Good morning people! Its 10:12am on my clock here. I was too busy to post anything yesterday, so I guess I would do a double post today, one for yesterday and one post later for today.
I woke up early around 7am yesterday to head for school. My ITE friends who are reading this might be wondering why I am going to school for our term holiday has already started!
Well to satisfy your curiosity, I’m going back to school to meet up with my team for a Java competition. However, what I am doing is confidential, so I can’t say much about it.
Everyone came except Benson, who was sick. Nithy (that’s my teacher in charge) gave us a run through on how the program is supposed to work.
The program is good and innovative, but it’s hard to program it! Some of the technologies involved are a little alien to me, but thank God that I’ve found some sources that helps! Praise the Lord!
Tried installing Sun’s Solaris 10 onto my VMWare but it gave me lots of problem. After a few attempts I gave up and opted to instead borrow the installation discs and install the operating system (yes it’s an operating system! Bet you never heard of it! =P ). At the time of this writing, Solaris is up and working perfectly! Praise God!
Half way through out the meeting, Nithy went for lunch leaving us to continue the work. I was troubleshooting some database on Joanna’s laptop, one of my team members, told me that Kelvin ( my networking teacher) was asking for my number from her in MSN. Didn’t I give it to him the other time? Puzzled about the strange question, I gave her my number and she relay it to Kelvin, adding that I was here in school.
Kelvin came to the lab that we were working in shortly holding a sheet of paper. He was looking for me and asked whether I am certain that I wanted to go and specialize in Multimedia, one of my courses. I was very certain until he started to lists out more about the pros and cons about it. By then my team members also came over to enquire about certain things.
What we and Kelvin said about is a little confidential. LOL
However, to my ITE friends, all I can say that seven people from our class had FAILED.
And those that left early during the networking exam claiming that it was easy FAILED. LOL.
Anyway, what I and Kelvin talked about did caused me to have second thoughts about both Networking and Multimedia. Kelvin told me to consider it and gave me a day to decide.
After the meeting is over we left the lab and I was still thinking about my specialization choice and what Kelvin had said. Was pondering what to had for lunch too when my friend Yik Loong suggested our school’s cafeteria. The rest of the team members wanted to eat elsewhere and I wanted to get over lunch quickly so I agreed to have lunch in school with him. =P
We departed separately for I had to pass something to my friend Wei Zhi. I went over to his house because his phone was down and to my horror of horror, when I arrived at his block, I totally forgotten which floor that he stayed on! Damn!
Dejected I took the train back home.
Back at home I played some games and did some studying and my mum instructed me what to do before she left for work. I just nodded in reply and went back to my studies. My brother shortly went to take a short nap and I too, tried to take one too but was constantly interrupted by the ringing from the telephone!
Frustrated I got up and resume my studies. Yeah in case you the reader might be wondering what I am studying despite it’s the holidays, its Java and C++. Call me stupid or crazy but I cannot slack and relax for long. I need to do some productive work! LOL.
Before I became a Christian I was not really that enthusiastic but it’s different now. =P
My brother woke up complaining he was feeling sick. I measured his temperature. 38.4 degrees. Wow!
Got him to rest back at his bed and gave him some water to drink. He fell back to sleep.
Later in the night my dad came back and wanted me to resume capturing the video that he took from China into the computer. I set everything in motion and took the laptop that the school loan it to me and went into the living room to do some web surfing while video capturing in process.
I decided to update my blog’s skin and praise God! I discovered this skin in Blogskins.com and decided to use it!
As I applied this skin to my blog, I realized my passion for 3D was still there (even though I did not know or do anything related to 3D up to this point!), so I’ve decided I will not change my previous decision and continue to go for Multimedia! When I am able to do 3D and multimedia stuff, I can add interactivity to it and therefore start to produce a short game!
Praise the Lord!
Whew. What a long entry huh. I don’t know why, LOL, but I like to type in the best English that I could mustered, therefore this long entry. LOL.
All right, I’ll end here for now. I’ll have another post later at night.
I thank you for spending your time reading my blog.
The Spirit of God be with you always. Amen.
