I will actually have to do something to keep myself on track to make this new year’s resolution. I still didn’t finish the book Reality Check by Guy Kawasaki. This book is good and when a book is really good it takes time to read it well. It’s a near 500 pages book and I am exactly on page 250 right now.

Reality Check quotes and talks a lot about other books. The book iWoz by Steve Wozniak one of the founders of Apple is one of them. This is the next book on my list I plan on reading. I just hope I can find it here in Puchong. After iWoz I will hold of on the Apple related books for a while… I might start reading some thrillers or mafioso books since reading next to being informative and fun should also fuel your imagination and business books for a big part take away a large part of that imagination.

Two days ago I released the first version of Inscorta and I plan to work on this a lot during Chinese New Year. Another New Year? Time for another New Year’s Resolution! Any suggestions for a good New Year’s resolution?  Also my birthday is coming up(It’s already tomorrow) and this again is a New Year. Damn those New Year’s resolutions. Who was the idiot(I am just kidding) that had this great idea to put three New Year’s in such a short time span?

I have better things to do then to worry about New Year’s resolutions all day. I am busy with work and I cancelled my trips for this New Year’s Holiday to work on Inscorta, Launch poetsplaza.nl and write a report(which I almost forgot about) for my school.

This includes watching episodes of “De Lama’s” but also a lot of other sketches. This particular sketch just made me laugh out loud.

That there is not a lot of activity, is not entirely true. On November 27 I’ll go to Bali for the weekend and meet up with Erotic Eric, Awesome Alfred and Sexy Sammy. This is something I’m really looking forward to.

Next month in Singapore is Siggraph Asia which I plan on visiting. But for now I’ll just keep playing computer games. Currently I am playing Red Alert 3 which I bought two weeks ago. It was the first game I bought this year and my expectations were high! My disappointment was also that… Why do they keep reinventing themselfs when they had it exactly right, the first time.

Today I present my site relaunch. I was for a long time developing my own site but I decided to switch, using WordPress instead. The newer versions of WordPress have just lots of features and it is almost impossible to create something with a feature set that rich and still have some spare time for playing games :P For a while now I am doing my internship in Malaysia. It is really great.

I will tell you just in short how my day looks like. I get up a bit after 9am. I take a swim in the condominium swimming pool. After that I take a shower and walk to work. I take my breakfast at a Indian restaurant which basically consist of eating roti canai or capati. When I arrive at work at 11am, I sit down and start making computer games:D I am currently working on a multi player game in a mmo world. This is lots of fun and learning so incredible much. Around 2 pm we will get lunch which basically means eating at a Chinese restaurant eating char sieuw wonton noodles, chicken rice or some other funny looking dish I didn’t dare to ask what it is. We get back to work and work until around 9pm. After that we have dinner at a restaurant again :-) Mostly eating unidentifiable things or loads of satay. We get back around 10-11 pm to our house and we start playing computer games, mostly Dota!

So I am having lots of fun and getting really fat in the process only slowed down by my daily swim which I often not make because I am to lazy. I gained some weight already :D But then there is still plenty of time to loose some of that in the weekend, right? Wrong! I meet up with friends mostly. We will go to the cinema’s and spend our days in a freezing cold super mall somewhere in Kuala Lumpur.

Ok, some other info you might want to skip. I included links to blogs and sites in the link menu I often visit. Some things might be interesting for you. I will put my photos on Flickr from now on. This because it is a great service with many features and dirt cheap. If there are any improvements you might want to see then I suggest email me about that. There is a lot of crap writing out that and I am pretty sure this blog is also one of them but it is fun doing and if I don’t update people will, somehow complain!

I imported some data from my previous blog but the comments were somehow lost :( So please leave a comment to fill my blog.

Cheers,

Jeroen
