It has been an interesting 2 months !
I moved to a new city called Waterloo and started working as a coop student for Research in Motion (RIM), number one company in Canada and World's number one growing company (if you follow the link, you may find out even more interesting stuff about RIM).
To my surprise, for which i entirely blame my working experiences from Serbia (except Beogrid), company is consisted of extreme, wonderfuly big, large, HUGE number of young people ! :)
But, let's start from the beginning. Well, we don't have to go all the way to the beginning of everything, but let's go back to the beginning (this word is so hard to type!) of year 2010.
As you may or may not know, i am a student of Sheridan College in Brampton, Canada.
I am taking a 3 year program called "Software Development and Network Engineering", which is consisted of regular full-time school and 3 times 4 months of coop terms, and which i will hopefully end in December 2011.
To make things easier to understand, lets put it like this (each part is 4 months):
school -> school -> school -> coop -> school -> coop -> school -> coop -> school
In December i have finished my third semester (out of 6) of school and time came for me to start my first 4 months long coop term (semester of work instead of school - praksa). I have been applying for 17+ jobs through my college coop system when I got offer to work for RIM. In Waterloo. 100km from Brampton, 150km from Toronto.
There it was, a decision to be made.
Refuse RIM and look for something else, somewhere closer or accept the offer from RIM and...
...move to Waterloo.
So, here i am.
I have been working for almost two full months and didn't get too much chance to see the city. During the week i have two days (tuesdays and thursdays) when i have to work in the evening because i am working as a network assistant and some changes to the network can be made only after regular working hours.
Other days i'm either too tired or too annoyed by (shity) winter weather so i just go to my rented basement where i have established my Waterloo HQ and then i get myself working on all kinds of crazy ideas that i have, like switching blogs or creating new ways of memorizing important stuff (MEC) or trying to draw some kind of diagram of computer network that i have created so far all over the World (New Belgrade + Brampton outpost + W'loo).... It never ends...
Friday comes and then i go to Brampton to spend the weekend with Katarina. I usualy return on Sunday night and then - rinse, repeat.
That's about it so far, if some new exciting stuff happens you will be the first to know !
Pozdrav Cp6ujo, gde god da si.
