New Favourite Things

I love the Dutch.  The Dutch are flipping sweet.  Two days ago, I found an explicitly multi-gender bathroom (with 3 stalls...so it's not like it was a single or something) in the UvA law building where I have 3 of my classes, and the next day I found a second one.  Why are the Dutch so cool!???!  I'd like to think they're phasing out gender, or at least gendered bathrooms, entirely.  We'll pretend they are.

Vernie arrives today!  I'm very very happy :)  I also had something else I wanted to tell you about, but I forgot.  Some days it feels like Christmas because it gets dark so soon.  I didn't have my bike for a few days, which gave me a chance to walk around the city and listen to my "Europe" playlist on my iTunes that I made when back at Wesleyan and dying inside to be in Europe.  It also really made me appreciate my bike.  Even if it's cold to have the wind whipping by you, it's better than a 20 minute walk to class, trying to navigate around the bikes since you're no longer on one!

Also, it's long-john weather here now, folks.  Tis the season.  Long Johns are ALSO my favourite winter accessory ever, in case you were wondering.  Although I'm also enjoying the hat I recently lined.

Don Moon has also informed me how to begin "beguiling" professors into allowing me to do research with them, so we'll see how that goes....Ahh!  I hope I'll have good luck.  REALLY hope.

(I used the word "also" 6 times in this post...and now 7.  Just for the record).
