"hate surprises!"

no its not a surprise.. it was announced.. 5 minutes before the start of class.. so it is really not surprise.. right? hahaha!

watta day.. test in math, seatwork in intprog, and.. waaaat? a test in intrict? hmm.. at first i was really surprise because i dont know what are the scopes of the test.. when i received the paper.. i was quite relaxed because it is only true or false.. but at the baack of the paper.. it has an enumeration!!! i only copied what is shown on the powerpoint because i think it is close to the answer.. then.. the checking and the results was done... my score?

i was only 8! so sad.. but.. its alright because sir oli decided not to record it.. tnx sir!!

what i learned on that day is about enterprise.. about the difference between the perational and tactical.. and what enterprise compose of.. i was really shock about the different information sir oli given to us.. namely about the issue of gasoline prices.. and also about the rice.. i didn't think of those tactics even before..

but what i cant forget is this..

"when there is a McDo.. there is always a jollibee.."

lol! from that day that sir oli told us about that i become addicted of observing it everytime i see mcdonalds .. and in fact, it was really true.. and sometimes there's a 2:1 ratio.. 2 jollibee for 1 mcdo.. hehe.. i just smiled and said to myself..

"tnx to sir oli.. heheh"

what's with the computing industry?

computing industry exist a high demnd for professional even here at the philippines..


on our class with sir oli this week, he discussed to us about the demands of i.t. professional.. and specially, how will a lasallian be a professional.. he first discuss us the high demant of professional on this job.. there is a high demand because the quality of professional graduates here at the philippines are going down.. because some find this course difficult, there is also a decrease in enrollment.. a lot of professional are needed anually.. there is a lesser chance of being empliyed also because of the requirments of the company for the job are not obtained..

there are a lot of technical skills needed.. the minimum is 5.. but in lasalle they are going to teach only 2.. that's java and sql.. the moment that it enters my mind.. i only taught that, why do we need to pay high for only two skills? but sir oli explains why before the violent reactions starts.. he told us that we need to learn it ourselves.. to be independent.. fair enough.. but..



what if the students cant be independent?


what if the student cannot sustain the character of an independent person?



that is why dlsu focuses more on non technical skills for building a good character for a profesiional.. almost all the non technical skills needed are being teach or learn in this university.. it is because professionals must not be up to the job.. what they really need is the career.. thats the statement that i learn from sir oli.. and im going to uphold myself with that line..

Job Clippings..


on this first graph shows the very need or the necessary requirments of this job.. the technical skills.. as shown in the graph the in demand technical skills nowadays are SQL and what most of us students know, JAVA. for now i have a lot of questions about this different skills because there are new to me.. but i wish that in time.. i will learn the other skills also so that i can apply to different jobs..





on this bar graph shows the non technical skills that are required for a 1 year experience i.t. jobs.. as shown.. the basic components or characteristics one must have is analytical, teamwork, and especially communicating skills.. communicating skills is for you to elaborate and explain to your workers what you want to show on your proposal or idea.. while teamwork is the best method because doing different programs requires a lot of people so that it can be finished accurately.. companies hire a lot of workers for it to be more sucessful.. that is why teamwork is important because you are going to be expose to the different i.t. professionals..





this 5 are the responsibilities that mostly needed by the companies or by the job.. there are a lot more different responsibilities but i only chose some which are more necessary.. as shown at the bar graph it is very important for a company that a person can work under pressure.. it is very imoprtant for i.t. workers because it takes a lot of time producing and developing applications and projects.

will i become one of them?

after our first week, we are now entering the doors of becoming an i.t. student.. from the different information that sir oli gave us, our knowledge widen about this ICTM course..

learning about productivity is the main ingredient for the main course of this job.. my own definition for the word productivity is this..
productivity is the reason why i.t. professional are paid.. why? because if an i.t. professional doesn't have this, he cannot be consider as a pro in this genre.. productivity is the one needed by the companies because this is for thier own advantages and for their own comfort.. the value of the idea that an i.t. pro can give to the company is the one necessary for an i.t. pro to be paid and to be recognized as one.. the effect of that idea for the company or an org is what being tested.. it is an i.t. professional who must have this ability to produce that value for the different company so that their task will be reduced so that it can able to perform a lot of work..

what will i become?

will i become one of them?

what does an i.t. professional or widely known as information systems professional thinks?

the first two question may be answered personally by how will i achieve my dreams to become one.. to become one of them, you must learn a lot and simply.. learn to love what you are doing.. cause without this love or passion.. you will just stay junk outside a company..

the next question that all of us always asked is how do we differ from computer degree..

there are a lot of answer to this question.. some are about application technologies, about system utilities tools, operating sytems and different other terms that some of it i cant understand.. but for me..
i can answer that question with this simple statement..

"kung wla ang c.s. ano ang gagawin ng ictm? ganon din sa ictm.. kung wla ang ictm.. ano ang gagawin ng c.s.?"


"mutualism"

on the second day, sir olive introduce us to google.. seems like im entering another world because im used to do things at yahoo.. well, its not bad to give it a try.. as he explains the different advantages of google like the calendar system, maps, more convenient bookmarks, documents that 2 person ca nwork on together and other more, the scenario was liked he is a seller who convinces me to buy google and he definitly convinced me to buy that thing.. good job sir.. hehe.. he teaches us the other uses of internet like for entertainment, communications and other things i am amazed because i dont know it before..
