Thursday High
Thursday turned out to be an interesting day. I used some MAJOR problem-solving skills while working on the database and got about 99% of my problems worked out. My group and I were due to meet with the professor to talk about the databse at 6:30pm, and knowing that we still had some kinks to smooth out I decided to leave work at 4:30pm. I expected to make it at school by 5:30... boy was I wrong... on the way to school.... I hit some major traffic... we were at a dead stop... notice the nice bright red brake lights.
So anyway... in this particular class there are only two groups... ours, and group 1. Well group one decided (and kinda demanded) to go first. We didn't mind, because, honestl, we needed added time... Well the professor didn't sound too impressed with their database. Appraently some of their information was incorrect in the first phase of it, which caused the rest of the database to be incorrect. Well (as bad as this sounds) I was a little relieved... because I truly thought our database was crappy. Well regardless, by the time we met with the professor we were as put together as we were going to be... as we were explaining it to him, he seemed impressed, he told us we had a good thing going. (I was stoked) well there was one problem I couldnt figure out, but when I presented it to him, he couldn't either (that felt good too). Well 30 minutes later, he still couldn't figure it out... so we gave him a copy of the databse and he said he would figure it out and send it back to us so we can start working on our Power Point. I was soo soooo relieved. Well we finished up at like 10:15pm... and when I got on the freeway... I hit more traffic... gees... getting home at 10ish ususally takes me (at most) 15 minutes.... tonight... it took me 45.... what the heck... and again... pretty little red lights. OK so I can't up load the pictures... but trust me it sucked to be in traffic...but knowing that I really knew what I was doing in MS Access made it all ok! :)

Shame about the traffic but fab news about your database! Reading your blog, it's been clear that you've been worrying about it for a while. I'm so pleased that you've made such great progress :-)

Congrats on the database ! Know it has to be a great relief to have part of the project done.
Hope you get to enjoy at least part of the weekend. :)
