Man, what a day! Seriously, I can’t even. So, I woke up in my tiny apartment on de Lutte, right? Just another day in Losser, or so I thought. I’m a texture artist, so I usually chill at home, working on my digital stuff. But today? Nah, not happening.
First off, I step outside, and it’s raining. Like, classic Dutch weather, am I right? I’m dodging puddles on de Wethouder Witteveenstraat, and I’m already over it. I mean, come on, can a guy catch a break? I’m just trying to get to the café on de Molenstraat for my daily caffeine fix.
So, I finally get to the café, and guess what? The barista, this dude named Joris, spills my coffee all over the counter. I’m like, “Dude, really?” But he’s super chill about it, laughing it off. I can’t help but laugh too. I mean, it’s just coffee, right? But still, I’m like, “C’mon, man, I need this to survive!”
After that, I decide to take a stroll through the park on de Kloosterstraat. It’s kinda nice, you know? Trees everywhere, and the smell of wet grass. But then, outta nowhere, this kid on a bike zooms past me and splashes mud all over my jeans. I’m standing there, looking like a walking disaster. I’m like, “Great, just what I needed!”
But then, I see this old lady feeding ducks by the pond. She’s got this huge bag of bread, and she’s just tossing it like she’s in a bread-throwing competition. I can’t help but smile. It’s the little things, right? I mean, who doesn’t love ducks?
So, I’m feeling a bit better, and I head over to the local art gallery on de Schoolstraat. I’m all about textures, so I’m checking out this exhibit. There’s this one piece that’s just a giant wall of different fabrics. I’m staring at it, thinking, “Man, I could totally use this for my next project.”
But then, I overhear this couple arguing. Like, full-on shouting. They’re going back and forth about something ridiculous. I’m just standing there, trying to focus on the art, but their drama is way too loud. I’m thinking, “Dude, take it outside!”
Finally, I leave the gallery, and I’m walking back home, just trying to process the day. I pass by the old church on de Kerkstraat, and it hits me how beautiful this place is. I mean, Losser has its charm, right? The old buildings, the cobblestone streets. It’s like a postcard.
But then, I trip over a loose stone. Classic me. I’m like, “Seriously?!” I look around to see if anyone saw, but thankfully, it’s just me and the pigeons. They don’t judge, right?
By the time I get home, I’m exhausted. I plop down on my couch, and I’m just thinking about how wild today was. From coffee spills to duck-feeding grandmas, it’s been a rollercoaster. I grab my laptop and start working on my textures, trying to channel all this chaos into my art.
And you know what? I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Losser might be small, but it’s full of surprises. Just like me, I guess.
