Of days and nights and mornings…

Been working through the night for the past 2 days. Today till 9am yesterday till 11am. Work’s been good I think. Progressing well thank God :). Still quite a lot a bit left that I hope to finish before this coming Thursday for the regualr FYP meet-ups with my supervisor.
Note to anybody dealing with strings and characters in VC++ and things that the didn’t teach you in school (well at least they didnt teach me :P) here are a few things to note when dealing with them
Unraveling Strings in Visual C++
Article 3. Strings the OLE Way

Anyway for those wanting not to study here is CNN‘s 20 great jobs that don’t require a degree. Kind of makes me wish I saw things before studying haha. Nah.. I like what I do and enjoy the days I had/have in University. So I’m off to make the best of the days I have left by:
1) Finishing up projects
2) Studying (something that is severly lacking this semester due to projects)
3) Gaming (:P haha yup still play on our IES servers along with my own sessions of Quake 3 and Counter-Strike: Source and Warcraft 3)
4) AMX mod X plugin development (I have to say that this is indeed enjoyable to me along with game server administration)
5) Enjoying as much of my church and cell here as much as I can before I go back :(
6) Finishing up personal projects (like MintyMP3 after exams finish, or as how I like to call it “when time dilates” :P)

Okay people enjoy the week ahead as I continue with my projects :P

Skipped lecture today

To play Counter-Strike: Source. Same team what I played iPlay with. 16-0, 16-0. 3 teams and top 3 teams get prizes. Kind of sad that nobody else is playing. Most people are playing DOTA which I doint really have much interest in. When will there be more people playing CSS? :( When most default computer systems can support playing CSS probably haha :P Anyway should be getting the prize later.1 Razer Copperhead coming up =D Thanks giving to God that I get to know people like Reuben who led us yay!!! hehe Too bad I’m graduating this semester. Can’t play more :( Sad…. Anyway back to FYP. Restructuring some code to make things easier to extend and modify. YAY!!! FYP is fun again :D

Edit: Apparently they changed the prize from the Copperhead to the Diamondback Plasma Limited Edition. Kind of sad that they downgraded the mouse but hey its limited edition so maybe I should just keep it nicely in the box and let the price appreciate? :P Anyway still happy for the mouse :D Yay!!!

Dont want to study =p

Want to program. Was making a Perl script and converted it to a Windows Service over the weekend for the IES Games.net servers. Which reminds me that I need to check to check out whats wrong with my old AMX mod. Lazy lazy lazy.
Any programming done with respect to game management is fun to me. Want to do more of it. But alas FYP and TDE projects to do.
3 letter abbreviations are engulfing my life: FYP (final year project), TDE (Techonology of Digital Entertainment), AOS (Advanced Operating Systems), FNA (Financial Accounting). AAaaaahahhhhhhh school work. hmmmm could add ‘NUS’ to that list? ‘PGP’, especially PGP Block 10 TV room :P

Back to listening in lecture :P

Dont you feel hopeless at times?

I’ve been trying to do a Financial Accounting tutorial for over 3 hours now. It’s times like these that I just feel that my brain has hit it’s limit. I’ve taken accounting before during the O levels but for some reason none of the question makes sense. Have to submit answers later on today to the tutor as my group is presenting next week. Why wont my brain work? Why cant I understand? Well I do understand but I dont understand what the question is asking and its just getting tiring. It’s times like this that I just want to go into a little corner and cry. And to think I’m spending all this time on a freaking tutorial when I have more important things to do like my FYP and TDE projects… Man…. Panic mode setting in? I dont know. Why why why? Who knows? Because certainly I dont know much right now except that I’m going to wake up late in Friday afternoon that is IF I do sleep. Sad life I live.
