Happy Birthday to me...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME.. HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOO MEEE...
this is how I woke up today. The day that I turned 20. No teenager anymore. Lovely, one year left and I'm old enough to decide everything for myself! Got some message on the telephone for my birthday, even of a guy who lives in brussels but he has a child in the netherlands,, whatever.
At 4.30am I woke up, because of the jetlag, but I really wanted to get some more sleep. so at 6.30 I felt in sleep again for about 3 hours. Exactly 2 minutes before my alarm went off I woke up. Took a shower, packed my stuff and all this kind of stuff and went to the reception to check out. Will miss this hotel, it's really nice! Put my luggage in the luggage room and went to the city try to get some breakfast.
When I arrived at the Grote Markt I didn't see my parents.. I gave them a call and asked where they were. Well they had to park the car and will come as soon as possible. so I sit somewhere at the street waiting. And waiting.. waiting.. waiting. They still did not arrive.
Then.. I heard some TUUT TUUUT TOEET and someone jumped on my, I really did not recognize. I saw my parents with a strange head and balloons. But that was not everything!!
I saw it was Devika who jumped on me, and I was like UHHH?? I Saw Jos, Keiko and Wally walking behind my parents with the same head and balloons.
We went inside a cafe to get something t odrink and eat some cake. Well that was really too much for me so we asked for a doggybag. They sing a song for me. Another Tb member came to enjoy us.. Chris (chock). After this cafe it was time to see something of the city. First we saw 'menneke pis' This time he was wearing some clothes. We just saw some other sightseeings but I was a bit too tired to see really something.
Later on we came at an old station and we went inside. Nice to see. Then a men start playing piano.. so Keiko asked him to play Happy Birthday for me.. he did! And guess what, it was his birthday as well! Then we walked to the female version fo manneke pis: Jeanneke Pis.
And the end of the day Chris had to leave and we searched for a nice restaurant. I walked over there with a button with: I'm 20. And a partyhead so he asked me if it was my birthday. My mom got a action and i had to leave, so they decided if they will takesomething or not. Well the food was good, but to much for me.
Not really expected there were discolamps and music and I was looking, omg is that for me? And yes, everyone looked at me. The big suprise, the pie with firework. So lovely!
It was just great!! We had to hurry back to the hotel because Keiko and Wally had to catch the train. In den bosch we said goodbye to everyone. Well I didn't feel well because I ate way too much for me.. so it went all wrong at the end. But no worry, in the evening I still went clubbing with a very good friend.
At 6.30 am the next morning I went to bed. It was a great day, and I really awnt to thanks everyone again! I will never forget my 20th birthday!!
THANKS!!
