imatges de Brussel·les

Vista des de la finestra de l'Álvaro, club de jazz molt xulo. Tenim concerts cada dia, i desde casa! Aquí el sofokolín menjant un petit suís (o petit gervais, aquests francesos ens ho canvien tot). Vista del monstruo des de la llunyania, el Parlament Europeu. Les meves collocatrices i jo: avui ens donen les claus del pis, per fi!!!! I foto borrosa de la bona vida: sóc molt feliç, aquí, però enyoro massa Barcelona, a la família i als amics...

one day or an other...

Ok, you should know that when I say tomorrow... means that I will be some days saying to myself, tomorrow, tomorrow... Vuelva usted mañana!

But I have been quite busy trying to understand how the parliament works, and how is going to be my job. I'm just having kind of idea, but I can tell you that my colegues are really nice.

About the appartment... finally we are signing for it tomorrow... Thus, my new bible is Ikea's magazine, I am really studing how to furnish ideally an empty flat. I am sorry for Roberto Bolaño, I have to combine my reading time between Los detectives Salvajes and all those strange swedish names for beds and tables (Besta, Inge, Standford, Andras?).

Hopefully, they are going to be all of them at home, an Anno curtain and a Besta cupboard, etc. And from that day on, you are invited to try them, my flatmates have no problems with visitors, so search a date!

Little by little I am less foreigner and more bruxellois, I am attending arabic classes again, I'm trying to force myself to practice some sport, I wish I had the time and money for belly dancing classes (I miss them sooooooooooo much!), I'm going to cinema festivals, I know the streets, some bars and restaurants... in counclusion, I am the perfect guide for those wanting to discover Brussels. ;)

I miss you too much. There are 50 people from natolin here, but on són els pelmes dels meus amics de sempre? No us vindria de gust venir a viure uns, diguem, dos anys i mig aquí? Petons a tots i a totes.

So... this is life!

I have been thinking a lot about the conveniance of continuing my blog, as it was concieved as my Natolin personal diary. Finally, half of the natolinians are in Brussels, and I am still "at the edge of myself" so: here I am again!

Yesterday I took an important decision for my future life, and that is why I put the song of the Cure in my previous post. I said yes to a cool job offer, I am now one of the assistants of a Catalan MEP for the Liberal Party. I start with some fears, I always wanted to be far from political colour definitions, but I am going to learn sooooo much! And I really believe that he is a great polititian, for the curious ones you can see his website here http://www.guardansxeuropa.org/portada.php

Oh, my internet café is closing... just another new: hopefuly, I will have my appartment (with internet for sure!!!!) next month, as we are signing on tuesday. I will explain more tomorrow!

Waiting for your comments, as always...

So... this is it!

Say this is it
Don't say maybe
Don't say no
Say this is it
Don't say hold on
Don't say slow
Say this is it
Don't say next time
Don't say when
Say this is it
Don't say later
No, don't say then
Just say yes!
Do it now!
Let yourself go!
Just leap!
Don't look!
Or you'll never know
If you love it
You might really love it
If you love it
You might really love it!
Oh come on and love it!
Yeah, this is it
Don't be cautious
Don't think twice
This is it
Don't play it safe
Don't put on ice
Yeah, this is it
Don't chew it over
No don't kick it around
This is it
Don't wait and see
Don't try to work it out
Just say yes! Do it now!
Let yourself go!
Just leap! Don't look!
Or you'll never know...
If you love it
You might really love it!
So don't tell me
It could all go wrong
No don't tell me
It could all be a mess
Oh don't tell me
It could all be a waste of time
Just say oui! Si! Sim! Da! Ja! Yow! Igen! Kylla!
Just say yes!

The Cure
