So yeah...

Well, here we are.
Here, being a completely new blog you were somehow unfortunate enough to have stumbled upon. And worse, it's about things you might not even care about! Heavens!

Now what?
Well, I'd reckon you'd like to weigh out whether it will be all worth it. So why not edge a little closer to the lava pool, and read on for a bit.

To start things off positively, I'm by no means a 'good' writer. (That's not why I started this blog, anyway.) At least, I tend not to try and judge myself on this. Adding to that the fact that I'm Dutch, and English is nowhere near my first language, it should all make for a nice word-jumble. Due to this, you may or may not (keeping things indefinite, just to be sure) be in shock and awe from my write-em-ups. Therefore, I wish you all the best in conquering the abominations of my grammar and spelling. Or, you know, at finding the 'close page' button.

No? Still here? Great! Then let me introduce you to me some more.

I'm a second year's student at the faculty of Industrial Design Engineering at the Technical University in Delft, the Netherlands, so snippets of thoughts about design or design flaws and pet peeves I'm finding in my environment are quite common. If you've got the metaphorical balls to decide you'll return, you'd better prepare for some heavy venting, rants and endless trains of thought.

Not only do these trains carry design thoughts but the more common, yet mostly weirdly complicated, general thoughts. General? Yes general! This meaning that occasionally you'll get a flash of some genius philosophical titbits (not really), after which I'll probably stumble back into the room wondering who touched my blog.

Making this blog's scope even wider, I'll be throwing a bunch of stories at you on games and gaming culture in general. I've got an extensive backlog of nearly 40 games, and actually little time to game. This aside though, my thoughts do often wander off to my Hyrule or Capital Wasteland endeavours. I'm keen on playing Nintendo games, but also ripping on the interface and weird design choices that float by every now and again. So grab some nerd glasses and join me for a Potion, will you?

So far my rambles about me being me. The major points of interest summed up, I think you get the general idea. So, time to make your choice.
Either run screaming, or hold out your hands, and I'll chip in two cents. I hope they'll keep you entertained.

PS: Please excuse me for using this horrible 'You don't want to be here!' format. It's quite the cliché, and even more lacking in taste, actually...
