Reading Java book

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

Starting today, October 26, 2009, I committed myself to read Java book every lunch break. I’ll be very lucky if I can read 10 pages during lunch break. We have 1 and a half hour break. I will eat for 30 minutes and I’ll dedicate my 1 hour for developing my skills in Java.

I want to develop my skills in Java so that I can easily finish the tasks assigned to me. Currently, we have development tasks in the office and it will end by mid-December. Good luck to me for this development tasks. Development tasks in Java is another great experience for me. :)

My Life at Pangasinan State University – Main (Lingayen) Campus

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

I would like to share my college life at Pangasinan State University.

In 2002, I went to Pangasinan State University to take an entrance exam. Fortunately, I passed the entrance exam so I was able to enroll at Pangasinan State University (PSU). I took BS Computer Science. It’s a four-year course.

When I was in first year, our teacher in computer (Introduction to Computer Programming) taught us Turbo Pascal. Turbo Pascal is the first programming language I learned from school. From that time, I started to love computer programming. My parents can’t afford to buy my personal computer when I was in college so I decided to compile all my programs in a folder. I bought 100 pieces of bond paper and a folder. There I compiled all my running programs. Whenever my Turbo Pascal program successfully ran in our computer, I added it to my compilation folder. That’s how I learned programming without a personal computer.

I finished College without my own Computer. Because of my great desire to finish college, I was able to make it. After my graduation, I worked as a programmer in a certain company in Manila, Philippines. I hope that this would be a great inspiration to all students who want to be successful. I believe on this saying “You can do it, if you believe you can.”

Behind this success, there were people who extended their helping hand while I was in college. I would like to thank the following:

1. Rolando J. Andico
2. Aileen V. Medina
3. Jully A. Manuel
4. Antonio de Guzman
5. Julio Cervantes
6. Rey Sarmiento

and to all my teachers, classmates,  friends, relatives and my parents who became a part of my success when I was in College.
