The past week has been extremely hectic, and the workload would only worsen in the upcoming week as the closing of the semester draws nearer. I’ve finally managed to more or less complete one of my ASP.NET project, which required me to create this web application that that is somewhat similar to the functionality of MS Outlook; a corporate information manager whereby a user can create appointments, tasks and send memos to each other. All that is left of it is some debugging which I will go through with my teammate this Sunday.
My other two projects however, are dead in the water. Coincidentally, both of them happen to be applications for a mobile device, one to be done in J2ME, the other in VB.NET. The problem with developing mobile applications is the lack of resource availability. It is as if these were some obscure arcane knowledge that one could only obtain from a dusty tome locked away in the library of some cultist keep.
Now that I’m 1/3 done, theres nothing like spending a Friday afternoon idly chatting away and then swearing constantly in a 2h 30mins long match of Company of Heroes to pamper myself after the long week. I always loved Fridays as it signaled the start of the weekend, and I declare Fridays to be a ‘no work day’. If you do realise, I’ve rarely stayed back in school on a Friday and I resent doing so. This Friday in particular, was a much needed break.
The situation is only going to deteriorate next week and get worst.
