So because the Dirty Thirty-party couldn't really So because the Dirty Thirty-party couldn't really be a thing this year, and because I still wanted to have some grotesque way to celebrate my 30th birthday, I bought these ridiculously tall helium balloons to make my quarantine home feel like something big is happening. (For real, they hardly fit in our apartment)

I fucking love my birthday, and no one is going to take that feeling away from me. Here's to me being a 30-year-old!

This is the Gelredome arena. Last time I was here This is the Gelredome arena. Last time I was here was 4 november 2000 - when I went to my very first concert ever - by miss Britney Spears. My parents got me tickets for my birthday and it was the most amazing night ever. I got to see my then-idol, was so impressed with the size of the arena and I got to stay up way past bedtime. 
Skip to 18 years later: the past two days I have been working in the accreditation crew at Justin Timberlake and Imagine Dragons shows at this very venue. Life is funny sometimes.

Today I did something I've been wanting to do for Today I did something I've been wanting to do for the longest time: playing guitar on stage. Armed with one of my favorite Distillers-songs, an amazing supergroup of musicians, a small, nearly sold-out venue, a racing heartbeat and a couple of other singers who would also chase their dreams that day, I stepped on stage.

Life has a sense of humor, though; yesterday, when I put my guitar down for a sec, the headstock broke off. Like, the entire thing just snapped off. Cue panic attack. 
Luckily, @yoramvdvelde lent me one of his far-too-metal-for-me babies and I was able to play today. 
It was so much fun. I'm going to do this more often.

It's one of my favourite feelings: opening the doo It's one of my favourite feelings: opening the door of a big, dark, empty music venue, deactivating the alarm, and starting with the production of the day - all alone. Sitting on the floor in an empty hall, in complete silence, knowing that there will be over one thousand people just a few hours later.

Don't you love the way this looks? I fucking love Don't you love the way this looks? I fucking love @carnivale.nl so much. An old-fashioned circus and theatre-festival, with street performers and variety shows. Fear to sexy strippers, excitement to fire, dance, motors and a boxing ring. Oh, and my dad performs there. 🙂
Now back to being sick.

Today, for my birthday, I went to my favorite zoo. Today, for my birthday, I went to my favorite zoo. I made friends with a camel that wouldn't stop following me, saw a hippo twirl, played around with prairie dogs (that are mostly balls with eyes), went to the garden of butterflies, saw some lions fuck one single lady (yes, literally), and saw these MAGICAL fairytale-like sea turtles. Now, drinks with friends. Today is phenomenal. #birthday #zoo #iloveanimals #timeforalcohol
