Imagine Cup 2004 Project

I haven’t posted for a few days as I have been sick/studying/working on Imagine Cup 2004. My last exam is tomorrow (391) then its hardcore programming until the deadline. We announced our project name and logo yesterday, check it out!

More details to follow over the weekend…

William Hung Album Downloaded!

So tonight I downloaded the William Hung album entitled “Inspiration” just for kicks. I wasn’t sure if I would consider the download worth it, but after listening to a couple songs, the power of this comedy is overwhelming I have decided that it is definitely worth it!

On the other hand my ears are bleeding from this song, so horribly, terribly, bad…and you can’t help but laugh!

RE: Portable numbers not seen as imminent

Looks like we’re going to have to wait a while to switch to Bell everyone.

Canadians won’t be able to take their mobile phone numbers with them when they switch companies until at least seven out of 10 people have a wireless phone, Bell Mobility Inc. president Michael Neuman believes.

More than four of 10 Canadians today have a mobile phone and some analysts believe it will take until about 2015 to reach seven of 10.

Stupid CRTC doesn’t make ANY smart decisions. They need to listen to consumers more and ignore the payoffs from the telecommunications industry! In the meantime I am stuck with Telus (which is still better than you poor suckers on Rogers or Fido!).

CMPUT 391 Project Mark!

I am sure you all remember the weekend Dickson and I did not sleep in order to finish our CMPUT 391 term project. Well at long last the marks are in. Dickson has written a great post about it, so I won’t spoil it – read his post here.

Learn to drive people!

Somehow the skies have turned against us and the snow fell today like it was Christmas – only without the joy. The list of accidents on the radio was outrageous, and I was inches away from own accident. Coming down 17th street, it was easy going (although extremely slippery) North (my direction) but backed up for miles going South. Of course, some idiot out of frustration tries to turn around from the south bound lane into mine, right in front of me. I had to swerve way to the right and missed his front end by only inches. Moron.

After that ordeal it was very slow and icy the rest of the way. I walked into my exam this morning at five to nine, just in time! My exams today were both pretty easy, the morning one even more so (MARK 301). If I can finish my take-home exam tonight this will be the first time I have knocked off three exams in one day!

Needless to say with finals and all this snow and bad weather, I wish I was back in Seattle!
