Ok now seriously, what did i do tonight. After i finished the first part of my blog of today i went to have a bite to eat at my hotels restaurant. Its empty most of the time, and thats the way i like it. not to much staring eyes because of the fact im eating by myself. Only the waiter gave me a sad look when i said table for one. It made him treat me extra nice dough. I had fajitas with shrimps. It was really good. Really happy to see most of the restaurants have there mexican specialties also with shrimps. Ok what else, checking my diary now, yes i know, im a dork, i write in my diary when im eating so i wont forget anything...
Really funny (at least i thought so). The waiter gave me a water with a stro with the plastic still on. Oww another remark, the white wine is to this point drinkable... And the waiter told me that they always start there shift with a shot of tequila. So if i ever want to make it in this mexican world ill have to learn to drink tequila... (that was after i told him four times i wanted a glas of wine instead of a sex on the beach). I learned that a normal coffee like we drink it, is called an american coffee, the small one is an espresso. And now i have heard how tourist order (ask questions about almost everything on the menu), i understand why they have so much staff for so little people. It is just so different. Belgium has strict rules and yeah u could call it an eating culture. I used to think that is such an arrogant word, but i wouldnt know how to describe it differently. Dining here, it is just so relaxing, no wonder they dont have problems finding staff. Im starting to think we just expect too much. Here there is no such thing as waiting till the entree is finished till they serve the main course. They just serve when its ready. They have never heard of a menu (i wonder what would happen if u trie to explain them why whe have a sorbet between courses). I actually dont know what the proper word is for the dutch word menu, here a menu is like a menucard. Mom, ask Lawson please!
Being here for two days now, also made me realise that i have to learn Spanish quickly, because the people that work in the restaurants and shops, there english is really bad. i feel like im talking or explaning to a little kid. Well... starting tomorow people propably will feel the same, when they trie to explane me something in french or german :-)
ok last topic for tonight. a passage i read in my book that really got to me.
Women says to her friend: "It is wrong to base life on love. Women dont fall for that anymore. From an organisational point of view love has a lot of weaknesses."
Mhmm it made me think... It is kinda true dough. Love indeed is quite unstable (certainly the world we live in now), why would we base(kinda thinking to base is not the same as iets baseren, but too lazy to look it up) important decisions on that... Thinking that there are two types of persons. A) The romantic ones, those who think love is wurt fighting for, and make sacrifices for, and then B) those who think love is relative. Kinda wishing i was B, kinda thinking i lean more to A...:-)
Ok, think ill call it a day, because tomorow is a big day! Byeeeee. And since i write u loaaaads, write me back! Pretty pretty please??
PS: U know what i was wondering, if i would do this (coming her for such a long time) without the internet. Can u imagine us sending letters all the time... internet really does make everything much easier.
