As I was browsing my PC directories for my previous programs, I noticed of how I've transformed my way into becoming the programmer I am now.. Funny that after a while that I've not read my code, I could not really understand what I've been doing during the development of the program. It feels like that the one that created my codes was not me.

The list of programs I'd finish were pretty nifty and of course, sometimes I couldn't still see myself as the one who made those. I've started my career as student-programmer who would create programs for my alma-mater. One of the first program I've created was the AMA Computerized Election using Visual Basic 6.0. It had become a tradition then for 4 straight years, I've slowly developed the program from static data into a dynamic queries of candidates.

The next project was the Miss Teen Philippines program for the judges. I was pretty proud of that damn thing.. I embraced that program with a few knowledge on network programming of VB 6.0... When a friend-teacher saw our work, they could not believe that we were the one that developed that system...

Then of course, our thesis... My first try on PHP... The program is kind of lame... Never tried PHP before.... But it's okay, we just pulled it up with the 3D animations...

Then came my first real life project... The Land Tax Information System... A VB project for one of the Local Government... Large scale program use in for recordings of properties of land tax...

After that, thesis, thesis and thesis for different schools... a Decision Support System for inventory. A Computerized Election for a school, a grading system for one college department... working on thesis programs really give a good financial boost... But creating thesis is really a big pain in the arse. Panels would request outrageous add-ons... Which really very different on working with real life...

One example is the Cyber-Classroom LAN-based thesis using PHP... Wherein after finishing the final system, I'm amazed of the level of difficulty of the system... I can't believe I was paid with the small amount...

Also there are other systems that I've finished and after making all those programs, I'm pretty glad where my career is heading right now...

As of now, I'm on a new venture... Slowly and slowly, I'm getting closer to my dreams....

La Primera Proyekto

First Project... Hmmmmmm....

I've learn so much this three months way more than I learned from my Masters Degree in a year. Looking into my last project wherein I performed in a mediocre fashion, I still loved the way it turned out. Learning Joomla is the best way that ever happened to my career. Only by this time around that I've understand the true essence of software development(this is not a technical post :) so I will just leave that line of storytelling)... I've easily grasped the concept and dedicated most of time programming in the JoOmla-way..

At first, it is kinda shameful to admit that it is really way way difficult to fathom all the new terminologies and programming models, so I just decided to follow the main programming approach on components and modules...

Someday, how I wish that I could learn how to cut the site into DIVs and totally develop my own template...

This project also enrich my knowledge on Object-Oriented Programming with different styles.. Also learned AJAX and researched on other Javascript tools..

I just need to take another one step farther to learn more ideas in this field.. I hope that on the next project I could try different approaches and learn more tools...

The problems that I have encountered so far grind my mind that I had some migraine attacks in the morning... But what the heck, I'm learning... and there is no greater thing on the this earth than to learn....

I will just post some of my works here... Aja....

Prince Purple Rain Lyrics

I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted one time to see you laughing
I only wanted to see you laughing in the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you bathing in the purple rain

I never wanted to be your weekend lover
I only wanted to be some kind of friend, hey
Baby, I could never steal you from another
It's such a shame our friendship had to end

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you underneath the purple rain

Honey, I know, I know, I know times are changin'
It's time we all reach out for something new, that means you too
You say you want a leader, but you can't seem to make up your mind
And I think you better close it and let me guide you to the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
If you know what I'm singin' about up here, come on raise your hand
Purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you, only want to see you in the purple rain

Totally

In life, sometimes you need to learn to know what you want in order for you to know where you're going.

And now that is the difference.... I know now what I want... I will do every single moment of everyday to get what I want... At long last, my life has a new direction to face on.. Onwards to the sunrise, for the new beginning has risen...

I've not written on this blog for a long time but it doesn't mean I'm living astray... It's just that without writing here, I have fully established the very foundation of my life.. Another chapter had closed, and the pretext of this one is being written down... I can't wait to see the end of this chapter, but it's still a long way to go.. In this chapter, I want somebody to be a part of it... But I'm in no control whatsoever to the casting of this script... If that somebody still wants to be in on this, I would gladly allot the space for that person...

Nahhh... I'm saying more that what I'm supposed to say...

Until the next blogging session...
