Abstract

FROM BIRTH

I Starodubov Vadim, was born in 1987 in Lida town of then SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLIC Belarus. Actually, it remains a republic now, but Soviets and various social elements have disappeared somewhere. Despite that Belarus is a good country, very similar to Cuba, but all of it the other way around. All the roads are full of not old Soviet cars, but are overcrowded by completely modern VolksWagens and Audi 10-15 years younger abovementioned Volgas and Pobedas. Also, there are problems with sea in Belarus and in general, when I was born there was 20 centigrades frost.

This is in Donetsk December,10 is the warm and rainy day, and Lida te weather is severe, even in summer.

I can not tell more about this country of cosmetics, textiles and the pine forests , and according to the task requirements this is not needed.

Immediately after my first Anniversary, I went to Leningrad, it also was a Soviet then. I do not remember anything else because of the small age. People say it is beautiful city.

Then, somewhere around 1994, I, trustingly, unsuspecting child, was brought to a strange house, where children ran here and there and there was a lot of rooms. Something dark and slippery in my breast suggested that kindergarten looks differently.

SCHOOL!

This terrible word has always frightened the children of all ages and generations, starting with the total campaign against illiteracy arranged in 20th of the XXth century. In my case there was not retreat way. I studied at the same 76th School as my father, and where, at that time, his mother worked. So, I entered the school easily and simply. It was useless to behave like idiot.

I was well known there.

Although this did not prevent to get some bad and satisfactory ratings, right up to the transition to secondary school. There my affairs went better. I am always happy about logical courses and disciplines, with no need to remember mountains of useless information, and where you can get it through reflection.

In the 5th class I first thought about the bike.

Satisfactory ratings have finished in the 5th class, probably teachers spent all stocks on the side. Soon the good ratings followed them. By 11th class only two problems remained: dusty village roads in my district and the need to use them to go to school. But there a new need appeared – to travel to training courses at the Institute.

Oh, sorry, University. Even so: Donetsk National Technical University (all say this is not correct but I like it). There I firstly realized that the City is not as big as I imagined earlier, because I had to dangle a lot. Especially taking into account number of new acquaintances, wth who can be ... cannot...

In that long ago 2004, I was not aware that man who regularly comes to our classes later will try to deduct every student (and getting ahead, he could do it twice. In the 2008 and 2009).

Oh yes, in 2004 I entered the University. Not to Computer Systems as people mistakenly believe. I managed to deceive everyone and with extraordinary efforts to enter System Programming. I hate math.

University Itself

I want a bicycle because away from the University I am bored.

Year 2005 has arranged things and threw me into an unforgettable group of Computer Systems-04.

All the charm of the English group is not in English language, although it has a huge plus in the study of technical English, and not the slightly different training program (which like to underline those studying in Russian groups), but small, only 10 people, size of the native group CS-04.

Yes it is small size makes it the pride to say: «In our group there are 30% of A-grade», - and no matter if it is only 3 people, but it sounds good.

Moreover, English group offers the largest number of activists. In our group there were 10 active trade-unionists, 20% of active members of student Self-government, and another 30% of the group simply participated actively in the life of the faculty outside the University

In particular, under the auspices of Self-government I participated in the organization of 2 scientific Conferences ICT-2007 and ICT-2008. There we used results of my first software steps in PHP, but I will not show it to others anymore.

I was also a member of the University Scientific Council and of Selection Committee. I must say that Self-government seriously entertains and makes the University not just a boring building but sometimes the venue for the fun time. However, my partner, whom I led in this case, does not think so, but he has no other choice.

In general, the second - fourth courses displayed my preferences to hardware, but not to PHP software. All these Theory of Digital Automata, Computer Design, State Machines, up to the unforgettable MK-51 in a variety of equipment. Actually on MK-51 the interest to hardware ended - it became clear that to handle soldering iron and kick head against the wall when testing is not as good as to write programs in a friendly environment of MS Visual Studio. For truth to tell, my classmates blame me for the fact that I in «Hello, World» programm insert 10 C++ classes and a lot of objects. And I think that I'm right - Object Oriented Programming is still a progressive trend in programming, and so not only I think.

Cheers. I bought a bicycle. Finally a blue true dream of childhood came true. In the age of 19.

To tell the truth I was not happy too long.

STATE EXAMINATION

State Examination was not frightening. Frightening was the sudden appearance of an average score, Bachelor Degree certificate (multicolored) and the magistracy. Stop. Today there is no time to study PHP, JavaScript and htm.

5th COURSE IS VERY FRIGHTENING

Nonsense, I thought, and broke OFF..

It is really very difficult, but interesting. Never would I read about methods of computer sound transformation. And here was the most difficult Course Work. All salt was in ability to fully utilize terms of Object Oriented Programming for MS Windows. I passed it on the last day.

But the second semester is now. There is a diploma work in which I and my partner implement what we did not have the entire period of study at the university - Web-portal of the Faculty with a dynamic schedule and the possibility of communication with teachers.

We also plan to implement, when we certainly will, the possibility of viewing personal ratings, and a central file server with the educational process materials.

So it's time to learn PHP, JavaScript and HTML. It is not strange but htm is the most difficult. It is so *censored* unpredictable.

The End of Story.

Sincerely,
