I am unemployed and loving it 
. I haven't played WoW since before Christmas, but I have dusted off my old dream cast. I don't care what you say; Sonic Adventure (and doubly so Sonic Adventure 2) are awesome games. I especially like that I can play through them and break down the scene in my head into polygons and techniques.

For anyone curiuos, my prof mailed me back on christmas day (yay for quick solutions) and stated that in fact there was an error. Apparantly, B's and F's are easy to confuse. I decided to forgive him since I won't need to do anything to straighten it out .

phew! that would have sucked,
and of course you're welcome to come to buffyfest! We'll make extra cramped room for you.

Finals are done! That means, boys and girls, that I am now a graduate. Isn't that keen?
I'd like to say I'm laying back and basking in the glory, but this victory came with a bit of angst, however. As I said to many people "I need one course to graduate but I'm taking four. If I fail, I deserve an award." Now, I know...

your new picture makes your head look strangely small compared to your body.
also, you should definitely challenge that. I got a B+ in the one course I've gotten a mark back for and I was expecting an A, so I went in to look at my exam and sure enough, the prof marked it wrong. so I get to argue. hurray.

Hmm. as with all others, this is a token update, really. One of those odd times when I'm very busy but not actually with anything worth mentioning.
I had a concert on saturday: it was fun... the first with the concert band I'm playing trumpet with after 5 years off

Last bell concert was on monday. There was a pretty major screw up, but...

ah, but you can snowboard and i cannot.
Emo.
You have no idea how close you were to getting some really shitty emo poetry... fortunately writing it cheered me up enough that it stopped seeming like a good idea.
I had a great friday/saturday. It was nice to finally unwind... which I did quite effectively. it wa a pity sunday had to come along and all the assignments I have to do with...

You have time, young jedi...You have time.
I hope we will be seeing you at the new years fling?
BTW, your profile answer for 'favourite sexual position' is the best I have ever seen.

ja, i've been pretty emo lately, the lovly rue_ has been keeping me happy.
It's an emo day in an emo world. Graph Theory has moved from interesting but lightweight math course to mind-raping beast as of the most recent assignment. Likewise Media and Society, my favorite course this semester, is scaring the shit out of me with a midterm next week. Guess who really doesn't know how to effectively do Humanities readings? That'd be this guy here.

Sadly my camera is broken right now. I'll get pictures some day.
As for my sanity... well... it's always been a highly debated issue.

thanks man...i'm trying so hard for myself and Aoede to make things work that it gets hard sometimes to remember to enjoy what we have. there's so much left for us to do that it just gets daunting when i try to think about it, you know?
Yesterday was misguided's birthday party, which was fabulous. I wasn't sure; it was rather late before I got there, but I was in time for cake . Tetris was played, good conversation was had...
I find it ironic that, just prior to going to the party I placed a rather cynical post into another journal of mine. Clearly, a good party night like last...

I just read a most disturbing piece of news. I would contribute it to the news thread but I don't know if it has been mentioned yet.
As a student in computer science, this is the sort of thing I fear and hate. It goes against everything truly intelligent programmers believe in.

I find it difficult to belive that this patent would stand in court.
The only distinguishing feature of 'their' concept is simply hierarchy.
If there is ANYTHING in human society that is public domain, it is the concept of organizing data into a hierarchy.
Every repository of data in the world is organized this way, from the Yellow Pages to my collection of porn downloads.
This kind of thing has happened before, and someone will simply challenge it. I suspect it constitutes some sort of negotiating strategy between apple and creative, more than anything else.

WTF! That's shit. They patented this?! Fucking hell...that's out of control.
If this shit is passed...what does that say about the proposal of patenting cursors...scrollbars...and :o typing?!

I am unhappy.
Among many of my computer friends Ubuntu has been getting a lot of praise. I wasn't that impressed when it wouldn't install on my laptop, but because I'm so forgiving I tried installing it on my desktop.
Big mistake, apparantly. I guess you can only write a boot sector so many times or something, because I can no longer run Windows off...

Ubuntu is voodoo. Sure, it's built of Debian...but you know what? The trouble it's given me, makes it uncomparable to Debian. 
Wow. I signed on today to find out that my friend from Australia has signed on here. Isn't that fabulous? I love it when friends I haven't talked to in a while show up.
Speaking of which, I finally met the fabulous Oryx which was an unexpected surprise, as well as the fabulous aya and... some fellows who may or may not have been on...
