Nice gothic type fonts. which I cant freakin use for my website coz I would need to convert the alphabet to .jpgs… maybe when I have time.
Spent the last half an hour trying to fix the font for the title. Darn thing is supposed to be a cursive font not arial. Sigh. Thats what happens when one has to use premade css sheets. Wait till winter vacations. Going to revamp the entire thing MY way. From scratch.
Yesterday Norman Finklestein came to gave a lecture at our esteemed University. Hmm. Wasnt bad. Got educated (even though might be a little biased) on the Palestine - Israel Issue. Hes a jew fighting for Palestinian rights for those unaware of the name.

Arvand’s viewpoint on Ramazan. Tis. funny. He sort of used one of my comments (the one about Iranians supposedly being conservative), although it is majorly exaggerated.

Daylight Savings Time: Push back clock an hour
Locked my keys in the car today. Abo had to take a bus and come with the other keys. Thankfully Abo forgave me pretty fast. Otherwise moi was feeling quite ridiculous. Also Em. got engaged today in a church in Brampton. Was interesting. The priest performed a cermony and all kinds of rituals. Was lovely. Two of them have been together for so long.

“How to Raise your I.Q. by Eating Gifted Children” - Lewis B. Frumkes (1983)
Update again eh. Hmm lets see. Been a busy week. Monday was mostly class, Tuesday spent the day dismantling and putting together motherboards and computer cases. Installing and unstalling software at work. Was interesting. Can now put together a computer from scratch. Next computer I get will definately not be storebought. Will put it together myself. On Wednesday had to go downtown for class as usual, cant really remember what I did other than do some studying. Yesterday set off an alarm. Had a key for the new Research wing. I had already used it for the room on the 3rd floor of SB where I work for the Bioinformatics job I’ve hired for currently. Its a electronic key card with a code to punch in. However I was supposed to have access to the new biotech. computer lab on the 2nd floor. So just to check it out, tried the key. Unfortunately it did work, however apparently I needed to have a code to shut off the automatic alarm as well… that apparently the prof. had forgotten to give me. So…. sigh… police came (very late I must add) and I had to give me name and student number blah blah. Life. Today… had a midterm. Started studying at 10 a.m. and considering the midterm was at 12 p.m… so not a good thing. However considering we had too little time and no one finished it, Im hoping he’ll bell it. In the evening went to the 2nd Bridging the Gap conference. Sort of a leadership thing. We had games and icebreakers, discussion sessions and a speaker. Food was pretty good too. Also the theme was really nice, all based on the Lord of the Rings. Unfortunately moi got a table with Gollum as the central character. tsk tsk. However ended up joining the Wizards later which wasn’t too bad. :). Have like a zillion things to do this weekend. Emileens getting engaged tommorow night and then Horseback riding on Sunday morning (after soooooooooooooooo long) and like midterm and 2 assignments due next week…. la la la. Overhyper today.
