This week is pretty busy at work.
I need to prepare a presentation for Friday. In this presentation I'll have to report to the group on current and near future work for my team.

Then I have to dish out some plan for a year-long project. I started today and, well, I didn't even know what software to use ! Eventually I settled for GanttProject as most people seem to dislike MS Project.. but GanttProject does have a few bugs and the features seem to be lacking. It's pretty good, but still.. I would like at least to custom color the background of the columns for example..

Anyhow it's interesting to schedule projects. In this case there is a lot of wild guessing to do. So, I take the outline (divided by year's quarters) from my boss and I progressively add more details in a hierarchical fashion.
Many details will be missing, some things will require more time, some less time but still, if you don't at least try to plan things, they may never get done 8)

Another thing I have to do this week, well for tomorrow, it's a new attempt to study math in our group. It's mostly going to be useful for those that aren't programmers (but certainly also always for programmers as well !) but because it's in Japanese for me it's mostly a Japanese language study.
In fact this time the appointed "teachers" are me and a Japanese colleague. My role for now is to translate the terms in English by tomorrow (almost 1 AM here !) and then work in concert with the coworker to somehow teach math+English+Japanese depending on the individuals 8)
