. Nollaig I hope you fell better now, it's sounds very stressful Anna I'm sorry about your dog! I hope it will recover soon
  8. I have been sorted to Ravenclaw
  9. Hi!! I passed my English Test!!!! I'm so happy because I thought I would fail!!!! So now I have the Advanced of Cambridge Certification (C1)!! This week was a bit awful for me because I had an infection in my groin because of a tiny hair that keept under the skin (I don't know how to say it in English, in Spanish the verb is "enquistar" so if anyone speaks Spanish please tell me how to say it correctly) and I had a lot of pain, I barely could walk so I went to the doctor and I had to take some painkillers and one antibiotics and finally I think it's getting better! Now I can walk normaly but sometimes it hurts because the wound is healing. So I couldn't do nothing, I stayed at home and that's it. Next Wednesday it's my birthday!!! I'm turning 26! I think I will go out to have dinner with my parents, my friends have to study and work so I think I will celebrate it on the next weekend. I'm designing my website and re-designing some projects to have a better portfolio so I'm a bit bussy because I want to finish it as soon as possible. And I'm still looking for a job, meanwhile I'm doing some online courses about web programming and design. Athenea How nice that you found a good collar!! Abbie I'm glad that you are better!! How are people in USA? I watched on the news that you had a terrible snow storm.
  10. Frankie yes!!! For Xmas I got 3 of these books so for me is perfect! And today I got 2 more books that are on my wishlist in amazon, so I think that the Kings are computer literate like your Santa jeje. One question: Here in Spain we celebrate the Epiphany with gifts, especially children received a lot of gifts but in some families adults too. Have you got this celebration in your country?
