During these two weeks, I took a break from everything I was working on and spent most of my time with my friends and family. The little spare time I got went into Project Euler problems. I managed to solve the first 25 using C and will probably post my code in the days to come.

I also received my marks for my first term and I have to say that I am pretty happy with what I got. This term is more focused on computer science related subjects with courses such as Functional Programming and Data Abstraction (using Scheme and C++) and Digital Circuits and Systems. I also have two economy classes which is something I enjoy a lot. It is also the beginning of the hiring process for this summer co-op term.

And, as of right now, I am reading books on ruby and ruby on rails to improve my skills. I did a lot of small scripts and projects using this language/framework, but the MVC concept is still new to me. I am now looking at creating a complete, usable web application so I need to expand my knowledge a bit more. Stay tuned for more.
