Two weeks ago my friends invited me to go clubbing at Republic. Was definitely a good time. I highly recommend Republic Saturdays. Good times.

I finally completed my COMP 8006 course. The one course that had me pulling all those all-nighters to finish assignments that I was given adequate time to complete. The last class was yesterday morning at 10:00AM. Our final assignment was literally an assignment that required us to look through an assortment of logs and write a report on your findings. Yep, that’s right…freakin’ log files. And no, not just one log file, 1GB of LOGS. 1GB of TEXT! I never realized how many kinds of logs existed until this final project took a hold of my life. There were CRON logs, System Logs, Boot Logs, SNORT Logs, httpd access logs, httpd error logs…the list keeps going. That list also included Windows logs. The main objective was to look at logs from 3 separate networks and determine what occurred. For example, in one network a 3proxy exploit was performed, which allowed an attacker to cause a buffer overflow to a system and run arbitrary code, thus taking control of a system. Too much things too describe which I didn’t even know were possible.

Our instructor gave us adequate time to complete this final project. One month, to be exact. So when did I choose to start it? About one week ago. I hardly got anything done within that week though. So, it boiled down to this. I stayed up on Thursday night all the way into Friday morning (6AM to be exact). Got a good portion completed and then decided that rest is an important thing. I woke up at 2PM and worked all the way until 8AM the next day. Went to Richmond to meet up with my friend Travis to get our projects bound together. Finally got to school at 10AM to successfully hand in the final project and complete my final (which is another story altogether). Ah procrastination, you got me again you little devil you. Anyways, the course is done! Pulling this all nighter to complete the assignment brought back those stressful memories of BCIT. Finishing a project under pressure, as well as not seeing your friends, EVAR! Those were the things I DID NOT miss from being a full-time student.

Anyways, after the final, I went to Earls with Christina then decided to go home. I unknowingly passed out neglecting the fact that my friends were to come later and I was supposed to open the door for them. Not a good idea to forget your friends. Let’s just say jumping up and down on someone’s bed is the best way to wake them up.

Ahh well, just happy that course is over. It’s too bad I already start school tomorrow . No breaks.

Ohh and on a side note, I bought a legal copy of Starcraft. Yeah, I know ghetto. My friends got me into it.
