Last Sunday I was one of those who played at the Piano Christmas Concert that my piano teacher had arranged for her students, and herself; although she only played two pieces. I played four pieces,1) Amelie from Montmartre – Comptine d’un autre ètè; 2) Schubert – Military March; 3) Chopin – Raindrop Prelude; and 4) Final Fantasy VII – Terra’s Theme. I didn’t have enough time to prepare for the Military March so I didn’t play that piece that good, not compared to the others. In the other pieces I just made some minor mistakes like accelerating in the difficult part of Amelie and some notes were played softer or louder than they should have been. But overall I’m satisfied with the whole concert :)

Of to school, there has been a lot of things to do lately, 2 assignment, 1 project, 1 piano concert and I was stressed the whole week. Actually I was too stressed one day to do anything, or at least I played some piano :P But now both assignments are done so I only have to focus on the project.

Anyway about the assignments; we were supposed to study a software system and identify breakdowns when a user interacts with it. We (me and my partner) chose Google Docs. We used an ethnographic approach to find out the breakdowns, more specific we used contextual inquiry and a kind of semi-informal interviews.

To make things short, we gave the four users in groups of two a scenario (a document that was printed out) and let them collaborate to recreate the document. We then asked some questions (semi-informal interview).

Our conclusion was that the users had a hard time finding and using features they never or rarely used. Some of these include: headings (which is a really good feature, use this if you are using Google Docs), table of contents, and footnote.

Well, that’s all from me, maybe I’ll do some updating during the Christmas holidays.

Yay, I’m finally done with the Interpreter assignment. It was quite easy, but I must say that I needed to stop and take a break sometimes just to figure out how I’d solve the ‘problem’.

I doubt any of you would like to have the source code, except if you need to do this assignment too. But I can at least give you a link to the doxygen documentation :)

Now I only have one more assignment, a Mancala/Kalah bot, to do then I’m all done and can get my Bachelor degree :)
