They are my friends!

Porque cada vez que oigo esta canción me acuerdo de mi último día en Zwolle, de camino al centro con Rubén, para enviar la caja con las cosas de Chabe, cantandola mientras ibamos en bici, y pensando en todos los amigos increibles que habia hecho durante el erasmus, lo que sentía por ellos y el poco tiempo que me quedaba estando con ellos en Zwolle. Grácias por este buen recuerdo rubencillo! Y gracias a todos por estos cinco meses increibles... sois mis amigos! You're my friends!


Marta me llamó
a las 6 hora española
sólo para hablar,
sólo se sentía sola
porque Sebas se marchó
de nuevo a Buenos Aires
el dinero se acabó
ya no hay sitio para nadie

Dónde empieza
y dónde acabará
el destino que nos une
y que nos separará

Yo estoy sola en el hotel
estoy viendo amanecer
Santiago de Chile
se despierta ante montañas

Aguirre toca la guitarra en la 304
un gato rebelde
que anda medio enamorao
de la señorita Rock'n'roll
aunque no lo ha confesado
eso lo sé yo

Son mis amigos
en la calle pasábamos las horas
Son mis amigos
Por encima de todas las cosas

Carlos me contó
que a su hermana Isabel
la echaron del trabajo
sin saber por qué
no le dieron ni las gracias
porque estaba sin contrato
aquella misma tarde
fuimos a celebrarlo
ya no tendrás que soportar
al imbécil de tu jefe
ni un minuto más

Son mis amigos
en la calle pasábamos las horas
Son mis amigos
Por encima de todas las cosas

Lidia fue a vivir a Barcelona
y hoy ha venido a mi memoria
Claudia tuvo un hijo
y de Guille y los demás
ya no se nada

Son mis amigos
en la calle pasábamos las horas
Son mis amigos
Por encima de todas las cosas

Son mis amigos
en la calle pasábamos las horas
Son mis amigos
Por encima de todas las cosas

Son mis amigos


Marta called me
at six spanish hour
only for speaking,
only she was feeling alone
because Sebas went away
again to Buenos Aires
the money finished
there's already no place for anybody

Where does it begin
and where will it finish
the destiny that unites us
and what will separate us

I'm alone in the hotel
I'm whaching the sun rising
Santiago de Chile
wakes up between mountains

Aguirre plays the gitar in the 304
a rebel cat
walks half in love
of Miss Rock'n'roll
although she haven't confesed it
I know it

They are my friends
in the street we passed the hours
They are my friends
above all the things

Carlos told me
that to her sister Isabel
they have fired her from the work
without knowing why
they didn't give her neither the thank you
because she was without contract
that same afternoon
we went to celebrate it
you won't have to stand
the imbecile of your boss
neither one minute more

they are my friends
in the street we were passing the hours
they are my friends
above all the things

Lidia came to live in Barcelona
and today it has comed to my memory
Claudia had a son
and about Guille and the rest
I don't know anything

They are my friends
in the street passed the hours
they are my friends
above all the things

They are my friends
in the street passed the hours
they are my friends
above all the things

They are my friends

my goodbye... our goodbye

Ana and me went together to Amsterdam the same day to take the plane to Spain. Each one to a different place, Ana to Madrid and me to Barcelona. Barcelona... Barcelona... it sounds weird to me... I didn't know what I was going to find there, how was I going to feel... what about was I going to speak with my family and friends? were they going to understand me? I was not stressed at all: "we will see..." I was thinking.

The night before was so quiet, but nice at the same time, all together, having dinner and speaking... Itamar showing the room to the next erasmus people from las Palmas, with the webcam (and Rubén writting "cocina" and "amigo que pelo" thousands of times ;)).

In the morning, taking everything from the walls of the room, and at the end, taking the baggage and saying goodbye (with the stressed moment of the taxi... it was 15 min. late). It was sad to say goodbye but not as sad as before. Ana and me were amazed, we thought it was going to be much more hard, but I think we were crying and being sad during the whole last week, so we didn't drink water enought for crying more ;) nono, seriously, I think we assumed the fact we were leaving, and all the time we were crying for all the people that was leaving, we were crying also for us, and because we didn't want to leave that.

Anyway, we will miss everybody. And the people that still remained there was so good (now everybody is in his own place) and we will miss them all.

I think I have known really special people, and I'm very lucky for knowing this kind of good people. But I will leave the conlusions for another post... You will have to wait ^^

Big kisses and tot ziens!!

Goodbye week :(

Good bye week. Sad week. crying week...The last week. It's all the same. With the goodbye of Alejandra, almost everybody began to say goodbye.

Next day, Cristiana and Adriano, buaaaaaaaa :( Carrica people far away from leliestraat.
The following days, a little bit of breath, nobody was leaving so we could reestablish our lifes. During the week, Johan and Fabrice left and saturday early morning Ockie and Otman... Very sad goodbyes, very nice people.

But saturday, last night for a lot of people, all the belgium girls: Sandrine, Flore, Claudia, Sophie... Sunday morning (like Lou Reed said...) was a very sad one. Each hour one of them was leaving... we were going to miss them all.

And tuesday morning... Chabe and Martín. So hard. All the night together and in the early morning, they took the train to Amsterdam, a very difficult goodbye, they almost loose the train, we couldn't say them goodbye in a good way.

Very sad goodbyes for a very nice people... it's hard to thing that we will not meet for a long time with some of them.

At the same time, all of this week, we were thinking about the fact of leaving Zwolle and leaving all our erasmus life, the bike, the enviroment, the city, ... So hard. Time was comming also, till the end, the same way it was comming when for the counting down for going there. That's life :)

tot ziens!
