CM-Group_Placement Week 7

Hey ppl

Nearly been at CM Group for two months....can't really believe it. Anyways this week has been a fairly quiet one, and so I've taken the time to build myself a portfolio. This will hopefully help me to advertise my work and get more potential employment post uni, which will be gd given the current economic climate they so kindly keep reminding us about. The portfolio will be Flash based, written in AS2&/AS3 as I'm learning AS2 but am pretty competent in AS3. Aside from my portfolio I have done a bit more on the skinning front, mainly tweaking completed skins, which were both my own and other colleagues. I hear next week is meant to be more productive, as we have some response from clients, new and old, asking for more work, so things are in the pipeline, just need the briefs sent through and then I can hopefully do some more e-learning developments.

Away from work, the house is back to normal now, and the mini-extension is practically complete, but I'm not sure how I'm going to live in a normal house [that's square looking - and kind of standard] - as our house has different levels and buildings leading off from other buildings, so funny to watch people find their way around when they come and visit :-) Also, my younger brother has been waiting on his results from college, so there has a been a slight feeling of apprehension, as he really wants to go to Uni, and do something IT related. I kind of feel sorry for him, as he's a practical kind of guy, so would prefer to do an apprenticeship, but there just aren't the companies out there with enough money to take on extra people. But on the upside he got the results he wants and has enough points to go to Uni so all should be good on that front. So glad I don't every have to sit another exam, who needs the stress and wants the wrinkles lol.

Anyways bye for now, talk soon

Rach :-)
