Why My Blog Sucks
I'm sorry. Over the past month or so, I've not only posted a lot less, but there's been no BAM when I do post. No Ka-pow. Stale as an opened bag of Lays. It has gotten so bad that my own girlfriend won't read my posts. (She says she does, but honestly, does she really [...]

Google Calendar, iCal, Tie the Knot
As many of you have probably already noticed, I'm a big fan of both Apple and Google and often wish they synced better with each other. iCal has always been a great proprietary program for the Apple's OSX, especially for a disorganized student like me. However, due to …

Online Secret Santa
Whoever said it was easier to give than receive probably never bought a Christmas present for Aunt Lily. Spend over 35, and you've wasted too much hard earned money; spend less than 30 and you're officially the cheap nephew. Moreover, who do you buy presents for? Could …

Gmail Gets a New Look
I awoke this morning a bit late and was welcomed with a new look for my inbox. Following in Microsoft Live Hotmail's footsteps, Google has given Gmail Users themes. There's an interesting array of different shades of blue but most of them still maintain the classic …

The time has come again for me to choose my courses for the following semester and I am but a blank page. You see, I have been told that I need about 30 or so breadth credits in order to graduate. So tell me what your college major is and why you're so passionate about …

The Universal Profile Blogger Picture
While commenting on other forums and blogs, I often notice that the blog writer always has some witty picture of himself and I am always a faded silhouette. Well, no more! Here's how you get your own 5x7 when you comment on blogs...

Apple Macbook Unboxing
I decided to pick up (perhaps mortgage would be a better word) a Apple Macbook last week at Future Shop. I went for the lower aluminum model, with 2.0ghz core 2 dual and a 160gb hard drive. In some ways it was a tough choice over the more powerful 2.4ghz Macbook, which …

I'm Not a PC
I have been using a PC since the Windows 3.1 days and bought an Apple Powerbook G4 12' Laptop to start my college "career" almost 4 years ago. I loved the mac experience and even sort of became a bit of a fanboy, promoting Apple to all my friends. You could even call me …

Metrotown Stabbing
Every morning, millions of people are delivered a newspaper and inside, there are countless stories about car thefts, acts of violence, homicide, and suicide. Then, when you turn on the television, you're welcomed with C.S.I and 24 - shows where death occurs more times …

Another Student's Reflection
It's been well over a month since I did my first Video Blog, and I've decided to make some reflections. If any student wants a pointer to do better, here's a huge tip I've learned in my 16+ years of school: teachers, professors, and T.A's love reflection. Just like …
Fido Gets a New Doghouse
Rogers' foster child Fido re branded itself yesterday, shedding the passive turquoise and brown to a brighter neon-highlighter-written-on-a-post-it yellow. The logo itself is a doghouse drawn by a sharpie. More importantly though, Rogers has finally chosen to clearly …

Posterous - The Busy Student Blog
A lot of people wonder how I can be a student, work, have a social life, and run a blog all at the same time. Well first, you take out the social life. After that, there should be some time to spare (another good idea is to use your school papers as blog entries). However, [...]

The Macbooks are coming!
Okay, so this student hasn't posted as of late, and you can blame it on midterm season. En fait, I have one this afternoon. However, I had to take 10 minutes out of my 'studying' and let everyone know that the new Apple Macbooks and Macbook pros are officially coming …

Those who were following my late night tweeting last night were given a heads up. I had been talking about cleaning my room, and lots of people wanted to see if I really did spend 3 days on it, so here we are! Apparently the fine version on my camera uses up 400mb for a [...]
