Update: Nosebleed at the Office

Posted by Bryan Karl | Saturday, May 30, 2009

For this post, nosebleed does not mean the literal epistaxis but just a term connoted to mean one who is receiving an information overload thus causing a figurative nosebleed. Filipinos invented that, I’m not the one to be solely blamed, HAHA.

I am currently undergoing my internship in one software company and will be until October. I admit life at school and life at the workplace are not the same. In school there is pressure. At work, there’s more pressure. In school we focus on a certain language for the time being. Once we had so much of C, and then shifted to Java then to PHP and MySQL. At work, I get a pinch of everything everyday. Once I got slapped by Javascript (too much of it I am learning now) which was never taught to us at school (because we are CS, not IT). I got a touch of Adobe ColdFusion, some okay CSS and HTML and just recently, XML. I know how XML goes but I haven’t tried doing anything about it and mating it with Javascript. Oh man, a day of nosebleeds. And that day was yesterday.

I felt bad going home without finishing my XML coding. Though I finished the crucial part, I haven’t made the last bit of the task because I was already inching to go home and paste myself in front of my laptop. I even went out past my end time but I really had no more energy to finish the task. Sigh, if only I have more experience with such languages. That brings me to the topic of virtual classroom training. What if I go and learn stuff online? On second thoughts, maybe I’ll just read a good book in the office mini-library. Why not?
