We then evacuated to another room (computer laboratory)  where the teacher was a good friend of Ma’am Gigi. We were able to find wired internet in there though one of the lab computer’s UTP cable. Wayne started installing but ended up having same problems he encountered while installing in his laptop. He must also install LAMP to Ma’am Gigi’s computer instead of using XAMPP which encounters an error when compiling Do-MySQL. But the alloted time for the meeting wasn’t enough since Wayne still needs to go to work, he then brought Ma’am Gigi’s laptop with him and hopefully be able to install everything WIO needs, and fix his laptop.

V for Vendetta

After our meeting, I went to Rogelio’s place to hang out (yes, that’s a pattern meeting -> Rog’s place). We watched the movie V for Vendetta, I know its an old movie but I was only able to watch it today. The story revolved around the main character – V who seeks for a peaceful country and revenge for those people who had done bad things to him which were already in a high position in the government. He then died in the end contented with his plans fully accomplished.  I liked the plot of the movie and the main character V. He was a skillful fighter, a master of strategies and a good cook. I was moved by his will to have revenge and how he died gracefully in the end.

Arriving at my house, there was no internet connection at Windows and I needed to be online, so I decided to use Ubuntu instead (this often happens). So I installed Visual Paradigm in Ubuntu, its a good thing that it is available to a wide range of operating systems. I had problems with VP having a blank screen and can’t further continue in installation, the easy solution on that problem is turning off the effects on Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects, and everything should run smoothly. Also, the VP in Ubuntu is faster than the one installed in Windows, so I was having more fun creating diagrams here in Ubuntu. Now, my diagrams are finished and I’ll be moving on to the user interface prototypes.

Rogelio and me watched a movie called Monster House which is a 3D animated movie. I was first amazed by the detail in their backgrounds and objects which almost looks real. I liked the way on how they play with the situation by focusing on an object to illustrate an event to occur.

Throughout the movie, I had an idea on what’s going to happen next or at least some answers on the questions on my head, which in the end were correct – the movie was predictable. Maybe because its a movie targeted for kids, but was enjoyable nonetheless.

Train Heartnet

After the movie, I watched Black Cat – an anime series. I was able to watch 5 episodes straight. The anime was quite interesting, with the story revolving about sweepers (captures criminals without killing them) and erasers (kills their target without hesitation) and how they mingle up with each other with similar targets but with different missions.

I like the main character Train Heartnet in the earlier episodes where he still is serious and somewhat coldhearted. He is an eraser working for Chronos, but when he met Saya (a sweeper) he decided to quit Chronos and suddenly had a change of heart. Though I still haven’t seen the other episodes, their opening song shows that Train will have a change of clothing also, which really suck. But, I still have the interest on watching the whole anime bit by bit.

Currently I’m making the Sequence Diagrams of WIO. There are many more types of UML diagrams that I need to make, which means more of brainstorming and staying up late for me. These UML diagrams are supposed to be submitted on December 1 as a part of the design phase of our system. We also have to present our work in front of the whole class. Here is a sample of the sequence diagram I created, which shows the process of logging into WIO. Now, I’ll be going back on working with these UML diagrams.
