PAUL: Have any plans? What is it you want to do now? Not in general, but like small specific shit you've been missing

HANA: did my nails

HANA: baked, but not well, but that's ok

HANA: want to get back to my zombie fanfic

HANA: play some video games

PAUL: Nice

PAUL: I've read the first four chapters. It's fun, but I suspect there will be buttfucking in the future.

HANA: oh fun trivia

HANA: there is......

HANA: ....NO SEX in the story

HANA: at all

HANA: just INTENSE FRIENDSHIP

PAUL: No sex??? But the meaningful glances and the banter must lead up to tearyeyed buttfucking

HANA: i know

HANA: it's incredible

HANA: fanfic??? without buttfucks?????

PAUL: That is unique

PAUL: You have written nonsecfanfic

HANA: i like to be subversive

PAUL: That's a genre in and of itself. You could be a writer for the original show. No sex hahahaha

PAUL: Weirdo

HANA: yeah man, my readers end up developing confusion boners

“I am apparently going to London with my parents and hubby to see...”

Nice! London is pretty great. I've only been there once, even though it's just across the Channel. I can recommend the National History Museum. It might be one of the best things I ever did, but that could be because i like nature museums.

Ohh, thanks!  I’ve been to London once, but I was much younger.  I don’t think I visited the National History Museum, so that’s a good one to go to, I love nature museums too :-D.

DAMN MOTHERFUCKER!! THAT LOOKS DELICIOUS!!!! I have never made it myself because we can buy it year round. But Daaaaayum, those look good.

WAIT TIL I PERFECT THE RECIPE MOTHERFUCKER SO IT LOOKS NICE AND EVEN, I CAN'T BUY THE DAMNED BISCUITS BECAUSE I'M NOT IN THE NETHERLANDS YOU ASSHOLES

Actually, I really want to make spekulaas frosting! But to do that, I need speculous cookie butter. But that's expensive. So I have to make it. But to make it I have to have spekulaas. Rinse, repeat.

But spekulaas is so damned perfect, my mum took a bite, her eyes bulged, and then she finished the entire plate I'd passed to her for her and my dad to share. Then she took pictures and demanded the recipe. 

Even so I had to switch out a few things: Didn't have allspice but I had mixed spice which contained allspice. Also, my butter was salted, so I didn't add salt to the dry ingredients. Also no ground cloves so I had to grind my own :U BUT it was a pretty decent approximation of the spekulaas I had in Utrecht! I think if I make the biscuit exactly according to the recipe (esp re the allspice) maybe it will perfectly match.

ALSO PROTIP: THE BATTER IS VERY VERY SOFT AND FRAGILE. I WAS FREAKING OUT. But it turned out fine. so wonderfully crispy once completely cooled

i smell of biscuits, you should be jealous

draadnagel replied to your post “also always amused when my indo relatives are like “oh iya, bahasa di...”

I got 1 word from that sentence. As I'm typing this I might as well continue typing. How are you doing? I'm starting my master in a week and just applied for a new job which I'll most definitely be denied for.

I'm guessing that word is "bahasa" :P

My sitch:

TBF, I could be better. Home has been somewhat bad for me. I ended up bursting into tears and having it out with my mother the day after I arrived, mostly because she forced me to attend an event that I had no willpower to, and I told her rather viciously that I'd be leaving the first chance I get once my bond is up. It was pretty bad. My dad called me worthless on day 3! I locked myself in my room for a few days until a friend took me away for a night.

It's just been a spiral of hopelessness for me here, I don't even feel moved to fill in any of the job apps I want abroad because I've had calls locally, thanks to my scholarship. I was excited to apply for a job in Munich but I don't know if I want to now. The scholarship is a nation-building one, so I may as well do what they ask and stay for two years. The only problem I foresee is that... as much as I'm looking forward to saving money, being at home actually means I spend a lot of money. My mum's just told me she's going to get a new dress tailored for me so we can attend a relative's wedding in Indonesia. Because I have no money or income, she'll pay for my airfare this time. And my cousins are, how shall I put it, VERY FERTILE. It's just not good manners not to go to a wedding here. It's a bit frustrating. I wish everyone would stop being at a marriageable age.

Anyway, what I really hope is to get a job with a bank here because it means better pay, which hopefully means more savings sooner (even if it means having to listen to my "dad's advice"). I'm lucky my brother's a pilot, so I can get his help with a ticket abroad. I still have some money in my bank in the UK which I am going to endeavour not to touch if I can, so we'll see how it goes.

THIS WAS A POST. Where will you be doing your Masters??? Utrecht? Also hahahhaa should I ask about the job or are you as demoralised as I am

draadnagel replied to your post:tonight is miserable it’s eid my classmates...

That sucks. Try watching some fun shit that you haven’t found the time for lately and eat disgusting amounts of chocolade. It won’t make up for Eid, but it will make your night pass that much smoother. Hope it turns out be an okay night.

Thanks friend. Talked to some people on twitter, had a good cry, was told cwena and her mum would come and see me some time next week, I feel a lot better already. Also ordered a huge amount of junk food. I think it's just that I'm isolated in Cambridge right now, especially during a time like Eid. I JUST WANT MY FRIENDS.
