real starz?

i just checked out the real - starz website and found out that the claimed-to-be 1.5Mbps bandwidth qwest is providing me worths only 500mbps and less on their website. what that means? that means i am not able to use their new venture of movie downloads... *sigh* probably i need turning to those online dvd rental sites... oh well, may be that's good for me for now, since i don't think i'd enjoy a movie on my 15' monitor. on the other hand, i think i'm gonna busy again soon with my enrolment of c++ certificate course at uw. with my recent job change to an sde, i'm pretty comfortable that they'll accpet me to the game development program. but since the company is paying the tuition, why not taking it?

went to the green papaya on sunday. the food is just okay... not that surprising... it's similar to those viet restaurants on rainier ave. also tried a 33 beer imported from vietnam. comparing to other beers i had before, this is for sure ranked to the bottow few... talking about beer, i really wish the ontarians can export their creemore here!!! this is the best microbrew i've ever had.

i have decided not to join the choir next year... a sad decision but i really want to get some rest... two weekly ministries (small group and choir) is way too heavy to pack into my chaotic schedule--i'm not even talking about a work and life balanced schedule here. but i certainly missed the choir already. i am sure i will get to learn the lyrics from another perspective.
