In search for some interesting things to read and look at or do… I went to ITtutor’s forum. Looked into the programming section and answered a few questions. Later.. someone prompt me that he wants to add me to his friend’s list. I accepted and added him to my list. I asked “Who art thou?”, he said we one of the members of the forums and sees that I frequently post in the programming forum and wanted to ask a question about programming. The question was about embedding excel, word and some other stuffs in Visual Basic 6. I had never done it, so I googled it. Quite nice info. Helping others help me learn something too.

Also searched for a “How To” in writing a resignation letter. Found one in ITtutor and a site called i-resign.com, oh and a few samples at About.com.

Printed a few info about Python and Java from dirtSimple. I need to review a few great codes written out there, which is a way recommended by Richard Gabriel in his artiview about the Poetry of Programming. Found a few snippets of code from daniweb.com. Hope I have some free time to review each one of it. And remember! Lots of nice code in Activestate’s Cookbook.

Winding road, hot brazen sun..

Arrived home at approximately 7.15am. Went straight back to home, body is smelling.. feeling uncomfortable from staying up all day at the office. Took a bath right away and went back to the office (different clothes of course!).

Surfing the web as usual, collecting information.. hiring mercenaries, training citizens to become soldiers.. stumbled upon an unusual website with Battle Monsters. PDFGen, creating PDF using python. Cryptography site for visual basic, c / c++. Amyuni Technologies’ have some nice apps that need to be look into, if i have the time. I also looked into PDFlib, in my quest to search for one API to rule them all. hehe.

Suddenly I became active again in ITtutor’s forum. Have something to do now. To be continued..

Things to Ponder…

Nothing much is of any interest happened few days back. I came to work.. tried to finish it up but got distracted with my other goals (browsing through Construx’s site).

The thing that i’m coding is enabling different IC Format (Malaysia and Indonesia) in Family, Spouse section of ep2p (HRMS). Faridz added another section for me to do in CV. Lack of enthusiasm, demotivated and lots of other factors really affect my productivity. I dont think the concept of friendliness applies here. People only treat you nice when they need something from you(applicable to my senario, not every senario). *Sigh*

In my journey, I stumbled across a familiar article. Hrm.. from now on I must document on what I’ve read and review on what i’ve gone through. Oh, almost forgot. I also came across a nice tool made by Construx about software estimation, its called Estimate. nice… spleeendid.

Down with the fever…

I struck with a fever / cold / flu. I dont know whats the appropriate or precise word to call it. Hrm.. this is just annoying but still reminds me of healthy days and never to take it for granted. Surely the world work in mysterious ways only known to Him. Gonna go home and take a rest.

I thought the interview at Bukit Jelutong Tech Park was today, but was mistaken. It wrote on the email 19th Feb 2005, oh well, my mistake (must pay more attention to details, hoho).

Today…. I got paid. I didnt feel any different though. Struck down by fever this morning for sleeping the whole today yesterday(20/02/2005). Woke up with a headache at 7.00pm. Somehow I subconsciously didnt want to get up until my body started to rise in temperature caused by the blazing evening sun.

Getting paid really doesnt change much of what I feel towards this company. It left scars of hatred and strife. I dont think it will heal anytime soon.. unless the boss reward me with something worthwhile. Hrmm… I wonder what was it like in the old days where knowledge and wisdom is treasured above the rest. Where teachers and gurus are treated with proper respect. Not which we have to respect people who uses the title of a teacher but doesnt behave like one.

I think i’m not going to go home today. Lots of stuff to do. I’m trying to finish a program that encrypts and decrypts databases using DES algorithm (just download the module that is available on the net). Oh yeah.. and that cookie thingie that i’m supposed to pass to the owner tomorrow. So much to do.. yet so little time. Actually.. there’s lots of time, its just that I’m not efficient enough to make good use of it. Sleep, and other routine stuff should be routine. If the routine is broke, chaos spills through. Well.. off to work.

Today, i went to bukit jelutong technology park in shah alam to look at the place where my interview will be held for junior programmer position in EFFICIENT MAILCOM SDN BHD. The place is quite secluded, no public transportation available at the moment. I think i should inform them that I cant attend the interview, unless they provide a shuttle service at the Komuter station. Well.. I can get to the place with a cab, but how the hell am I going to go back to the Komuter station. So far.. *sigh*. There’s lots of advertisement in The Star (19/02/2005) today. Have to check it out.

I’m always in a search for answers about things that I dont understand, especially human behaviour, or how the society works.. or how certain people get become what they are today. The term fuck buddies (FB’s), becomes *known* to me when I read the Star (19/02/2005) about women are up to par at cheating like men or something like that. I know a person(she) who lives like that. The end is nigh!

I’m at the office.. copying a few files to take home to the laptop and do some research / reading about it. The inventory system that i’m working on will be using SQLite as database and will be encrypted. nice nice. New things are always welcome in my kingdom. Preferably good things. Going back at 10 pm. Sore - ja

Hmm.. I’ve returned to this forsaken office. May a huge boulder slams upon it when i’m not around. I’ve watched Constantine. Its nice. The action is good. My office mate said its slow. Maybe his brain cant comprehend the content of the story. Go watch stuffs like hindustan and other crappy movie, you moron!.

I still havent got my pay yet. This company is a hypocrite, or maybe its the boss. For crying out loud, its a HR Consultancy company! Hrmm… Maybe that’ll be more words tomorrow. Sore ja!

Still no pay. I got support from my aunties but till when? Day by day, my enthusiasm to work is reduced. Hrmm..

I’m near the end in BG2: TOB, gonna fight Balthazar today.

I’m doing quite a few side projects. For students and other people.

Anyway, my mind is quite blank. Not as vocal as other entries. Maybe its due to the lack of money in my wallet. I dont know.. maybe its other factors. Gah! I cant stand it but still I endure. Maybe I took Dakkon’s word too seriously. “Endure, in enduring grow strong”. Haha..

I downloaded naruto ep 120 and Monk season 3 episode 12 to watch at home.

My supervisor told me, that we should go to the boss tomorrow and ask him why we havent receive our pay yet. Might be a weird day tomorrow. I’ll brace myself for it. Sore ja.
