Ali’s Life

Ethan and I have a busy weekend ahead of us. Tonight we’re meeting with friends from our Patrick’s Trivia Night team to spend some of the loot we’ve won over the past few months. We are currently in second place behing the Endless Enigma, I believe.

On Saturday I am heading to the cities to attend an information session about The U. of MN’s “college of continuing education” to try and figure out what I’m going to do with these courses I’m taking. I want to do something that will help me in my current career path (such as get a masters or certificate of advanced study in a foreign language) without disrupting my actual JOB at GAC. We shall see what happens.

While I’m at my info session, Ethan and his co-sys-admin/friend Dan will be attending an Asterisk User’s Group thing. It is something realted to voice-over-IP phones, but beyond that I don’t know a lot. But they might be presenting on what they are doing here at GAC with VOIP.

On Sunday I have a hockey game up in Blaine. It is the first “real” one of the season. Should be fun, although I hope we have 4 defensemen this time, last time was a bit tiring. But still fun. Wish us luck! Wish me a good plus/minus!

So that’s about it, plus I should 学习中文 (study Chinese) some too. Oh, I put up my pictures and videos from China on my website. Check ‘em out! And have a good weekend!
