Quick update

So, now that I'm off the meds, I'm slowly getting up to speed. Good thing, because things are now getting really hectic. Loads of assignments due. Fair enough - I even managed to contribute marginally to the case due tomorrow, to everyone's surprise.

CV workshop. Wow. I thought that I had a good CV. Apparently I was mistaken. So, I now need to revise my CV. This includes, for instance, probably cutting out the first 2-3 years of my work experience as it is not really relevant for the kind of job I'm looking for. It is quite interesting to realize how CVs actually get read by the recruiters. Basically, you have 30 seconds to get your main points across. Anything that distracts from your main points - remove. So, in my case, my first couple of titles, they distract, so remove.

Then, Viking Week. Well, we're slowly getting the agenda together. It will be full of fun stuff. We've also managed to secure a fair amount of funding, which really helps. Otherwise there's no way we could be doing a tenth of what we will actually do.

It will be interesting to see how the next couple of weeks work out - if I end up dropping more balls than I really would like to, or if by some miracle I manage to keep everyone reasonably happy.
