Move along, nothing to read

Looking at my journal now, I even surprise myself. For several days now, I've said nothing.

So I shall now remedy that, and try to keep more up to date.

Wednesday, after my nap and working on my webpage, I was up until 4am working on my Business assignment, then I had only a little bit of sleep.

Got up groggily, went to my NMI class to present my videos. I'll put them up in a bit, if anybody wants them in a meantime, send me a message and I'll send them via ICQ. Had the math exam in the afternoon, manage to remember how to deal with expontional variables in calculus, then went home. Marissa phoned in the early evening, right after her class, because her vision was acting up again. I spent the evening starting to work on Mr. Sokugawa's linux server.

On Friday, I was going to wake up at 8am, but I slept till 10am instead. Had soup for lunch. Went out to Home Depot to buy Marissa's birthday gift then came home. The weather was really bucketing with rain. Later on, I got a ride up to Hastings to catch the 135 SFU bus, while my mother was heading to the airport to pick up my father.

I got up to SFU, where, in the middle of March, it was snowing. Freaky weather. Marissa and I boarded the new bus, and headed off to Surrey to set up for her party. Cellphones are handy in stopping you from having to get off the skytrain and use a payphone. Went via the video store on the way to her house, got the movie "AI".

Towards 5.30pm, Marissa and her father went back to King George skytrain station to pick up the other guests, and during that time I tried, unsucessfully, to get Laura's webcam working. It is a really crappy thing from IBM.

The others returned, guests: Angela, Vanessa, Tara. We talked about pizza which was interesting, because Tara used to work at a pizza shop, and Laura wanted huge piles of toppings on the pizza. While the pizza's were on order, we did Marissa's gifts. I'm sure she'll post about them in her LiveJournal, so I won't write about there here, except to say I gave her a big blacklight from Home Depot.

We had 3 large 14" pizzas between 6 people, then there was an argument between Tara and Laura, as Laura was taking a certain viewpoint that upset Tara. When Angela was leaving, Tara nearly left too, but didn't in the end. Angela was leaving as she had to be home earlier.

The rest of us watched the movie, which was really good, and touching. We then had nice ice-cream cake, and talked about all sorts of things more, punctuated by all of us except tara changing into night gear. Vanessa was tired, so she went to bed after a bit, and then the 3 of us sat in Marissa's room with the blacklight, talking about things.

On Saturday, went all went downtown with LiveJournal people and went round ScienceWorld. Visited Yvonne at work, then went via Metrotown home.

Today i've been working on more computer stuff.

WOW! This livejournal entry has taken me a long time to write. I started at 4.48pm, and now i'm done around 12.30am.

Ok, so I lied a bit. I decided to sort out something first. My webpage and LiveJournal now work properly with the latest version of Mozilla 0.9.9. Additionally, I am writing a colour system, so you can choose which colour scheme my homepage and LiveJournal will appear in. Have a look at http://www.orbis-terrarum.net/?l=prefs for a start. Colour scheme suggestions are welcome.

Just an update on the last two days as well. Yesterday I woke up absurbly early to take my father to the airport, then went home, only to go to school a bit after that for a job interview. I applied for the Java Peer Helper position at TechBC. After my interview, I went to visit Marissa for a bit, and had lunch with her and just relaxed for a while. Then came home and although I should have been working on my business assignment more, I didn't feel like it, so I just ended up delving into my webpage some. I got an email saying I didn't get the job. No big deal anyway.

This morning I had my HTTC presentation at 10am, Thomas was a bit late for it, but other than that it went well. Got 24/25 on it. Came home, had lunch. Fixed my webpage more.

Now I am going to take that nap. Bye!

Do you have Superpowers??

I took the Paragon Powers Test and tested positive for

Argh. My computer just spontanously rebooted, taking out my entire long journal entry I was writing. So what is below is a summarized version of the daily summary I was writing.

Woke up late this morning, 6.35am. I had to leave by 6.45am, so it was a mad rush. Just dress, brush teeth, drink a glass of water and go. But it's a Monday, and I don't normally go on a Monday. Alas, this week is TechWeek. The scourge of TechBC students. Luckily Transit was working in my favour today, I hardly had to wait for any changes between busses and skytrain, so that worked out well. I had to be at school early to give a debate for Process Elements. Why can't any other members of my team at least have some public speaking experience?? I was really really tired when I got to school, so temporarily gave up on my zero caffinne state (none all weekend), and ate a few white-chocolate coated coffee beans. Those got me going in a hurry.

After my presentation, i sat in class and evaluated other groups while working on my laptop. After that, I filmed a bit more for HTTC, and met CrazyDave for lunch, and showed him TechBC.

I thought I had a programming test at 1.30pm, but it was at 1pm actually, so I got there 15 minutes late. Despite that, and writing the program twice, with all sorts of fancy comments, I was teh first person finished. It took only in 20 minutes. I got 100%, and was the first to leave. Seriously, that class is a joke.

I'm really sleepy tonight, I think from lack of sleep revealed by not having caffinne.

From HumanForSale:
You are worth exactly: $2,503,630.00.

I am Sephiroth; I was the strongest soldier in the Shinra army. I was a pretty good guy, and even destroyed the occasional monster. Eventually, I found out I was made in a lab, and went crazy. I then summoned a huge meteor to crush the planet!
Which RPG villain are you?

Had lunch with Marissa (Subway foot long sub, and I treated her as well), then went to my NMI class. Our video turned out quite nicely.

Both of my NMI team members and Marissa took SkyTrain with me, and we slowly parted ways. Thomas and some guy on the train discussed the TV show, FarScape for a bit. I agree, it is a neat show.

At MetroTown, wandered through the dollar store with Marissa for a bit, but she didn't find what she was looking for. I loaned her some extra small change to buy the addfare for the bus up to SFU for her English class.

Then I went to look for her birthday gift, since her birthday is on the Ides of March. I was told previously what I was looking for cost $20, but I found it ranging from $30 to $40, so I'm going to see about getting something like it at Home Depot instead, since that should be cheaper.

Walked over to Royal Oak to meet up with my family, went for all you can eat Sushi. Had well more than my $20 of sushi and food. Nice oranges afterwards too.

Just got home now. My legs are really sore for some reason, like I've been walking a huge distance.

For my caffinne consumption today, I had one mug of earl grey tea this morning, two chocolate bars this afternoon, and half a cup of green tea with my sushi. Tommorow I will have less.
