Education

Journal Journal: Look, another year.

Well, it's been a year since I wrote something here. Let me see... University is highly overrated. I learn more programming and doing stuff at work than what I learn at classes or assignments... but then again, I did learn something from assignments, but that's from the act of doing things, it's not like I won't get a chance to do similar stuff at work, or for my personal interest.

In the end, I wish employers won't pay so much attention to education levels, because they can be cheated (quite upset I failed that excessively difficult course because there wasn't a bellcurve with everyone cheating), and they don't exactly reflect what the person can do. Those employers who look specifically for high grades (and nothing else are definitely not looking at the right thing.

Experience is still important in the end. I am extremely grateful for the job I have.

Journal Journal: More about me...

Well, I claim to be a DJ, but I don't do much of it anymore, because I am too occupied with my job as a programmer and going to university at the same time. Oh well, that is too unfortunate, but I still get my dose of trance, house, and techno whenever I need, and of course, I run Linux, although I do have other Windoze machines at home... because I need to run games. I think game makers should do releases for Linux, even if they are quite hard to do... You want to know how, comment on this.
