My first voyage of this summer has come to an end. I went with my parents and four obnoxious sisters to Groffliers a sleepy village in Pas-de-Calais, of the northern regions of france.
the holiday began very good as i got the message from jeroen (thanks buddy) I passed the exams. We visited the old cities of Boonen and Kales (nowadays known as Boulogne and Calais) and went to the beach.
The best thing about the domain was the swimming pool with jacuzzi. Allthough I cannot swim, i went to the pool every day. We drank a lot of wine (he wasn't that good, but still better than nothing).
The french are a sleepy lot though, things that should open at some hour were closed until another hour passed.
Onanother note: tom Boonen won a stage in the tour de france today, houzee!

post exam stress (or no stress :))
exams are finished, I suffer from a severe case of sunburn, my legs are killing me and I'm drinking champagne, just like Freddy Maertens.
In the mean time, my version of NWN (neverwinter nights, the greatest game ever) is installed once again and searching for updates.
today, i went to katrien (i guess you'll be hearing a lot from her in the future), my thesis counsellor. She outlined the whole project, highlighted the important issues and burried me in information :) (She seems nice though). I'll be working a whole year at "slot waveguides for biosensing applications".
On a totally different note, in a week the tour de france starts. I fear the race'll be in the shadow of the drugs. New revelations are menacing some of the topplayers: Petacchi, Valverde, Vinokourov... on top of that, the csc team refuses to signe the charter from the UCI, thus excluding them from participating in the tour?
I just hope Boonen wins the stage in Ghent and gets the green jersey at paris. and of course also that the winner of the yellow jersey (I put my money on Schleck) don't get caught afterwards.
