I went to an engineering graduate expo at the Melbourne University yesterday. I've never been on the Melbourne University campus before and it kind of felt nostalgic to be on an actual university campus again; not like those sorry excuses for a campus like CQU or RMIT. I could see the university has been around for a long time because of the old building structures. According to the presentation at the expo, the university engineering college was established back in 1861. From the looks of the campus, it looked like a significant amount of money has been invested. Good thing they had refreshments there which, made the whole trip worthwhile. I was actually accompanying someone who is interested in the "Master of Engineering" program. Its 2-3 years long Full-Time, 3-4 years Part-Time.
If I could ever go back and do it again, I would rather study Literature, Law, Business, or Medicine. Such power I could have wielded. I can't even remember what made me choose to go into IT in the first place and the fact, that I can't recall the reason why, scares me. I'm afraid the reason might be so regrettable that my mind may have repressed the memory.
Being in IT is like being a clerk in British India. Born into bondage to take orders from your Dark Overlords. Just a facilitator to the evil empire's grand exploitation scheme. They educate you just enough to make you useful for their own gain, but not enough to grow or be independent. They just use you up and spit you out.
