This last week I haven't been able to concentrate a whole lot on my project. Monday I made a Use Case and a Class Diagram (which were later deleted by an unknown colleague, but that's beside the point) :( After that I had a whole lot of more stuff to work on, but I just couldn't focus. I couldn't focus on my classes, I couldn't focus on my work, I couldn't focus on writing and I couldn't focus on UML. Instead, whenever I had to do something, I went on facebook/twitter/hotmail/blogspot to wait on something to read/comment/reply.
Yes, my name is Friso and I'm a social addict. I live for replying on a twitter, and I'm ecstatic when I get a reply or get retweeted. I read all the status'of my friends on facebook to see what they're up to. And yes I know that it would be more social to call them and actually talk with them, but it seems just easier to go to FB. And no, I don't plan on treating it, I just need to get my focus back.
On another note, I'M GOING TO MY FIRST NERDFIGHTER GATHERING IN 2 WEEKS!!! :D I'm so anxieted about it (that's right, I joined anxious and excited together in one week). I'm not sure what I should expect, but I'll go as prepared as possible!
I'll be taking my poi, my camera, my notebook, something to eat, something to drink and something to read. I really hope to meet new people, maybe even new friends. :)

First blog, yeah :)
So, I've tried bloggin a few times before, but I never really followed through.
This WILL be different, for several reasons:
1. I want to write a book and blogging seems like a good way to practice. I will also start participating at NaNoWriMo in order to practice.
2. I have thoughts rolling around in my head all the time, to quick for me to catch. I will use my blogs to order my thoughts and remember my ideas.
3. Lastly, I also make vlogs on youtube and one of my... I'm not sure whatchamacallit, one of the reasons??? that I started vlogging, also blogs. And I really hope to become an open and forthright person like her.
Now a few things about me:
1. I'm studying computer science at the Hague University. It's been a lot of fun so far. I have had 2 project and am currently working on my 3rd. The first project was to build an application that has a connection with a database.
Although this was very interesting, I liked the second project more. This was because we had to make a game, in this case Sokoban, and it has become the basis for a game that I am currently designing (though not for school, just for myself and maybe later for you).
I am currently working on a maintenance project, which means that we have been given a pre-build application that we are supposed to improve through several releases. Alse we get several incident reports, which we are supposed to resolve.
2. I have started vlogging this year. I am still very new at it and I'm not sure what I really want to on my channel. So, for now I am making random videos. I have several ideas for things that I can do and I will try them out, hoping that I will find something that I really want to do in the long run.
I also really want to go to vidcon one day, but the soonest that I can go to will probably be in 2 years. Next year I want to go to Japan, which I am really looking forward to. After that I'll just have to see if I can save up enough money to go to vidcon the year after.
3. I play Warhammer, both Fantasy and 40K. It is one of the things that I can fully focus on and helps me clear my mind. I have collected several armies already, most recently Blood Angels and Warriors of Chaos. The next army that I want is Ogre Kingdoms. I have a cool (at least I think it's cool, and that's all that really matters in this hobby) to convert, base and paint it. I will probably vlog about the conversions and painting. But it'll have to wait 'till after my birthday, since by then I'll have saved up enough to buy it in one take.
Well, it's getting pretty late and I still have to finish some documention for my project by tomorrow. So I'll stop the blog here. I have one last thing to ask; I get most of my inspiration from other people when I do things, so if you happen to know a blogger that you really like and think I might like as well, please send me a link. I'll be sure to check her/him out.
