So I drove back from Hamburg yesterday and I noticed something about driving in general. Obviously, anyone who knows me, knows I love to go fast for as long as possible. My car is limited, however 160 km/h is something I can do in general. (Before my car rattles and will die)

I was thinking about driving fast in Germany, as there has been debate about this subject going on. German rules allow drivers to go as fast as possible (no speed limits) on the highway in designated areas.
When I make my way from Germany to Holland going back to university, my way is 70% no limit in Germany (Netherlands has limits). I was watching people drive yesterday and have come to the conclusion that if you DON’T go fast (say, above 150) you are driving much more dangerously. Why?

Because the average speed of cars on the highway (I am referring to the Audis, Mercedes, BMW etc.) is already like 170 and you are passing trucks in the left lane, its horribly dangerous if you go slow. All you do is make all cars coming up faster have to break and you endanger yourself by weaving in and out of trucks to avoid the fast cars.

My car is limited to 160 km/h unless I wanted to end up broken down, however even that is too slow for the highway. Yes ofcourse, I’m a speed junkie and I love going faster and faster, but still.

Oh, that and most people can’t drive anyway. I hate to say it, but especially women. It’s so easy to point out the women on the highway, they drive slow, sometimes drive so horribly dangerous that it makes me want to hide and they are scared. Granted, not all are like that, some drive so fast and don’t know how to control their car that they gladly run you off the road.

I use my lights to move people out of the way, I honk, however I don’t drive recklessly like some women (and men of course) I’ve seen on the highway. Men are bad too, but I’ve noticed that in general the people driving the fast cars have the most control over them, funny.

Anyway, that is all, I needed to vent. Tomorrow I will pick apart the Netherlands and how NO ONE IN THIS FUCKING COUNTRY CAN DRIVE! Seriously, they drive like they won their liscence in the lottery.

It snowed yesterday, huzzah! We got like 5 cm of snow here in the morning and mid-day, which was awesome for me. I couldn’t get to university on time due to the snow, so instead i played by myself outside. Surprisingly fun, even though no one was here, haha. It was all gone by late afternoon though, due to rain taking it’s place, but the couple hours I had were nice.

Carnival is coming up, which I am 100% excited about. My best friend Caro from Germany, who now studies in Shanghai, is coming to the Netherlands to visit me here. She has 1 month of holiday right now, so we thought his would be the best time than ever for her to come and lend me some company. She will be staying with me from next Friday to Tuesday, when we go to Hamburg Germany together to have a couple days at home.
My parents (lucky bastards) are in California right now, however their weather is worse than ours (rain rain rain). This however means, that I have the house to myself in Hamburg, which will be fun. It’s always something different to be home alone in your old house, rather than at college.

Carnival is three days of party here, for those who don’t know it, and a lot of binge drinking. We will be going to clubs at 12 in the afternoon and staying there all day, that basically constitutes it. Oh, and we get to dress up! I’ve been thinking of my costume all week, though I’ve come up with little ideas. So far I have one costume, I’m just going to wear his military uniform one day and consider myself dressed up, haha. Otherwise I am having problems thinking of something to wear, so my friend Caro and I decided we may just go as germans, which should be easy enough!

Love you guys!
