the weekend

3rd last weekend here @@

friday – Navarik had a go-away party for me, another coop student and one of the dev people, dinner at keg was uber, and i think the bill was … uber.est, we drank ALL their Stella it’s crazy, and man, i need to buy a pair of pilot/aviator sunglasses, they’re so cool. after dinner, everyone went for some more drinks at Celebrities (yes the gay club), which i think i’d probably never go in any other case, and… ya it’s like watching showcase tv or something, all i’m going to say is, all types of people are there, and it plays all types of music, half n3kk1d cowboys and male thrusting is NOT what i had planned, good thing keiko was by me

saturday, ding’s bday (that i almost completely forgot), i drove 100km just for you dood, and you didn’t even take those tequila shots (the round of shots for ALL SFHB!) with me, but it’s okay you had some trouble afterwards in the bathroom, you still owe me good before i leave though, i think i wanna go bunsen lake for a bbq on first weekend of may, unless i get to go camping or something

sun run sunday! i ran the whole way again yay, and trainning really helped, i thought i did worse, but really i improved my time by almost 7 min! 57:57, rank 9621, if i didn’t have a stupid cramp at like 4-5km pt i think i could’ve even done better, but now my right foot is like broken, and they didn’t have a free bbq/oxygen bar this year, boo urns

last week at work, i’m gonna miss it, and i still have lots work to do too >.< still have to go exchange cloth, shopping in states, do skimboarding, and maybe... swimming

*edit* i dont' want to make another post, but man, mike, you gotta see this movie, ESPECIALLY the trailer, (though you probably heard of it already), Snakes on a Plane, it’s SO GOOD ya?

this morning i actually got up at the right time for once (thanks to keiko), and that I had time to eat the all canadian chinese big breakfast like Paul’s Canadian Cantonese Restaurant (it’s a real place, right by Xcite, if you want sweet n sour pork and mcCain fries in same meal, Paul’s the place to be), can’t go wrong with ketchup fried rice + hashbrown, with ketchup.

so ya, i wore shorts today because i saw a ray of sunlight in the far distant sky, and you know what that means, i’m gonna be freezing, but noooo skytrain had the uber heater on my right so i was sweating, while my left side was shivering because of the wind/draft from outside, and then there was a bum – a chick too – in front of me who slept since i got on the station all the way to science world, and after i got off and walked down the stairs, a skytrain guy was helping some chick on the side because she was on the ground barfing out what she had for breakfast, and last night’s dinner, and probably more, in a contained manner – into a plastic bag

this post had absolutely no point, only cause janet tagged me good, like how i got her FIRST

ever since i started working, i started to like mac more and more, it can do everything, so easily, and stable, none of that “windows has encountered an unknown error” (and since windows can’t figure it out it must be the user), at the same time it’s a Mac, i can’t do anything on it, 0 gaming

but is that all going to change now? Mac just released this thing called Boot Camp, and basically it lets you run Windows XP (and Vista most likely) on your Mac, like a dual boot i’m assuming, is this a sign for me to be converted?

i like to know how well it works (can i play warcraft 3 or guildwars just as good/smooth?), or see it in action (amrik?), or maybe, see amrik in action
