Ok...my exam is over...a few more to go and it's all good. This one went pretty decently...some proofs and other stuff...nothing funny. My web page idea was kinda shot down but it's still being developed...just with different people. It's snowing outside...it's really really great. I was feeling kinda stupid so I went and lay in the snow for a while...baaad idea...made me feel stupider but I got a great idea for my web page design. Funny how things like that work out.
I've got Chemistry on Monday and all I have to do is work on all the problems before Saturday night...Sunday as the review day and I'm set...badaboom. Well that's the plan at least. Tonight I'm going home early so I can play some ATARI...ATARI RULEZ...well in part, because I can program for it. Nothing else is going through my head right now except my sleep. I've been sleeping too much lately...good and bad...can't wait to get my new computer...no sleep at all then...up till the early hours programming...booyah.

I've got one day till my first exam. I think I'm pretty prepaired for it so I took a little break. The new site idea is coming along really well...I just have to get permission to make it from two to four people. I also managed to get my account size to under 3 Mb because that's all I'll have in a few days...I'm still try to track down a one meg file I have sitting around somewhere. In about 2.2 weeks I will start the redesign of the website. The only thing situated here will be some html files that I update often and html pointer files to my new place on the web: pouchie.cx/members/006.5
In other news: Kyle (Pouchie) came up with his word of the hour idea and implemented it: http://pouchie.cx/members/pouchie/woth.cgi; I should warn you that this link will lead to some rather nasty words at certain times of the day (about 50% of the time). So if you are easily offended then don't follow it...but if you want to know what a perverted mind like his can create then go go go...

It's been a while...but exams are starting soon. Luckily I have my exams spaced out with about 4 days between each. I've also just discussed an amazing web page idea with Rob Bruce (a good friend of mine). Kyle (Pouchie) and I are thinking about setting up a postcard page at http://pouchie.cx and it seems that things will work out because i'll be buying a Digital Camera soon.
In other news type things...it's been one whole week since the Canadian election. Since I am Canadian I did attempt to vote in this one. The trouble is that I was really lazy and it was my mother who forced me to vote. In Canada we used to have a party called the Reform party. It was very popular in the Prarie provinces of Canada. Yet the party members weren't that happy so they decided to go and for the Canadian Alliance which was supposed to be a big Alliance of several parties...this got a lot of people scared. Why? well...in most peoples eyes the Canadian Alliance is racist, anti minority, and anti everything except the majority. The problem is that a significant portion of Canada is Minority. What does this mean? Well since I happen to East Indian (check the pictures page) it could be not good for me...so my mom dragged me out of bed in the morning and asked me to vote. Being a good guy that I am, I voted for the people who could really stop these people: The Liberals. They've been in power for a long time and they've done a good job. I'm not saying that they know everything, credit to all the other parties (except Alliance) for their good ideas, but we needed to vote for people who would stop the the alliance. In this election I couldn't afford to vote for people who wouldn't win outright.
To those who don't know how the Canadian system this is how it works. People in each riding (district/county/area of certain number of people) elects a Member of Parliment to represent that region. The MP can belong to a political party (in most cases he/she does). The party that wins the most seats across Canada then forms the Cabinet of Ministers and controls the House. The House of Commons currently contains 300 (or 301, can't remember) seats. Since every member gets to vote on a bill and party solidarity is a big thing, it is very important to get a majority (151 or more seats) so that laws your party wants to make get through...
The Liberals were very lucky in this election in that they got waaaay more seats than last time, about 15 more. This is good because it means that the country trust the government big time. Good for me, I guess since the Alliance didn't get in.
That's all in news for me for a little while...

Ok....I'm really angry about certain things....we have a policy in our labs that people should not eat and drink in here...a MFCF person came by just a few minutes and told us that he'd be back in 5 minutes and those that still had food and drink would have their accounts deleted. I'm good with that...I mean yesterday people totally messed up the labs and so MFCF has a right to get pissed at those people. What's really bugging me is that people who had other peoples garbage sitting beside them got their account deleted. That's not fair...it's not our job to clean up after other people. That's one point.
Another point is that just before the MFCF person came back a person in front of me who was eating food in the lab got up and left....the MFCF person came around suspended some accounts...and left. This is the part that's pissing me off: After he left....the person who was eating in front off me came back into the lab and started eating...WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH HER? She's making it so that other people are getting accounts suspended because off her. This is not a trivial matter as these accounts are our lifeline...we submit assignments using them...we find out what's going on...we need these accounts to LIVE (literrally). So that's why I'm pretty angry today....more at the person sitting in front off me than at anybody else.

So I finally decided to post something here....hmm...I've decided to start being evil again soon. Also I've been doing a lot of SL development. Oh yeah...if you're with an sort of organisation that needs a hacker/cracker type or the international assasin type then please email me poste haste...he he he. Final exams are almost here so I'll be unavailable to work on the site for a few days. Then Christmas break will be here...I'm thinking of redesigning my site...just not sure...lot of things are up in the air.
At this points I'd like to thank Liam and Catherine for providing me with weeks of entertainment with their "Monkey" business.
