I talked to ITS on
I talked to ITS on the telephone this afternoon. They didn’t even get around to looking at my computer until earlier today and they discovered that i was going to need a new harddrive. Wow, they have some real geniuses working over there. I told them last friday that i had bad sector error’s and was going to need a new harddrive. They could have ordered me a new one then, but they didn’t. Now, i’m going to have to wait until at least friday to get it back, a slim possibility of getting it tomorrow or after the weekend.
Bah, i can’t go check out the sites i goto everyday, or waste my many hours on the machine. I have been getting a lot of reading done, although it is hard to type of notes without a computer. Yes, i’ve been typing notes. It’s kind of like re-writing them, but i can type a lot faster than i write, so it’s more productive.
My computer is with its
My computer is with its right now. I had a bunch of bad sector error’s, must have just been a bad drive. I’m without computer tonite, so i’ll probably do a good chunk of reading. I can’t type up any notes, that’s the one bad thing about not having a computer sitting in front of me.
Haven’t been writing as much
Haven’t been writing as much lately, had a busy weekend, although i didn’t get the much work finished. I have a computer assingment due tonite at midnight, should be fun getting it finished. It’s one of those things that doesn’t appear to be too hard, but it keeps presenting you with new problems when you think you have it figured out. One more class to go today; psychology.
It’s homecoming weekend here. I
It’s homecoming weekend here. I went to the football game this afternoon, got to see a lot of old alumni parade around the field. There was a thunderstorm here and we had the power knocked out for a couple hours in our residence. We still had a lot of people left on the floor. We ended up having a lot of fun. I have a bunch of work to get caught up on tomorrow.

Hmm, didn’t get around to writing anythng yesterday. Didn’t really get a whole lot of work done yesterday. I only have one class today so I’ll probably spend a good chunk of the day working. It’s homecoming here at queen’s, apparently there’s going to be a lot of people around. Lots of partying too.
Some of the highlights from
Some of the highlights from my day at school. Well professors proving that they are in fact falible human beings. Well, there’s calculus and us using real world data that was in fact made up; our prof described it to us as a pretend real world. Then there’s economics, dealing with property rights and government regulation, protecting shamen and schmooze populations. Err, salmon and moose rather, that’s just his accent though. There was psychology too, talking about how they perform intelligence tests and academics generally prefering iq tests, rather than something like gauging a machinist’s skill or something (different type of intelligence). The exact wording? We like using them because we do good on these intelligence tests.
