Argggggggggggg

[Yoni]

You know I like fun and I like to bounce (dance) with the best of them, however my lovely peaceful little apartment in the middle of a beautiful Dutch city has become hell on earth....

If it were the weekend it would be ok as I would not have to work tomorrow but this is making me feel violent in ways I have never wanted to be violent before...I can't think, I cant sleep and to top it off the fucking supermarket closed at 6pm due to the Carnival

I know I shouldn't whine but I got in after a very quiet weekend last night at 8pm to get ready for work and as I walked up from the station I could hear the ooommmpaaa paaa from the far side of the park.. I think my house is like 1km away from the station.. as I got closer the noise was abhorrent.

I found myself at 12.30am this morning with my hands over my ears praying to anyone that would listen that it would go away.... I ended up making a den in the corridor between rooms to dampen some of the noise.. sadly this didn't get rid of the vibrations...

I have just got in this evening after leaving early as I need to get food to find the supermarket shut and my apartment vibrating far worse than last night.... it finishes tomorrow night so I have yet another night to get through... *sobs*

Don't get me wrong I actually feel bad for being angry as people are out having fun so those who want to call me a kill joy etc etc etc please don't I am aware of this fact oh and come here next year, dont worry Ill wake you at 5.30 each morning during the festivities to emulate my situation...... I Just needed to vent, oh and to sleep

You have a vibrating apartment? Most women would be jealous

 

[TdC]

fucking lol Yoni that's awful! o0

 

[mr.Blacky]

ohhhhh proper Carnaval

Er staat een paard in de gang
ja ja een paard in de gang

oh and lots of

I am kinda surprised you are working Yoni

 

[Yoni]

Next year I am leaving the country..... just want it to stop now ... I rang my dad for sympathy and he gave me some but laughed

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

I can't hear a thing from here.

<shuffles feet>

I'll go away now.

 

[phazey]

I can sympathize with you totally. During such wonderful Thai festivals as Songkran and Loy Kratong, the village idiot rigs up a sound system to the loudhailer speakers dotted around the lake (these are normally for broadcasting the national anthem twice a day) and blats out that god awful thai screechy Thai music from sun up until way past sun down.

Insert a mental image of Private Pyle from FMJ cleaning his gun at this point.........

 

[Yoni]

I am on day three of no sleep... and they are relentless... tomorrow is Herring day where they swallow whole ones with pickles... I hope they fucking choke.. (harsh I know but I am suffering from sleep deprivation so excuse me for one more day)

 

[Ch3tan]

Heh Yonisan! I'm also on day three of no sleep. A combination of alcohol, redbull, and shit on my mind have stopped me sleeping at all for the past 3 days.

 

[old.Tohtori]

this is making me feel violent in ways I have never wanted to be violent before..

And here i was thinking that i hope this girls got a special someone for angry sex.

No wait...that's not it...

Umm...

Comfort! Yes, comfort is the word i'm lookig for.

Stay strong, it'll pass and you'll be stronger for it...or...some...other platitudes like that.

The "chorus" of that song sounds like the chrous of Eminem's Without Me sung by an old man that's had a really bad stroke.

 

[Yoni]

On my way home from work at the station

What it was like walking to my house

My front yard when trying to sleep

A few insights into the wonders of carnival stolen from you tube. Happily TdC I did not hear the link you put up once although there is a choon they played repeatedly where somone sings and then everyone joins in for a line so on and so forth which is ingrained in to my head, a bit like the whistling thing from Kill Bill.. I just want to make it stop..

Although in happier news as I walked home today my home was restored to back the peaceful beautiful place that it is for 350 days of the year (carnival / queens / new year (although i loved that).

 

[TdC]

lols I'd thought you'd be blissfully asleep by now

 

[mr.Blacky]

tbh Yoni it is your own fault for living in a street with a damn freaky clown statue

 

[Yoni]

Sadly when I viewed the house I didnt notice said statue

 

[Uara]

Jesus, thats some craziness going out there! I think I would have gone completely mad if I'd been sleep deprived for how long you had been!
