Tuesday, August 14, 2007, 12:24 PM - Travel
First of all, sorry for the abrubt ending last time, but my time was coming to an end. Like it is more often the case when I'm traveling here. We are a bit too busy to make time for things like the internet. But I will continue where I ended last time! After the terrible thunderstorm when we were in the thunderstorm we went back to Auckland to get some sleep. Read More...

First 3 days in New Zealand 
Saturday, August 11, 2007, 02:04 PM - Travel
3 pictures added August 14th!

In the plane I didn’t sleep at all, so I only had 4 hours of sleep in like 2 days. Therefore I was kind of broken when I arrived in NZ. Peter and Paul Mulligan (Peter’s Irish roommate) picked me up at the airport and then we first drove to Helmsville and then to North Head. It looked nice on the map, but actually there was nothing, just a filthy beach! That evening we went to the cinema, to see the Simpsons (the movie), this was hilarious, although I missed a couple of minutes because I was sleeping! Read More...

I just wrote a very long story about my stay in Tokyo, Japan, but when I wanted post that story I was logged out! Therefore a very brief story and maybe later I will write a long story again! Read More...

Almost on vacation! 
Monday, July 30, 2007, 12:03 PM - Personal
The master study is finished, I moved my stuff from Enschede to Barger-Compascuum and now I'm busy packing my bags for the trip to Tokyo and New Zealand.

Tomorrow I will first go from Amsterdam to Tokyo. There I will stay alone, as fas as you can be alone in a city with 12 million inhabitants. There I will only stay for 3 nights, so I will have a busy schedule there! But I'm looking forward to be there a couple of days and to see the culture and experience a large crowd in a city.

After Tokyo I will head to Auckland (New Zealand) to meet a friend of mine who just had a traineeship there. The first month I will be traviling with him through as wel as the north as the south island of New Zealand. After the first month he will return to Holland and I will stay another month in New Zealand by myself. The second month I will meet some relatives who moved to New Zealand in the 50's. I'm looking forward to meet them and of course also to see and taste the culture and the nature of New Zealand!

Hope to keep you posted on a regular basis!!!

Shrek the Third 
Sunday, July 22, 2007, 07:39 PM - Movies

Shrek the Third

First I wanted to go to this movie with the entire tennis team, but I only went with one (Erik). Before the movie started I already was laughing out loud when the preview of Simpsons the movie and Ratatouille started!

But about Shrek, the second part was not as good as the first part. But the third part was really good. I laughed through the entire movie haha. There was no part that I didn't like. The best parts were the parts with Pinocchio and Puss in Boots, but especially Donkey is very good again!!!

Because I don't want to tell you too much about this movie, I just say that everyone who wants a very nice evening out and wants to laugh a lot, this is a very good movie!!! I will give it an eight!!!

Greetings,
Paul :-)
