Hello? Is... is this thing on? The red light means it's on, right? Or do I... I have to push a button, don't I? Well, which one? There's like ten! The black one? They're all black!

    Motorboard hats look really stupid.

    I got a reminder of that on Thursday, when I officially graduated from York University. But, as I was walking back to the car with my family, BSc in hand, I realized something. Maybe they're supposed to look stupid. Because I was wearing the bloody thing with pride. And if I was wearing something that stupid with pride, then I had to be really proud of myself.

    I don't know how many of you have been following the New Horizons mission...

    ... but I have. And the stuff it's sending back is super exciting.

    So There, They're has been canonized.

    "It's amazing how much you can pick up when you're actually in the book!"

    Please excuse me while I giggle like a schoolgirl.

    Time to celebrate all things circular again.

    And today's a very special pi day indeed. On a related note, I'm attempting to post this as close to 9:26 and 53 seconds as I can.

    So, yeah. Grab some pie, doodle some circles, calculate the radius of the universe or something. The sky's the limit on pi day.

    Today's a special day.

    Because starting today, I can go waltz across the border into the United States, walk into the first bar I see, sit down, and order a beer. And nobody will be able to do anything about it.

    Then I'll stare at said beer awkwardly after remembering that I hate beer and don't drink. And then quietly ask for a virgin screwdriver or something.

Just because I haven't updated anything in a while · 3:24pm Feb 1st, 2014

It's that time of year. You know, that time of year when you suddenly realize that you have four assignments due in the next week, and three midterms the week after.

Fortunately, I'm mostly through that. I have been writing steadily, mostly working on A Simple Reflection, tweaking the two unpublished chapters until I'm satisfied with the flow of them, and doing my damndest to get the thing on Equestria Daily. I have reasonably high hopes in the respect, if the pre-reader's last response was any indication.

Bronius' absence has been a slight discouragement, but not a huge one. The chaps over in the IRC have been useful enough in providing second opinions for the moment, and in ripping apart my newer chapters for grammatical technicalities.

Long story short, I haven't exactly been writing up a storm, but I've been working steadily.

Also, I'm coming up to 100,000 views across all my stories. That's a huge milestone, more so than breaking 300 followers, and I'm trying to think of something suitably appropriate to do in celebration. Maybe I'll endeavour to have my new, most ambitious project to date released close to that time. Or I'll release a video that I might make with a few of my university buddies, which would mix Diet Coke, Mentos, subzero temperatures and a lot of messing around with chemical kinetics. Not pony-related, but it's SCIENCE, so I'm sure you can forgive it.

Anyway, I'd ask you to sit tight, but those of you who've been with me a while know to be patient.
