Intarweb

This past 10 days without internet were very... difficult. I now have internet back, on a 4.7 mbps line [grin]

The fastest down speed I've had so far was 1.4 MB/s, I haven't tested the upstream much yet

oops
Ok so maybe I was a bit mistaken on my workload.
They don't really teach much in class, but it's more like an outline of what we're expected to know, and I end up having to study 20-30 pages and do a lot of practice questions after each lecture.
No wonder they only give us 6 hours of lecture a week, …

grad update
Yays, I have my office and my university phone line and everything [grin]

Bell will connect my home phone tomorrow evening, but the fucking nazis told me there's no sympatico service available at my apartment ><
Need to call the extremely incompetent and shitty Cogeco cable people. If you've ne…

whee
I've settled in in my new place and took my courses and everything.

This is a rather nice place. I'll take some photos and post them later on.

Only problem so far is that internet access is insanely slow. I feel like I'm using a 9600 baud modem.
I'm going to get my access card and cubicle in an hour o…

Oh shit...
I have an amazing story to share..

So I'm cleaning up my stuff (since I'm moving out and all) and manage to tackle a pile of paper and documents on the top shelf of my desk, where I haven't touched for a couple of years.

Have in mind that I mentioned that I haven't touched this pile for a couple of y…

I wanted to draw something, but I couldn't be arsed to do it.
I might draw it later, who knows.

So it turns out that last week, AIM decided to just drop TOC1 protocol altogether, which makes my client not connect anymore.
I'm running on a hacked together version of Oscar TOC2 right now, though I don't…

blah
I.... haven't updated for so long.
Mostly because I have nothing to say.

For those of you still waiting for ministry story part 2, don't wait. I was writing it a couple of weeks ago, then I realised that it's not interesting at all, and I had forgotten a lot of the details anyway.
So part 1 was much b…

Don't you wish you could stick your penis in that search box?

That search box looks pretty tight

Freedom
So today was my last day at my current job. I'm gonna be totally free from now on :)

It's kind of hard to leave a place you have been working at for 2.5 years. The hardest part was cleaning up my room, trashing all the extra papers, and collecting my stuff to take with me.
And then of course, deletin…

Colourful
Hey look I can have colourful gradients in my journal, too!

So I was bored, and I wanted to make a gradient thing, so I made a little tool for it:
Colour gradient generator

Took me about an hour to make. It's all in &#106avascript and should work on all the major browsers. Have fun.

I would like to like my journal title
I noticed that I'm in an infinite loop.
So I had a journal title, and I didn't like it, so I set the title to "I didn't like my previous journal title."
Then I realise that that's a very stupid title, and I don't like it, so I end up saying "I didn't like my previous journal title."
And then, well, I …

Vaggies
I don't have much to say, except that ask a question from the vegetarians:
How on earth do you guys stay alive??

I had some veggie burger today, and God that was terrible. How can you guys put up with not eating proper meat?

Also: I can't sleep, again.

More delay
The second part of the story will be delayed for a bit cause I'm not going to be home for now.

But I had to post this because it's 31st of the month and with this, I will now have a full stretch of dots in the calendar for the month of July.
I won't be posting every single day after this. I promise. …

The ministry story pt 1
Ok, so I finally decided to type up the entire story. I'm just trying not to miss any details.

I'll start the story from wednesday night. I was working late again, getting everything set up and doing some finish up touches. So after midnight I finally decided that I should go home before the subway …

Almost done
So.. all these hundreds of hours of work are finally coming to an end.

Tomorrow I have to go to Ministry of Education for the meeting where they will discuss the deal and stuff (I stay clear of that part and leave it to the sales people) and then have a tech review where they ask all kinds of weird …

I hate putting titles for entries
I'm not going to work today. Calling in sick. Nevertheless, I have to terminal from home and do some work.
Blah.

On a gaming note, have you guys played this game called "Artificial Girl 2?"
It's the... weirdest game I've ever played. I like the part with customizing the girl exactly the way you like, …

Wish I could do this to my spammers

Which reminds me, I used to not have much spam, then the day after I broke up with my ex-gf, I recieved subscription from around 60 different weird mailing lists, including a lot of gay hook-up mailing list, animal sex mailing lists, and some even more obscure lis…

The race
Last night I finally entered at the bottom of the list of 25 hottest topics. I might have been knocked down by now, though.

I have the new iPod photo, it's simply amazing. Very nice graphics for a device of this size. Though, it has already crashed on me once, which was pretty much my own fault anyw…
