Black Friday

So the day came and it went, I bought stuff that I could’ve gotten any other day, but hey, the thrill of living like a hobo! Am I right? Anyways, I got a Zune, so I’ll be programming for that real soon, but I’m really happy because I finally have my Bamboo Wacom Tablet, it’s sweeeet~ Can’t wait to start drawing again!

Lanzamiento Visual Studio 2008 – Bol Bol!

Kobo — Tue, 20 May 2008 18:59:40 +0000

La Comunidad .NET de Cd. Juárez está haciendo el lanzamiento de Visual Studio 2008. Pero en esta ocasión, quisieron hacerlo MUY diferente a como habían sido sus eventos anteriores, y en lugar de realizarlo en el ITESM, donde regularmente lo hacen, ahora consiguieron el apoyo del boliche Bol Bol. La idea es que ahora sea en un ambiente más relajado. Por otro lado, también tienen el objetivo de que los asistentes se vayan con la idea de que aprendieron algo nuevo, no solo de que fueron a un evento de mercadotecnia. Por esto, aunque inicialmente habían pensado en incluir SQL Server 2008 en las pláticas, al final decidieron no hacerlo, y solo se enfocarán en Visual Studio 2008, pero tratando de profundizar en las nuevas características que a nuestros ojos lo hacen valioso.

* Lo nuevo en C# y en VB9.
* Usando LINQ con bases de datos relacionales.
* Construyendo Aplicaciones Web con VS 2008. Presentación de las nuevas herramientas.
* Programación Web con Windows Communication Foundation (WCF).
* Introducción a Silverlight.

Regresando a la parte relajada del evento, Bol Bol se ha portado excelente, no solamente apoya con sus instalaciones, sino que además regalará líneas de boliche para los asistentes. Así que ya saben! Acudan al evento y no solo aprenderán sobre Visual Studio 2008, sino que además podrán jugar boliche gratis.

Eso no es todo, además, amigos de Dataxport también están apoyando, y gracias a ellos podremos tener refrescos y bocadillos para los asistentes. Así como algunas playeras para rifar gracias a Mister G.

Finalmente, para que les interese aun mas, de parte de Microsoft habrá varios paquetes de software (Windows Server 2008, SQL Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008 y Windows Vista) con licencias Full para rifar entre los asistentes.

Por supuesto, como todos los eventos de la Comunidad .NET de Juarez, es totalmente gratis.

Donde: Bol Bol.
Cuando: Martes 27 de Mayo 2008.
Hora: 3:00 PM (2:30 Registro).
Cuanto: NADA! Totalmente Gratis!

Spread the word!

Pool should be Closed…due to COLD!

Kobo — Mon, 12 May 2008 06:43:36 +0000

Well, at least it should have been closed, it was HORRIBLY cold. Let me give you a little background if you are not from around here, it’s almost the middle of May and the winds apparently don’t cease, which is rare, because they usually end in February or March, however, it’s getting warmer and warmer and I love it! So, in due to the fact that it was a wonderful Sunday morning (except for the dusty-allergy-inducing-breezes from time to time) we decided of course to go to D’Martlub Club, where we can get in the outdoor pool for $30.00 pesos, that’s a little under $2.00 USD, habeeb it…

As soon as we arrived, me and Ricardo noticed that the others, Shava, Mel and Chots, where staring at the water concerned, well except for Shava who was actually IN the water. Now, for those who don’t know me…I have REAL SERIOUS issues with everything that’s cold, except maybe drinks of course. Anyways, I asked the reason why they weren’t in the pool, and I learned that the water was freezing, now Ricardo, without flinching, went insane, I swear, and he jumped right into the water with yells and screams unheard of, now Shava, who was already swimming apparently appeared to enjoy it, but his expression told me otherwise. So after careful consideration, and much doubt, (and heckling)…well…to put it shortly…I went in! The water was unbelievably COLD! It felt hard on my body, my bones frozen, and…and…fine…I guess you got the idea… =3

We immediately got out, the swift, esporadic breeze giving us shivers with every step we took. We made a few calls and went to Deportivo San Angel and payed for the indoor pool heh~

D’Martlub’s pool really needs 400 babies in order to warm it up IYKWIM. We later laughed at our ordeal at San Angel’s Jacuzzi.

Hunger struck! So we went to the almost cheapest most delicious place to eat in Juarez (Where I live)…EL PUENTE! I ate pretty much Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner for under $6.00 bucks, I love my country.

Then we ended up the day (Just Chots and I remained from the initial party) enjoying like the capitalist swines we are…a Starbucks…

A day in my life. Now, back to programming those end semester projects! D:
