Man, I sure am busy!

I have been meaning to update for a while and this wont be the update I wanted to give.

For me this series is just a fun social event to get away from all the school work that never seems to stop piling up. If you go to any university or college in Ontario (im sure they'd let you participate if elsewhere as well), come on out to the last one at Ganaraska this sunday! All the information can be found here.
