This day and the rest are all boring

Alright so already I’m getting sick of this place.. Not the blog but where I currently work. I’m not really sure what it is.. It’s either the uber-smelly manager, the atmosphere or the current project that I’m working on. Clearly, I’m not a fan of my manager. The way she speaks to her employees is totally unacceptable. For example, you dont make a joke of their personal lives when something does not go your way. Let’s keep it professional people! Then the atmosphere… It’s pretty quiet & boring in the dept. When you walk in the hallway, they even play some music to get rid of the silence. In here, no music. The only noise you’ll here is the clicking of the keyboard either from you or your neighbor. So most of the time I browse an online radio and listen to some alternative music. Then the project, I honestly didnt expect to write any C code in this work term. In fact my title specifically says ‘web developer’. Last time I remember, you cant develop web applications in C. I already had to learn Perl and Javascript for the previous project and now I have to brush up on my most hated language? C is a pain hence will drive me to insane mode. I’m honestly looking forward to the last day and my 5-day vacation. Heh.. Only 5 days of vacation. Sadly thats pretty pathetic. Then I’m back to school on the 4th. Ah only 5.5 weeks left!!!

flickr yo!

Ah I’ve been finally uploading the photos I have stored in my external hard drive to my flickr pro account. Thanks to Rogers by being one of their customers, I get a pro account for ‘free’. I guess until we cancel our Rogers subscription, it’s a pro-free account. With that being said, I’ve been scoping our ways to promote my flickr gallery. Most of it are photos of my sister because I hate posting pics of myself. :bored: I also have been searching for various WordPress flickr-type plugins to use to show it of in here since Ringo.com closed on me. :weeping: Poor Ringo. I guess they couldnt compete with flickr. On another note, it turns out I’ll have to upgrade my WordPress to the latest version. I’ve upgraded alot of my sites to the latest WP version but not this one. I guess I’ll have to deal with that before installing a plugin. But if you wanna see photos I’ve uploaded in flickr, check these out.

Flick Album!
