This week, I gave the cookies to my canteengirl. I bought this cookies in Brussel. When I was at the cookiesshop Annie sneaked in my ears: "buy this for your canteengirl! She defintely will like it." Without considering what Annie had mentioned, since the word canteengirl just came to my ear, I bought the cookies. After I paid the cookies and when I walked out the shop, I realised that these cookies were like gold!!! Why? Well, I paid 8Euro for 4 pieces of cookies! Then, I wondered if my canteengirl will like it, since she does not like sweet stuff and chocolade.

Well, done is done. There was no way back. The only hope was that she would like it. When I came back to Holland, I realised that I need to meet canteengirl asap, since the cookies could not wait for too long. So, I decided to catch up with her after Annie left.

This week and the coming week, my canteengirl had a very busy schedule. So, it was though to meet her. But since my working-hours at Shell are very flexible, I went early to work. Since then I can also leave earlier. So, I gave her the cookies at her office. I could see in her face expression that she wanted to say many things. But she was in a big rush. I said, go go go. :)

After she left and when I took the metro, May started sending me SMS. The way back to my place is just the second stop. The metro took 2 mins to reach my metrostop. But this 2 mins look like 15 min. Hahaha...

Anyway, looking back at the reality, there are many thing I have to face to. First, I receive a letter of the Dutch government. They said I own them money. It is a huge one: more than 40 000 euro. To be quite honest, I did not expect that much.

I was very surprised that until now, I still do not shock by this debt. Somewhere inside me said everything will be fine. I will make more money and I will let the Dutch government own my money. Don't ask me where this spirit come from. Since I also don't have the answer.

The second thing was that I would not work for the jewelry company again, since they were not satisfied with me. It was a kind of relieve, since in the past few months, they put me in a very difficult position. Their demand exceed the top of the sky, while they do not pay me a penny extra. The other side of this meaning is that my commercial photography might be go to an end. But I believe that this is a good news. Leaving this company will make me a stronger and better photographer, since I can work on the pictures I like. I do not need to scout for at least 50 models for them to pick. To arrange this and that for them. So I say goodbye to the old bad things and welcome to the new good ones. :)
