    Did Joost actually update? With a post on his life? Really?
    So I'm going to move to Turkey next month, to Istanbul. As most of you know I've been training to be a commercial pilot these past 3 years. I graduated flight school in September of last year and I've been looking for a job ever since. I found one, more or less. I'm actually going to learn how to fly an airliner, a Boeing 737, in Turkey for Pegasus Airlines. If all goes well I should be done with that in 4 months and chances are (quite good) that they will offer me a contract if I finish training and perform as I should.

    The biggest problem at the moment is the bank loan as I pay for the training and my living expenses myself. My bank guy said it shouldn't be a problem provided I can show the bank I have a contract with them, which I don't. So I need to arrange one and working with a Turkish Company is... well... difficult. I know one word of Turkish and they know about 5 in English. The people I will work with during training will probably speak English better, but the girl I get on the phone doesn't speak a word. Also I will need to find a place to live. I'm thinking about living in a hotel for a few weeks and look from there, but that will be an expensive stay.

    We'll see how this ends.

    These Happy Days...

    Ready to race to you.
    It's getting harder and harder to come up with something. So I'll say that Coca Cola makes me happy. Especially from a can.

    My cycle hums, (what the hell kind of line is this, anyway?)
    Today I'm happy that I woke up at noon. That is all.

    The weekend comes,
    I guess what made me happy was being able to help my friends out today. Jan-Willem, a guy I've known since I was 8, and his wife moved today and needed my help. So I helped them, well me and 7 other people but still.

    So far that's all I did today.

    Thursday, Friday, Happy Days.
    Endorphins! There's nothing like working out, taking a shower, eating something and then sitting on the couch grinning like an idiot. I guess it's an artificial happiness but still it made me happy today.

    Tuesday, Wednesday, Happy Days.
    I bought steak that I'm going to cook tonight with some whiskey. I'm not sure why that makes me happy but it does.

    Sunday, Monday, Happy days.
    The rules are that for 8 days you have to post something that made you happy that day.
    Tag 8 people to do the same.

    I'm not going to tag anyone, sorry. But I've been tagged by [info]magika86


    What made me happy today was waking up by a text message from this girl I really like. Actually I got two text messages from two girls I like, [info]anglophilic was one of them. I also like that I can get up whenever I want these days. Sure I would like a job as soon as possible but having a lot of free time is quite nice.

    I fell for it
    1. Leave me a comment asking me to interview you.
    2. I will respond by asking you five questions.
    3. You will update your lj with the answers to the questions.


    1. What non sexual trait do you like in women?
    Confidence, I'd rather have a cocky girlfriend that someone who's insecure.

    2. You are stationed in Germany as a pilot. What language would you speak most often?
    Dutch at home, German in public and English at work.

    3. Hilary Clinton gets elected, is that a sign of the apocalypse?
    That depends on what her number is. I don't like her much though.

    4. Name three comics you like.
    Fokke & Sukke, A Softer World and Lucky Luke

    5. Do you belong to any political, environmental, social groups?
    Not anymore, I used to be a member of the VVD which is a liberal(or libertarian) Dutch political party.
