UOIT’s New Coat of Arms

I just wanted to share some great news! My university, UOIT, has finally showed off their new official Coat of Arms.

It consists of a falcon perched at the very top, with two horses bearing an upside down canoe and book.

You can check out the ideas and meanings behind it by clicking here.

I personally think its pretty good looking. Perhaps a bit too much blue, but I think it will be nice on my degree parchment this coming June ๐Ÿ™‚

Take care,

Sean

It’s been a while

Title says it all. I’ve pretty much been busy with my final year of undergrad…but it will soon be over in April!

Doing my clinical placement at SickKids is an amazing experience and I am having a blast.

For the 2010, I plan to continue shooting bands of course. I am keeping my fingers crossed for a few shows like Tegan and Sara.

Also, I am planning a signficant redesign of this blog and I am going to be adding more of my “science” interests and talking about health care and stuff as well. Why? Cause that’s what I do!!! And I will be sure to explain and do it in a way I know people who come to my site will enjoy.

Take care and see you in the New Year!

Best wishes,

The Phone Wars

First of all, I’d just like to say Happy new years to everyone who visits my blog! I hope your 2009 is a prosperous one.

As a new year begins, a new chapter opens…I have finally gotten a Blackberry storm w00t! I just love this device to death.

However, the choices and alternate paths to this decision was not easy to stray from. In this day in age, there are many well worthy gagets that would love to live in your pocket.

Just the other day, I had the opportunity to go to my cousins house where we compared four of the best phones on the market; the Blackberry Bold, 8900, Storm and Apple’s iphone.

All of these phones are nothing less of good craftsmanship.ย  Bold is a luxury business phone with its large QWERTY keyboard and sexy leather backing. The latest addition to theย  Curve lineup, the 8900 or “javelin” is what I think is a mini-bold in the body of a storm. The Storm is my baby. Its click-able touch screen plus all the legendary blackberry features like push email and BBmessenger totally sold me. Then we have the iPhone, the so called “phone to rule them all”, or so they say. I never liked the iphone or touchscreens in general, I was never able to type properly or i’d always open the wrong application.

What ever you do when thinking about purchasing a new phone or any new gadget of the matter…you should ALWAYS TRY IT OUT in store first! That’s what stores are for! You can read all the reviews and watch all the youtube demos you want, but in the end, you know yourself better than anyone else, you know what YOU want. So YOU play with it before buying.

***I got my Storm before Christmas and I am just loving every aspect of it. I know some internet reviewers have found things wrong with it, but from my experience, my Storm is flawless. I am a Crackberry Addict. ๐Ÿ™‚
