Ok, I haven't updated for a while, shame on me.
Another semester at uni and things are starting to pile up in the to-do box
again.
Have some client/server sockets coursework to do an essay on Windows NT memory
management and also have to write a proposal for my third year project.
After all that is said and done, am still loving the uni life.
All signed and sealed on a contract for a house next year, can't wait to move
in next august, should be a riot!
Only one thing I’m slightly worried about. am moving in with 7 other people, 4
of which are computer science students and two more who are computer addicts,
leaving one person that doesn't fit into those two categories; Naomi! Being the
only girl this housing arrangement might also be fairly amusing for her, lol.
Am interested in buying a laptop to aid the process of my final year project. Have
seen a few I like but have taken a very keen interest in a couple of Acer
tablet pcs that can be used as laptops. Have noticed a couple of people on my
course have the model I’m interested in. Seeing it in the flesh kind of makes
me want it more, lol.
My final year project idea is to create a small business stock management
system based on scanning barcodes. A simple concept I think, but with
sufficient hurdles to warrant it being a final year project.
I want to make it multi-user using one database and cross-platform. I’m very
excited about this as it's my own idea. That isn't to say that there won’t be
some good ideas to choose from when the lists of final year projects are
published.
Am working this weekend at the 3 hares, and it will be a very welcomed cash top
up. Am finding the fiscal side of things tight to say the least. Have had a
couple of problems with accommodation which makes things a little more
complicated. Am trying to be pro-active with my money instead of having to
revert to bread and water when the money puddle dries up.
Well, as I always say I’ll try and update when I remember, but I do hope
no-ones been holding their breath!
