Been a while, eh?

Well, yeah, end of the fall semester was the last time I wrote something here. That doesn’t mean that I’ve done nothing in the meantime, but been really busy at work and not so busy in university.

On another note, I’m really looking forward to this summer. It’s going to be a hell lot different from the past ones for I’ll be working as a full time intern at MS. Which is cool, I’m happy. It’ll also be great because for two straight months I won’t have to care about school and therefore in the evenings I’ll be free to do whatever I want to do. There really are a few things I have on my to-do list, e.g. learn Java and/or Perl, learn a lot more about infrastructure, build my calendar-slash-todolist app, maybe do a bit of operating system development, and such things.

I’d also really – and I mean really – like to spend some time experimenting with JavaScript, HTML5 and CSS3, to see how far one can push it. I don’t have a clear idea so far as to what I want to do, but I know it’ll be big. I’m thinking good graphics, fast responses and all-around awesomeness and last but not least some seriously wicked code. (Btw, this last one is getting quite a daily practice as I learn more and more at work. You guys wouldn’t believe the kind of code I’m sometimes writing and the hacks that do things no one intended them to…)

So that’s about it. Web development 24/7 with a bit of school every now and then. Oooohhh yeah, I almost forgot to mention… :) The best part of this semester is Erlang and Prolog. I mean DAMN can those things simplify matters. Also they are a very different breed of languages than C# or Java, therefore it takes almost a day for me to get used to them. But still, I’m like a little boy with his ice-cream at those times. “I’m lovin’ it!” (McDonalds’)

End of story.
