Just finished blogging about CodeXtremeApps. Congrats to Herry of Pluit solutions to be awarded the second prize for the competition.

I am currently feeling damn frustrated, and finding it so hard to complete my tasks. I feel rather burnt out for now… Honestly, I am damn aware of all the mounting deadlines but I just can’t will myself to work.

I really need a good hug right now. I need someone to assure me all is well, and encourage me to carry on… I just feel so jaded. I want to lie down and sleep. :(

Ok I shall stop here lest I get carried away, and seems like i blogged alot today.

Oh well.

25 Sep 2007 journey of CodeXtreme (3)

And so the judging came and went… din manage to be shortlisted. oh well. thats ok… come to think of it, here are the breakdown of why I din do well enough…

Lack of time to master the stuff needed, because of the need to juggle sch work, project and assignments… and well, at least i have proven to myself that I can code and learn under pressure, and considering this is my first outing to a code jamming competition, it was fruitful exposure. :)

And yes, I can last the extremities of being isolated with other people in a room and focus on coding… something which i am scared about at first, and that my fears were largely unfounded.

I survived a 24 hr code jam. and I am looking forward to another one. and this time, i will have a better game plan.

25 Sep 2007 IBM servers anyone?
 |  Category: payperpost  | Comments off

At perfdata.com, they are selling new and refurbished servers, and I can’t help but check out what are their offerings… :) I saw the new AS/400 IBM systems that they are selling. Plus a whole lot of other peripherals to add on to the current specifications of the server.

For people who are on a budget, you might consider buying used components instead, that way, you still get the performance needed without overshooting the budget! Hmm, they even offer free shipping services!

A plus point is that they are IBM certified and that they are committed to customer satisfaction. :) Oh yeah, their online inventory is so comprehensive that I am able to browse through and look for what I wanted! Indeed a wonderful site to do all my server shopping needs :)
