Okay, not true, but tomorrow school starts again, so I’m just going to finally cave in to that whole "I have to get back to some sort of routine" kind of life. I have a few nice things to say though. Like the other day [Friday] Muffin and I went to the supermarket and we saw a Chuck wagon. Apparently, a Chuckwagon is a real something, but I just laughed and took that photo. Muffin said "I thought you might find that funny", then proceeded to explain why: 1. Chuck from Gossip Girl [my favourite character, he's such a genius] and 2. Chuck, the title of Sum 41’s record. I mean, how are we supposed to know what a Chuckwagon is? I just laughed
– but it just got ten times funnier when on the way back we saw a Serena wagon.
haha!
Now that I know that a Chuckwagon is an actual wagon, it’s less funny, but whatever. I’m Dutch, I’ve never used a Chuckwagon, so I can still have fun trying to picture Chuck Bass in that wagon.
So eh, what else? Ya, today I spent time repairing my bike. You have to know a few things about my bike before this is anything news worthy.
- I haven’t used my bike in months.
- My bike has been broken [flat tyre] for months.
- I don’t have a legal place to park my bike [inside] so I just parked it against the wall, tied to a pole. A streetsign-pole.
- Muffin’s bike used to be there too, and I just used his… but then it got stolen
- My bike has had a few warnings before, stating that it was left-behind-property and going to be taken away.
- There was all sorts of dirt on my bike that indicated that it had been motionless for so long.
But! It’s still my bike! Though I don’t really like riding my bike in Gent [because of the way the streets are annoying and trams get everywhere, I'm just really scared all the time plus I can walk just as well] I don’t really feel like having it taken away and seen as pollution. Plus, I figured I owed Muffin one. His bike got stolen, and I used his all the time… so he should be able to use mine.
Soooo… after stalling forever and ever and then some, I finally went out to just get it done and over with. But behold! after all my troubles [it wasn't easy, blah] it wasn’t just a flat tyre, noooo. My bike is factually still broken because the chain is just a piece of meh.
In the end, I fixed my bike, and it’s still not fixed! Gahh. So I have to take it to someone else anyway! Blargh. I’m not really pleased. But oh well. I have to get back to crocheting now, and then rest before school starts again. I wanted to do so much more [I'm working on this theme, and my own desktop and icons] but I’ll guess I’ll finish that some other time and show you when I’m done and satisfied.
Infinite x’s and o’s!

Hahaha, hey, that chuck wagon looks fun!! For some reason I always thought Chuck Wagon was an idiomatic phrase.

Well, Chuck apparently used to mean FOOD! And allow me to say Chuck Bass looks pretty damn tasty

I’ve been back to school for a month now. ;_; I miss vacation…not having to worry about when to go to bed and when to wake up, or how many papers I have to write. But oh well, the months go so fast it’ll be summer again soon!
I never ride my bike either. It’s sitting outside in my back yard…actually…I don’t know where it is. XD
Cute site, by the way! ^ _ ^

A month… pff. I miss vacation too! And I haven’t even had classes yet
– haha. It better be summer again soon, it’s my favourite time of the year!
Haha, well, at least I know where my bike is, but that’s about it. Haha.
And thanks. I’m still working on some things [as you may or may not have noticed] but thanks for the compliment
