Where they invented Velcro

Switzerland is cold, ski-ing is tiring, i'm eating ridiculous amounts of food every day and i went to France by accident.... i will edit this post with more detail when there isn't a queue for the computor.
laters, x
UPDATE:
My verdict on Switzerland:
The country is beautiful, the snow was ok and the company was nice :)
The Swiss however are very patriotic and like to keep themselves to themselves or at least that's what came across as i only met one who wasn't on the holiday with us that spoke english back to me and he said in Swiss which was kindly translated to me "This girl hasn't got a clue" teehee
It made me giggle quite a lot at the time.
They do, however, go all the way with fancy dress. I was very impressed at their fancy dress/carnival/outdoor thingy. I saw MnMs, Swine flu, frogs, giant people and more i can't remember but they were my favourite.
Currently around england just viewing some of the sites of my hometown and getting drunk the english way :D
EMPIRE TIME.. best nightclub (in Middlesbrough) on a Saturday.
Right i haven't much to say because i can't be bothered to type because I'm tired and need to watch Skins.
BYE I LOVE YA xxx

England

So I'm back for the day to get ski stuff, order new bank cards, get a new driving license, see my fantastic boyfriend and get fed a sunday dinner on a thursday as well as have Crumpets for breakfast :D ahhhh i did miss yorkshire puddings.
Saying that I don't think Engand is the way to go, there is so much more out there and so many more countries that have a much better system than England.
In England everyone has to be going somewhere, walk quickly and have a plan and know there life story but really that's not a proper path at all.
If we all stopped to just listen to each other, take in some advise, be inspired and act on it the world would be such an amazing place!
Let someone into your bubble!
England is also going down, the money situation, the nanny state of things, health and safety is just beyond ridiculous. ( In Amsterdam in the middle of an open wide street there were trams going to and from every minute with no railings or kirb or anything... they TRUSTED the people of Amsterdam to not be stupid enough to walk in front of a tram, i liked that.)
Also everyone was friendly, if you asked someone for help they were happy to give it and if you were alone they were very happy to talk to you and that kind of niceness rubs off and you end up feeling so much more alive and friendly and relaxed.
So i had my purse nicked, i was being careless, i had it in my coat pocket, it's a city.
I do love England but i don't think i want to stay here, there is just too much going on outside of our island.
Wow my mind is being a bit skatty there is so much buzzing around in it.
Just random fact : i think everyone needs a creative outlet, because language itself, though that can also be a creative outlet is also restrictive to others and once you find the way to speak your soul you can be truly intact with what you want.
There was this man who played the fiddle and it was so amazing, it was as though he was the music, it was so raw and true and you could see he was just in that place of speaking what was truly inside ARGH, i nearly cried hearing it and everyone else in the room was just amazed, I've turned into a minor hippy i think.
Or not.. i just bought Vogue, March Issue, Alexa Chung on the front cover, £4.
So I'm going to go pack my stuff now.
adios! xx
(reminder to self: one blog be a bullet point of quick stories from The Dam)

Nearing the end of Amsterdam :(
I'm afraid i haven't taken many photos because I've been enjoying the moment.
There was only person i met in Amsterdam that was a little bit mean and that was a German on a bike who nearly killed me because i was walking "home" and i looked to check nothing was coming, it was all dark around me, i step out, i get yelled at in German and the guy stops his bike skidding a bit right next to me. So we have a ... debate, i tell him it's 8pm and he has no light on, he says I'm blind. Some Italians hear us and start calling him an idiot and stop to watch. I'm enjoying this argument because I'm right but say goodbye nicely and he trundles off and switches his light on a few meters after.
Ahhhh, I MISS YOU TOO SAM MALONE.
Internet has been hard to find, currently on Graeme's laptop who has kindly let me stay at his with his two other friends, Kris and Jaimie.
The reason i am no longer in hostels is because my purse got stolen and so had no way of getting money... darned pickapockets :)
Dad sent me some money though! Due to me now not having to pay accomadation i have been eating like a Queen, and i havent had to go on the bar crawl either for extra cash!
Note to self: never work on a bar crawl again. It gets very boring, very quickly and the bars we go to are beyond awful :) though it's good to pretend to work if you fancy getting pissed for nothing.
Graeme made everything in his house himself, it's very cool... also he has a load of stuff from the Flying Pig because he does maintenance there so anything the hostel didnt want anymore he would take back, fix and have himself! teehee, his table has no legs!
So! I dearly miss my family and friends but I honestly do not feel like it is time to go home, I almost feel as though i don't want to face the reality of home and want to remain in this little travelling bubble where you meet new people everyday, the routine is that there is no routine because something always happens every day.
Graeme lets me sit on the back of his moped ^^ that's fun, he's probably the closest friend i have in Amsterdam. Unfortunately though we did spend a whole day just watching movies, eating awful food, drinking some rose (cba finding the fancy e) and talking. As we decided to call it a night and went to collapse in our beds Jaimie comes in from his night shift, turns the TV on, opens up a can of beer etc and well... i ended up wasting a day and night just staing at movies.
The Secretary was very good! The Incredibles is always an easy good film, monsters v aliens, cloudy with a chance of meatballs and now my brain has died.
And their cat looks at me funny.
Today i am to make myself a sausage butty with fried egg! Though we have run out of ketchup so i need to go get some before i delve into cooking. Today i am also going to go to the bar crawl and say goodbye to all my fellow employees :) such a mix bag of people:
Clara is the most beautiful french girl I've ever seen, Steve is American but i really good hearted one, Dan is Canadian he also offered his couch to me but it was further out of town and if i lived there id have to invest in a bike :\, James is from Manchester and good laugh, Ola is Polish, Seb is Romanian aaand Baz is the boss.
Oh and I'll go for a walk because i don't know this part of town that well yet.
The Flying Pig Uptown is definitly the best hostel going in Amsterdam, highly highly reccomend there, very relaxed atmosphere, efficient but easy going and yep.
Anywho, be back for a day then I'm stealing Martina and going to Switzerland.
