It's OK, I'm a Chemist

Sunday, December 17, 2006

Just a shout to say I'm heading home to Montreal after my first semester at UBC. I'm a little drained now - might be from the shotluck party last night or from a full semester. I will be taking the train home so don't expect to see me on line or responding to emails the next few days. I'll be home the 21st. It's going to be nice.

I feel like passing on this popular meme (lab reports be damned, THIS is important work).

The Soundtrack to my Life
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle/Random
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
