I’m sorry this went up so late, but if you follow me on twitter, you know what’s been going on. Anyhow I’m doing a photoshoot tomorrow from 3pm ’till 6pm at SOMIC, a new skatepark here in Belgium, so if you aren’t camera shy, come and have your picture taken! Check the official flyer after the jump.

We grew up with the 8-bit tunes blieping and blopping around our ears. When years later my brother, the one who’s now actually learning how to develop computer games in college, discovered Sabrepulse and his chiptune music we, my brothers and I, all became a fan. And about a month ago he came to Belgium, more precisely to a very small local bar only a few kilometres from where I grew up. No way we were going to miss that!

I don’t now why you would like to do this. Trains are boring. The seats aren’t that bad in most of them, but not really comfy either. There is always either someone yelling in his phone, playing loud music through the crappy speakers of his cellphone or laughing way too loud or a kid screaming his lungs out. You have to hop from one into another because they never seem to go directly where you want to go. And if they run late, like they do most of the time, chance are you are going to miss that connection as well wasting even more time than usual. If you don’t have a car though, here in Belgium they are the only way to travel fairly cheap over large distances. So if you’re like me you’ll end up in one at least once a week. While it’s obvious I found out this method by accident, and there are a million other ways, I’d like to share it with you.

Student Kick-Off on Sint-Pieters square here in Ghent is another big event that is held to, just like the name suggests, kick off the new academic year. This free event got put together by the universities, colleges, the city of Ghent and the students themselves. They got a nice all Belgian line up together and the event was well organised. We had a great time at the concerts and ended up in the Overpoort afterwards to party some more.

At the start of the new academic year there is a lot happening here in Ghent. Ghent is one of Belgium’s major cities to get higher education so while the summer is relatively quiet, at the end of September the madness returns. I was off work because my injured shoulder and since partying doesn’t require more than one arm, out we went.
