Summer 1996
Geeky kid trying not to be geeky:
Programming qBASIC routines on a macintosh performa 6300 emulating windows 95 with TWENTY megs R.A.M. and 800 MB HDD. listening to the LATEST in 90's dance music at 4 am

twelve years later...
Spring 2008
Geeky kid not worried about being geeky anymore...
Programming visualBASIC routines on a Lenovo windowsXP with 3000MB in ram and some TB in HD space w/ 3 monitors. listening to the SAME 90's dance tracks at 4am

only technology changes... and the perception of oneself.

back in those days macs were cool b/c they were complicated and crashed. now they crash trying to be simple. I guess what i'm trying to say is im not ashamed of being geeky anymore whereas macs are ashamed of being complicated

Procrastinator 5.0.0.2

At this point I should've been validating my Simulator code for my thesis. instead i have NO FREAKIN Code whatso...ever. i managed to build some very nice but-at-this-point useless routines to import data from excel datasheets and to write selfpacked Matlab programs but I HAVE NO KERNEL (sobbing!) and all thanks to my inabbility to read long papers and to understand complex mathematical equations. My thesis director just keeps feeding me papers and links but I cannot decode the oh-so-very-needed model for my kernel.

If yo made it reading to here, you are my hero since i already got in my own nerves... thanks though.
