Random ramblings. My current blog project is an introductory guide to the University of Waterloo.

Guide to UW

As I am a computer engineering student, any information I have will focus on my program. However, the information is also applicable to other programs in the faculty of engineering, and perhaps useful in general with regards to UW.
