Riding a bike to school/bus stop 3 years ago

I’ve stopped driving and started biking and riding the bus and soon I’ll be biking all around without using the bus system at all. As tiring as it is, it’s also very fulfilling and it feels great when you’ve got the breeze running through your hair and your heart gets going.

learn C#

Started learning C# 3 years ago

I’m taking a class this semester on C# and so far I’m loving it. In the past I’ve always really hated IDEs, especially Visual Studio, but 2k5 is really nice. The special comments feature combined with how sleek Intellisense has become has prompted me to give VS a second look, especially in regards to C#. Before I started this class I began teaching myself C# and was doing all the code editing in Vim, but have since switched to VS2k5. Hopefully after this class I’ll be able to continue on my own time and start some projects I’ve been wanting to do.

discover more good music using last.fm

I have been a subscriber and user of last.fm/audioscrobbler since before the merger. 3 years ago

If you are curious what type of music I’m interested in my profile is a pretty good indicator since I have almost 20 thousand trackplays. http://last.fm/user/Tristor

Can anybody recommend a good set of 5.1 surround speakers under 100 bucks that either come with extremely long cables or are wireless? I’m going to try to setup my room for surround sound since my new system will have surround (I’m stuck using a laptop right now) and I have never done this before.
