Here's a quick update. Things have been going great. My last week was pretty busy, at least by my standards. I know a lot of people in my field are used to and expected to be working over time, so I really shouldn't be complaining, and I'm not, but for me working over fifty hours a week is a lot. I had a lot of work last week because of a demo that was being presented on Friday, so everything had to be working smoothly and presentable by then. Anyways, I'm really not complaining. I think the demo went well, not perfect but pretty good, and I learned a lot and I think I showed my company that I'm dependable and capable in a tight spot. I'm the type of person that really values my free time, and being expected to work overtime on a daily basis is not something I ever want to be doing, but once in a while when important deadlines are approcaching I think is all right.

Outside of work, things have been going well. Working out is still going strong. The previous weekend I went to London and hung out with Allan and Jon for his birthday which was fun. The past weekend I had a little family potluck get together. Good food, a nice gift exchange and fun playing games was had by all. I was also the champion at ping pong for the night.

I can't wait till Christmas!

Well, things are going well. I met up with Care a little while ago which was nice. I used to see this girl just about everyday in undergrad, and she lives about a 5 minute walk from my house, but I couldn't even remember the last time I saw her. We both figure it was sometime about last April on her birthday that we last saw eachother. Time really does go by fast these days. Anyways, it was really good seeing her again, we just went to Williams for some drinks/desert and catch up on what's been going on in our lives.

Friday I attended my company's Christmas party. It was a fun event where I got to hang out with some coworkers in a non-working environment. The food was good, and the speeches/slideshow where nice. My table won the prize for the writting the best poem/limerick during dinner. We each got a $5.00 gift certificate to Timmy's, booyah!

Saturday I met up with Neeta and Eric, we went to the AGO to look at some art and get a little bit more culture. I really enjoyed looking at the sculptures and the paintings. There was also a huge exhibit with photographs by some guy, and it was all right at the start, but then it just became too much and I couldn't take any more photographs. I think I have more appreciation for things like sculptures or painting, things that take more time and effort to create. I'm not saying photography isn't a valid form of art or anything like that, I definately think photography is an interesting form of art and you can take some really amazing photos, but I just think there's a difference between making something with your two hands and snapping off a round of photos. My two cents.
