God, it looks like I break my promise to write more frequently every single time. It's nearly been a year!! OH MY GOD!! And so much has happened!! I'm now very busy with my final year of studies, writing my final dissertation and everything.. worrying about what i'm gonna do next, i really have no idea, but one thing is sure though, i'm not taking on another study. Why? Well, first of all, it's very very expensive to follow a Masters program and i'm just tired of studying.
Last night i spent my whole night working on a pitch for the Dutch consumer association, totally boring! I kept on thinking about the other stuff going on in my life! I finished everything I had to do though, am soooo proud of myself (die hard bitch right here)! This morning i'm not feeling too fresh though (yes i did shower so don't take that too literally), am soo incredibly tired...
Anywayz, once again, hereby i promise to write more frequently!
Love, Nicky

Hello everybody and welcome to this update on my life...
I decided that I will try and keep my blog updated more often, cuz once a month or once every two months, just won't do it.
I am still working, in my 15th week of internships and enjoying it very much.. generally speaking, cuz 2day I definitely have a so-called off-day.. my day sucks big time. Watched the European Championships for footy yesterday, Holland had to play Germany and it hurt my eyes... thank god we didn't loose, but we nearly did.. score 1:1.. so we're all good for now.
On the Picture you see me with one of my best friends and a techno party @ the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam featuring Green Velvet, Jeff Mills, Dave Clark & Miss Kittin, it was da bomb!! I had so much fun and danced all night!! On the 3rd of July I will get my partying ass to Awakenings Festival with that same party friend and the experts say that this will be a very good fest as well (outdoors). Really looking forward to my trip to Spain on the 6th of July 4 San Fermin in Pamplona.. see all my friends again and just party all night & day... no worries, no work.. ab fab!!
Still have no plans for the summer, I'll probably go and visit my dad in Colombia as usual, but I won't be going on holiday with my 2 best friends.. too bad.. but hey, we already planned to go to Euro Disney with Christmas and lounge in the Seqoia (or however the hell you write that) hotel with pressies and everything..
Love, Nicky

Wassup people?!
Has been a long long time, but ya know, me being a working girl and all, very very busy.. Still loving my internships and still have a long way to go.. But, some good newz, I'm probably going back 2 spain!! from the 6th to the 12th of july to see the bulls running through the streets in Pamplona on the fest of San Fermin!! Still have to check out the prices of the flights and arrange some things, but changes are looking very positive!! I've been gone from Pamplona for 2 months now and it feels like I've never been there in the first place, even though I miss it a lot.
Well, gotta continue working!!
Love, Nicky

hi ya everybody!
I know it's been a while, but I am back in Holland and let's just say that I have been very very busy with all kinds of things. First of all, I had to get used to Holland again, which was tougher than I imagined that it would be.. Second, I had to find a workplacement for my internships.. found one!! I am currently a working girl at Michael Page International in Amsterdam and soooo totally loving it! People are great, job is fabulous and that's about it... I work from 9 to 5 for a very very small wage.. not their fault, it's kinda normal.. but still..
Anywayz, I still miss Spain a whole lot, but I'll be going back in the summer!! YAAAAY!!
So much for now, gotta work!
Love, Nicky

Hi guyz..
Well.. the last week here in Pamplona has come.. Next week thursday will be my very, very last partying day in the city i´ve lived in for 6 months.. Friday morning, Naroa, Mar and me will be going to Logroño, to see Silvia´s parents and sister for the last time and visit her grave.
The whole idea behind visiting the grave is that we don´t feel that we have closure of everything that happened, I mean, we had like 3 ceremonies in church (I hated churches and religions and now I hate them even more), but all they were talking about was god.. That we should forgive god, that he works in weird ways.. blablabla.. and nothing about our friend.. So Naroa made the beginning of a song for Silvia and we completed it together, such a beautiful song!! So we wanted to sing it to Silvia and an other song that Silvia always wanted to sing with Naroa.. Just to say goodbye and do the last honours for ourselves. I think it´s a beautiful thing.
So saturday morning we´re leaving Logroño for Bilbao, we´ll be staying in Getxo, Naroa´s little pueblito (so cute) and of course, there will be mayor partying there, as it is my official last saturday in Spain. (Throughout these days I will be carying a 27 kilo suitcase, and 15 kilos of handluggage...hello hernia) And sunday.. it´s over.. after all these months (they came and went so fast)..I will be going home.. for a long long long time..
I´m feeling really really weird, I haven´t slept well for a week (had to send my duvet and pillow home by mail), because I´m constantly thinking about what it would be like to live in Holland again, how much I will be missing in Spain (had the exact feeling when I had to come to Spain about Holland, thing is, I don´t like to be the only person NOT knowing about things or NOT being able to laugh about things because I just simply wasn´t there..), that when I am home, my very best friend lives on the other side of the country..and we´ve never lived that far apart in 9 years.. come to think of it, it´s gonna suck..big time..
So this will be one of the last postings about Weekendz In Spain... from now on, it´ll probably only be Other Crap..
Very depressing this posting.. I know.. will have some happier newz in the next blog!!
Love, Nicky

Can´t help it people.. am a total Dory fan.. This little pic is dedicated to Lydia, my friend who has Dory characteristics during studying..
Love, Nicky
God, this is what i felt like during my first exam... like a Dory..
Gimme some lucky fin!!
Love, Nicky
Hiya everybody!!
I know.. I know.. it´s been a very long time.. anywayz..
My social life is deffo on the lowest low point ever since the exams started on January the 22nd (two days after my Birthday, bastards). Yes people, I am getting old, I turned 20.. It just goes down from here..
So friday I had a little get together with my best friends in Pamplona.. two cancelled, cuz they had exams the next.. So in the end we had: Naroa (roommate), Zuriñe (Spanish), David (UK), Myasha & Tom (USA) and Sasha (Canada) and Peter and Sophia were missing, poor things.
We had a dinner first (burritos, fajitas & pizza, nice combo) and a lot of wine.. and around 1 we went out to this bar that looks like a medieval castle from the inside and it´s called " the Clansman", but we now adoringly call it " Medieval", really cool bar. My roommate got incredibly drunk and couldn´t remember half of what happened that night. I got buzzed enough to ring Mr. X´s door for 5 minutes, to wake him & roommates up.. He´s a bastard, roommates are cool, they got dressed and went partying with us.. woohoo!! Me and my roommates have a theory that Mr. X might be guy with one of his best friends.. dunno.. might be.. I finally discovered how incredibly STUPID that Mr.X actually is.. really, how did HE get on the University??!! Probably just one of life´s mysteries..
