Too damn hot...

So, I've now convocated and am officially a University graduate, whatever the hell that means. I'm not sure what I expected from the ceremony, but somehow my high school graduation even managed to feel more memorable and meaningful then yesterday. Oh well, the dinner afterward was nice ( Read more... )

After 15 years of leaving my wallet in the change room of the Toronto Climbing Academy, I left today, after a day of climbing, to discover my wallet just outside the front door (not in my pocket where it should have been) with the contents strewn about, minus any money and my credit card. Clearly, I'd been stupid to trust my fellow climbers (as ( Read more... )

Where do people go for sushi grade fish in Toronto?

Well, maybe not forever, but a good while at least. Had my final exam today, and what an exam to end it on! Only spent about an hour looking over the notes ahead of time, walk in and then out again a half-hour later assured of an 80, if not a 90. And then what better way to cap the whole thing off then beer on the Grad Lounge's roof top patio (5 ( Read more... )

This past week has been hell, I think before last night (when I got a blessed whole 6 hours of sleep) I'd had about 20-24 hours sleep in 7 days, with the past weekend being the worst.

Overall, it seems like a pretty good resolution, only a couple minor wrinkles left to iron out (such as getting a ( Read more... )

Sounds sort of creepy without the rest of the line, eh?It's finally starting to really feel like spring again, was walking around yesterday without a jacket and with me sleeves rolled up and it's even warmer today. Unfortunately, the assholes in the basement haven't seemed to have clued into the fact that it's spring time and still have the heat ( Read more... )

It seems I'm becoming an old man at 24... Every night I'm passing out exhausted earlier and earlier, and every morning I'm finding it harder to sleep in. Today I was fully awake at 5:30, which, while sometimes nice, is not what I wanted on a day when I didn't have to be anywhere ( Read more... )

As much as I dislike the fact that I'm constantly putting work off until the absolute last minute (generally resulting in me essentially not sleeping), the feeling of release and accomplishment when I finally do finish the assignment that I put off until the very last minute is amazing, and a little addictive ( Read more... )
