That's all I need to pass my courses, and that's sort of what I shot for while studying for the three mid-terms I had this week. This has definitely been the least stressful mid-term week ever, and damn it feels good.
In other news, my 10-day trip included visits to Maastricht (4 days with a day in Brussels, Belgium), Bolsward (2 days), and Barcelona (4 days). The former two are in opposite corners of the Netherlands.
Overall, a great trip. I stayed with Ahamad (friend from Queen's) in Maastricht, met my two Norwegian friends and made one more (Norwegian friend, that is!), saw my Aunt and her family, my cousin's cute baby, an Iraqi-Dutch guy at a bar, who was wrongly imprisoned four times and now has psychological problems, and finally met Tristan in Barcelona where we met all sorts of of people, including a guy that happened to work with one of my good friends who was interning at Microsoft.
More interesting coincidences: the guy that owns the hostel and his cousin were Lebanese, and Roland, a friend on exchange in Budapest happened to be in Barcelona at the same hostel we were at.
