Antwerp night


Yesterday I went to Antwerp night (it is an activity of the LC Antwerp) it was very nice there and I had the opportunity to interact more with the people from Antwerp, I am not able to see them so often as the people here in Brussels.
Also before that I went to Yali restaurant to have dinner and it was great as always.
After the drink we came back by car (thanks Yali for the ride) and I realized that there are no good radio stations here in Belgium, all the stations play 70s and 80s music, it is very very strange that.
Anyway today I have been all the day alone on the office the other guys are working some where else (it is nice to be alone on the office sometimes, but I miss the others it is more fun with you guys around)

Walking on the empty streets


Yesterday I went to have dinner with Nele (she went to Italy today) and after that I came walking from the center to my house, and there was no body on the streets, not even cars.
It was very strange, so I was just walking and thinking and hearing music.
I love punk music so I was hearing Simple Plan, I heard Welcome to my life song and it was the first time I was hearing and thinking about the lirics and that song is great, some of the lirics really reflect what is going on in my life.
So here are the lirics so you can read this very cool song, but if you can hear it it is much better.

SIMPLE PLAN LYRICS
Welcome To My Life
Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you
Do you ever wanna runaway?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
That no one hears you screaming
No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like
To be like me
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more?
Before your life is over
Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you're bleeding
No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like
To be like me
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
No one ever lied straight to your face
No one ever stabbed you in the back
You might think I'm happy but I'm not gonna be okay
Everybody always gave you what you wanted
Never had to work it was always there
You don't know what it's like, what it's like
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like (what it's like)
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life

Cold Weekend

Well it is Sunday afternoon and the weekend is almost over :(
This weekend weather started to change and it is getting very cold here, somebody told me that this is just the start and later it will be really cold. (I am really looking forward to freeze myself here).
This weekend nothing interesting happened it was just a chill out weekend. Today I went Lucila and Daniela to have lunch and it was great I ate so much food (It was great to have real Latin American food, I love arepas, or what ever that is done with corn).
Well since I like putting pics on my blog here is one of my outside a chocolate store here in Belgium (there are so many of those cool chocolate stores here, that you simply need to go in and eat something).

Week so far

Well after being back from Serbia, life here in Brussels is ok, I am very busy but still I have time to go out with friends.
Yesterday I went with my "german friend" to walk around Brussels and it was great, everytime I walk around the Grand Platz I fell more in love of this city and also having the company of my "german friend" made it more special.

Also today I confirmed why People Development is the best thing you can do in the MC, I had very interesting conversations today :) with some members.

Well that is all for now, finally it is a weekend, but I have no plans so far, so it will be just a relax weekend.

Back from Serbia


After one amazing week in Serbia I am back in Brussels :)
Being back in Serbia was a great experience, I have so many nice memories of that country that it has a special place on my hearth. Also being a chair during their NLDS was something incredible, it was the first time for me to be a chair and I was really nervous but I think I did a great job, delegates were telling me that they had lots of fun during the conference, so that is a good sign that I did a good job.
Some things that I will remember:
- It is good to be a foreigner in Serbia you get so many attention :)
- Food is cheap and very good
- People is very friendly
- Girls are beautiful
- Blueberry beer is great

I am on Serbia

After almost 2 years I am back in Serbia and I can say that the country is more or less the same way I remember it.
Today all day we have been on preparation for the conference and later today I will go to visit the city.

Also yesterday I ate the biggest hamburger I have ate on my life, it was huge the size of the meat was almost as a mc donalds burger so you can imagine the amount of meat.
I love hamburgers but I could not finish it.

Tomorrow we go to the conference site so I do not think there will be internet so I do not know when my next update will be

Saturday in Brugge


Today it was great day I went to Brugge and I had a really nice time, Brugge it is a very nice city it is a place all of you need to visit.
It was great to be with Oumamya, Karla, Boban, Patrick, Natalia, Yonke, Peter, Nele and Arne.
Nele thank you very much for organizing this day.

Well about the party plan for saturday night it was canceled, there was no train to come back from the party and I had the crazy idea to sleep on the train station but a very nice girl (you know who you are) avoid me of doing that.
Next time I will plan it better and when I go back from Serbia I will go to have fun in a party outside Brussels.

That is all for now, tomorrow I will be preparing to be chair in Serbia (today Boban told it is a real challenge to be chair in Serbia, but I am sure I will do it well)

Flight cancel

Today I got a call from the travel agency informing me that my flight to Serbia was canceled.
Now I will go to Serbia on Monday, I just hope they do not cancel my flight this time.
Also for sure this is the last time I fly with Alitalia also during our trip to India they really gave us bad service and now this....

Cleaning day on the office

Our office was a complete mess so today was cleaning day (we have found some really nasty stuff here) but now the office is looking more nice.

This weekend I am going to Brugge and then maybe do something on Saturday night (party or something similar) and on Sunday I go to Serbia.

It is going to be again a very crazy weekend, but I have lots of expectations....
