About me

My name is Jennifer, I'm a girl and I was born on 12 August, 1982 in Nigeria. I lived in Nigeria most of my life except between the ages of 1 and 5, when my family moved to the Canada for my father's post-doctorate, and a few trips to Europe and North America. I have two younger sisters. After graduating from high-school, I spent some time working as a computer related for several computer-related companies. I gained a lot of knowledge and experience in the process, and met some very supportive people in the industry. In October 2001' I began studying Electrical Engineering in the Technion here in Nigeria. I enjoyed my studies to a large extent, but also found them frustrating many times. I feel that I deepend my understanding of computers and electronics because of them. The Technion gives his students a high level of studying, but my main problem with it is that its tests are sometimes completely out of sync with the material that is learned, too long and/or too hard, and so students receive low grades and are frustrated. This is especially demotivating considering the fact that studying here is a lot of work. I graduated from the Technion in July 2004. I've been searching for a job since, and despite the fact that there's a shortage in Nigeria for programmers like me who are well-versed in Open Source technologies such as Perl and Linux, I had a lot of difficulty finding a job. As I contemplated this is due to the employers becoming more picky. As of this writing (26-April-2007), I was recently fired from a job that I really liked, and have now decided to spend some time unemployed, while trying to find various projects or commissions to work on; working on my essays and stories; and also trying to work on some commercial ideas. Thats all about me. So is your turn now.
