Finally! A great wave of relief descends upon me as we inch towards the end of term. Classes after next week, and although there are still the final exams to deal with, I'm really glad to see the back of this term... It has been quite a hectic one...

Of all the midterms, Statistics was the most notable... Class average was a low 42%. Though I don't see how the professor expected any better, given the way he teaches... In an extremely Umbridge-like fashion, the prof expects us to prepare for exams using the (extremely pathetic) notes alone, without providing us with any relevant past exam questions or extra problems for practice.

On a happier note, I am now among the "Employed"! After some 90+ applications and 3 interviews, I was finally selected as a Co-op for Organizational Change Management at Loblaws, Inc. for the Winter 2012 co-op term. Goodbye JobMine, meet you next summer!

I guess that's about it for this post... I guess the next post will come sometime after I'm done with exams...

Until then, take care.

Good Night (or Day).

Hello there!

The last time I blogged, I was one week into the Fall term. Starting off my second year at university. Settling into my new place. Ready to take on the term...

Fast forward a month or two...

Lets just say it has been a really hectic term so far. Photography activities are at an all time low, with a huge backlog of shots accumulated in Lightroom, waiting to be processed. Midterms are now over, with one exception, which will take place sometime late next week.

Have been applying to a load of jobs for the next term. Just hoping it all works out in a timely manner.

I have developed a new fascination for tech stuff, by keeping up with the latest news on Twitter. Lately, I've been spending a lot more time on Twitter than on Facebook... Follow me @SammSid

After a whole lot of debating (in my own head) about netbooks vs tablets, and simultaneously, Android Honeycomb vs iOS, I finally settled on the Apple Ipad 2. Got it from the new Apple Store that opened in Connestoga Mall in Waterloo. So far, it has been an awesome experience. The iPad's primary use for me currently is web browsing, Tweeting, email, and reading PDF files for assignments... Lately, I use a Bamboo Stylus for rough work, calculations and notes. I've also been taking all my Financial Accounting notes on Evernote.

I just felt like writing something tonight. Hence, this blog post...

Anyways, until next time...
