Tristate Tournament & just this weekend
This weekend was really nice. I was at my parents with roflandtroll but a big part of the time we were at the Tristate Tournament in Maastricht.
Tristate is an event organised by 500milesofawesome, dutchandbelgianhpa and hpagermany. First we did a scavenger hunt, which was really fun. Got to see quite a bit of Maastricht, which is really pretty mostly, and learned some history too :). Then we had lectures by WarChild and SOS Kinderdorpen, the charities where the money raised by the event is going (about 1000 euros was probably raised, haven't heard the exact number yet, was sponsors but the venue also donated some money from the drinks (and iirc 55% of the money is going to SOS Kinderdorpen and 45% to WarChild, based on what happened during the scavenger hunt)).
Then there was dinner, some free time, and then ball :). It was all really nice, good to see some people again who i already knew, and to see some new people (and from different countries, which is fun). The ball was really nice, first there was live music by Quickspell and Margot Vandersmissen, which was awesome. Also first time I was actually at a place where they played wrock/nerdy music live ^_^. Then there was some 'nomal' and some nerdy/wrock music, and lotsa dancing, and it was just lotsa fun :).
I even got a Quickspell button :).
Leaving kinda sucked, we had to leave just when grouppictures were being taken, so we stayed a tiny bit longer and then i had to change out of my dress really quickly, and then kinda stress and tiredness.
So then we slept til almost 1pm.. but that was really nice/needed, and slow waking up together is nice :). My mom had baked really nice broodjes (rolls/buns/thingies?) which are just waaay too nommable :). Then travelling, and some time drinking Starbucks, which was also just really lovely :). Then more travels, actually doing some stuff, some reading, some listening to music, and then hooome. Getting home to a clean room is really nice. And then eating and now writing this :p. Oh and Friday we watched SHIELD and ah, things! (and Fitz really needs speech therapy for his aphasia!)
This weekend was just really nice, though also waaay too short. I still need to do some homework, and hapefully have enough time to watch Doctor Who.. so I'm off to draw some syntax trees or try to anyways help trees are hard. Hope you all had a lovely weekend too :).
