A Quick Lesson in Physics Sun, Jan 23rd 2005 6:39 pm

Turns out washing my glasses in hot water was extremely unwise.

See, my lenses were very lightly scratched and I figured some hot water would somehow soften the lens and they’d heal or some crazy stupid sh*t like that. Well, “heal” they did not. In […]

Seems I've developed a twitch... Wed, Jan 19th 2005 11:50 pm

My right eyelid has been twitching on and off all day, and it’s starting to bug me. I did what comes natural to anyone with a problem who has Internet access: I Googled it.

The results explained that it may be caused by a number of specific […]

Busy Busy Mon, Jan 17th 2005 10:17 pm

Ah, the sweet sweet feeling of purpose. I have a job to do, so I’ll probably be a wee bit less active on here (as you’ve seen so far). Though typing stuff isn’t terribly time-consuming, so it might not be that bad.

Some good news: I saw a bird […]

Reinventing Pong Sat, Jan 15th 2005 3:57 pm

I suppose ‘rewriting’ would be the better word. In my 11th-grade computer science course, I wrote Pong in the 3rd dimension (in Java), inspired by the 3D pong on aaron-wright.com, but with a cleaner, less ‘alien’ look.

I’ve spent the last two days […]

Thunderstorms in January Wed, Jan 12th 2005 9:49 pm

Never in all my 18 years did I ever imagine I’d live to experience a thunderstorm in January. But here I sit in a room in a house being pelted by rain and lit up by lightning bolts outside my window. Sweet Jesus.

Is this just another symptom of […]

Opera, this is why I hit you... Wed, Jan 12th 2005 6:35 pm

Because you’re a filthy, uneducated skank!

Ok, that’s a little harsh. Opera’s not a terrible browser, but it does a terrible job of ‘browsing’ my site’s menu. I had to hunt some hideous CSS hack and define its width precisely (333px) to prevent it […]

@#&! Mon, Jan 10th 2005 3:09 pm

In order to truly understand the anger inside me at this moment, I’d like whoever’s reading this to imagine stubbing every one of your toes, then bashing your shin off a steel coffee table. That isn’t what happened, but the string of profanity that […]

Vraagh! I can't possibly be bored... Sat, Jan 8th 2005 8:54 pm

…But I am. I haven’t been on my computer very much lately.

Perhaps it’s because I’ve focused the majority of my consciousness over the last two days on formatting my brother’s laptop and my parents’ PC (twice). Or maybe it’s because I don’t have […]

College Bound Fri, Jan 7th 2005 4:57 pm

I always told myself I’d be going to university because I’ve always perceived college as inferior. That may even be true, but it seems that for certain people looking to be doing certain careers, college may be the only option. Take me, for […]

Off Season Sun, Jan 2nd 2005 10:10 am

I feel I should explain the lack of photos being added to the site. I’ve really just fallen into an inspiration rut, and the hideousness of the winter in the GTA isn’t helping at all.

Though now that I have this zoom lens, I hope I can get some […]
