Showcrap 2004

Really a busy day today. Woke up early for a lesson that starts at 9am in the morning. Went for lessons for the whole day and atteneded a talk. Today was rather special. It was my school's showcase. Showcasing 100 best projects and assignments done by our students. Get to see alot of different projects and works in the labs. The talk was rather boring, about all kinds of security for IT. Didn't knew that IT needed so much security. Maybe the more its being researched, we must spend the same amount of time and money to think of ways to keep it secured. Maybe there is an untapped market for another kind of IT security that is not discovered yet. Let the future unfold itself and we will see. Club was where i went after everything ended. Met up with my clubmates for dinner. Somewhat like a farewell dinner for our Main Committee in the club. Went to Fish & Co. for dinner. Ordered 2 big dishes and 1 small one. Even though it was like quit alot, but i did not fill my stomach fully. Guess im a big eater at night. I do not wish to elaborate any further as it might hurt the other's feelings. After that, we took some photographs using the camera i brought. Went over to Plaza Singapura to grab a couple of drinks. Walked about the complex and talked awhile before heading home. Reason: some of them are tired and one of them needs to work. So i went back with one of them, boarded the train together. I dropped off early. Since i was still hungry, i went over to a nearby coffeeshop(eatery equivalent) to have some food. Had indian rojak, if i have the time i will explain what this dish contains. Rest and watched TV at the coffeeshop and headed back home soon after.

Today was the day where ICT students get to show off thier projects to the rest of the world. All the best projects were put on exhitbition. Looking at all these, i realise that the school is actually trying to sell thier students to the industry rather than wait for the companies to buy them. So i wonder... Are they trying to make sure that their top students get a job ASAP when they graduate? Or are they trying to seperate the good students that are good at these projects and the rest that are just an average joe? Than i wonder why in the first place we all study the same poly, the same course and get the same diploma when we are marketed differently? I guess the school is making a name of themselves and hoping that the industry is mainly hiring SP students. I guess when you are a private tertiary institution, you have to think like an organization sometimes.

School admin sucks...
