At my parents now, we'll have dinner soon. It's really cosy here, and "the tourists" had a nice day today they told me.

I'm very happy my paper is ready and delivered (went to the VU to deliver a physical copy). I can focus on my internship now.

At 15:00 o'clock I want to sent my paper to the teacher. Now working on the introduction -- Phillip pointed out that this the purpose of my paper wasn't very clear so I'm added some stuff on this.

Found a website on round-trip java programming, www.objectsbydesign.com, nice guys there; they let me use a screenshot from their website.

Found out something really scary: The backups I have been making the last week of my paper are all just links to my original paper. Meaning: if my original paper would have disappeared, so would have all my backups... You really can't trust Word, even when you're as paranoid as I am in making backup copies every few hours.

Every morning it gets a little bit easier to go to work, don't feel completely broken anymore in the morning :) Today the finishing touch on my paper, then I'll deliver it at the VU. Today Jonathan, Irena & Ilana will visit my parents -- the usual things: the Afsluitdijk, the hole in the dike, the sluizen.

Done for today with my paper, both Sasha and Petra reviewed it. Thanks a lot, you've both been a huge help! Other people always find so many mistakes that you can't see yourself... They both indepently of each other remarked how boring my paper is. I agree, but at least it's solid :) Anyway, wanna try for yourself? See here.

It's over... I finally knew what day the Royles are broadcasted (Tuesday), and then I read at Bieslog that yesterday's episode was the last one. It is really one of the best comedy's I know -- especially Jim (the father, see picture) was my favourite.
