Today i had to pick which courses i would take next semester. Since my track is supposedly Software Engineering, it would be more advantageous for me to take up 2 of the ff:
    Advanced Systems Analysis and Design
    Distributed and Enterprise Software
    Information Engineering
    Survey of ICT Standards
But i just couldnt. Information Engineering would definitely be boring. ICT Standards would be pure memorization. gawd. -_- Distributed SW was interesting enough but i doubt id use it.. and as for ASAD -- well, i really hate DFDs ERDs and UML.

SO... in order to enjoy (while learning from a very good teacher) my last sem studying (after this, ill only have my Thesis left), i will enroll in:
    Introduction to Theory, Design and Development of Computer Games
    PC and Console Dame Development
If i work hard, after this, well be able to create games playable in PS2. yay for me! unfortunately, its gonna be a groupwork thing.. and im not really a teamworker like most CS people are.. haha.

edit 1: this afternoon when i was asking other professors about their opinion on the classes offered, i was told that Game Programming was very hard and complicated. and then i instantly got scared. i thought about the Math involved. The complexity of the algorithms. and how high my chances would be of fucking up. and how i couldnt afford a grade lower than A for the Japan scholarship im hoping to get next year. So i told myself to forget about game development.

it was a good thing though that my old programming teacher was there, and he told me that i could definitely handle it. coming from him, someone who can probably see my strengths and weaknesses better, it really boosted my self-confidence. because i really have loooooooooow self-confidence. i always rely on people to reassure me that i can do it!! if no one does, i usually back out. it really sucks you know.. I cant say im a risk taker. im afraid of messing up, and failing. its not like i never failed before.. i just feel pressure not to, so the best way not to fail, is to avoid doing things youre not sure you can pull off. gah.. but i wont get anywhere far if i keep setting my goals really low.

someone recommend a nice self-help book. >:E or a seminar that can help me be a more confident person. >:E i should realize how much i rock. lolz
