Welcome!

Well, since any idiot can have a blog, I figure I should be able to have one.

Let me start off by talking about myself. I'm a university student at the University of Waterloo (hence the "UW" in my name) studying Computer Science. I'm originally from Montreal (hence the "Habs" part), and have lived in Calgary as well (which doesn't appear in my user name, but it was worth mentioning anyways). I am a proud Liberal, and my interest in blogging sprung from there.

I first got introduced to blogging a few years ago, referred to by friends to various personal and political blogs. After a bit, I started keeping my own personal one (which even I find quite dry and boring to read), and I've continued to read some more famous political ones (my favourites include Calgary Grit and Capitalist Pig vs Socialist Swine, as well as browsing the RSS feed of Progressive Bloggers). Then a few months ago, I've started becoming slightly more than just a lurker, posting a few comments.

Now, I'm ready for the next step, keeping my own. What I will post about will come out soon, but my guess it will be mostly political, but I'll try to post on other matters as well (coming shortly, my talk about planets). That's it for now, and hopefully I'll start up with some real post in the coming days.
