Tumbleweed is rolling by

My blog has been silent for too long, but I’ve been working too much and my thoughts are one scrambled mess. I did a number of other things though, including visiting the Indian Summer Festival with Faragon. Expect a nice review of it soon, it was much fun and I expect the festival to [...]

Wii replaced

As many of you might know because I only whined about it a million times, my Wii broke about 3 weeks ago. It wouldn’t go past the starting screen, and if it ever tried, the system would hang after that. I doubted which way I should go: send the Wii directly to Nintendo, in [...]

I has a jay oh bee!

I haven’t had the time to write a post about it before since the whole thing went so incredibly fast, but by now I’ve had my first working week as a junior translator at IBM. Last week I got an e-mail on tuesday, in which my boss at TechText told me IBM was looking [...]

When you wake up and feel like deleting stuff, stay in bed

So I felt like deleting lots of stuff, or something. Or I just didn’t think about it when I accidentally deleted wilgje.net from my domains list on GoDaddy (thank heavens that they fixed that fast for me, or I would have been unable to blog this!). Or when I deleted my whole phonebook along [...]

Speech therapy

It’s been a bit quiet here, but no worries: two book reviews are on their way. I just need to refine them somewhat. In the mean time life has been a bit chaotic for me. My former speech therapist, whom I’d been seeing since I was eleven, referred me to another therapist. She’s not [...]

Happy new year people, animals and trees out there :)

Oh and this is what it looks like when you set approximately 172 sparklers (‘sterretjes’) on fire:

Missing out on all the good stuff

A few weeks ago I started reading Asimov, and I found out I should have done that ages ago. The guy doesn’t just write a bit about robots, he’s a genius. However, that is precisely the problem: whenever somebody tells me some artist, book, movie, album or song is genious, that is a reason [...]

New gadget: the iRiver S10

Last Monday I decided to order the daily offer from iBOOD, which was a brand new iRiver S10 2GB mp3 player. Today I got it and I must say, it’s hard not to drool all over it.

I’ve always loved the look and feel of any version of the iPod, but looks [...]

Small update

So my internship is over, it ended last Thursday. It should have ended Wednesday but I made the fatal mistake of oversleeping that day, so I had to go to work the day after instead. Never ever trust an alarm clock… I kindof sortof got a job offer, I think. What my boss said [...]

Hoera! Ik word oud(er)!

Ter duidelijkheid: als je niet op de lijst staat ga ik je bier niet betalen!!!

Komende zondag (30 september) is het alweer 24 jaar geleden dat ik in de wieg gesmeten werd, en daarom wordt het weer eens tijd om dit te vieren. Daarom wil ik dit gaan doen op 5 oktober (dat is [...]
