Work to do

Well, duties are calling. I have to finish a project for Computer Graphics before next Friday [I've quite some nice ideas, but they have to crystalize into usable code yet...]. Tomorrow there's my regular job too, so that's another day I can't work at the project. Ah well, I should …

Reflections

And another year has passed. A year in which I turned the nice age of 21, in which we had to buy a new car because I trashed the previous one on a otherwise very beautiful holidays in Italy at the Garda Lake. Me and my lovely girl where together …

Tired

Ok, this is not another rant about those stupid trains [yeah, had to wait 25 minutes at the freezing station of Amsterdam Sloterdijk]. Not about the things I did at my work [besides sleeping ;)]. Yeah, lets talk about sleeping. Or, better, lets practice it! Cya!

Christmas is over. And stuff.

Well, that was one cozy, food-overloaded Christmas :). 2nd xmas day was with my girlfriend at her place. Again lots of nice things to eat and nice people to chat with [in real life that is :P]. Saturday was a day to do nothing. Well, to sleep late, watch a recorded …

1st xmas day

Well, had a nice day today with grandparents from both sides, my girlfriend, sister and my parents. Very cosy, loads of food. Good day :) Just round up some tweaks to the css [less whitespace, more room for rants :)] and finished the archive functionality. Simplified the navigation [again], because this is …

Merry Christmas!

Just wanted to say to all of you: Merry Christmas! If you ain't a Christian [kinda like me], just enjoy these hopefully happy days!

Stunned

Well, just saw Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. And I'm dumbstruck. Damn what a fine movie! Didn't follow the book at every point, but that's only for the good. It was a long sit [bladder acked from the cola ;)], but it was 3,5h pure excitement …

Cube

Almost bought a Gamecube with Mariocart: Double dash, four Zelda classics etc. Only 144 euros. But I need a 2nd controller to play Mariocart nicely [33 euro] and a memorycard [16MB: 29 euro], for being able to save games at all. Quick sum is 196 euros. Maybe another time ;)


Finally some normal xmas music

Until I fix my blogmarks section I've to post nice links here. Here it goes: Christmas music from various 8bit video games, 8 people made 8 different songs on 8 different 8 bit computers [yeah, golden oldies :)]. Now *that's* nice Christmas music. Eat that Mariah Currysoup :P

Signing out

Well, I've said and done enough for today. Just cleaned up the code of this blog and am going to get some rest before working tomorrow. But not only working: /me is going to experience LOTR:TROTK [or in normal English: Lord of the Rings: The Return of The King …

Whoohoo, DB working!

I copied the last five postings to the DB by using my little input tool, modified the dates so they where the right ones again, and it all looked fine :). So, now I'm posting via the input tool I made for this fine rantbox! Life is kinda sweet after all …

Weird

Weird day today. First, the sun suddenly started shining. Then I found out I most likely threw away the letter with the receipt for getting my OV card [card needed to travel with the train, metro etc for "free"]. Think I was a little to rigorous while cleaning up my …

Wintery weather

Well, I was planning to have my haircut redone today [yeah, has been a long time ago, I know], but the weather isn't playing nice with me. It's been snowing and hailing all morning and I've to bike to the center of our city. Ah well, going to take the …

My very own rantbox

Actually started implementing this box. First "rant": my changelog to this site for this day: Started implementing my rantbox Deleted not-needed pages [some of it's information will be back at the aquariusoft.org website]. Validated the pagetemplate against the W3 validator, so it seems to be valid xhtml now [instead …

Darn trains

Argh, how I hate the NS [Dutch Railways]... I was up early to catch the train of 8:28AM on the other side of the station [for your information: that's a fair amount of sleepwalking]. So I bought my ticket, wandered over to the platform: empty indicator. So I checked …

W00ps! Server compromised...

A big day today; at 17:18 the motd of my server has been modified. Not by me. That means: my server has been compromised! Luckily, it's one of my good friends [Khargoz, you biatch ;-P]
