ROTTERDAM<\/b>
we took a studio field trip out to rotterdam (x) weeks ago to go see the le corbusier exhibit at the netherlands architecture institution. it was brief, but interesting. we then took a bike tour all around the city with our tour guide\u2026whatsherface. yea, i didnt catch her name. super. i honestly cant remember the names of the places she took us to either, since they were either 20 letters long, or i just didnt pay attention well enough, considering i was too busy taking pictures of anything and everything. it was fun tho. we got back from rotterdam and i headed out to meet lysha for some late night partying. we drank and clubbed til i think 4am. memorys a bit foggy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

other highlights of amsterdam\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
i ran smack into the gay pride celebrations the one weekend i decided that i wanted to go out to shop and take pictures. the streets were jam-packed with parties, and the main gay parade sailed down the prinsengracht. craziness. i did however get to swing by droog design<\/a> where i picked up a little gift for alice. so yea\u2026alice if youre reading this, i gotcha something. now i just have to mail the bugger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n i also got to finally meet up with marisas other friend haiko the last week before i left. we met up for some comida de mexicana. drank, chatted, then relaxed with wine and beer at het molenpad<\/i> on the prinsengracht (incidentally my favorite amsterdam bar). no hard partying because it was tuesday. and i met up with lysha one last time the following thursday for dinner at odeon<\/i>. we just ate and hung out til i dont know when\u2026then strolled along the canals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n im pretty sure ill go back to amsterdam soon enough\u2026in a proper vacation-al manner (tho i didnt really mind at all the work\/play aspect during my stay). personally, i think amsterdam suits me much better than a city like new york. i <3 mellow. the only things that kinda bothered me about amsterdam were 1. shops close waaaay too early. bastards. and 2. mosquitos along the canals. motherfuckers! anyhoo\u2026sad face. bai bai amsterdam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"ams](\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/1197\/674232413_bd8504c122_z.jpg\")
