Tuesday, me and my girl Lan got this idea that we would go somewhere for the weekend. She's in France studying French and I'm in Holland...so Paris was one of the suggestion...and then we got this bright idea...BARCELONA!
So I got up at 4.00am saturday morning and got a ride with my nice roomate who drove me. Arrived in Barcelona at 09.00am and realised that I have forgotten all information about the hotel, what train and metro to take...so I called my friend Alfonso, and he promissed that we woudl go for a breakfast and he could tell me what to do in Barcelona...so i called him, hoping that he would tell me where to go...ring ring ring...no answer....Shit, what was I supposed to do??? So I started to remember something called CLOT and that the hotel was just accross the street from CLOT. Finally I ended up at CLOT (metro station) and no later tha 2,5 hours after I arrived at the airport. Man I must be the quickest confused person ever...LOL. Checked in, got up on the roof terrass and laid by the pool. Me like. Lan arrived at 1.00pm so after that we started to walk....Sagrada Familia was our first stop...then we saw everything...everything but Camp Nou :(

Look what I found on the World Wide Web...

I just found out that I don't have any insurance playing ball here in Holland. In Sweden I have 6 different insurances, for my home, for my work in Sweden, for my being stationed in Holland, for business trips, private trips and one for accidens like if I would get sick or die. And on top of this I have a company insurance here in Holland if I would get sick when I'm working. That many insurances in Sweden but none will cover me as an athlete playing basketball. For that it takes a special athlets insurance which should be covered by the team. So good I thought, the team here in Holland can insure me. But NO! Since I'm not registered in Holland, their athleth insurance doesn't cover me. That's fucking wack. And I don't wanna hoop uninsured. Imagine if I would get injured bad, that I need a surgery or anything, without any insurance. I don't wanna end up like the lil' dude below here...

Just wanted to say it's been such a good time being home seing all you guys. My family, my girls and the ppl in the office...Going out with you is always a success. I like working in the office in Rotterdam because it's so quite...but the ppl in the g-burg office...you're the best! I miss you a lot!

And to my sweetest little F (5 years old)...you light up my life!

F: Why did you move away?
M: Because I had to work
F: I think you should come home and take care of your family

F: Why do you always have to leave?
(How do you think that made me feel?)

F: You are the best Tina in the whole wide world! (aaaaaaww)

F: You know what? I love you!

And to my folks, thanks for taking care of me being at home...my mami and pops...what would I do without you? LOVE YOU

So finally I bought some new bball shoes that I might wear...lol. I always make the misstake by buying too "heavy" shoes that I don't like to run in. But these new KOBE Hyperdunk might be a winner. At least I hope so cause I bought them today.
