Anyone Reading My Blog Out There???????

Posted at 5:52 PM, Monday, November 6, 2006

I'm putting in this entry to find out if I have a reason to keep updating this blog or not. Well, it's obvious isn't it? If no one reads my blog anymore, then perhaphs I might not update after this entry. If someone does read, then I might continue updating it. Of course I haven't been updating it regularly (as always), but now that the exams are thinning out I'll get more time to spend on my blog. Anyways, moving on to a topic more worthwhile to read, we had a Dean's Quiz competition in the school of IT. Dean Kah made the arrangements and informed the students that were to participate. We were even filmed while the competion was going on! At first I was aware of the camera so I wanted to look ok and not do something horrible with my face, but as time went on, it was hard not to forget there was a camera around. Information Systems majors were given a problem on creating a database for the university's cafeteria. The computer science and Software Engineering majors were given a different problem (define and explain some terms using Alice or something, don't know Nino and Hamman were there so they would know better). I got more and more confused as time went by, because I thought the business rules were not very clear. I'm sure I must have done strange expressions with my face (that will definitly make me look bad on camera). All the same, who cares how I look on the camera, as long as I got my database right. Eventually we got to finish the database. Of course it wasn't complete but our time was over and that was the best we could do. A few days later, I was informed that no winners would be announced because of (ahem) time constraints we had in doing the database. I thought maybe the database we (the IS majors) created were so bad that they couldn't even be graded, haha. Anyways, it was a really cool experience all the same.

 

Eekk, I still have a Java homework to complete, so keep reading cos I'll keep updating  Thanks and God bless!

It's good to know that people are reading. Thanks for your comments, and really am sorry I didn't post any pictures of the new campus yet. Actually the exams and quizes kept popping up all at once that I had little time to do anything else. Thank God I have a little time to myself these days that helps me to work on getting the pics soon. God willing, my next entry will have pictures of the new campus. Thanks once again for your comments and God bless.

Is your school now an Apple computer campus? How will you compare the iMac to the PC platform?

Well, how was your end of semester's exam? From your past records, one need not fret on what the result will be because I see you as a very serious student. Anyway, merry Xmas in advance. I am still interested in your school Newsletter.

First of all, Merry CHRISTMAS! And happy new year in advance! Hope you have a wonderful time. Thanks once again for your comments, I appreciate it.
Talking about exams - all were good, and thankfully because of God's grace I got good results in all my papers (& courses). Of course it wouldn't have turned out this well: I expected somewhat lower grades in one or two courses, but I ended up getting much higher, glory be to God! The semester did end peacefully, with a few disappointments though, anyways, I still need to go over to the public relations office today and I'll soon give a feedback on the school newsletters~sorry for the delay it's just super busy here :) Take care and God bless.
