Dreams of the past? Or ghosts of the future?

    Everyone of us grew up having dreams and aspirations for ourselves free of limitations or any boundaries. who of us didn't dream of flying like Superman, fighting crime like Batman or rule the world like in "Pinky and the Brain" ... etc.
    Until the time comes when we clash with reality, in which no such fantasy can be easily obtained, when we get stuned with the fact "you simply can't win something without a price".
    It's the time where you start to doubt your dreams, asking the same old silly question " Will I ever be what I want?" , this'll be the time where you say farewell to the dreams of your past, and say hello to the ghosts of your future. Then will come the everlasting question; "Will you work for the dreams of your past ? Or you'll let the ghosts of your future choose you your way ?"
    Here, comes the test, but always remember, it's never too late to change ....

Hazards of being a Computer Engineer

    Leading a programmer's life ain't an easy job. Because sooner or later, people will start not to understand you ... You always speak of codes no matter what, call your actions as functions, or even treat yourself and those around you like an instance of a class.
   Not only that, you'll write the best documentation ever, always ending your statements in a semicolon ';' rather that a period '.', using underscores '_' instead of a normal blank space ' ', enclosing your work in a curly braces '{' & '}', pressing 'ctrl' + 's' every time you change a letter in your text, and finally instead of erasing a sentence as you write you simply comment it by either '//' or '/* */'.
   That's some of the hazards of being a Computer Engineer, and it's only my first year as one. God be with us all.

My first Delivery Week

     Ever since I became a student of Computer Engineering Department, I started to get familiar with some new words like "Project" , "Delivery", or even more the most famous "Delivery week". Delivery week, having known about only through words of those of more years in the department, is one of the toughest week you have in the department, week of anger, rush, breakdowns, will and above all, week of nerves. It's the week were you get to submit all the projects you've been working in the few months the precedes it, it's the time, that your honor the all the work and effort of these months or it's the time, that all work flies away for a silly mistake or a non-perfect product.
    Never had I experienced such a week before, however, and after 9 months in green department, here I go, and in the last week, it was my first delivery week.   We were scheduled to submit 2 projects;
• Logic Gate Simulator .. project for "Programming Techniques" course.
• Two-Digit Stop Watch .. project for "Logic Design" course.
    It was kinda of a bad experience, had the worst delivery ever in my life because of one silly mistake, hastiness, which made me learn never to update a working code just before delivery. On the other side, this week was one of the weeks I greatly learned from, not just in my academic life, but within my life in general , it appears man always learn from bad experience, more than he learns out of good ones.
  I believe that's enough for now, will be talking soon about each ...
    

A friend to remember

      Life is never to be, without someone by your side to stay, someone whom before you speak, he hears - a fantasy, ain't it? - or at least someone that when you speak he hears. And it's never harder than when you live within people and end up feeling alone ... So, what's life for ? Not a big deal, huh ?
      It's been me that very day, when every hope I had was nothing more than a pile of clay ... when those I kept near, seemed so very far away. Not sure if they really did, or just my mind deceiving me. All I'm sure they weren't near, the way I wanted them to be.
    And as it seemed so dark, and when all my hopes to ground have gone. He was there, to bear me the way I was, to advice me to the way that I should take by , to take me out of what I feel. He was a true friend, that when I needed he was there ... God bless you, and may you always be there for me.
   And until I find the way to pay you back, Thanks .... And you'll always be "a friend to remember".
