Destination Regina

hugs, personal 1 Comment »

Yesterday, I accepted an offer to work at NetSecure Technologies which is a company based in Regina doing Firefox extension and C# work (mainly the former. I never worked with the latter, and they are aware of that). This also means I have to relocate to a city who I know nothing about. In fact, I will likely be a typical snobby Torontoian for the year contract that it is for.

Unfortunately I will be leaving my current employer PPX. Good people. But I am excited about my new job responsibilities, and think it will be a better fit for me.

Nuit Blanche

hugs 2 Comments »

Toronto was transformed at night on Saturday October 5th for some art thing called nuit blanche. Basically, it’s an event open all night with gallery’s across the city open for the public. Tom, Lucy and I spent all Saturday night and Sunday morning making trips to these exhibits, and had breakfast at 6-7am with Mike.

I was also surprised by meeting Armen there, and his brothers. It makes sense now.

While loads of fun (I didn’t know what we were doing when we met up. And I didn’t know how much I would enjoy it when I found out. But it turned out to be a great way to spend a Saturday night), I didn’t get home until later in the morning, where I crashed in my bed and didn’t wake up until 16:00 today. I didn’t manage to get any pictures because I didn’t bring my camera, but I did get a video of blinkenlights on my cell. They took over City Hall, and it was an entertaining light show. They also had it rigged up to play pong and tetris, but it was not well executed.

You can view the video directly in the browser if you had a browser that supports the video tag. You’re stuck with downloading it :)
