Tempus Tommy

A Dane living in The Netherlands

Wednesday, October 23, 2002  
It's now been a month and a half since I started my thesis with the work title: "Social Interactions/Playertypes in EverQuest". I couldn't get anything done in Copenhagen, so now I'm here in Leeuwarden at my boyfriends place, trying to get something done :-)
My plan for this blog is to divide it in two - one for professional purposes, and one for private purposes. I do experience a lot up here in the northern part of the Netherlands, and I would hate myself for forgetting these first steps in trying to accomodate in a new culture (though not that different from Denmark), so this is where I am...new to thesis writing, new to dutch living, and new to blogging.

My future post will be like this: My thesis entries will appear like this (#005500), my personal entries will appear in this color(#660000), and things from EQ in this color(#CC9900).
