HEMA - online winkelen →
From my uncle:
HEMA is a Dutch department store. The first store opened on November 4, 1926, in Amsterdam.
Now there are 150 stores all over the Netherlands. Take a look at HEMA’s product page. You can’t order anything and it’s in Dutch but just wait a couple of seconds and watch what happens.
Don’t click on any of the items in the picture, just wait and see what...

I used to live with the bride and are friends with a few of her friends, yet wasn’t in their sorority and I’m not close with them so always feel left out. And so many girls in one place freaks me out, I get nervous. I have girlfriends and feel relatively comfortable around most women, but dealing with a ton of girls at once is not my forte. I am scared and shaking at the thought of it....

Hmmm.
I fucked up my theme on Saturday and after an insane weekend, have not had time to fix it. My bad. Notes and comments are gone, I think I was looking at themes and accidentally installed a new one to my main tumblelog which was not what I wanted to do. Working a double today so it will not be getting done till tomorrow or later… UNLESS. Someone wants to fix it for me and make it pretty?

It gets you really good, and there’s no hangovers. I wear the glasses because, first of all, I’m just the shit, so I don’t want anybody to mess with me....
