My daughter turned 18 this Saturday (June 1st). 18 years ago I was in a hospital in Schiedam, Holland, giving birth to Kaina. How I came to give birth in Holland is a long story. This week the CKM Bootcamp was in the desert of Israel, so I didn’t hear much of Raul. But on …
A week full of mixed emotions. On Tuesday my daughter had her last exam. A day I was waiting for; for a long time. As a single mom, I had no partner to help me with the school things of my daughter. However, I cannot deny that my parents helped me a lot. But I …
Finally, this one took some time to write. Maybe there was not so much to write about. And the week after a lot of things happened that kept me busy. This week I met with professor Severing, my local guide. He took a look at the draft of my proposal and we met to talk …
This week there were no remarkable events. Well OK, I did Tae Bo for the first time. I liked it. My daughter started her final exams in High School. I spoke with professor Severing, who is the local professor guiding us locally. He is missing a table in my proposal. So we made an appointment …

If I could use a simple sentence or something to characterize my week, it would be “No Concentration!”. I had time for some things this week but I was distracted every time I tried to do something meaningful. For respect to my aunt and my mom, I decided not to play the tournament this week. …
Last week the medical doctor talked a lot about how I think I was going to continue with my life because my body was protesting. A conversation I had with a pastor was about the same thing. Only she had a feeling that a lot of things happened in my life but I didn’t mourn …
Sometimes things happen just to remember you that you can help someone to think different. We are done with the Performance assessments of the 4th year students. This week we started with visits to the 3rd year students; hopefully, they will be better prepared for the assessment in year 4. On Tuesday I went to …
Finishing last week with the Math Quiz, I was very tired. I fell asleep very fast, but at 1:20 am I woke up and couldn’t sleep anymore. In my head were all the things that went wrong during the Quiz. Here in Curacao a lot of people have the tendency to tell you that you …
Taking/making decisions when other people are involved has been a challenge for me for a long time. Like this week. I had planned to leave the office at 6 in the evening and then go to my Body Stress Release therapy (with Clemens Evertsen) because I had a lot of back pain. 5 minutes to …
