I should say that I live in Rotterdam and did Not follow any courses to get helps from my teacher.So I will really appreciate any further tips.Best,PashaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08841903950614899477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3459710321398700680.post-86356477914175565662013-01-03T23:12:37.188+01:002013-01-03T23:12:37.188+01:00I am Dutch and vegetarian.

I had a question regarding the same. I guess I need to collect 8 bewijzen corresponding to "Werk Hebben". Now, I spoke to my colleagues at work and my boss and collected few Bewijzen. Now, my question is whether is it ok to just get those forms filled and signed by my colleages or do I also need some official stamp of the Company to authenticate those forms ? I am speaking about the "Bewijsformulier Gesprekken". <br /><br />I ask this because my Company being a private one does not seem to have a seal or a stamp! Let me know on this. Thanks a lot!<br /><br />Regarrds,<br />Aneeshaneesh venkatramanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02852915878152646127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3459710321398700680.post-30174003787853629762011-07-23T01:20:07.868+02:002011-07-23T01:20:07.868+02:00ehmmm.hi.I just started to read your blog.I am mar...ehmmm.hi.I just started to read your blog.I am married to a sweet dutch girl and moving to nl in september.I want to ask whether u have to pay back the fee of the course back to the state?alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11019763190288914678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3459710321398700680.post-3068712894539000262011-05-31T14:34:11.753+02:002011-05-31T14:34:11.753+02:00Ingest more water, take care!Ingest more water, take care!generic paracetamolhttp://www.genericlook.com/drugs/Paracetamol/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3459710321398700680.post-50005302133449564862011-05-31T12:51:47.491+02:002011-05-31T12:51:47.491+02:00@Elizabeth, you absolutely won't regret it.

Although I'm no TCK I'm filled with Wanderlust and always looking for the next place to go. "I love you but I want to leave," very poignant.<br /><br />@Norman I'm so pleased that you also have the same feelings as me! Everywhere else I go it seems that people flow seamlessly around one another, but here it's all dropped shoulders and shoving through. What's worst is that I find myself doing it too. But I actually anticipate and brace. Probably means I'm worse than what annoys me most!

But when I first got here, I used to actually CALL THEM ON IT, I've since given up. My belief that one person can raise a village was shattered early on by my migraines from hitting my head repeatedly against a wall. Thus, I've grown a thicker skin and dutchized, if someone runs into me, I still say excuse me, manners being something some Dutch seemed to have never learned, but I do now keep walking not stopping to see if they're mad or not. :) I think it's just a question of letting go.....I used to get so pissed, man did I get angry and frustrated about it, but it didn't change their behavior it only made me unhappy. I think this is where that whole tolerating the unintolerable comes in that makes the Dutch who they are, they just don't give a rat's behind, so frankly I wonder, why should I :)Connienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3459710321398700680.post-5354095718298794632011-05-28T09:43:40.451+02:002011-05-28T09:43:40.451+02:00Please list your pet peeves...I'd like to comp...Please list your pet peeves...I'd like to compare notes!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3459710321398700680.post-47430784629384877242011-05-28T07:25:23.765+02:002011-05-28T07:25:23.765+02:00All understandable feelings at the 3 year mark I t...All understandable feelings at the 3 year mark I think :) It's a long adjustment period here in the Netherlands, I'm not sure why that is so but it's true, we seem to have a harder time than expats in other countries.
