Barely could walk.
Just being pushed here and there.
Shopping or even walking on the main shopping street of Amsterdam is always an experience.
I have been living in the Netherlands for quite a while. I have seen, heard and done a lot of things and I want to put them down in writing for myself and share them.
After mulling about this idea and retaining topics to write in my head (yes, the most spacious hard disk and the best hard disk ever, provided you're not forgetful), finally this blog comes to life on 21st of January 2010 at 15.13 local time.

Pasar Bantu
Today there was some kind of Asian Market event in Apeldoorn with Asian dances, singer and food and stalls selling all kinds of stuffs. It was a (very) small scale event to me who is used to pasar malam or fairs in Indonesia.
I had kue lapis (spekkoek - that's what they call it here) and it reminded me very much of Indonesia. Made me kind of missing home.
This was actually a 2-day event that started yesterday.

KvK Startersdag 6 November 2010
KvK Startersdag 6 November 2010
This event was intended for entrepeneurs-to-be or new entrepeneurs.
I had a chance to visit it today. The first (right) step towards entrepeneurship (hopefully).
Conclusion: It seems so complicated to start your own business. So many (or too many?) regulations and conditions to take into account.
I'm just going to sleep on it tonight. Tomorrow is another day.
At least today I did something new. I took a great step to what is hopefully the right direction. And in any case, it was a new experience.

Winter Time
Early this morning, the time changed. It went back 1 hour.
So, it is official. We are going into the winter time: it gets lighter earlier and it also gets dark earlier.
How come, you might ask?
Simple.
Yesterday's 8 am is today's 7 am and tomorrow's 7 am. So, if yesterday the sun rose at 8 am, then today it rose at 7 am. And tomorrow it will rise at 7 am.
Yesterday's 8 pm is today's 7 pm and tomorrow's 7 pm. So, if yesterday the sun went down at 8 pm, then today it will go down at 7 pm. And so will it tomorrow.
