Loveland

DSC04060
My brother won two tickets for the Loveland festival, he couldn't go however, so Yan & I went in his place. Even though I occasionally like to hear some dance songs (e.g. Justice), dance isn't really my favourite music. There were seven different stages and since I only knew a few of the DJ's that would be performing, we were walking from one stage to another constantly, to see which stage had the best music.

There was also a ferry that could take you from one little island to the other side of the festival. After we waited for it for the first time, and it was full, just when we wanted to board, we decided to walk around, take pictures and then return to the ferry. The second time we couldn't board again, but next to the ferry was a raft made of some sort of rubber tiles. Some people went to stand on the raft, 'cause they figured a boat was going to pull it. However, shortly after Yan pulled me on the raft, the boat sailed away without us! In the meantime, the raft was slowly drifting away and we couldn't jump back onto the shore. Luckily the ferry returned and pulled us along...

Bye bye ferry...

I had a lot of fun that day. The best part was in the evening at Ron Carroll's set. The T-Dansant stage was right in front of the outdoor pool of the Sloterparkbad and they had those rubber tiles placed on the pool. We were literally dancing/bouncing up and down on the pool, which was really cool.

Introducing...


...Mr. & Mrs. Tjoa :)

My lovely friend Liliane and her fiancé Stanley got married! The day started with the wedding ceremony in a very cool church, with Lil's church band singing, they were really good. Lil looked stunning when she walked down the aisle, I was so happy for her :) In the evening we had dinner, with another great band. They were singing all the big hits, which made us terrorize the dance floor haha. The wedding cake was gorgeous! It was a 6 tiered cake, surrounded by 10 other cakes on top of ice. It was truly an amazing wedding, I had a warm and fuzzy feeling the whole day :) Congratulations to the beautiful couple!

Beautiful church

A Sunday Smile


Cousins united: Helen, Ben, Steven, Tjon, Liyani, Cat, Nancy, me & Wing

I know summer just started, but I'm kinda already having a barbecue overkill... Had a barbecue on my birthday, my brother celebrated his birthday with a barbecue on Saturday and then we had another family barbecue the next day: Fun nevertheless, but it is just too much...

Cuteness overload!

"Tikkie!"

Girls only!

This photo of Liyani & Nancy just makes my heart melt...

My birthday was this Saturday and despite the not-so-great weather, I invited friends over for a BBQ and cocktails. I had a real blast, it's been a long time that I partied this extreme on my birthday. I couldn't remember the last few hours and the morning after wasn't much fun, though...

Last


Well it's my last week here in NY :( Can't believe that I've been here for six months already... I'm excited to see everybody again, but still: I don't wanna go home yet! There are so many things I still want to do/see/eat! Good news is that I'll be returning with my cousin Wing Ni (she's here since 19th September, her birthday!), which means I've got someone to accompany me on the flight and someone to help me carry all my stuff ha!
Although it was Wing's birthday that day, she was pretty knackered from the flight, so we just had some udon at Udon West in East Village.


Cute little sake bottle: what's inside it, is pretty good too ;)

The next day we went to Chinatown and Little Italy, where they held the San Gennaro festival that weekend. With all the food stands, it looked a little bit like Koninginnedag in NL. We got home pretty late, but still decided to go clubbing haha. First we went to Thor, which looked really nice, but it was more a place for having drinks. Then we went to La Caverna, there were a lot of cheesy people, but we had a good time nonetheless.
Last Saturday we had brunch with all the roommates (minus Raf), because Jeremy got back from Tanzania earlier. We wanted to go to Cafe Habana, but unfortunately it was packed, with the waiting time to be an hour. Since we were starving, we went to Cafe el Portal nearby, where we started with margarita's at 13.30 (a NY brunch isn't a brunch without drinks haha). After brunch Wing, Jeremy, Ryan & I went to have another drink at L'Orange Bleue ;)
That night W & I went out in Meatpacking. Went to One, but it kinda sucked. After walking around, we randomly stumbled upon an Asian party at Earth ;) We met some great people there and when the club closed, we all went to Koreatown for some karaoke, haha good times...

High


Went to Highbar last Wednesday. It's pretty small, but has a nice view (which you'd be able to see if my camera didn't suck...)
