April 19, 2004Is It Finally Over?*Gasps* Wow, it is... unbelievable! It seemed like school would never end. Even after classes ended, I somehow found myself working day and night (literally) on an assignment for another week... I can't even begin to explain how wrong that was.I guess coming back from PEY I expected that going back to school full-time was going to require a bit of an adjustment... but I definitely wasn't prepared for all the turmoil I encountered this year. I took some CS courses during PEY so I wasn't completely out of the academic groove of things, and I figured that getting those courses out of my way would lessen my burden this year. I only had 1.5 CS courses this year with the rest being art courses. Ironically, this year turned out to be the roughest one I'd ever had. I think I pulled more all-nighters this year than in all my other years combined... like, jeez, in just the last 3 weeks of school (and the 1 week of non-school) I saw the sun rise 6 times. On the flip side though, I had a surprisingly fun year. I met a bunch of new people and participated in CSSU events for the first time I've been at U of T. I'm not one to get invovled in student unions and stuff, but I'm actually going to be on the CSSU next year, which I totally didn't expect myself to be a part of. So... something to look forward to next school year! Here are some important things I learned this year:

April 8, 2004So You Want To Learn Japanese...I just read this HILARIOUS essay about learning Japanese. Here's the opener: You've eaten at a few Japanese restaurants, seen some anime, hosted an exchange student, and had a Japanese girlfriend. And now, somewhere in the back of your tiny brain, you think that Japanese would be a good language to learn. Hey, you could translate video games! Or Manga! Or even Anime! Pick up Japanese girls, impress your friends! Maybe you'll even go to Japan and become an anime artist! Yeah! Sounds like a great idea! I was actually thinking of taking Japanese next year... maybe I should reconsider :P

April 3, 2004I Say We Spring Forward a Month Instead of an HourStill one more week of school, then exams, and then JAPAN! I'm so excited about it, but I don't have too much time to do research and plan what we're going to do there. But I did take the time to list out a bunch of interesting links on the side that I've accumulated while reading up about it. Sushicam and Tokyo Boy are a couple of fun blogs I like to visit. Tokyo Boy's page is a moblog, which means he blogs from his mobile phone. How nifty is that? I actually set one up myself using Mfop2. I tried it out and it works great, but I won't be able to moblog while I'm in Japan because apparently the wireless network over there is far too advanced for the cell phones here. Dagnabbit, we're living in the stone age!
