I've been fairly busy as of late. I have assignments, a paper, and midterms all over the place. My week goes as follows. Tuesday I have a computer science midterm, wednesday I have a stats assignments, thursday I have a math assignment, and friday I have an english major paper. Now this might seem like plenty of time to finish all that but throw in work on wednesday, thursday, and friday! That leaves me with time on Tuesday night to finish stats, math, and my paper. It looks like I might have to do some school work at some unusual hours. Such as before school, and at night. For me I have never done school work before I went to school so that might be a shocker for me. Well then, next week I have nothing due but supposidly I am going to be working 30 hours! If only I had more hours in a day.

Today at school I wrote my Math midterm. It went alright I think. I shouldn't get much of anything wrong. There was one question that I think was a little sketchy. The only thing that I don't really like about the test was that it was out of 40. So if I get 2 questions wrong thats like 8 out of 40 or like 20percent! But I should do fine. . I still have to do my English major paper thats due next wednesday. This should be a very hard thing for me to do since you have to do some research and I haven't researched anything yet. On Tuesday next week I have a Computer Science midterm. I'm not quite sure what to expect.

Today I bought the Indiana Jones DVD collection box set thing. It looks good!

I had some good times at work recently. I have been training in Home Electronics and so far its been fun. At school though it hasn't been much fun. I have been swamped with work and assignments. In computer science I handed in another assignment in Math I have a midterm on Thursday. In Film I have a midterm on Wednesday. I have a major research essay due in English. I also have a Computer Science midterm next Tuesday. Not to mention another Stats midterm in a week or two. So it is a busy time of year! I can't wait till midterms are over and back to an easy time at school.

On Thursday I had a good day at school. In math i got back an assignment and guess what 30/30 and then in computer science another 100%. It sure was a good day. Next up in my list of things to do it so finish the next Computer Science assignment for Tuesday. It shouldn't be all that difficult. It is two questions dealing with classes and sorts lists.

If you are in need of a good song to listen to try Clokx - Clocks. It is a trance remix of Coldplay's Clocks except no vocals. Oh if you haven't heard of Coldplay go listen to that too. For those out there that want some good bass stuff check out Zombie Nation's Absorber cd. I downloaded it a while ago and it is still a great cd to listen to.

Today I had my training for working a till. I'm still not 100% at it and I might be a little slow but I'm learning. I sure hope that when I work in Home Entertainment I don't end up having lots of customers who buy all sorts of weird things. For me the complicated stuff is rainchecks and By the way I hate the High 5 program! Don't ask its just gay. Oh well I gotta do what I gotta do. I found what I think to be a funny quote.

Well the weekend is over and tomorrow we return to school. My weekend was uneventful and boring. But thats alright by me. It just gave me some time to sit around and watch some tv and do some homework. In last weeks Stats exam I think I got a 95%. It was that easy!Tomorrow is the big day at work. I will get my till training and then I will be able to work at Home Entertainment.

Today the Riders beat the Stamps 24-22 which cliched the Riders a playoff spot. Also, the Leafs tied Washington 2 - 2. Thats a big turn around from Saturdays crushing 4 - 0 defeat to Montreal.

Well the time has come. The time I'm talking about is Thanksgiving. This is one of the only holdidays I get for the entire semester from school. But before I get to go on a holiday I must write one midterm. This midterm is in Stats 151. This midterm will involve Probabilty ; Z-scores ; Means, Medians and Modes. It shouldn't be that bad but who knows. I'm getting ready for anything. In work news I am moving from stock to a split role of Stock and Home Entertainment. Should be some fun times. I can't wait since I've been gettin bored of doing the same thing for a long time. Also I wouldnl't mind switching to Home Entertainment because winter is coming and that means getting carts from out in the snow. I did that last year and it is a lot of work.

Alright, everyone rejoice. Hockey season is among us once again. Hockey is the best game on ice. I can't wait to sit back and watch 100's of games throughout the season. On Thanksgiving monday the riders are at home and it should be a great game. I'm going to try to be there since it should be a lot of fun.

Today I got my first computer science assignment. I'm not sure if I read it correctly but it says 93. I was in shock. If you want to see my code I put it in the school stuff. In other news. .

DAVIS RECALLED - SCHWARZENEGGER WINS . . am I glad I got that out of way. But really I won't be affected by this recall at all seeing as how I'm not American nor from California. The N-Gage was realeased today by Nokia. I'm interested in it but thought I might as well mention it. In news that I actually sort of care about. . The Canadian dollar broke a seven year high on the American dollar. It surged about the 75 cent mark. Yeah nothing much of anything interesting has been happening lately. I haven't been having much in the way of midterms yet theres always next week. Work is always a fun time, although now that I'm in school I haven't been working as much. Oh well, I guess their hinting to me that I better study.

Well I officially finished my Computer Science assignment and I feel so relaxed. Yesterday night I polished off my English assignment. Did you know that by changing words using a thesaurus it can make your writing look professional? The computer science assignemnt ended up taking forever. . all day saturday, sunday , and now monday! With the exception of 3 hours for my English essay I haven't done anything in the past 3 days. Good thing the UPS guy came today with Family Guy Volume 2, Ferris Bueller's Day off, and Wayne's World. Then tomorrow Lion King. It should be a relaxed next couple of days!

For those that haven't seen it yet, there is a video of the home shopping channel and some guy it testing out a ladder that is for sale and . . I don't want to ruin it. Get it here. Another funny joke off Ebaumsworld. Have you ever swallowed Sea water?

Leafs beat Detroit yesterday 4 - 2 in their final preseaon matchup.

I sure do hate assignments. Right now I'm working on an english essay and a computer science assignment. The computer science assignment is taking forever to finish. I have been working on it for I'd say 10 hours. And I'm only almost done 1 of the 2 questions. This sure is a lot of work. The english essay is on Romeo and Juliet. I have to do some sort of essay on the first act and whether I think that Shakespeare did a good job at introducing the book. I have to hurry and finish all this work since the essay is due monday and the cs assignment is due tuesday!! Looks like I'm going to not leaving this chair for a long time.

Are books really worth it? I ask myself this question now that I have paid for my books. Luckily i didn't pay that much for all my books. But is the money i paid equal in value to the quality of the writing in the books? I probably will only read parts of the books and then when I'm done with them I will have the choice to either keep them in the chance i might use them again or should I sell them? If I sell them another person will come along and only pay me part of what I had paid. What if the university provided books like back in high school? Now, wouldn't that be convienent and cheaper? Well enough about books.

School is going pretty good. . . other than that last film test. I sure hope I get 30percent since I didn't do all that well. In math I'm having a good easy time. Stats again a good easy time. English , well I was never all that strong in English. Computer Science. . I have an assignment due on tuesday, these assignments are some of the hardest things I have ever done when it comes to programming. I pictured CS as a fairly easy class but this stuff is so complicated and specific. There is very little leeway when it comes to the proper spelling and capitalization of commands. An example is Int isn't the same as int. Like come on whats the big deal? Well anyway I just plan on getting the assignment done and for it to run correctly.

Can't wait till October 11th, Leafs season opener at the ACC.

Alright I lost all my old updates to my webpage so thats why they're gone. Since they're old updates it doesn't matter if their gone.

Well university has started up and its been fun. I have a fun time going to classes and sitting on the bench when I'm not in class. For those who don't know what I'm talking about when I say the bench, well I guess you could ask. My classes are Math 110, Stats 151, English 100, Computer Science 170, and Film 100. I figure that my easy classes should be Math, Stats, and Film. My hard classes will be English and Computer Science. Computer Science will be hard since I am skipping ahead. I skipped CS 100 and 110. That just means I'm going to have to try harder and catch up. It's going to be a challenge.

One great invention that I have is my Palm Tungsten C. It works great at school. Since the UofR has wireless internet at most places on campus I can go on MSN in class. Then I can also play all sorts of games and other interesting things. I can also update my schedule and write down all my assignments. I don't know where I'd be without it. Probably at the same place just a little less organized.

At work I am having a great time. I like my job since I don't have any huge responsibilities. I also don't have any stress from working. I enjoy my discount and the raises that I get out of nowhere. Although it isn't much and some might be making more I am now making $8.05/hour. Even with a full course load at school I am still working 15 or so hours a week. I think this is a managable schedule and expect to have time for school and work.

Go Riders - Go Leafs Go.
