One done, one more to go!

Done with my first thesis, but no time to celebrate ...

I wonder whose idea it was that we have to write two different theses just to get this boring bachelor degree. It's useless anyway! Out there (in the real world), companies still don't even know that there is something like a "bachelor". I guess, they wouldn't even consider hiring anybody with just "half a degree". The only advantage is that, theoretically, one can change university after bachelor and continue somewhere completely else. But that doesn't explain what we need two theses for. Well, can't be changed now anyway.

Right now, I'm in an internship with a research company. At least the work is interesting. Got a Kubuntu PC there. Made me want to install some Linux distribution on my laptop too, but - as I could have expected - troubles with the graphics card. Linux always needs 3 year old hardware. Well, it will get that soon ;)

... As soon as I get my master.

I think, that's just fair!


(K) I love you, Marko! (})

work @ arsenal

That's it:
I'm spending my holidays working... this month at ArsenalResearch.
There I'm the only Geomatics Pro. That means: They tell me what they want to visualise and I have to try to find a way how to do that. Mostly it's about modelling databases, webprogramming, somehow get coordinates and networks between the coordinate-pairs.
It's pretty interesting and I already learned a lot. It's like being paid for studying - great!
And the coffee is great. I love this espresso machine they have! Well, on Monday I'll get more of that stuff! ;)
Yours,
The coffee-addict

Projects

Ever "had" to work in a team?
Did you like it?
Did you work?
Or did the others? ;)

I'm no big fan of team work. At least not, if I can't choose the team I'm going to work with.
Well, at university you often don't have a chance. So, what do you do? Do you take the lead (and the work)? Or do you wait for the others to do something?
Unfortunately (?), I'm the kind of person who takes the lead and the work load too.
This time, I was quite lucky. At least nobody is openly not working. Of course there's always some who don't do too much, but well, it's fine.

Anyway:
"Of course I'm a good at team work."
"I like working in a good team."
"I'm team-oriented."
... At least on my CV.

Breaking

Showers break ...
Glass breaks ...
Laptops break ...
Better not break up!

Easter holidays are coming soon. Hope for some nice days with nice weather.
Probably a few day trips.

Should also do something about my RPGMakerXP work ... hm

Our FH project is also developing. That basically means that it's getting more complex and more work intensive every week.
Wonder when we are going to loose orientation in our project.

Tutoring

Today's tutoring was ... surprising. Although I have done all those things during highschool, there were some formulas I've never seen before.
I'm really sorry for the girl, who was there. They have an awful maths book. All vectors ... Really! They explained everything with vectors and have strange ways of writing everything. I first had no idea what all the stuff meant.

Anyway.

Bought a new USB-Stick today. Interesting, isn't it?! ;)

Tomorrow we'll go swimming in the evening. I'm really looking forward to that. All the sitting at FH is kind of tiring for the back.

Ever used the program Matlab? It's really funny. You can't use it without setting your Windows skins to standard. I will crash! ;) Great stuff!

Summer Job

Found a job for summer holidays :)

Wonder how it will be like. It's somehow related to our semester project at university. I hope it's going to be as interesting as it sounds. The company is situated in Vienna. So I will have to travel to Vienna every day... Well, doesn't take that long, I'll survive it for one month. Generally, I prefer to live close to the place where I'm working.

Of course there's not only work waiting during summer.

Tomorrow, I'll have my first coaching. That means I'm going to teach some Maths to a high school student. I'll have to rehearse the topic on my way there. Takes 30 min by train. That should be enough ;)

I'll post a report tomorrow.

'Round the world

on the map!
We're working on a project about traffic jams ... yeah!
Not that far yet.

Roads are still empty and there's only this one picture ... so it's still quite boring. Wonder how it's going to develop.

Gonna pick up Marko in Vienna tomorrow :)
