I’ve really been surprising myself lately. On a weekend where I’m supposed to
work on four to five different school or work related project, I had fallen
short and did absolutely nothing. While I can blame half of it on sickness
and general exhaustion, the fact that I still can’t deal with stress bothers me.
But speaking of work, I’ve finally gotten that work study job I briefly mentioned
some time ago. I’ll be working with professors of the new Cal-IT2 department
and graduate ACE program students to do undergraduate research on
heterogeneous networking, that is, to connect all sorts of different computing
devices onto the same network, which would eventually facilitate things like
playing RO on any conceviable device that can connect to the internet.
It’s a lot of work, and the pay is only mediocre, but it’s a great learning
experience.
