Another quarter has passed at UCSB as I just finished my last final about two hours ago. Overall this was quite an interesting quarter in which I started off taking three classes: Intro to Networking, Computer Graphics and a special class to prepare for the ACM Programming Competition. In addition to this classes I signed [...]

To aid in Thursday night drinking the bars downtown have established Thursday as College Night thus further increasing the next day’s tardiness. Being an Isla Vista resident Thursday night’s [...]

This is about the 5th time I had to redo our smb.conf for our file server in the hallway. I’m not very good at making backups of that machine when we upgrade the hardware or software, and there really is no reason to except for this one file. Well I think I’ve finally mastered it, [...]

So I’m sitting in my room pondering working on one of my projects and I get an email saying I was just meme-ed by Cheri. Unfortunately, as many of us know from facebook poking, virtual events do not correspond to physical events. And if they did I can’t even fathom what a good meme-ing would [...]
