Droom
Posted by Tom van der Woerdt in Me on August 30, 2010
Het gebeurt niet vaak, maar ook ik verlaat af en toe het huis – deze keer omdat ik naar Frankrijk ging! Ik ben vanaf de 20e tot en met de 29e (tien dagen dus, inclusief busreis) in het franse plaatsje Axat (-wiki) geweest via de reisorganisatie Simbo met een groep van veertien plus twee begeleiders. [...]
Open dag Stad en Esch 2010
Posted by Tom van der Woerdt in Uncategorized on January 23, 2010
De open dag van mijn school. Tja, da’s één keer per jaar, vier sessies verspreid over twee dagen. In de brugklas heb ik meegeholpen voor techniek, in de tweede klas heb ik meneer Luten geholpen met de voorbereidingen, in de derde, vierde en vierde heb ik niks gedaan, en ik heb deze keer op de [...]
Goede voornemens voor 2010
Posted by Tom van der Woerdt in Uncategorized on December 31, 2009
Voor iemand die 2009 een kutjaar vond is het maken van goede voornemens toch echt wel makkelijk. Minder computeren. Wakoopa.com/tvdw zegt op het moment dat ik sinds 22 maart 2009 (omgerekend) 2505 uur heb gecomputerd. Dat zou betekenen dat ik sinds 1 januari 2009 (ongeveer) 3615 uur heb gecomputerd. Ik schrik daar van, maar ik [...]
Not just a review
Posted by Tom van der Woerdt in Uncategorized on November 11, 2009
Funny. I just realized, after finishing the latest Call of Duty Singleplayer, that I already blogged about this before. Just not so specific. No, this isn’t going to be another review about Modern Warfare 2, because there are plenty of those. No, this one will be a lot more specific: the idea behind the story [...]
Something to look forward to
Posted by Tom van der Woerdt in Uncategorized on November 1, 2009
It’s Monday morning, 12:10 AM. I woke up at 1 PM. I should be sleeping, but because I’m awake for only 11 hours, I can’t. Monday morning is usually the time I think about things. Tonight as well. My last tweet was about me needing a Bashir-62. It’s a Star Trek “holo-program”. Then I realized [...]
iTunes Store? Never again.
Posted by Tom van der Woerdt in Uncategorized on October 27, 2009
Every now and then, I download some songs from the internet. I respect the authors of these songs, so I usually buy them from iTunes. But I also have the good habit of cleaning my computer every 2 to 3 months (windows re-install) so I did that a few days ago. Basically, what you expect [...]
An average saturday night
Posted by Tom van der Woerdt in Me on October 18, 2009
But not for me. A friend of mine, Bob, took me out to a club. I had never been to one before, so it was new for me. However, I do have to point out that we were in Schagen (which is where Bob lives) and not in Meppel (where I live). Since these places [...]
Climate Change
Posted by Tom van der Woerdt in Uncategorized on October 15, 2009
This blog post was written for Blog Action Day, http://www.blogactionday.org/ Our climate is changing. Probably even more than we know. Many of us know we have to do something about it. The country I live in, The Netherlands, is already making some laws to “help” us, by, for example, prohibiting sale of the old-style light [...]
Hilversum TV studios
Posted by Tom van der Woerdt in Me on October 5, 2009
So, how often does it happen that you get invited to the Hilversum television studios? Well, for me this is the first time. You see, I have been invited to the studios to do some background work on a “omroep Max” programme about computers (obviously). Old people will be asking questions and I will be [...]
Problems with Skype
Posted by Tom van der Woerdt in Uncategorized on September 9, 2009
It can happen to everyone. You have a problem with Skype. So, what you do: you go to www.skype.com and try finding a solution. Too bad, you are the first one. So, you open a support ticket. A few days later, you get a reply from them. Basically, there’s an Indian guy trying to answer [...]
