Last day at CLA!

Today was my last day, though I'll need to return for some admin work. It was very nice, the weather turned out just perfect.

11:20ish am I got there, put a few things down, check some mail and Mimi Tsui (my team lead) presented me with a very nice pen as a parting gift. Following that I rushed to Il Fornello on King to meet with people. I was fairly excited because Coral meantioned that her meeting has been shifted and she could join us!

We all met, including my friend Peter Kroll. He brought me a little surprise, seasons 1 and 2 of Startrek Next Generation on DVD! These weren't a gift though, just to lend them to me so I can rip them. Dinner was pleasant all around, and fun. I had a big surprise at dinner, Kelly made it down to eat with us! I didn't have much of a chance to speak with that side of the table however, but I really do appreciate the effort involved.

The next step was for Tomoka to help me with my notebook. It has been a while since we've been together so it was nice to hangout again. I know I decided to leave the Japanese OS on my system, but it has proven more challenging then I thought, mainly because of the Kanji. Tomoka was a big help, and I discovered 3 wireless networks inside my company, just around my desk! One of them was at least unprotected and we could surf right away.

I'm enjoying the notebook so far, but I haven't done much yet. I'm waiting to ghost the note book first before I really start doing anything else with it. From this point on, I will have a lot of time to devote back to myself. I plan on going to the work a broad festival downtown to see what kind of information they have to offer tomorrow.

It still is a hard habit to fill out my blog, but it is nice to look back to see what I've written.
