it’s been a while since my last post on my blog (geezz….I am starting to hate these set of words as my opening, lolz). The assignments for the first semester @ RMIT almost driving my life to insanity, I should say it was pretty close though. Now it has ended, no more assignments at all. I just wanna thank God and all my friends who have been very supportive for the first semester, couldn’t be more easier without your help guys. Well, the final result of all of the assignments were absolutely stunning for me, and I am well-satisfied with the result at the end (soon I post all the results at my website).
Beginning of semester at RMIT, we were given 6 choices of major for Computer Science student. Right now, I dont remember all of them but I can tell that all BiNus 2009 students who comes to RMIT are split into two majors. Me myself, Glen, and Arly chose "Multimedia Design" and the rest of use chose "Business Application". I was kinda stuck at the beginning though between "Multimedia Design" and another major named "Web Systems". I was a pretty hard choice though when I finally decided to pick "Multimedia Design". It was a perfect choice actually at the very beginning coz I learn design essentials here but in the end it wasn’t that perfect. I know regretting this decision won’t help me to achieve my goal, what I am trying to do is cope with it and make the best out of it.
Next question is probably, why "Web Systems"? Straight off, the truth is I love Web especially Web-Designing as it has became my hobby and I am willing to take this hobby of mine to the higher level. I knew Web or should I should I say WebSite in better understanding when I was in high school, that time I joined "WebDV" club, which stands for Web Development club. Basically what we did everyweek is to learn and produce a website for BiNus HighSchool. I was starting to learn HTML and stuffs, Multimedia Flash (now Adobe Flash), Adobe Photoshop (that time version 6.0), etc. I kept on continuing to learn all about web since then till right now. Along the process, I learn how to create an eye-catching website which can be simple or complex yet still stunning. Stunning and Eye-Catching is probably my own benchmark when I design a website; whether it is easy to use or user-friendly centric I don’t really care. I just want everyone when they see my design, the first word that comes out from their saying is "Wow….amazing". The fact is "my heart beats so fast when I see such a stunning website, I guess the beauty that resides inside a website is just incomparable with anything"
If it is so perfect about "Web Systems", why dont I choose it since from the very beginning. Well, that was my mistake I guess, I should go thorough with the available choices after all. Right now, what I have to do is to cope with my own consequences as a result of my decision. I just dont want to live my life in such a regret, probably when I went through everything all out once again I’d say "What the hell? Why don’t I choose Web Systems? So stupid of me!" But, on the other hand I was fully satisfied since I chose "Web Development Technologies" as my elective course. I learn extremely a lot of stuffs here about web development especially the User Interface part, which I assume will help me to produce even more stunning website later in the future. I thank God for His brilliant path for me yet I myself have decided not to live in regret with this decision. Because of this course, I finally decided that I will go serious about this web-designing and I am pretty sure that this is the job I really want later in the future.
Final thought is, probably everyone has made a mistake in their life, and some of them create such a regretful drama in the book of life. A page is written down already with this we all know as "UNERASEABLE INK", it has become a part of our life. The Page that cannot be erased nor torn apart. What we can do is to "repaint" that pages, add some decorations and drawings, so that in the end when we through that "page", it won’t be that messy as it was first, big time. This is what I am doing right now, add my own decorations to that "page". What about you guys? How are you going to face such a situation? Completely Cross-it off from your book and starting to write the same title all over again but with different story? or Stick with it but just like me, add some decorations, so it looks much nicer and better?
You decide!
