No job, nothing productive to do, no cell phone, can't speak Dutch, living out of four suitcases while everything else I own is being shipped, and it's pouring outside.

Freaking out just a little.

Amsterdam is awesome and like everyone speaks English anyway. I couldn't find a job there either so I went home, but good luck!

It's totally cool man, everything will be okay. It might be intense for the first little bit but after a while the effects will start to wear off and you'll be fine. Just take deep breaths.

I'm already in love with Amsterdam just by reading about it!!! I'm spending 5 days there only. I'm reading about the language and I wish I had the time just to learn a litte bit!

So wait... why exactly aren't you getting stoned? I'm genuinely confused.

i don't get high.

and i don't believe that prostitution should be legalized.

and i don't buy much of any of this hippie mentality.

and i do believe that citizens should have the right to bear arms.

where else would i have moved to?

I miss Peter Pan peanut butter, crest toothpaste, shops that stay open past dark, my car, HBO, and nyquil.

Keep thinking like that and you'll be leaving before you know it.

For serious though, I don't want to be anywhere else in the world. Synch is wonderful, the house is beautiful, everything is a new adventure for me. I always knew it would take some time to adjust though and it hasn't been long enough.
