Wake up song...or Damn Annoying Cuco that ignores a morning sunday

5a.m early morning. To be honest I'm going back to bed as soon as I finished to write this. For god sake normally 5a.m was my bedtime back in my student life, good times. Well, I'm not here to prove that I'm not a morning person instead I just organized my "research" material (papers, tutorials, essays, websites...). Right now I need to define my priorities, so here a list of what I got:

• XML: To be honest I know XML, but I need to review XSLT, XPath and XML Schema.


• Ontology: I do love Data Organization and how each component is related. I'm going to review some concepts and later RDF and OWL.


• Ruby: Well I just started reading and writing code in ruby so I'm going to do a "full-course" here. I got a lot of tutorials, examples and the API documentation.


• AI in Games: Ok, not only game but I guess this a good place to start.


• Game Dev: Mostly related to Ruby and XNA (Microsoft). I'm thinking in a RPG plataform like Final Fantasy Tactics, Fire Emblem, a tactical militar game with resources control or a Starcraft/Red Alert Game but Turn-based.


• Japanese: I need to review Hiragana, start Katakana and learning some basics words and sentences. Sadly my favorite language course (iknow.co.jp) can only be accessed through a web browser and I don't how long I'm going to have internet access here.

Anyway, I guess I have a lot of things to read and learn for the next few weeks. This week I should start reading ruby on rails and writing some code, reviewing XML or reading about AI concepts when i need some time away from the big bright red gem. I got a japanese e-book here but I still need to review my hiragana before reading it. I guess I'm going to search today (again) for a hiragana flashcard program. I have two programs here but I have to say: they sucks a lot.

Time to go back to my bed. o/
