Just like anyone I get lost sometimes searching the endless amount of information on the internet. I will end up in a search for totally irrelevant information on wikipedia about some Technology, war, country or whatever without really having to. It’s just an endless search for information just like watching the Discovery channel you just want to know and keep finding out more. Today I spent some time on our galaxy where I happen to run into 2 pictures; one in English and the other in Chinese. Since I study Chinese I thought it would be interested to combine the 2 and see what they mean and if they differ much.

Ever since I’ve been back in Holland the views of the site have plummeted. The theme of the site, me living in china, is gone now, since I’m not there anymore. So I’m not really know what to write about and this is why the post has started getting less and less until the total stop from already more than a month ago.

So until we will find a something interesting to write about it will be quiet on the site. When I find something interesting you can always see the updates appear on Hyves and Facebook.

Ever since I can remember I have been impressed by the drawings of Peter van Straaten(Peter from the streets). His work is on depressing matters but with a melodramatic tone. It just shows us how sad everything can be but in a funny way. At least that is what I think and most Dutch do too. I wonder if people for other cultures are also able to understand this type of whining humor. As we Dutch think we are the masters in the field of whining and the related humor in that.

I’ve always been a fan of Southpark. When it first aired it was something like never before. The way it’s drawn, the topics like always killing Kenny, beefcakes, Crab people, just total awesomeness. As with most things I kind of lost track of it in the last 4~5 years.

But now I found a new great way to watch the episodes via: xepisodes.com. Here you can watch all the episodes online for free and without any annoying commercials. They are even on track till the latest releases made. If you want a good impression about the show just watch this one it’s about why the Japanese kill all the dolphins and whales.

Today it is good Friday, so a good time to start blogging again. I found a little game which is totally in line with this christian holiday called: run Jesus run. The game is a special project and only takes 10 seconds in total. Just check it out via the link. enjoy ;-)

I listen quite some radio, at least when I’m in the Netherlands. In China it is understandable you don’t listen to the radio that much but due to this you will miss all the new and interesting music. So just like last year it lifts me up when I get in my car and turn on the radio and that you will hear good, old and new ,music. This somehow creates an extra bond with the tracks that are ‘hot’ at that moment. Last year it was ‘day and night‘ by Kid cudi. This year I have it with this track from ,a Dutch artist, Caro Emerald. Hope you like it.

Today on dumpert was a movie about the internet phenomenon Chatroulette. I found it quite amusing to see his view on the computer program. During the carnival my friend Max also introduced me the program. It’s interesting to see what happens but it is not something I have interest in to do again, at least not alone. Most funny thing was than also that we where with five people and that in the end we convinced Max to wear his carnivals’ Ice bear suit.

Unhappy couples

Last night I reinstalled my computer to run with Windows 7 instead of Vista. Before you can do this you first needed to copy all the junk you have from your computer to an external source. While I was doing this I came across some interesting things I totally forgot I still had, one of these things was this photo shoot of couples bored of being together. more inside..

As most of you would have noticed by now was that since my return to the Netherlands the posts where no longer in Dutch but the languages changed to English. The reason why can be found here if you missed it and you really need an explanation for whats going on. Beside the content of the posts all other things where still left in Dutch because it’s quite some work to change but with this official 4Th update all(red. most) is now in English and if you come across some dutch just let me know. More about the update inside.

Not only is there Carnival in Brazil, also there has been carnival in the south of Holland. The major difference between the too is that there are no hot Latina’s and that the temperature during the day does not surpass the 2 degrees.
