Blargh…

29-Oct-05

Only a few more days until my ear surgery. I’m not looking forward to it, although talking with the nurse at my pre-op did ease my mind a bit. Apparently I’ll be getting a patch by my ear that delivers medicine to prevent the dizziness and nausea after the surgery. I hope […]

Bach

21-Oct-05

Recently, I decided to start listening to some Back on a whim. I heard good things about Gould so I listened to his Goldberg Variations, both his “young” and “old” versions. Then I listened to his rendition of the Well-Tempered Clavier. I must say I’m developing a taste for Bach. I […]

Gah…

Don’t you hate it when you’ve been working on a side project and then you find out it’s already been done? And better? I was working on a C++ library for simulating quantum computation and then I ran into this page. And the annoying thing is that I’ve started this side project […]

A deadline’s approaching for work and so my teammates and I are scrambling to finish up our code. It’ll all be over by this Friday but until then it’s high-stress all day. At least I haven’t had to pull any all-nighters like in college…

BoA’s make a secret

03-Oct-05

I just got a chance to watch BoA’s latest single make a secret. The song is your standard catchy but unremarkable pop tune. I like the video, however, as it is more focused on BoA’s (great) dance moves than some sort of plot. BoA’s outfit (especially her hat) reminds me of the […]

Summer is drawing to a close…

I was driving home yesterday when it started hailing. Hailing! This does not bode well for October. :(

Arise!

01-Oct-05

Arise, blog, from the dead! o_O
So I finally got around to installing WordPress. It feels a lot nicer than Movable Type, that’s for sure. I’ve never been too good at keeping my blog updated but this time it’s so easy to just post stuff that I might keep at this for a while. […]
