A Few Things About The Netherlands

First of all I have to say, that I'm a very lucky person. Because I have many Dutch friends. Actually, I was one of few International Students who have real Dutch friends. That is because usually in the minors they have only few Dutch students there and the parties and stuff is usually only for International Students. So its hard to bond with native people then. But like I said for me it was different and it was because of the minor. And that is why I'm now here again, seeing friends in this beautiful city of Utrecht.

One nice thing that you see in here is the ladies. Yes, they are very, very beautiful ones. They are long, lean and very curvy. It's kinda weird how some countries has lots of beautiful women and some has a very few. And this makes things interesting here. Even regular looking guys has here a beautiful girlfriends. Something what we in Finland never see. In here things are better on that way. And here girls are nice, you really can go and chat with them and they will respond nicely to you, they are fun and down to earth kinda girls. Me like!!! But only downsize is that, when they turn about 35-40 years old, their looks will go down quickly... But I think its because the climate... It happens for guys too in here...

The other one is the reckless immigration policy can hurt a country. Things are bad in here, but nobody cannot say anything about it in public, but when you are talking to the Dutch people, you will notice that they are very full of it... Unfortunately now same will happen to Finland too and its a shame. In here the people cannot do anything for it anymore, its too far gone already. But in Finland, we could if we want to. But about this subject I will write a much longer post at some point. I really need to see other countries too, if I want to give a full valid opinion of it.

And the last one is raising EU criticism, which I think is a very good thing. I really despise it, there really isn't nothing good about it. And here people are noticed that. So maybe there is still a hope that EU will crash down. I hope so... We will see... And about that I also will post a longer article at some point. When I have more time...

About Women, Part Two

So I have been getting some feedback about my first real post on my blog... Some has agreed and some disagreed of my point of view... And that's fair, I might be wrong, but I did wrote about things how I have experienced and seen those things. Here are a few points what disagreeing people has come up to.

1. I generalize things too much.
- That is true. I do that and I know it. It is my style to write, but when you look the deeper meaning of the writings, you see things in the real light and they usually are true, for me at least. And I write of my experiences. It's the way I see things right now...

2. Usually nice guys fall for the mean girls.
- I disagree. I myself have tried relationships with many types of girls. And the outcome has been always the same, relationship has broke up.

3. A nice girls tends to miss out the nice guys.
- I disagree. I myself and many of my friends try to find a nice girls, many have find them and some of those relationships even have been flourishing till this day and I'm pretty sure they will keep flourishing a long time into the future. But not for me. Like I answered on last question. I have been with nice girls too, and no success for me with them either.

4. At some point girls are looking for serious relationships then they will fall for the nice guys.
- I disagree. Not true at all, just look divorce rates... And many times those guys are the nice ones and girls are bored and cannot maintain the happy couple coulisse anymore. Like Baumeister said, that only less than 40% of males reproduce (for the women, reproduce rate is about 80%), so I think sometimes the dad of the babies aren't even the nice guy... And of course there is a lot divorces for the bad guys too... But I hope you all get my point on this matter...

So now I probably did make even more people angry with these comments... But I'm a realist, I can handle it.

The Trip has started!!! (So here's some first impressions...)

Now trip has started and I'm in Utrecht. I came here yesterday. It was long 8 hour travel from Tampere to Utrecht and I'm still a bit tired, but happy. It feels like nothing has really changed. I feel welcomed and people seem to be happy able to see me, as I am happy able to see them. It's a great feeling.

But something has changed and now I know what it is. A few things are missing and they are a couple very important friends of mine. They were also International Students here at my time. Now I can see that they were crucial thing to my experience in here. In good and in bad (yes, a bit of that too). Don't get me wrong here. I really, really love this place and its so nice to be back here, but the feeling is a bit different, like something is missing...

It's kinda funny to have this feeling. But now I really understand what kind of influence these people had on me. They did make my change possible and I have to thank them for that. Even if some things still pains me a lot. I did my decisions and unfortunately they were the wrong ones. I have seen this awhile now...

Yesterday I was at my friends house eating a dinner and drinking beer. It was my happiest day in awhile. Yes, maybe some of you already know that I really didn't like my job in Finland and well, usually I didn't like my life there either. Of course there was good days, but there was also a lot bad days. And I really don't have lots of friends in Finland. There is many familiar people, but only a few friends. Here it feels quite opposite and I like it a lot.

Utrecht also has now nice sales -30% up to -70%, so somebody is doing some cloth shopping tomorrow. And of course, this Dutch weather is something... Sun, rain, thunder, cloudy, sun, etc... And all in one day! It's different...

I think here is all for now... And I will put my trip schedule here soon... Probably this evening...

Nice Guys & Women (Let's Start Out With A Bang!!!)

Lately I've been reading a lots of stuff about nice guys and women. And how women almost always fancies more the douche bags (or if I put it more nicely, bad boys). And of course this is true, even if women don't want to admit it.

I, myself am a very nice guy when I'm in the relationship. Some my friends can argue about am I a nice person, but in the relationship I am. Any of my past relationships haven't last even an half of year. The famous line is always coming for me and it is "You are so nice and lovely, but...". If I remember correctly I've heard that line from last three of my ex-girlfriends. Nowadays its a pretty comical for me, but what you can do? Change? Maybe I should...

When you are a nice and fairly good looking guy it also attracts quite mean women. That kinda woman wants to manipulate and control this nice guy. They don't want a long relationship, they just want to destroy this nice guy mentally doing all the sh**** stuff. all this only for to get their low self-esteem up and someone else's self-esteem down. And yes this kinda women exists, unfortunately I know. Hehe, and yes, I said that I'm fairly good looking guy.

I'm talking about relationships now. One night stands are completely different subject. They are a fairly easy to execute. One of three "hunting" nights are successful even for a nice guy if you know what you are doing. Of course, if you are a bad boy, then its even more easier. But like I already said different subject. Relationships are the tricky ones.

So why nice guys have so hard time? Well, nice ones are always a bit boring I guess. There is no excitement or danger, guy isn't even yelling and not even arguing (usually)... Like me, I have always been open, no secrets, no grilling... Where are you going? When you are coming back? What you did you do? I never ask those questions... I only ask, did you have fun? Have to say that, it has always backfired. Nice guys are always good friends, but boring lovers. Nice guys have lots of friends, I mean girl ones. But they usually are only friends, not lovers.

Nice guys aren't alfa-males and that is really what women want. This is a good example that show us, we are animals, mammals, apes. This primeval instinct tells women that alfa-males have better sperm that these nice guys. These bad boys shows that they are brave and strong (usually they even aren't those things, but they "show" that they are...). Just what people want their children to be. This is a fact, why else dopey rock stars and film stars are so popular? Same you can see all-over the places, schools, bars etc... You cannot trust them, they will treat you like c***, but still you will love them more that these trusted nice guys.

Nice guys devotes his life to the girl. The girl feels special awhile but there is no challenge for the girl. The girl gets bored. The girl finds a guy who is screwing around and do not show much devotion towards her. The girl has to have that guy, because there is a challenge for her and other girls wants him too. Now the girls says goodbye for the nice guy...

And I even didn't write anything about money. That is because it will completely put things around. It's another story.

The New Beginning

Okey... So let's do the take two now. Last time I did try to keep a blog... Well it wasn't success. Writing can be hard when you we're having fun as an Erasmus student. But this time I will keep writing stuff, maybe once a week and I will write about things that feels interesting to me. So the blog posts will be usually weird but true... First one will be here tonight... Maybe...
