Another Day...

Well... For those of you who didn't know, already, I got laid off from Foxconn in February of this year and have been unemployed ever since. In that same time, however, I've completed my Master's Degree and have started several projects to try and build my resume.

One of these projects is Quick Mobile Weather (QM:W), a Windows Mobile Today Screen plugin that provides current and forecasted weather data. It's still in the planning stages at the moment but I hope to start coding on it soon.

The other project, which is on the front burner, is the design, development and administration of a local neighborhood group's Web site. Cold Spring Road Neighborhood Community Engagement Initiative sent out a survey a couple of months ago and asked for any volunteers. Being unemployed and in need of experience, I happily volunteered to do their Web site and help with any other IT needs. I'm hoping that this volunteer work goes toward improving both my skills and my resume.

So, today, I have many things to do, and one of them is to get a decent design figured out for CSRNCEI... I've had designer's block for the past month or so and I'm finding it very challenging to design this site but the domain should be ready soon and it needs a site!!

Anyway, I'm off to go get my allergy shots. I'll be thinking about design the entire time. Hopefully I'll come up with something...

P.S. If anyone knows of any programming or network administration or even help desk jobs in the greater Indianapolis area, please let me know. I've had 0 success landing a new job and things are starting to get ugly... LOL

Crunchtime Once Again...

So it is the last day of my course on Web Publishing and I have work that is four days late yet instead of doing said work I'm sitting here posting on my new blog for no apparent reason.

I've decided I have entirely too many projects at the moment... There's family, work and school to start off with. Those three alone make my life busy and hectic but does that stop me? Of course not!! I'm trying to get a business off the ground and help to build and run a MMORPG. And let's not forget the software I want to write for Windows Mobile and the Restaurant Management System I want to put together and market...

So, yes, I'm busy... And I've added blogging to my list of things to do. I'm not really sure what I should blog about since eNVENT Technologies isn't really doing much at the moment. I guess random meanderings are the way to go for the time being.

Anyway, back on the topic at hand... I have three assignment questions due on Thursday of last week that I've yet to do and a team project that is almost finished.... I guess I should be focusing on these assignments but I have a rough time working on anything useful before it is far too late to get it done. However, I have to get things done tonight as this is the last day of class and one is not allowed to turn in assignments after class ends.

Well.. I think I've burnt enough precious time for the moment.
