Snow
It snowed last night, as a result my apartment is super bright with reflected ambient light. I really like it, especially since it’s getting darker these days.

It’s a sickness, I am shamed.
I feel I should be working harder now
I just got approved from a program element (meaning minor) at four minutes past midnight. I’m not sure who is working at the university at four after midnight but they just approved a bunch of my academic requests. Yay me!
(sadly my enviro ethics class was not one of them)

I agree with a lot of these points, mostly about ink smear. Honestly since swapping to note taking on the MBP my notes are a million times better.
Panic sets in
You know that feeling when it’s a month to exams and you realize that you have to cram an entire semesters worth of knowledge into your head, I’m there right now. For some of my courses this doesn’t seem like to hard a task to accomplish for others I don’t see how it could remotely be possible.
Yeah
Gonna start looking for a new apartment. The ceiling sprung a leak again. I sorta getting settled into this place and I probably can’t afford nicer in the same area but I’m gonna keep my eyes open for sure.

My apartment isn’t exactly spotless as of late. Midterms have made me delay cleaning in favour of studying. I left my apartment earlier this evening because the guys were making way to much ruckus. I returned to find the floor just filthy. They were draining a water boiler and heating system and I guess they were using my bathroom to dump excess water out. I say this because it’s...

“After calculating that I wasted 6500 hours in church the first 25 years of my life, I vowed to spend 6500 hours doing volunteer work that would actually make a difference in the world.”
TESTIFY, MY BROTHER!
I have two guys working in my apartment right now. Three if you count my landlord. While I appreciated that they’re fixing up the heating system for the coming winter, I’m slightly annoyed that they entered my apartment without notice. My landlord is a nice guy but by absenteeism is a bit of a slum lord. I’ve complained about insects and rodents as well as my ceiling and walls...

the network
I’m shaing my network with my upstairs neighbour. It’s sort of a repository for all the programs we want to share. He recently finished up some schooling he was doing and with the extra free time plans to relax and enjoy himself. In a passing conversation I mentioned that I had some movies kicking aroud on my hard drive that I would place in the shared folder for him to watch. Now that...
Kittens
Will not help you with your term paper. Regardless of their cute mewings to the contrary.
They are not cold, even though it’s a brisk fall day. It’s called fur and they come with it as a standard option
Yes, they’re unbelievably cute when they’re chasing their tails outside. When they start doing it on top of your keyboard bad things will happen.
They will attack the...

Vote America off that planet if they vote in McCain? If he gets in because he comes out with some brilliant idea on the economy and world peace, ok. If he gets in because his legion of supporters, people supporting him because they don’t want a black-arab-terrorist-muslim as President vote him in, I want to be able to annex them from the planet.
In the end maybe the 9/11 attacks and all the...

As my friend was trying to explain to the 911 operator that we needed an ambulance at a biking trail named “Who’s your daddy,” I realized that I would be laying on the ground for a long time before being rescued.

Here's the call
All right, day before the election now so I better finish this up of it’ll just be weird. So now that you know all the players let’s get started.
Harper, really wanted to get a majority in this election so that he wouldn’t have to depend on making alliances with other parties to pass bills. I don’t know why he wants this because he’s been running the country like he has a majority and anything...
Oh by the way.
In case you haven’t noticed, and I really can’t blame you for not, up here in Canada we’re in the midst of a federal election. In a few days, the 14th of October to be precise, Canadians will be deciding on who will be running the country for the next little while. Watching the election from a somewhat aloof vantage point of come to a few conclusions but first let’s get some housekeeping out of...

You’re charging me for the bandwidth now, there’s no need for you to be traffic shaping. That’s just being down right mean spirited. I know you network can’t handle the traffic, at least if you want to keep claiming that you’re the fastest around, but surely at the rate you’re charging me for the extra bandwidth you’ll be able to upgrade your equipment.
