Thoughs two years later

So here I am, two years later with the exact same questions that I have had for the past two years. I work at one of the big 4 accounting firms, on their Intranet Portal. I am still a big brother, and not much has changed in my mind. I have been frustrated for the past two years because I want to do something more, and I feel like I'm just waiting.

Waiting because changes happen so slowly. A house is not built with one brick, and a life is not shaped in one day. So as I continue to make the big decisions of life, I hope that as I go, the bricks that I lay will be on the rock. Yes this is very vague, but my dad always says, "if you always do the right thing, then you'll never have any regrets and you'll be fine in the end."

Long walk

Tonight I went for a long walk in search of answers. It took me two and a half hours to get home and I don't know if I got what I was looking for. Instead I found some other things. Which is totally fine with me.

The question I wanted to have resolved when I left on my walk was 'Will I work in the computer field when I'm finished school, or will I work in the social services field when I'm done school?' But really, the original question was flawed.

First of all, life is not a destination, but a journey. All that means is that the notion that you find a job and then are set for the rest of your life is somewhat dillusional. People change jobs multiple times throughout their working lives.

Second of all, the question is based on the notion that working in social services is what I should do because it would help me relate the brokeness of the human condition through contact with the homeless/less fortunate. However, that notion is also flawed because the brokeness of the human condition carries throughout all walks of life, all the way from James Norrie to Sister Joan. There is no escaping it, but you cannot go anywhere without seeing it. Even at the BBQ store it is there.

I find myself asking many people what they think of various choices about what I should do with my life. No one has given me a satisfactory answer. I suppose that it is one of those things that no one can figure out for me.

Only one question is left, "What would You have me do with my life?"

and until the answer comes, I will just wonder. Tomorrow is another day.

Final assignment/exam/my comments

So It seems that this final assignment is due this week. Hopefully i'll be done by the end of the day so that I can concentratate on my exams that are worth a large percentage of my marks. This project is alot of work for not very many marks.

On the whole i think that this class has been alot of work. It seems that alot of the work is in the write up of what we have done in our assignments. Any ways, it seems that now i am procrastinating and should probably get to work on the final.

Presentation is done (the big presentation)

Man, I'm so glad to be done the presentation. I think it went pretty well... But I guess time will tell. Now all that's left to do is the take home exam. Which I'm sure will not be that hard. It will be ace-able because we have alot of time to work on it. The good news is that the bulk of the work is done, the bad news is that the only thing I have left to do now is exams.

USABILITY?!!?!

So here I am... Wondering... Waiting... because I don't want to start my final report until I know how I did on my usability study. DID I make any mikstakes? Will she take marks off if i make the same mistakes as in the lab?! How will i know what to change for the final report???

KazaA

By accident I downloaded KazaA and shared the wrong file!!!
Foolishly I had a file named Credit Card.doc that contained all of my valuable information such as credit card number, social security number, my hsx.com password and a picture of my sweet old grannie.

Long story short I am never going on the Gnutella network ever again... and never again am i going to spread gnutella over a toasted bagle or piece of celery.
