Well that wasn't so bad...

I just came back from the C24 final, and I must say that it went a lot better than I expected. And my expectations weren't as low as you may expect for one who starts to study only 16 hours before an exam. But I hear that the C04 final marks are available on ROSI, which can't mean good things for my GPA... I think I'll hold off on checking it until after my last exam, for C02.... :X

Oi, I'm getting a bit more nervous about my upcoming co-op position at Microsoft Canada as my official first day comes closer. Actually, it's more of a feeling of excitement than of fear, but the anticipatory response is quite evident.

Here's an interesting story from Discovery Channel:
EARTH’S MOON YIELDS NEW MINERAL DISCOVERY

Scientists have discovered a new mineral by examining a meteorite from the moon.

The mineral is called Hapkeite and is formed when small meteorites hit the surface, traveling at speeds up to 100,000 kilometers per hour.

Heat generated by the impact melts and vaporizes metals, which are then re-deposited on rock fragments as tiny, randomly scattered beads in a glassy coating.

The new mineral is a combination of iron and silicon.

Also from those wonderful brainiac from is the ultimate guide to laser tag dominance. Let's just say I won't be as concerned with my aim after this scientific experiment. ;)
