Ahh.. will post some details later.. but here’s a picture of RPX, with new windshield wipers, head lightbulbs, polished headlights and very clean windows in preperation for the President’s Prize rally. We did really well and really badly. The parts we did do well, we managed to zero 4 checkpoints and within 6 seconds of zeroing 5 more checkpoints. But we missed three completely and that destroyed us. Sketchy instructions.

5hours and the first bits of the song has come together =P. err. don’t know how to publish mp3..

So I made a fairly obvious observation today.

Here are 3 songs that various members of TPX have said they “want TPX to play”. I leave it to you to guess who picked which songs, it’s pretty obvious who picked which song based on instrumental content.

MM.. on second thought it might not be SUPER obvious.. but.. its probably possible to figure out heh

Glay – Beloved

The Babystars – Sunday

Every Little Thing – Grip!

FLOW – Days

I’m right now in my office, think there’s some conference, so everybody’s away.

I walked over to my colleague’s desk, and I saw a picture there and I thought…wow….almost everybody I know from Queen’s post grad have a girlfriend.  (with exception to the bunch of China grad students I think).  Then I look a bit closer…?!?…is that a baby in that picture??

*dot dot dot*…..?!?!

that explains why he always calls home before leaving the office everyday, at first I just thought he’s devoted to his girlfriend or something…..now I get it….

I was at a conference workshop today, and the presenting laptop happens to be a mbp. So all the presenters had to load their ppt files onto the mbp to present. The last presenter kept on having trouble starting his presentation or something, and my guess is he kept on hitting F5 (or whatever the function key is to shrink out the current window and see all the active windows, hehe I don’t know how to use mac either) and he got so frustrated… and then someone in the audience sitting beside me was talking amongst themselves…
“What is he doing?”
“He is trying to use the Mac….that’s a Mac function”
“I thought Macs were easy to use”
“Apparently not”

Oh, and the workshop was coming to a close…it was running way over time already and the lights flickered already (I think the janitors or something are trying to hint at us to get out) but these researchers are so freaking talkative (imagine a roomful of talkative profs) and the chair for the panel has such poor organizational skills……she kept on asking “any other last thoughts or comments?” and then one guy on the panel said “Oh one more thing….” (and I laughed) and another guy on the panel said “This better be a finish slide or something”……but apparently not. He went on with some boring talk in a horrible European accent for another 10 minutes before finishing >.< I guess presenters need to be careful with using "one more thing..." eh.
