What College Major Are You/Should You Be?

It's a tie!

Your major should be part Engineering. Logic is your friend. With enough work, you can find a solution to anything... Unless it involves dating or parties.
Your major should be part Computer Science. You like nothing more than spending long nights with friends in the computer lab... which is a good thing since that's exactly how you'll spend the next couple years.


wow.. how true

April recap.. so far

Wow.. over a month since my last post.

Been real lazy lately I guess. Most nites are spent watching Japanese dramas...

Recap of April.. so far:
1. Went to Hocc's concert @ Casino Rama
2. Managed somehow to win $2.50 at video poker, a 50% ROI (put in $5, started to press buttons which I have no idea what they are, and somehow won that hand)

3. got a haircut and hi-lites
4. Went downtown, visited St.Lawrence Market for the first time
5. Had a nice afternoon drinking beer on the patio (really really nice weather this past weekend)
6. Went to Harbourfront to 吹湖風 (but there wasn't much wind)
7. got a little bored and started taking self-portraits

Windows Vista

All I can say is that...

Congratulations Microsoft, you've outdone yourself this time with Vista!!!

It sucks majorly.
For the 3 weeks that I've been using it, there's nothing but frustration, grief and anger.
I can't begin to count the things I hate about it. I can't find Window programs that I've been using with previous versions of Windows, some programs doesn't work with Vista, redesigned programs that became less user friendly, the list goes on and on....

I just hope I get my old laptop back in the near future, I just can't stand Vista.

一公升的眼淚

終於睇完一公升的眼淚(Ya, I know, 好 out!!!).
舊年十月喺香港嗰時播緊, 睇咗兩集. lee套劇喺香港牽起一陣澤尻繪里香(沢尻 エリカ - 劇中女主角) 熱潮...
其實未睇之前都知道係個煽情嘅劇集, 諗咗好耐睇唔睇埋佢好, 因為自己唔係太鍾意睇煽情片, 好多時都係一啲是必要令你必眼淚, 寫到個故仔超慘絕人寰.

不過睇完之後, 都覺得幾好睇..
平時要我必一滳眼淚都幾難 (其實要見到我有淚光都已經好難).. 但係睇lee套日劇, 我竟然喊咗好幾次.. 可能感受到女主角同佢屋企人要承受好多壓力同別人嘅奇異眼光、閒言閒語.....

Snowboarding Pic

Sunday

I was expecting that I will be in pain after a day of snowboarding and a nite of drinking (I'm not sure how I managed to stay awake after several hours of snowboarding and alcohol). To my surprise, I wasn't in too much pain. I think I was in more pain/discomfort last nite.

Snowboarding @ Dagmar

Went snowboarding at Dagmar Resorts today. It was a nice day, not extremely cold, except for the occasional harsh winds. Other than a few bruises, tired and a little pain today, it was very fun. I think I have improved on my snowboarding skills. There's still a lot to work on but I don't fall as often as I used to. I think I've went on the chair lift at least 5-6 times and the "Magic Carpet" conveyor belt for the bunny hill 5-6 times. However, there are two major things I have to work on for the next time: getting off the chairlift without falling and the heel lift, can't seem to lift my heel up when going down the hill.

Our day was unexpectedly cut short when an ex-coworker fell when he was going down the hill and hit his head. We had to get the ski patrol to step in and help out. The coworker was bought to the first aid center to be checked up. The ski patrol were a bit concerned and recommended us bringing him to the hospital. After further observation, they have decided to call an ambulance. The ski patrol put the coworker on a board with neck collar, a bunch of belts to keep him from moving. He was then loaded into the ambulance and taken to hospital. I almost got to ride in the ambulance as a translator. At the end, they thought that he's capable of answering questions and that no translator is needed. The doctors at the hospital checked him up and everything seems ok, and discharged him without further observations.

It was a bit of a scare, but at the end everything turned out alright.

We stand as one




祝 Good Show!!

Too bad I can't watch it again!!

P.S. I can't seem to find a good snowboard jacket within my budget and warm enough. Can't seem to find a pair of good snowboard boots neither....

Mung

近幾天返工好mung.
成個禮拜都喺到睇同改其他人嘅 code, 改一樣, 另一樣就crash.
改人哋啲code唔work都唔係太差....
但 係要改一啲design得好差又唔合理嘅algorithm. 而家要加features... 係一件難同非常口人嘥時間嘅事... 好想將所有code扔走, 由頭在寫過 (有同事想將現有嘅code印出來, 一把火燒咗佢). 最衰因為時間有限, 暫時只可以用現有嘅code.

Can't believe I'm looking forward to adding stuff to my work load but really looking forward to the day when I can trash the shitty code and rewrite the website!!!!

Updates for December 2006 and first week of 2007

Dec 22 - Xmas party at work. Had a pot luck and went home at 1 pm.
Dec 26 - Went to Boxing Day sale, hardly bought a thing (thank god..)
Dec 31 - Went over to a friend's for hot pot.. didn't feel like drinking since I was sick. 2006 passed by quietly... digital cable had a bunch of violent and disturbing things to watch, yet they are very interesting...

Jan 1 - Had a nice lunch with a bunch of friends.
Jan 4 - Happy B-day TK!! Went to work in downtown for the first time. Took my first ride on the GO bus and GO train. It's definitely more comfortable than riding on the TTC. It's definitely different to work in downtown, I'm not sure I would want to work in downtown though. Tested out the free wi-fi access provided by the government, it is extremely slow. You can barely load a page using that service.
Jan 5 - Went to work downtown in the afternoon. Finally got my project finished. Also watched the Junior Hockey Championship on TV while working (I might actually get used to working in this environment). Congrats on Team Canada for winning the game!!!
