Random thoughts....or are they really random?

• I want to get an iPhone...because I want to try to learn how to create applications for iPhone...or at least know something about Cocoa (Touch).
  
• I want to update my site...but I am so tired right now, so I don't want to do that....YET.
• I want to get a job, but I don't know if I should really continue working next semester. Should I focus on my school instead, so I can get a better grade?
• I don't want to leave work yet...but I only have a bit more than a month to go...then I will miss co-op.
• I need to declare my BUS concentration soon, but should I really do MIS? or should I do Management Science?
• I want to get a MSc or MBA, but I wonder if I have the energy to continue a few years later...or will I even meet the requirement?

Less than 2 months of Co-op time

My time at Business Objects (as a developer) is running out. I only have less than 2 months in the office, then I need to say good-bye to everyone. =(

I wasn't so used to the place and people at first, but people are nice, and my mentor is willing to help me out. He might not be the best person to talk about personal things, but he is always trying to help, and trying to give me a chance to learn. What's more should I ask for?

This is my first Co-op job. This is also the first time I see a difference between what I learned in school and what people really do in the software industry. It's the first time I am able to merge what I learned in school to the real tasks that people need to do.

Perhaps I am a bit too quiet to tell them that I am feeling really thankful for them, but I do think that way.

I am glad I chose to apply for Co-op in the first place. Without this job, I am probably still confused of what I want to do in the future.

I am a quiet person, and I know that, I need to build my self-confidence. For some reasons, I always get so nervous for answering the question wrong...=S

iPod Touch SDK

I wish I have an iPod Touch, so I can play around with its SDK which will be released soon.

Interesting...interesting indeed.

Working hard

I didn't ignore this blog. =P

I was just working hard for my midterm....

I hope I did ok. hahaha

=)

Job hunt

I started to do my job hunting...

I filled in 80% of my job application....(I can't fill in the 20% of them yet).

I hope I can get a part-time job soon and I can start working in May. =)

In order to know when I am available to work, I decided what courses I will take already. =)

Learning strategy

I think I need a new learning strategy. I always take a long time to learn something. But then again...I think I am just not concentrating on my own work.

I always feel that, if someone forces me to do something, I can do really well. hahaha

I better change this...I lost my motivation! =S
