Lately, I have been brainstorming about my future and I have come to realize that I am sitting on some very expensive real-estate. For those who don’t know, it is my dad’s point of sale software: “SPOS.” It is quite possibly the most feature-filled application out there that involves making sales. Honestly, for the price you pay for the software, I consider it a steal. My dad has pretty much though about this whole system inside-out: from layaways to credit notes, it’s all there. The only few changes that are left to make this good application great is implementing some optimization routines (such as using SQL instead of large table pointers) and making it look pretty. After that, I just need to market the hell out of it and I should be set. Of course, I should also write a better manual for it… that will take some time, but a lot of the base has been done.
I can’t wait to take control of my dad’s company in the future. I am the luckiest person on this planet to do so.

Data Failure
Looks like my RAID 0 array decided to fail on me. I’m trying to recover it right now.
Weekend Update
A few things to spill out here.
First, the training has been going real well. I am now squatting 210 lbs, dead-lifting 225 lbs, bench pressing 185 lbs (still need to work on this) pressing 105 lbs and power cleaning 100 lbs. The strength improvements on my legs are really showing, as my boxers are getting tighter around the legs! I also got someone commenting on how much bigger I grew in over a year since she met me. Reviews like this really encourage me to keep on training more. I love it.
Second, my courses are somewhat… uninteresting, to say the least. Learning assembly is fun, but the more I think about it, what the hell will I do with it in the future? Oh right… nothing. And all these logic statements that I’m learning all over again… why? Really boring stuff. I decided to do website work again during class hours… I’m going to end up paying the price again it seems. I should really start my homework.
Next Up: Cuba!
Talks of going to Cuba again with my friends are presently underway. Most likely I’ll be going end of May or beginning of June. Can’t wait.
No Excuses for not Training
One excuse I keep hearing from people is that they “don’t have the time to go to the gym”. That’s a lie if I ever saw one. I work six days a week, go to school (3 night courses after work) and develop websites in my spare time, all the while managing to train 3 times a week (Monday, Thursday and Saturday nights). I also get to socialize with my friends a few times a week, so anyone who’s anyone can pull this off. I also get an adequate amount of sleep as well per night. Did I mention that I also get to watch a movie or two on my new television? It’s doable, people!
