Let's sum it up - Final Blog

1 comments
Hey hey..
Time flies..

Today im going to have my last lecture of the year..
Yea, im having dayoff on thursday n friday, which means, time to do the exam preparation just now..

Submitted the assignment already.. Im starting to answer the past exam papers, and focusing my brain more to the last year paper (aha.. I think i got ur indirect message POD)..
I dont know if I am going to email POD for the answers that I've prepared, but yea..
that is a really nice idea.. Very nice of you POD

Now, what have I got in this subject for the last 13weeks?
I learned what BI is..
...I have no background before and suddenly I feel like I know quite a bit of it

I learned Visual Studio, including the Business Analysis Services
...I've always hated Visual Studio before, anything that I did on it is fully for assignment purposes only that I dont really care if I really understand the steps im doing or not, but this is not the case for this subject

I get to know MDX a bit
...Somehow I know that it will be an important thing you need to know

I love Excel a lil bit more
...Maybe this is not what this subject suppose to be, in fact I suppose to not like it so much in a way, but the knowledge i gain in Excel is just awesome

I got another option for my career preference
...This subject has definitely be a very interesting one, that I might consider this to be my career preference, but I definitely think that my assignment work is not enough to be my portfolio in this subject

~luv luv luv this subject so much
I should mention the forum has been a big help, again..
And also twitter, screenr and other things that POD and the others has contributed for the sake of this subject haha

I hope I can do well in the exam, and boost up my mark.. Somehow i got a feeling that Steve will mark me a bit harder than the others.. Two or three people told me how high his expectation is.. hhhhhhh *fingercrossed*

Week12

0 comments
Argh.. its 6:18am monash time, caulfield campus, building b, level3..
but its fun!!
i just finished my assignment..
and you know what i want to do now?
no , i have not submit it yet..
just does not feels good submitting assginment very early in the morning like this.. just like sending emails at 2oclock in the morning and your lecturer will be "what? 2am?" hahaha..

So so so...
assignment has been so exciting..
the more i dot it, the more i get so into it..
i've been slacking around a lot before..
deep down inside my heart i know that i will spend a lot of time on this assignment.. but instead of starting early, i decided to just do my other assignment until i only got this one left..
then i really start getting panic, since i still has not finalized my hierarchy design up till Thursday..

So many things happening.. one thing i learned, the .mdb and the server version really makes a difference.. the server version is a lot lot more better and nice to see..
another thing i learned, you can not change your data source and data source view and hoping that your dimension will still work.. especially if you use the mdb file and then switching to the server version.. something about the name and the dimension tables just not identical..
more.. you do need to spend some time deciding your hierarchy and other design..
even more.. good interface really give a nice final touching to your application if you ever going to show it to real people in the industry :)

i think i did quite good on my assignment.. even though i should say that definitely is not my very best.. i should have set my mind and settle a lil bit so that a better and well developed design is produced..

ops.. forget to say..
screenr, assignment forum and twitter has been a very very helpful..
thx to technology
and to POD who i think has been online and reply to questions ASAP really..
