Tonight was the Molson Banquet, an annual end-of-year ECA event where you get to have fun and socialize with other Engineering and Computer Science Students. Although, the most important part for me is definately the awards. It was fun because by being involved in the ECA, you actually know what’s going on and understand the contributions made by students who receive awards.

Our own Skrud was well rewarded with two honours: Undergrad Contribution (faculty-wide) and “Coolest Nerd”. Ahmed also won an award for Undergraduate Contribution (CS/SOEN dept). However, no victory is as sweet as CCSS’s Society of the Year. This year’s executives (as those from previous years) put in alot of hard work for us to get this award. I’m really proud of us all and it was great that there were so many people there to share in our pride: Paul, Nat, Shimmy, Thien, Guillaume, and Louis just to name a few.

This award almost makes me forget all the frustrations I have had to endure so far, but Nat was there to remind me ;) . I wish good luck to next year’s executives and hope that they can come together and make us all proud.
