A solid way to waste

A solid way to waste an afternoon is to begin playing Worms World Party. We set it up on two of the computers in the house, two guys in each room blowing each other up and yelling back and forth. Andrew and Shawn both have a politics exam tomorrow, my first exam isn’t until wednesday.

We were also playing worms during the wee hours of the morning and noticed the snow beginning to fall. It’s probably only the second time that it’s snowed for us this year, although it’s the first time that the snow has stayed on the ground. A good chunk of it melted today, anything that was in direct sunlight. Sometimes I enjoy snow, right now I could do without the cold weather.

I went out to the

I went out to the theatre with my housemates the other night and saw Ocean’s Eleven. It wasn’t really that great, although I don’t think the original was to begin with. It’s basically a combination of every other heist movie that you’ve seen in the last number of years. As far as Soderbergh goes, the movie was basically a combination of Traffic and Out of Sight (both of which were better movies).

Mmm, donairs are so good.

Mmm, donairs are so good. It’s also probably the closest place near my house that you can get take out food from at all hours. So good and meaty with the unfortunate side-effect of indigestion. Although that may be attributed to overall crappy eating during exam time.

It’s the middle of exam

It’s the middle of exam season; no better time to redo everything. In an attempt to jump start my interest again, I’m reorganizing everything and giving it a fresh new look. Hopefully the organization will be more condusive to new content creation.

I don’t really know why I haven’t been updating. I could say that I’m too busy but that’s most likely complete bullshit. I spent a decent chunk of any given day poking around on the internet and finding interesting things, I just haven’t been writing any of it down. Well, the holiday season approaches and I only have three exams this time around, so I should be able to get it all going again.

The other sections will arrive as I complete them, I figured that I may as well get this one up first.

It’s really quite funny when

It’s really quite funny when you realize the absurdity of sitting around at three in the morning translating a program from one computer language into another computer language while drinking a glass of wine. Lest I forget to mention, there’s the fact that I put off the assignment all day. Whee.

Lots of pathetic little entries

Lots of pathetic little entries the last couple days. I read the great gatsby yesterday afternoon for my english class. I enjoyed reading it, more so than some of the other ones that I’ve had to read for class. The last paragraph is great:

Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter – tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms further… And one fine morning – So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

A month from now, I

A month from now, I should be finished my last exam. At the same time, the first installment of Lord of the Rings will be hitting the theatres, I’m looking forward to it.
