Communication, seeing people, new friends, going out, have fun, etc, etc.

Communication, seeing people, new friends, going out, have fun, etc, etc. 

That's my homework for the weekend and this comming week, trying to find something where I can meet people, or just to have something to do, socialize, see other people, perhaps making  new friends, etc, etc. I'm ready for it, it was one of my ideas aswell. I changed, in a good way, I want to be with people, I like being with people. It's not that it's a must that I HAVE to do this, no! I want this cause I just want this for myself, I look forward to be among people again, and look forward to search for anything that can bring me among people. I'm thinking of a curcus, volunteers work, voluntary association, perhaps a sport, I think Google will help me out with a start. That will be my next goal this comming month, communication, seeing people, new friends, going out, have fun, etc, etc. Enjoy myself!

I discussed this with my counselor (Sahayo) this morning aswell, together we made a list with with things or places where I have to search. Another thing Sahayo made was a sociagram, (woot?) a sociagram is a kind of a drawning where you have to draw a cirkel, and in that cirkel you draw yourself. Around yourself you draw the people who stands close to you, but those people have to be on a certain distance from you. For example, my Dad stands close to me so I have to draw him close to me, for example my Aunt, stands a bit further away then my Dad, so she will be drawn a bit further then my Dad. It was quit hard to draw such a sociagram but it went okay, I have to make another one this week.

So the weatherforecast here keeps giving warnnings about that were getting a horror winter, they talked about snow in November. Yeah I take the weatherforecast serious but what can we do? Do we have to take precautions?  And if we do, what do we need to do then? Buy more blankets or buy electric heaters? We Dutch people are quit laid back with such things, "There just talks," we say then. But when the horror winter breaks out, the panic breaks loose and we start to complain, for example, "Hey why didn't you warn us!" We will be standing in lines at the last minute to buy electric heaters and extra blankets, and will complain when they will all be dold out. No, serious, I will just see what happens this winter. I have my thick clothing, my warm blankets, and good heaters.

I should be concerned about my electric and gas bill, lol. With a horror winter the heaters will blow 24 hours a day I guess. Another thing with this comming winter is that I will be searching for something to do this comming Christmas, I already started. I mentioned this before in a earlier post, this aswell is not really a must, it's not a thing that I must do otherwise I will go crazy if I can't find a thing to do this Christmas. It would be nice to find something to do, but I guess I will be okay aswell if I don't find something to do.Then again, I'm pretty sure that I will find something though, a trip with a bunch of single people would be nice, a organized single trip to Belgium or France, or maybe even London. That would be nice!

Another tremendous day has ended, the weather was again awesome. Blue sky and fully sunshine, a horror winter? It just seems unbelievable, but this is Holland, you never know it here. I took a long nap again, I slept for an hour and felt almost unconscious afterwards, lol. I slept to tight I guess. Before my nap I did most of my groceries and did the first load of laundry, that's done. This comming weekend will be all about taking it easy, and spend not much money. I don't want to make it a habbit to spend money every weekend. I will be enjoyning inside my house, perhaps a nice walk or a nice bike ride. I realize I'm doing well when it comes to socializing, and aswell with going out. So now and then a day staying inside and be on myself having a 'me' time isn't a crime.
