A little update
It’s been some time, and I thought I’d write. I’ve been free from the monotony of Kodak for some time now, and it was only shortly after leaving that I stopped writing regularly. Frankly I was bored most hours of the day and in need of release, so I vented through my journal. And most satisfying it was.
I know now that normal work is not for me. Given a job that I enjoy I dedicate myself to the task and find it hard to stop until it’s done perfectly. I just need to find such an avenue, I can’t see that avenue being science, maybe I’m wrong. I’m not sure. I just had a really miserable experience at Kodak.
Since then I’ve been programming like crazy. I love it! Filelight is good now, and functionally satisfactory for packaging up and distribution, I have plans though to make the widget generic so it can be used in other software, but currently I’m enjoying coding for amaroK, a media player that could be quite innovative, if our goals continue as planned. But even if that isn’t so and nobody likes it and everybody thinks it’s yet another media player it doesn’t matter because it’s great fun.
I like building things, and engineering solutions. Computers make those two things really easy.
