business option?
is that the same as information systems?

SPIDEY

actsci 221 is like grade 11 math... heehee.... actsci 231 requires some thinking....... or atleast that's what i've heard from ppl taking them.... heehee.....

4000 left for food or mods..... hmm........ if you put it that way, guess i'll be living off instant noodles to boost up my mod budget a bit... heehee........

SPIDEY

A change of topic a little bit,

any of you ever got a "programming" job during your co-op terms?

I had been trying to get one but the best I could do is like Web developer, application developer and stuff, I can never get into programming.....>_<

babychai

iTrader: (1)

i program web applications...does that count?

like learning management systems (ie. those web courses we have)
and little apps here and there of file/api/software inventory management

does that count? hahaha...
programming is programming...
if you call programming in C or mainframe programming, then no...
altho if i ask, i could land myself one of them mainframe jobs...
but that's no fun!

SPIDEY

Yeah web applications, I guess I was in web application last term too, mine was a system wirtten in PHP and perl..and the backend is using SQL server 7.....but mine is not a big application, a small size application for internal use..nothing special.

yeah that's programming but I guess I want to get into like maybe java programming and stuff. I had been trying to get a programming job but I think it's because I don't have any testing experience and my job experience are too web type of jobs, they don't want me >_<

hey babychai, what company did you work for last term? are you working for the same company next term?

babychai

iTrader: (1)

Hey guys.. been missing out on the action because of finals. Sitting in DC library right now. I'm guessing most of you don't study here much?

Anyhow.. speaking of tuition increases.. I was paying something near $2600 for my first term.. I don't even want to see my bill for my next term. I think my tuition nearly doubled by the time I'm graduating.

SPIDEY

doesn;'t DC close at 8 tonight?..I was in DP...had to move my stuff here in the labs.....coz they were closing...........

babychai

iTrader: (1)

i left DP...
yes DC and DP closed at 8....
DP is quieter and less smelly...

i study at DC during the school year when i am reliant on the wireless network...

i think i might head over to MC...

good luck on your finals guys!

2 down...3 to go!!

babychai

iTrader: (1)

yuck...MC has never been so smelly until now...
i went upstairs to the 4th floor, and there was already this peculiar smell in the stairway...
i opened the door and walked towards the middle row of classrooms and it reeked even more... Of course, it was decipherable that it was a bathroom smell (pee) and i wanted to walk further to get away from it...but when i got to ouside MC4059, i saw this puddle on the floor and then quickly diverted to another floor...

math guys are weird!

SedanBoy

iTrader: (6)

err...... umm..... eww........ luckily i didn't go to mc to study..... heehee........

SedanBoy

midnitie

Isn't there wireless in DP also?

Once again I'm in DC posting this.. uhh.. I think I should study instead of posting to the forums :P

I'm thinking of tinting my windows when I finish my finals..

SPIDEY

Oh yeah...weds and Thurs......
but they are only going to go thru the 1999 exam......
which is kinda no point coz the solution is already on the web...



haha that's a good motivation that would keep you going during the final weeks haha

when I finish final, I am going to go home and sleep like there is no tomorrow..

oh yea, and to see my gf

midnitie

Actually I only have one more final.. Thursday morning. So that's why I'm studying in DC right now..

babychai

iTrader: (1)

tinting

personally, if i knew more about tints before i bought my car, i would have gone 20 all around....35 is still too much sun...

SPIDEY

Got this from the OT forum....this is some crazy illusion.....they seem like they are moving right? but they are not...try to focus on a single one.....they are actually not moving...wow..haha now I am dizzy

SedanBoy

iTrader: (6)

if i had to pick only one mod, tinting would be it...... keeps the car cooler and give you a bit more privacy... heehee...

haha, now i'm dizzy too.... but i guess it wasn't the site spidey posted, it's more of the algorithms and terminology and code and and and and and and.... AHHHH......

i've been studying way too much... heeheehee

SPIDEY

hahaha.....algorithms and cs240 = hell...........>_<.....
I am going to fail....

our midterm was out of 100....ppl did so bad on it that they made it out of 80..and YET the average was JUST 60 %....so if thye didn't bell curved it I guess it would have been 40 % LOL...

Hey did you guys know Pink is on newspaper?

SedanBoy

iTrader: (6)

yeah, it was the same when i took 240..... the midterm was terrible so they belled it, but i think our class average was still under 60.... it was a killer midterm by shallit.... heehee.... who's your prof?

SPIDEY
