and then there was none

we had a senseless meeting today. haha. everyone was at fault somehow. we met and decided we couldn't do anything useful during the meeting. well alright we did look up some information online. it's regarding developing software processes. so anyway, the final decision was to come together again on sunday. after we do some proper homework. then we can have a proper meeting. we're in another group for another subject here. it's not that same old annual project group.

can anyone tell me what is the difference between a "Distributed Process" versus "Collaboration" these terms got me befuddled a while back. at least i *think* i got it sorted out a bit. somehow. thanks to nonsensical rubbish from YC. he'd always knew what was possibly the proper answer somehow. haha... i derived proper enlightenment under all that bullshit he said.

so anyway i'll keep this short. it's almost 3am and i've got an early lesson. friday routine.

i was working on this presentation slide (aka powerpoint) for a "seminar" next week. it basically means i have to present on my topic for 10minutes. to a small class. surprisingly, my partner was already done with his part. he emailed it to me already. gee. i'm slow. i'm impressed by his efficiency. he was handling 3 sub topics, whereas i'm working on 2. and compiling. despite his appearing to be somewhat aloof aka *simply bo chup* especially when he skips lessons (today's for example) and things like that. he seemed the lazy sort. i guess i was wrong about him. partially. haha... that's 'cos i've got a feeling he lifted everything from other places. and the textbook. =_=

ho hum... i'm doing research online and surfing like made. Google does not have everything i want. what a surprising twist of fate... Yahoo had a bit of useful stuff too! so apparently earlier on, i had over 15 tabs opened in my firefox. totally crowded. can't imagine how it would have looked like had i used Internet Explorer. my poor jammed up taskbar!

i'm almost done with one portion. so i'll leave the other after the lecture.

this is madness. the database assignments just keep coming! the assignment 4 just crept out sneakily. :(

oh and i was amazing! gosh i'm so full of myself. problem: 2 members of my group does not have a copy of the project specifications. why? because they didn't attend the lecture. and the specs is not uploaded online by the instructor yet. resolution: i just typed out 868 words. i copied the important bits of the sheet of paper into a word document. and i sent it out to them to read. how did i type? i placed the sheet of paper in front of my keyboard. and i typed without seeing the screen. haha... i just stared at the paper and typed away. XD tappity-tap-tap so happily typing! well ok, the result? i estimate 10% errors for which corrections had to be made. i love to touch type rapidly oh yes i do! *does the john travolta dance*

*i thrive on stress (more please!)*
