New Template!

May 8, 2009 hschin 3 comments

Finally got around to putting in a new template for my blog! I like it coz its really simple and clean. My blog template was long overdue for an update. Now that I have a new template, I might be willing to update my blog more often. :)

Edit: I decided to do away with the chat box in the new layout (not like anyone was using it in the first place). If you want to respond to my posts, just put it in the comments for the respective posts or you can tell me on twitter.

Here’s wishing everyone a belated happy new year and may you achieve all your resolutions!

I just got back from Calgary a few days ago so still taking some time to recover from post-NSLC withdrawal. It was such an awesome conference! I’ll write about it in the week ahead.

Merry Christ-mas!

Here’s wishing everyone a blessed Christmas! Remember to take time to reflect on the reason we’re celebrating Christmas. As I heard someone say recently, its ‘Christ-mas’ and not ‘gift-mas’.

“For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.”

- Isaiah 9:6

Finally! An update!

December 26, 2008 hschin Leave a comment

So finally i decide to update my blog again after nearly a month. Exams were ok for the most part but my math was an absolute disaster again. Just hope I can pass the course and not have to do it a third time again! If not, I might just switch to computer engineering to skip all this dreadful math.

Now i’m in Toronto at my dad’s place enjoying my rather short 2 week break before school reopens again. Christmas is a rather quiet affair, which is good, as everyone else here seems to be rushing around buying gifts and such. My current favorite Christmas song is “Mary’s Boy Child” by Boney M. Quite an old song but i’ve been hearing it quite often on the radio and have taken quite a liking to it.

I wish my whole family was around to celebrate Christmas together though. My Christmas last year was so much more fun with the whole family. Remember to treasure the times you have with your family as you never know when you won’t be able to be with your family, especially if you’re about to graduate and don’t know where your job will take you.

Heading off to Calgary on the 27th for the National Student Leadership Conference organized by IVCF. Looking forward to that!

I’m still here!

It’s just that i’ve been really busy. So here’s just a quick update:

First week of school was hectic to say the least. Spent most of my time getting from place to place trying to get my admin stuff settled. Lessons are still ok since they have just started. There’s still no snow though. It was so warm I could wear a thin windbreaker to school last week. Today the temperature just dipped to -10 degrees in a day. So the weather is weird. I have a headache. It is late. I have to go sleep. I have early lessons tomorrow. Sorry for the short post. I hope I can find time to update this week.

Online registration for courses at McGill is taking forever…

Edit: Turns out that the problem is with my internet connection. After it was fixed, things sped up and every thing’s fine now.
