Ice skating

Last Friday Chris invited me along to ice skating, organised by (I think) the law society at his uni. I passed on the invite, and collected Laz, Sarah, Ann-Marie and Scotty along the way. It was the first time Ann-Marie had ice skated, although she’d rollerbladed before, and the first time for anything of the… Read more

We don’t need no stinkin’ C99

So, last Sunday was La Trobe’s Open Day. Rob & I volunteered (or were possibly conscripted… hard to tell) to present our project on the day. I figured it’d just be a good way to earn brownie points while doing work I should be doing anyway. :D As it turns out, because we were up… Read more

Hacking Google Maps

Axis & Allies

It was Rob’s birthday back on the… 18th, I think. I’m sure he’ll correct me when he reads this. Anyway, this year that was somewhat brushed over with project and whatnot, and I had my dad’s 50th that weekend so I couldn’t join Rob. He went to Darkzone in Box Hill with his sister and… Read more

Alco’s birthday

Last Friday was Alco’s birthday (party, anyway… not sure when the actual day is). Ben & Sverre hosted a gathering at their place, which I went to… I was tossing up whether or not to go, but in the absence of a tangible reason not to, I relented. I think I figured that with Open… Read more
