Office 2007
I just received my copy of Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007 in the mail this evening (literally 20 minutes ago). Apart from the box being water-stained in some parts, I was quite happy for it to arrive. Having enjoyed using the Office 2007 beta and RTM releases at work, I decided to install Office 2007 on my lappy. However, there was one thing ( Read more... ) -
Dreams of Parliament
Last night, I had a dream. I was in a nice, wood-panelled conference room. I was sitting and waiting with four or five other high-ranking suits (none of whom I could recognise). I felt a bit out of place since I was wearing khakis and long-sleeved t-shirt, but I couldn't care less. None of us were sure why we were there ( Read more... ) -
The third commandment
On the bus ride home from work today, I overheard two guys talking as they entered the bus, deciding where to sit.
"So, are you a front guy or a back guy?"

Last night, after a delicious Canadian Thanksgiving dinner at Kevin's place, I was sitting around my apartment, about to go to bed. I was just about to Alt-F4 my lappy when I had a sudden realisation:

The Don Files: Part I
Since I have not lived at St. Paul's since W06, since most people on my LJ friends list haven't lived there in two years, and since I'm going to be graduate in a few days, I thought that it'd be fun to take a trip down memory lane. (Plus, I want to document these stories before I forget them.) These are the never-told-before stories of the ( Read more... )
