I was watching Star Trek IV on Space and then the channel died :( booo. I guess I should sleep.
Anyone doing anything exciting in Toronto today?
I’m bored.
All things Grebel (with minor overlap to just uw)...

penny event - “sex machine” (I’ll upload a picture sometime)
Playing capture the flag on campus, then heading back to grebel, running in to people and heading off to someone’s house in the country for a bonfire with grebelites. Good times!
1. Hah. I remember that.
2. Yea… CTF… That was fun. We should have won, too! But some jerks claimed you were...
I just came off a 50K bike ride through Toronto (via Scaroborough, The Beaches, Waterfront, Downtown, and back).
I’ll get a map up soon
Mmmmm
I love the brisk smell of a Toronto spring. Haven’t experienced it in the longest time.
I wish my marks were in already… Only two so far :(
This time last year
I was at Pearson airport, waiting to board flight AC001 to Narita Airport.
That was a fun co-op term.
Bye Waterpoo
I’m gone for (pretty much) forever, barring the few visits.
Done!

This link is for those who wish to have a physical copy.
The Great Bloomers are an indie band from Toronto, Ontario and a couple of the band members went to high school with me.
They just released their new album on April 21st and I’m a pretty big fan of it.
I highly recommend it!

i believe the term for this is overpackaged fucking dumb. who buys one egg? or one slice of ham? or one freaking banana? or one lime?! one miniature lime, no less. if you’re only buying one lime, you’re either batshit crazy or you’ve got scurvy.
Japan is crazy sometimes :P
Sometimes? :P
The reason they’re selling it one at a time, though, is because it’s...

====== Ridiculous story here ======
I think it’s hilarious that I just finished reading the FML website, and then I come to tumblr to find this story and it read exactly like the ones on FML :P
Except it’s not my life that fu**ed
I got free Starbucks today
But I also had the strangest experience getting it. I swear, today is National Get Out of Jail Free Day.
First, I get onto the iXpress in the direction of Uptown/Cambridge. At the Laurier stop, a young 16 year old girl and her friend board the bus and sit next to me. They proceed to talk about how they are on the run from the cops, they’ve been in jail before, and how they have a $10,000...
Done son! I'm out!

Text to speech in multiple languages (English, French, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, etc.)
I had way too much coffee today… Not cool.
I had both super awesome coffee (thanks Nathan and Misato!) and some kinda nasty americano.
I miss biking in Japan →
That was fun… 34KMs of fantastic bikeage.
The weather was phenominal! It was 28°C with humidity on top (I actually like biking in that kind of heat) but the wind was too strong, especially along the run along Tamagawa river.
I also played a game of cat and mouse with a bus… That was actually scary
Route: Ebisu -> Naka-meguro -> Komazawa Dori Ave -> Nakamachi -> Kaminoge...

I wish I had known about this earlier!
A friend of a friend of mine created it. It looks fantastic and has great functionality!
Grande Matcha Frappacino with two shots of espresso for the win.
HAPPY FIRST 20°C DAY OF THE YEAR!
I am WAY too sore from yesterday’s 4+ hours of ultimate.

I’m excited for Portland <-> Seattle <-> Vancouver.
I’m disappointed Toronto isn’t left out of the fun, though.
