Storm clouds were gathering as I was loading groceries into the car. It’s been very rainy and stormy all day, with thunder and lightening all afternoon. Needless to say, it’s also pretty chilly with the rain. Sigh.

Rain clouds coming in as I walked home from work today. The weather here is unchanged, by the way. Still around 14 degrees, cold, grey, and rainy. Sometimes it feels like Ireland has no seasons. :(

This is what my study currently looks like -this is where I’ll be watching the World Cup Final tonight. My football jersey, which I’ll be wearing, of course, is on the couch. Most decorations are thanks to my mom, love you! I’ll probably feel pretty damn homesick, as I always do with no other Dutch people around to celebrate with, but with an orange room, I still have a bit of home. :)

Another cold, grey, and rainy day. Sigh. We are all wearing sweaters and have the central heating on!

It’s days like these that make you want to shoot yourself. Cold, grey, rainy, maximum of 14 degrees. Ugh. So I try and find some beauty where I can. And love my new iphone’s camera.
