I can't register, but it's because the registration server is down. Is it just down for me? Are hordes of students suddenly up at 6 am to steal my chemistry seat? It's a mystery, my friends. Okay, well, not much of a mystery, since it was also down from my house this morning on a different ISP, and uh.. second term chemistry. Not a big seller to first term first years. But you know. It's time for the paranoia dance!!!

4 days until the new skytrain! I know, I know, it's a frickin' toy monorail pretending to be a real subway, and it doesn't go anywhere I need to commute to, and it's been constantly delayed and mismanaged.. but I love it anyway! It's a fickle codependent abusive relationship which I will continue to pay good money for. Oh transit.. won't you love me back? Well, the new skytrain is a good start. Baby.

Open up, college registration! Lemme in! I give you good lovings!
