Seconds

See, already I'm doing my second post. Offcourse this could've been avoided had I simply read through all available information before making my first, but then again I would've had to title my rant about how terrible I am at firsts "seconds"and for some reason that didn't really work for me.

Wellnow.. Since I'll be using this post to get my picture in my profile and everything I might as well use it as a "get to know me"post. So if you are not really a fan of those, please for now go to another blog, or, if you read this a bit later on when there are more posts, continue on to the next one. As far as I know anything about myself, I'll not be filling anything I write with this type of information, so the next one(s) will be decidedly less boring.

hmm, who is me? My name is Kevin. I'm a 24 year old dutch man, biseksual (first I was straight, then bisexual, then gay, now biseksual), I live near Amsterdam, and work in Amsterdam, in a job I really like.
The picture was taken at work, by a coworker with a webcam that was not al that well adjusted to bright fluorescent lighting, so I look a bit, well, whiter that I would normally do. but at least my hair is shiny...

I read like books will become extinct tomorrow (and WILL kill myself if they do), love movies and music, and make a very good accesory to have hanging on your arm for parties and suchlike, since I'm told I can be quite funny & charming and look good in a tux (but then again, who doesn't?)

For now, that will be it. The rest of my personality quirks will become apparent in my posts, I'm sure.

Firsts

Firsts for me have always been a slight issue. I'm bad with firsts. Seconds are fine, by thirds I'm usually either happily swinging away or already deciding that things aren't really my thing, but firsts...
First dates...disaster, first days at a new job...yes I know you've already said your name but I've forgotten...Boss.., first time meeting friends of friends who've heard more about me than I have about them...Hello I am K..-oh...-right...well, that was a lie...he added a bit to that story..wel that part was true...put DOWN THE CHAIR!!!..

This is my first attempt at blogging. it might not (yet) be fancy, but still, it's there. I am in no way suggesting that this will be a regular thing, although I will try, nor am I really certain what this will all be about (best guess: movies, books, people, ME).
At this point, it's actually kinda neat. People usually say stuff to me like "you should write that down, that was funny" and that may very well be something I'll enjoy doing, writing stuff down.

Not that my life as such is really intresting, well, it is to me, obviously, and usually when I tell people about it there is much laughter and rejoicing (by them, usually I glare and rant, but then again, 'tis my life right?) so I guess I have a way with words, after all. A couple of weeks ago my mobile phone was stolen, and I send my friends a mail about having lost all my numbers and shite, and more than one replied with the statement that only I would be able to turn a stolen phone into a readable and funny experience.
This being said, I'm sure that counts for a good deal of blogging people. But I have noticed i'm very good at getting into "situations", and at least oone of my friends sticks around for the entertainment I can provide. I hope to do the same for anyone reading this.
Well, check back here sometime soon, I'm up for a well filled weekend and will most likely be able to have something to say in about four days or so. Or, you know, don't check back, it's a free world and no hard feelings if you don't.

Grtz,
Kev.

Ps. As far as commenting goes: yes please. I'm trying to find a good style of writing still and nothing helps as much as good criticism. My first language is dutch, so comments in dutch or english are fine by me. I'll do my utmost to translate anything german or french, but make no promises. :)
