Sunday: The Weekend in Review
Mar. 3rd, 2025 12:34 am◇ Faewish sprites are photobombing bastards and I love them for it. It's great. Infinity Nikki has many delights.
◇ Last night was Kat's birthday! And a vegan potluck. I was going to cook, bought ingredients and then got struck with a headache, chewed three paracetamol and picked up fruit on the way over instead. It worked out fine! But now I should cook the stuff for myself. Maybe on Tuesday after class.
◇ Jonah was the most fantastically overdressed to the party. Apparently his girlfriend dressed him, so I guess she has fantastic taste. Frilly white blouse and a very fancy paisley waistcoat.
◇ Volunteered at the community garden today! It was more people than usually show up, so that was great.
◇ THE BANK ACCOUNT CATCH-22 DEBACLE WILL MAYBE BE SOLVED SOON.
to explain: to open a bank account in the Netherlands, you need a phone number. If you try and get a cellphone number, you must have a Dutch bank account. It has been driving me insane for months as I have had neither. But I showed up in person to try and make one and they tried to shove me towards online but online they. Well. You need a phone number and they try to verify it. And I don't get a message because I don't have a phone number. So they were like mmmm if you realllllly wanna do it in person. We'll make an appointment. And I'll just give them my defunct number and change it once I have a new phone number. This is stupid but at least it should be nearly over.
