Turn back the hands of time

Hi guys,

I'm sure all of you remember R Kelly's cheesy song...Well, on Saturday night we were actually able to turn back time (R Kelly, I hope you took the opportunity and went after your darling :P). Two of my friends really knew how to work this change into their advantage and got married on Saturday. Imagine the surprise of some of the wedding guests who seemed to have forgotten that clocks would be turned back at 4 am. They partied hard all night long, and when the time came to finally go home and rest their legs, they checked their watch and saw it was only 3 am...Major deja-vu, but they blamed it on the booze. Funny stuff! Jokes aside, I am beyond happy with this change, as I was getting so tired of those dark mornings...But now I'm facing a different challenge: What will I do with an entire extra hour of my life?!? :)).

Hugs,

Manic Monday

Hi guys,

Hope you guys had a decent Monday :)).

I woke up today with this positive feeling and this urge to get to work ...Yeah, right! My urge was so big that I actually turned my alarm off, and woke up half an hour later. Puffy face: checked! Clothes that I'd randomly pull out of the closet : checked! It seemed like the recipe for a perfect day...

I finally got to the tram station. The first tram reached the bus stop. Although it was extremely crowded, I tried to get on. Couldn't! I thought to myself: "If at first you don't succeed...". So I tried again with the second tram...Failure! There were so many people inside one tiny tram, that I seriously felt like taking a photo and send it to those Guinness World Records dudes...

But, since good things come to those who wait, I finally got on the third tram. Now I was officially going to be late for work...Bummer!

By now, you might think this is a sad story, but it actually isn't. I got to work, all upset and frustrated over my public transportation adventure and guess what brightened my day?!? A text message from my 2 co-workers, who enjoy the comfort of their personal car while coming to work every day, saying they were going to be late as they were caught in this crazy traffic jam...Mu ha ha ha! I gently laid back in my chair, put my feet on the desk, relaxed, smelled the fresh coffee in my cup and whispered..."It was all worth it, after all!"

In case you didn't notice, this post was meant to be an ode to public transport. I am grateful it brought me to work a lot earlier than my co-workers. And I am also forever grateful to the packed trams, as there is no space for ticket inspectors to get on. Double win!

I wish you all a perfect week!

Hugs,
