August - football wife

So as most people know, I was in Australia for most of July and the start of August. I had such a great time seeing everyone, getting out and about, dipping my toes once again into great Aussie music and loading up with vegemite; eucalyptus oil and camping gear. What I found interesting was to have people tell me that they follow what Martijn and I have been up to on the blog... I had no idea. Some even told me that sometimes they go to write back or leave a note, but cant think of anything to write. Come on! It was a weird experience having people tell me about the things I have been up to in the last 12 months. However, I guess that is what happens when you put your stuff/life out there.

August was a month of...:

• seeing if our new tent could cope with days of rain in Belgium
  
• it not being summer anymore
  
• preparing for uni in September
• re-arranging our room to try and find more space
• the alternative Dutch spelling guide book being released with much hoo-ha
• being "soccer/football-wife" for the first game of the new season
  
• knitting during the half time break of the soccer match (Martijn didn't want to know me)
• language confusion when I got back to NL

I'm hoping next month....:

• I won't cry AT uni during my first week because I am so overwhelmed by having do follow classes in Dutch
• to easily choose between continuing hockey or badminton
• to finally get around to fixing my flat bike tyre - its only been flat since June
• to begin production of knitted stubby holders in Martijn's soccer club colours, which are only to be knitted during games in the wives/girlfriends knitting group that I will start
• to get through my first month at uni!
  

For people who want to leave a comment but don't know what to write, I leave you this question which you may like to help me with

If I feel like I am about to cry during one of the lecture, what should I do?
