Coping with public and private transport since 2001
Recetly, you might have exerienced some sluggishness and a hickup. Timmo: sorry I lost your reply! Due to a migration of this site to a new and improved install of the server, with more secure versions of PHP and mySQL, some mishaps occurred with the old system. A DB had to be put back from the backup, and thus I
Continue readingThis week has started really early for me, as I got into my car at 05:45 this morning to go to Groningen. For those wondering how far that would be for me: pretty far! Grotere kaart weergeven I’ll be here for three days, and two nights. All I can say is that Groningen is a pretty city, I hope I
Continue readingThis weekend, I’ve competed in a A,B,C,D-tournament at Conquesto, Waddinxveen. It is one of the nicer tournaments. Well organized, nice accommodation and nice people. I”ve played single, men’s double and mixed double in the C-level, with pretty nice outcome. I lost the semi-final in the single’s competition, and the same holds for the men’s double. The mixed double (with my

Done! yay! *celebrates* Update (2008-04-07): I’ve had to reschedule the appointment to
Continue readingThis kind of sums up the last week. I asked my supervisors at the university to accept the semi-final version to be the final version, for me to hand the thesis in officially and to finally graduate. It now is over a week since I received any communication from my first supervisor, so I’m getting anxious. Trust me, I’ve tried

My income at Ordina is not bad at all for an intern, yet it is far from enough to pursuade the bank to lend me the sack of money needed to buy our house. Therefore, I’ve decided to take up the offer graciously made
Continue readingAs of today, your most favorited blogger is back. I went AWOL last week, to rest a bit and generally do a whole lot of nothing. So I did, and today I returned to the daily business of travelling to and from Nieuwegein. I’m really nearing completion of the thesis, so I’ll be posting updates soon!
Continue readingThere is a point in your life, when you and your partner decide you want to be together each and every day of the week, or at least as many days of the week as possible. This decision often is referred to as ‘living together’, which is the decision Kirsten and I made a little while ago. Yesterday we went
