Warn Your Warmth To Turn Away

Wow, over 2 months. That's got to be some sort of horrible record for not updating a blog. Unless you count my other one, which is apparently still floating around the nether regions of the internet.

This term has been going surprisingly quick so far, quicker than any previous ones. Maybe it's because I haven't had to do the interview thing on top of all of my other responsibilities. I'm pretty sure that would have made me 'le crazy', as the French say. CS turns up the heat a notch or two every term, which is more than enough pressure for me. Not enough to make me go nuts or anything, but enough to make me wistfully think about dropping into English every once in a while.

All I can say is that I'm supremely happy I didn't take OS this term. Oh Lord, perish the thought. Sean, you have my sympathy.

It hasn't all been soul crushing Context Free Grammars though. The *entire* world doesn't run in O(nlogn) time. Amanda and I convinced Sean to buy a DS Lite, and we're looking to converting more people to the wacky cult of people with cool handheld electronic games. If we can convince Jarrett and Gee to buy one, we can be "those nerds who are always playing their game boys".

In other news, I'm apparently going to have two unknown roommates next term in TO. I lucked out getting Laura and John last term, as neither of them fit the "traditional mathie" mold. If I get some of the people who hang out in comfy and discuss World of Warcraft 24 hours a day, I'm going to hide in my closet and die.

Shit, I don't have a closet.

Here It's December Every Day

oh hah, I was close to buying a PSP this term too, thaat could have been akward. I suppose we could have people refer to us as "those nerds who are always playing their mobile gaming platforms", but it's just not the same. Plus you guys would all be networked playing cool games, and I'd be stuck all by myself, probably with a scratched screen and loose B button.

And I can't wait to get back on term with you guys! Maybe I'll come visit you Trevor up in TO..I'll get you outta that closet and out for some wings or something. eugh, that last sentence sounded a bit off, but you know what I mean.

cheers

Yeah, take today for example. Me and Sean are standing in the hall outside of UI waiting for class to start. We decide to play Mario Kart until then, which promps Amanda and two other people we don't know to pull theirs out too. UI Mario Kart Bonanza!

Man, you're in GERMANY Jarrett. That's the only place they sell Black DSes. Europe I mean.

DO it.

And my TO door is always open!
