Week 888888888

Was an interesting 4 day weekend with its ups and downs. Went to the cinema with a friend to see The Lion King in 3D 17 years after seeing the original in 1994. On Bank Holiday Monday I was invited to a Light Party which is the opposite to a Halloween Party for Christians to come and worship Jesus and have a good time (without the need of alcohol to do that) was a brilliant evening plenty of good company to talk to we even had a Roman stop by and he decided to stay since it was much better than some club he was going to go to.

Tuesday

Surprisingly was not as tired as I thought I would be today as didn't go to bed till 2am this morning. The day started out really good for me with spirits high ready to take on the day.

Went to my first lecture with Colin Manning he spoke to me about my group (me being the only one present most likely due to the fact my other team members are recovering from the Halloween effect) our team really needs to pick up the pace as we are going to totally fail this module, I think I will have to input alot more since I turn up more often than most!

Hardware as usual was Pierce writing notes on the board from which we have suspected that he copied off the software program Labsim. He let us go half hour early as he ran out of notes. Went to the Canteen to meet with a friend until it was time for Trends In Computing. We had a spokesman from Bluematrix in to talk about what their business does, something to do with analyzing websites for how many users go on and amount of videos are watched etc... After the presentation we were let out an hour early. I went to the canteen and started on a Powerpoint for the UCC CU worship which my friend had asked me to do. Java was the final lecture. I was falling asleep in the first class not because it was boring but because I did not go to sleep till 2am previously. In the Lab we took a test on how much we knew our Java...40% showed me I really need to revise this subject I just pray I organize myself enough to get through the first semester ALIVE!

Later that evening went to the UCC CU and worked the powerpoint with the 4 songs chosen. We went to someones house to continue the fun of that evening and a group of us learned a new game involving cards and crops lol wish I had remembered the name. Didn't leave till almost 12am. In fact didnt go to bed till almost 3am that night!!!

Wednesday

Got up after only a few hours sleep but didn't feel as wrecked as I thought. Made it to the bus on time with my friend got to the CIT in high spirits from the night before. First class of the day was Hardware Lab what a waste of time. So started updating this blog and continued writing my CIT essay on Geolocation. Headed over to Web Fundamentals in B219 with Ingo he gave us the heads up about the up coming assessment next week. Met up with a friend for the 2 hours. We did some work in the canteen until it was time for CIT. Spoke to my team mates in CIT about our presentation. I said I would try and contact the foreign students to see if we can get one to join us also said I will make the privacy part of the powerpoint. Last lesson of the day was Networking again I was still getting lost in that lecture and falling asleep from the lack of sleep from the past two days.

Went to MedRen later that day we finally got to use daggers instead of just spears quite interesting that was. Went to bed late that night near 3am.

Thursday

Got up late so was rushing so didn't have breakfast. Got to college 5 mins late but it was Hardware class so didn't miss a thing! Had networking class with Denis Polley he talked about how much we didn't know yet. Met up with my friend for 2 hours in canteen to do some networking Cisco style. Trends In Computing was the next class we spoke about the next essay to be written and the project is to be on RFID technology. Final Lectures of the day was Java unfortunately the projector was on the blink so went over to the Labs to work on our Java challenges.
