PUERTO RICO's WARM WELCOME

ENDING PHP, GETTING INTO DATABASES

Will the despair ever end? I have been surviving PHP (with flying colors) but my incentive for ending it giving it all I have now faces a "not again". My next course is Intro. to Databases... And so, the torture goes on. I will try to be positive, thinking that this will recap what I learned more than 10 years ago when I completed my bachelor's degree. It's just another thing I hate but that I must do. I'll get over this in August when I get my diploma... All this whining has a purpose.

Updated some links in my resume site. Anyway, I have to create a new one as Geocities is going down soon. That's something... I have been using geocities for so long, and it is incredible it will all go kaput. Well... Cleaning up and copying files have been a trip through memory lane... Old sites, old pictures, old stories... So many things are making me feel old lately!

Anyway... The project for the next two days is updating the resume site as I am also actively seeking a job. And this needs to be perfect so honey entice bees. Let's see what happens.

RIGHT ON TO WEEK5 of PHP

So far, so good. The first three weeks were very difficult, but as people left the class and the ambience got more relaxed, these last two weeks have been more "bearable". Our final site is due on Friday... Next week is the last week. Glad this all went fast. I may be good doing programming, but I dislike it with fervor. Next courses left from the diploma will keep making me unhappy: Database, ActionScripting and Web Design II that mixes up everything. I wonder what you get to do in the Portfolio course, besides the obvious (it is the last one to get the degree).

Soon I will list all my demo sites in here. I need to upload in a storage area first, ad I'm figuring out if I'll go with a free service or if I'll actually invest in my own... I'm tired of the hassle of moving from one free space to another, especially when so many don't allow ftp... I'm glad the generic one that I just found does. So far it seems a nice place... We'll see. I have to load 4 sites over there, so I'll be entertained for a while(sites of friends: Steve, Mark, my old hobbie site the Hive, and my professional site... sites done in classes will go to a demo space elsewhere).

Recently discovered Little Airplane as a company. Wow. That is my dream place for working... Creating art everywhere, surrounded by people that do that at all levels and actually love it. It is something I will definitively persue when I get the diploma. All positions require Flash, Photoshop and After Effects as core. I think I would be in 5th heaven.
