i think i should also mention that my apartment overlooks the Dutch countryside...specifically a farm field where four black horses graze, day in and day out. i get my morning kicks by sitting at my window with my tea, watching them fight each other. horses can be pretty vicious when they're sparring.
the other definitive aspect of Diemen is the fact that every time i want to park my bike i have to kick away all the beer cans and shopping carts that are in my way.
