Binary Watch.

I just learned binary, at least the number part.
And I instantly got hooked, those watches are so much fun! You have people looking at you, how late is it? You take a look at LED's and you tell them the time. Can it be any simpler? (Yes actually but can it be any more fun?!)
They cost quite a lot... But I hope to get it for my birthday!

Watch out, there is a new GEEK on the loose!

Slumber Party!

What is a vacation for me if I can't see my friends?

I slept at Anna's yesterday together with the other girls and 2 boys. It's always so nice there, everyone is nice to each other and we always have lots of fun.

We watched a couple of movies, first "Not Another Teen Movie" and after that "I am Legend". Time flies and soon it was 3.30 AM when we decided to go to bed. We prepared our beds and kept chatting at the girls room. When my "room mate" decided to go to bed, the girls wanted me to stay, so we kept chatting about movies and stuff for another 15 minutes 'till I decided I'd go to bed too.
I slept pretty well, until I woke up at 7 AM because of a friggin' car alarm! My room mate woke up too and we looked at each other for a moment. Both thinking the exact same: "GRRR CAR ALARM!"
We fell asleep again till 8 AM and then at 9 AM we decided to see if the girls were awake already.

Most of them were, so we chatted for a while and then we had breakfast, with American Pancakes!

Also I got my butt kicked by Anna at "Super Smash Bros Melee".
So much fun!

Bandshirt.

It's early in the morning now, 8.51 AM and I'm pretty tired, but life has to go on, and I have to work today, I skipped doing the advertismentpapers on Friday now I have to do them today. *gasp*

Yesterday was pretty cool, I decided I wanted a new pair of jeans, black of course with chains and that kinda stuff on it, y'know like Goths and metal heads have, I am a metal head after all!
My mom was not amused when I told her this, but after lots of whining and trying to convince her it has nothing to do with "NeoNazi's" she finally gave in, but I had to pay for it myself.
So I cycled to Anna's house and picked her up and together we cycled to meet up at Pleuni's house. We chatted about us never seeing each other because neither of us takes the initiative to call or e-mail. We stored the bike's in the garden and continued on foot.
First we were going for a new bag for Pleuni. Lot's of different models and after some time we found one. Then we went for my jeans at "Cupido Fashion" it's a pretty, 'dark' shop with all the masks and music, I like it!
Too bad they didn't have any cool jeans, but then I noticed bandshirts! Cradle of Filth, I like them, but the supply was pretty limited. Nightwish, not too much choice either. Then I spotted an Arch Enemy bandshirt, from the album Doomsday Machine. Alex is gonna like this, I bought it! Check it out here!
Anna got a little bit hungry so we decided to eat at "La Place" Apparently Pleuni has a trauma for escalators so we used the elevator instead.
Soon an elevator arrived with a young woman and her little children. One of this kids touched the door as it opened, and his fingers got stuck in between the little gap the door slides back to! I didn't know what happened, so I stood there, WTF? Until I suddenly realized shit happened! I didn't know how fast I had to throw away my bag and start pulling on the door to free the little child's fingers. Those are pretty tough, I had to put my feet against the wall so I could pull harder. But soon after his fingers slid out and he was free to go. Poor little child, the woman didn't know how to thank me. But hey, being the hero of the day feels good!
Oh the meal was pretty good too, apple pie for me with some coffee.
Anna needed some paint, so we bought that and we went home.

When I arrived home I showed the shirt, my brother started laughing at me and my mom was kinda shocked because of the massive skull.
My other brother, I think, wasn't amused either. What's the big deal? If I feel comfortable in it, why can't I wear it? They are laughing about it now, but hey this is not going to be my only bandshirt!

Holiday and Numbers.

Finally, Holiday just started for me, but for most people it's already over, Ha...

So I'm gonna work on my coaster, live stream a lot of it (You can find it here. Tomorrow I'm going to my mom's school for "Carnaval". (I hate it, but hey a day at that school is totally awesome!) I'm gonna finish my website as far as possible and game, I am also gonna paint for art class. What are you gonna do in your Holiday, or if it's already over, what did you do?

Numbers, I love numbers but don't you have a number you encounter everyday?
My number is 37, when I look at the clock it's xx:37 when I watch how long a song is playing on my Mp4 or PC it says 37, When I do maths I get the number 37, I just got my paycheck and I get paid €4.37 an hour. Insanity!

Do you have one of those numbers too? It's pretty scary if you ask me. *shivers*

Music, Maths and what more?

Yeah totally awesome, we need to pick a song for music class at school and play it with a small group. We chose "Hey Joe" from Jimi Hendrix, and I get to play the bass line! So I'm kinda desperately finding someone to borrow me a bass guitar otherwise I am stuck with my semi-acoustic one with a shorter neck. I can practice the bass tabs on that too, but the real feel is so much better!
I'm not sure how long we have to practice it, but we are trying to get access to the classroom during breaks. I'm lucky I play a lot of instruments, so if any of my "Band members" are in trouble I can give them a short course on how to play a part and so on!
Let's hope we can pull it off.

So Maths, it's so easy. I got a test tomorrow and I barely have to learn for it, I tried a couple of the 'hardest' exercises, but I had no trouble making them, so I am pretty confident that I will get a good mark. The only thing that bothers me, is that they always find a way to make it a lot harder than you expected it to be, either by making really hard exercises or making it really long so you get short on time.
I'd get a good mark, pretty sure about that ;)

Also, a friend of mine kinda started a war on who would get the most blog hits, and he is on the lead, laughing in my face because I am doing all the "publicity-stuff" Obviously he didn't notice that if you read my blog at hyves it doesn't register a page-view, thus leaving me behind. So it'd be cool if you helped me out and just go to www.gimaxweblog.tk to watch it next time, haha.

To everyone at Hyves.

I will not post on my blog in Dutch!

Reasons:
1. This blog is linked from www.gimax-maxlaam.blogspot.com using a .tk domain at www.gimaxweblog.tk This means that you are not the only one who reads this blog.

2. I am linked to an English gaming community, meaning that they (can) only read English.

3. It's a good practice for myself trying to write proper English sentences and train my grammar.

4. It's good practice for you too, seeing how bad the pronunciation from the Dutch in general actually is. And it is also a nice way to expand your vocabulary.

5. English is my second language I taught myself. I never learned for my English tests in a serious way. And as long as it lasts I am not planning on doing so either.

Saturday and webspace, a quicky.

I will be helping at school at the Physics class with a friend of mine. Showing demo's to future students. And try to convince them that our school totally rocks.

I also managed to get a webspace with unlimited space from an old mate of mine I met online at a gaming community. It's hosted at an US server, but that shouldn't bother us too much.

Let's round it up real quick, I'm tired and it's already past midnight, blèh!
I will not give the link till I finished up the homepage, which is far from actually.
Creating an interactive website is not as easy as it looks!
