UPRISING

Hey all,

I'll try and post all the pics that I take whilst roadtrippin on this site from time to time. Since I got a bit of spare time right now, I've done work which I'll probably wanna do later on. All the pics have links to the bigger ones, though the quality is poor. However, not to worry I've got all the nice ones on CD, if you ever want any images for a bit of a closer viddy with the old oog-balls, just e-mail me and I'll send it to ya. When ya point the mouse button over thema, hopefully I'll have a little description to fill you in. Drop me a line whenever , [email protected],

OneLove,
Ahil

SHOULD'VE BEEN STUDYING

HOUSE PARTY - ahil's first role of host

PRE-PARTY SHOOT

DEPARTURE
Abbey, Ahil, Alex, Slav and Brenton at the airport.A few 'boohoo's' and 'sobs' being shared with me old lady n brother.The Brenton Pose, by all except Brenton.

AMSTERDAM
A street, which I'd say typifies Amsterdam. A crappy Dutch football court, it pales in comparison to my beloved 'Wijk Arena' aka 'The Cage'. One of me Uni buildings. 'Daa, stay outta da River Dam!', the history, you can smell it!
Some graffiti on a wall at my uni. A bit closer. The dam that separates my suburb (Centrum) with Oost.
Sarphatistraat, my block chilled with the remains of a snowy night
My block again.

THE SNOW
Down came the snow, a couple weeks into my stay, my first real snow experience, beautiful.El Ahilo strikes again. Pretty standard, now, but amazing at first, my first straat (street) in Amsterdam, Valckenierstraat, with a warm blancket of snow.My first apartment, with snow!  Yes, I too am getting bored with the snow.

PEEPS
My first room-mates (except Celine), Pablo the Columbian, me the... (well no one's quite sure yet) and Dani the Spaniard. Celine, the French(wo)man. Some kids we played soccer with at the Cage, and Mark. Kids, again.
Pierre and Isis, one of the Frenchies from my building

MISCELLANEOUS
My first home away from home. Oh, how cheap beer is in the Netherlands. Even that stuff we call 'fine' and 'imported' in Oz. Soldier on Volleys!  My good ol' Dunlop Volleys, in the wars at the cage.
I was quite amused by the tricks of the mirror. Raul in his room.
My little garden of herbs, for cooking that is.

ROTTERDAM
The Rotterdam Film Festival banner.
The main building for the film festival. Inside the cinemas. These freaky Dutch bastards are at it again, these weird crane lookin' things actually have lights attatched to the end.  You can control where the lights move by a computer at the bottom of 'em.
Behold, the city of Rotterdam, in all its glory!  Well actually its kinda boring compared to Amsterdam besides the odd crazy architecture. The porch of a cube house, I couldnt actually get any good images from the outside, but these houses consist of huge cubes suspended on a corner. Celine, at the cube house desk. Your humble narrator, on the bed, what followed?  Its like the answer to the square-root of 1 million, no one will ever know.
Celine, at the steps of the cube house. Li'l Ahil, at the kitchen table. The cube house desk, what could be more exciting? How cool is this place? The sofa.
Centraal station at the nice hour of 1am, yeah they spell it with 2 'a's, can you believe it? Celine at the Rotterdam Metro, those glass spikes are for passengers who dont pay the fare, or so I'd imagine.
The programma and my 'TICKETS'.
30/01/04 - I treked to Rotterdam for the Film Festival. It turned out to be quite a good afternoon-turn-night out. We saw the crazy Dutch architecture of Rotterdam, namely the Cube Houses, in between some films. The first, Uniform, was a Chinese movie and no offence to the Trans out there but it kinda sucked. However, it was more than made up for by a bunch of short films which were quite the pictures to viddy.

MY CRIB
Home, sweet, home. This desk keeps away tigers, how do ya figure? - It doesnt, its just a stupid desk.  But I dont see any tigers around. - Ahil, I'd like to buy your desk. The first pick of what I hope will one day be a huge collage, preferrably whilst I'm still living there. Pierre's side, yeah I know, your like, 'its better than yours'
Behold, the kitchen, in all its glory!  Pierre, tell them what you got when I asked you to go out and get a microwave. - Curse you magic beans!

VOETBAL

JOSH'S GOIN AWAY DINNER
