White1 to White6, Doomsday Melodies and Snitzel Challenge.

The title pretty much covered the three things I did.

I woke up nice and early at 8 (ARGH why!!!) and again determined to get something done. As luck would have it, one of my group members for cryptography popped online and asked me about setup up the cluster for the lab . After an hour or so, the computers in the White lab (there's Black and White labs) were all connected to the hub network, hence enabling a successful smurfing attack! Happiness++. Now all I need to do is the attack question.

After lunch, I wanted to work on my thesis A report, which to my horror was due on the 10th October! But my eyes were already tired from this morning so I went to play some violin. A tune's been haunting me in my dreams and it comes from the soundtrack - its called Tears in the Dam (Right-click to save), from the Melody of Oblivion soundtrack (the anime was crap but the soundtrack is hauntingly good). Without knowing it I had spent the entire afternoon playing songs from it. I'm sure my music teachers over the years would have been delighted to know that I've been using the years of classical training to transpose anime soundtracks!

Having lost track of time, I left myself barely enough time to get showered and hop out to dinner at 6. I made it though, bumped into some old friends at Wynyard and then the gang from Whitesmiths showed up. By gang I mean all the 'kids' under 25 at Whitesmiths - Emma, Geoffery + Girlfriend, Yuliana, Edmond (one of the second year coops), with the exception of Agnes who didn't come! Sunny and Margaret were away at uni games.

We went to the Bavarian Beer Cafe for the Tuesday night Chicken Snitzel Challenge. Got fat. That was pretty much it :) We disbanded quickly after a quick stop at Krispy Kremes for Emma (that girl definitely has a sweet tooth!). As for me, after the accompanying schnapps (it was stronger than I thought it'd be) I wasn't up for a long walk across the bridge, so I trained it home...and fell asleep soon after.
