Adrien's Website & Blog

Wow, it's been a LONG while since I updated my blog. However, recently I've been working on a new project. It does also help me recycle my old machines by refurbishing it into a dedicated StepMania (DDR clone) machine. So how am I going to do this? Well, take a look at this sketch I made:

Well, it was an exciting day of course. Having Alpen Gamers on another day out is utmost exciting. We hit Pacific Mall and Market Village then went to Wasabi for dinner. As usual the service is crap, but the food was good. At Pacific Mall, David got his R4 cartridge for his Nintendo DS, Alex went and bought some daggers and Anna bought a red Mario mushroom for her keys.

Well, at least I visit my people at Alpen Games today. Wasn't too eventful, photo-guys and foods were shocked that I don't work at Wonderland anymore (apparently I knew more people than I thought I did xD). I finally finished my so called achievement since I finally got at least a Brazilian soccer ball. I got a Portugal ball for my bro as well. It was great.

Wow, couldn't see this coming, but it happened. I don't work with Canada's Wonderland anymore. As sad as that sounds, it doesn't come any later as I am leaving for Hong Kong on the 23rd of July anyways.

However, I will miss my great friends at Alpen Games, they are the reason that Wonderland is fun and I have every confidence that they will do fine without me. I'm just one part of Alpen Games, but they work as a whole, as a family unit.

I wish them all the best ... GO ALPEN!

Well, the 141st anniversary of our great country's foundation is coming fast (tomorrow) and what better way to celebrate Canada Day than to go out and have some fun. Canada's Wonderland is having fireworks display at 22:00 (10:00pm) right when the park closes. It's going to be a night of celebration. If you don't want to go to Canada's Wonderland, you can also opt for Victoria Park where fireworks are for sure going to flare in the night skies.

What an exciting finals game. With Spain winning (see this blog post for my predictions) the game and the thrill to see these two powerhouses going at it against each other.

Alright, it has been a month since the EUROCUP 2008 tournament started. It had united (and in odd cases might have divided) people together in this exciting game of soccer. However, no one knows who would eventually win. People thought that Russia, Netherlands and Poland would've won; but no, they all went down the drain. Both countries that I supported, Portugal and France both went down the drain as well. So what now? Well, we got Spain and Germany.

hat a whacky week. First my website goes down, now the week has gone by. Let's reflect upon it once again.

After an unsuccessful attempt to get the CGI scripts to work properly with the server after the hosting company swapped their datacentres, Movable Type started to act up. Thus, it was my best decision to just move the whole system to Drupal and drop Movable Type. However, that meant that all data was lost. However, I have backup HTML copies of the data.
