Daens and the sledding

Ok, I changed my resolution. Let's write on an average of every two days. That still makes 182 entries a year. They can be as short as today.

A weekend of not-studying and quality-time in the snow (as long as it lasts). It felt nostalgic, sliding down the Mariaberg in Zutendaal surrounded by happy kids and their moms, dads, grandparents. We felt like little children again. It can be so relieving, just some moments without doubts. Just a sledge to take control of. We landed in the bushes anyway, covered in snow.

Yesterday Pieter and I got a free ticket to Daens, the musical. Breath-taking and goose-bumping. I can still sing all the songs in my head. Even though I know the story since I was a child and even based my first book on it, it still takes me away to the Flanders of 1888, the revolt of Socialism, the fight against child labour and injustice.

I really want to enter the NOHA-programme... Action's needed!
