TIME : a commodity which we dnt always have..

well, i didnt have time to post over here lately, so i've decided to post somethng here..

This was a rather important week at uni, we have seen the election of the president of student council, a programming contest (in which am taking part..) organised by the CSE dept, and well so much more..

Am currently reviewing my java, and i got eclipse, well, i need to say, eclipse is really nice to use, indeed, it is very user friendly, and we will surely save time in writing the codes, while dodging silly mistakes such as ommited ; or a missing }.

During this week, i've also (and still am..) experience some health problems. Indeed, am having coughing problems, at first i thought they were just the regular coughs, bt, despite taking medecines, they don't seem to go..

My mum says, perhaps its "fraiser", bt i dnt believe so, perhaps its cause she doesnt know i smoke, well am pretty sure cigarette is to some extend the cause of it. Am seriously trying to quit. And this time, i'll try to quit definitely (Even though i wnt b able to use the Zippo(i looooveeeeeeee Zippos..) some1 gave me..).

On friday i met Rishi, an investigator from the University of London, he was conducting a study on child health in mauritius, and i was a volunteer to help in that study. Well, he announced to me that they were going to have a symposium to b held at LT1 of uom's NAC. He also told me, since i was the only guy involved with computer, i would be in charge to arrange all the logistics for the symposium, that is everythng from microphone to LCD projector (and ya i forgot..Rishi's got a superb mac book).Well that sounds promising and its supposed to b broadcasted on the mbc.

While i was re-discovering java, i need to say i literally fell in love with the language, its true that i did have a crush for her on our first meeting, bt then i met so many languages, and lately was introduced to Ruby, a real sexy young language, which would almost drive u mad about her..bt i didnt get time to admire her beauty, inner beauty that is..bt for the sake of the programming contest, i will try to b faithful to my new gf, java that is..

Been also watching for the 3 time the serial Stargate Atlantis, for the moment i have all of the 2 first seasons, waiting for the whole of the 3rd season to b available on torrent, and soon i'll be moving on nomad 128.

ah, while speaking of nomad..

Well, many ppl might argue that nomad it crap, hmm that is sometimes the case, bt, for the price u r paying, and for the technlogy used, we need to understand them..i currently have nomad 64 ,which it 24/24 and 7/7, except some rare downtime, the service is pretty decent..and i get a pretty decent bandwidth..there is anotherpoint to note here..some times, depending on the position of ur modem, i might get a very much varying signal, which is the case at my place, and this means u r getting signal from 2 or more antenna, which is very much possible..the prob here, when u are one a rather unpopulated antenna, ur connection is fluid, and u to downld around 5-6 kiloBYTE per sec, which is the norm, else, if u are connected on an antenna which are well populated, then surely ur bandwidth will drop. a solution would be to raise the modem to a higher point. or to contact the company, and they will send a technician which will modify the settings of ur modem, and assign u to a single antenna, the prob here, is that, if that antenna goes down for some reason, u go down..

well as from monday am moving to nomad 128, following a promotion at the university, i wil b paying half the monthly fees, which means its even cheaper than my current nomad 64 account. well, according to a friend who has done the same, there is much difference in the service, well let's hope it the same for me over here..more news abt it on monday..

well, am kinda tired writing now, and my nephews are very noisy, specially when they are just behind ur back and watching everything u are doing..(kids can b irritating..)bt still i love kids..
