Once again, I've flown off to another country. But at least I'm in the same continent. =D I'm pretty sure I mentioned it before, whether it be on here or in person. I'm in NYC to present a paper I wrote that got accepted at the HFES conference. After weeks of preparation, including 2 practice presentations, I finally presented today. Unfortunately ( Read more... )

On vacations, I absolutely love trying new foods, going to a different restaurant every time, ordering something new every time, etc. Unfortunately, during this trip, it wasn't really an option ( Read more... )

I'm back and sorta have internet.... Not in my own room but I still get internet. I have gotten 2 hours sleep in the last 24 hours. couldn't sleep on the plane at all. anyways, to sum it up, my trip was.... it has its moments but overall, I'm not overly impressed with China. I did have fun (mainly during shopping) but a lot of it was still pretty ( Read more... )

Tomorrow morning (damned early in the morning), I'll be getting on a plane and heading to Beijing! Yes, I'm excited. But at the same time, scared out of my mind because of all the work that I probably should have been doing and didn't exactly complete. That's not to say I didn't do any work. I just might not have been doing the work I was supposed ( Read more... )

I can't believe I'm back in Saskatoon already. That trip was way too short. I was only literally home for maybe 36 hours, and this includes the time I was sleeping. It was definitely too short of a trip but it is what it is. I'll know better for next time ( Read more... )

Since I did a project on Alberta for class in elementary school (I think it was), I've wanted to go to Alberta. And even though I was so close to it for the last 1.5 years, I still hadn't gone. Well, lucky me, I finally got to go this year and just came back from the trip. It was such a hilarious trip. I don't think I've laughed that much in such a ( Read more... )

As I had mentioned in my New Years post (which was so long ago now, I can't believe it's already March), there was a chance of me going to NYC. Well, it's official ( Read more... )

So, I found out today that I'll be heading to Seattle! hehehe. Last semester, I applied to go to this workshop in Seattle (sponsored by Microsoft and Google). Today, I found out that I get to go! They're going to pay for transportation, food, accommodations, everything. It'll be a great trip. Since I'll be in Seattle, how could I not visit my SE ( Read more... )

Happy New Year ( Read more... )

Sigh... It's the final 2.5 weeks of classes. 4 more weeks until I head home for the holidays. I can't wait for this insanity to end. There is just too much to do this month. It's all manageable but it's still a lot of stuff in a short amount of time. And unfortunately (or maybe fortunately), majority of it is not coding. It's all reports. Reminds ( Read more... )
