Hi all,

The doctor has ordered me to spend less time on Cruise Talk, just joking!

In December I will have my final examinations of industrial design school and I will have to present my graduation project. Until then I will be busy working on my project, so I’m just letting you all know there might be times I’m not much around on the forums or only in the weekends. (So don’t worry I won’t be on a “around the world” cruise!)

Best, Onno

Hi Onno, when I first joined cruidetalk I was doing some studying too. Cruisetalk was a major distraction, but also provide a welcome break, on occasions.

My advice would certainly be to limit your cruisetalking and focus on your studies. We will all still be here when you return.

Good luck!

Best of luck Onno in your upcoming exams.

I doubt very much that you will come out with anything less than an "A PLUS".

Take the Doctor's advice! A little break to recharge your batteries once in a while can only be helpful.

Best wishes for your studies Onno - and - if the doctor still orders less CT - get a second opinion

Hi all,

I thought I let you know my final presentations are over and I graduated for my bachelor degree at the Design Academy Eindhoven.

It were a couple of stressful days but it’s over now. The doctor cured me and I can start talking cruise again.

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S !

You deserve this graduation as I'm sure you worked a lot for that.

Now, when will we see Carnival Corp. calling for your talents?
Who knows?... perhaps in about ten years...

Many congratulations on your sucess Onno. I've been following your work and posts both here and on the Debris Field forum for the better part of a year, and being an Industrial Design graduate myself, I've been impressed.

Best of luck with your burgeoning career! Now go take a cruise!
