Holland's Own
To my good friend in Hilversum who email linked me to this new fodder for my blog-- Dank je wel!
Is the next Dutch Idol among them?
Something About Me
- Jenn in Holland
- The story begins like this: A couple of years ago my husband got a crazy notion in his head that returning to school after years in the professional world might be a good idea. So he and I along with our three children left our suburban life in the U.S. and traded it for a new adventure in The Netherlands.
The saga continues like this: A year of post graduate study was so much fun, we figured we'd stay a while longer. Working in a new field, attending new schools and living in a new city, I dare say we have settled into a rhythm in our expat lives.
This blog is the record I keep of our experiences here; good, bad and hilarious. Intended as an outlet for my expression, this is the place for me to say my something.
I welcome you warmly.

You don't need my help! Great job with the video.
ReplyDeleteOk I had time to actually WATCH the video. Was that suppose to be a parody?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately no, it is not a parody. This is the parade of rejects from the "Dutch Idol" competition. Similar to the way William Hung shot to fame a few years ago in the U.S. after his American Idol audition, this is the Dutch version of setting up those who made the "bad auditions" show.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, I giggle as much at this as I ever did watching W. Hung's "She Bangs". Does that make me warped and heartless?
Okay -- so the Dutch take great pride in their windows and their nic-nacs. But what about their teeth!? They're not "simply the best," are they :)
ReplyDeleteOh my! That was so funny when the audience was plugging their ears. And as much as I do not enjoy IDOL, I like to watch the rejects when they show them on our news networks. At least I can find some humorous value in it, eh?
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
