day 231 — i went to garden city to do some shop­ping. whilst mess­ing about with my dual boot, i acci­dent­ally deleted the grub boot files, mean­ing that i couldn’t run either win­dows or ubuntu. my net­book doesn’t have a cd reader, so i thought i’d have to buy one to fix my com­puter. we […]

2008 in review

wow … 2008 was a hell of a year. for me, it was prob­ably the busiest and cra­zi­est year of my life.
the year star­ted with a bang. first came the big d, fol­lowed by quit­ting my uni­ver­sity job and start­ing work at an adult edu­ca­tion school. i really missed my uni­ver­sity pos­i­tion. it was such a […]

photo a day #142 — buddha sparkling

craig has been in korea for nearly two weeks. so far we’ve had a bit of fun and hung out together. mostly, it was good to catch up with him, since i haven’t seen him in three years. on sat­urday night, craig and i headed out to coex to phở­to­graph the huge buddha statue at […]

i hate being sick

i’ve had a cold since about tues­day. the usual symp­toms began with a sore throat fol­lowed by a shitty head cold. i’m felling a bit bet­ter today, but i’ve still got a cough and my nose feels like an open tap. i will prob­ably have a runny nose for a few days, then i should […]

lousy hockey

craig’s team, the amaz­ingly mediocre ott­awa sen­at­ors, were the first team bundled out of this year’s nhl play­offs. my team, the almost as mediocre new jer­sey dev­ils, were the second team to go … the dev­ils only won one game in their play­offs, prov­ing again how badly they suck against new york teams … despite […]

hooray for hockey

thanks to a cer­tain sey­mour, i won a fantasy hockey league this year. at the begin­ning of the sea­son, i felt inspired to join some hockey leagues. how­ever, for numer­ous per­sonal reas­ons, i gave up and didn’t play … as a res­ult, all of the teams were com­ing dead last.
so, i turned the teams over to […]

a really fun day

today, the girl and i went out to tech­no­mart. the main pur­pose was jeans and pants for work, how­ever we did spend money on a few other things. we bought new mobile phones (both motorola krazrs) which we actu­ally got for free … the bene­fit of switch­ing phone pro­viders. we also bought wire­less mouses (mice??)
