VOX

VOX - This is the name of the final project I'm developing for my diploma.
It's a text-to-speech application for Romanian. The main idea behind it: it produces artificial speech by concatenating prerecorded syllables. It's almost working (provided I have all the necessary syllables prerecorded for a given text), I only need to make the program "read" numbers, too.
Less than one week to do this, finish the written documentation , and find the inspiration for a convincing presentation :)) And a bit more than a week until it will all be over and I'll finally be enjoying my summer!

The Big News


I'm not sure this could still be called big news.. because I think that until now most of my friends already know about it (important: if you're reading this and so far I haven't told you about what happened, or what is going to, that doesn't necessarily mean that you're not my friend!! :D)

Anyway, to make it short: since August the 1st I'll be starting my first job ever!! - which is actually an internship, and seems to be a great one: at Microsoft Development Center in Copenhagen.
And the biggest thing is that I'll be living in Copenhagen for 1 year!! Can't wait for it.
O.K., now that I've said(written) it, doesn't sound(look) like a big thing anymore. But I'm still happy.

I'm back!!

Hi, it's been a long time since my last time here.
The truth is that I'm not at all a lazy person, and that my life is very far from being boring (OK, this is only my personal opinion, some people may think otherwise). And not that I have secrets or I find it hard to share my experiences with you all..
Anyway, my point is that it is kind of hard writing daily things about my life in a blog, instead of just living my life - especially because I don't have a lot of readers here so far, and also because I use other methods for staying in touch with my friends - like actually meeting them(yes!!!), phone calls, instant messengers, e-mails bla bla bla.
That was until recently, when I got some great news about something that will surely change the way I let my friends know what's been up with me recently.
Don't want to spoil the surprise, so I can only promise I'll get back to this soon.
Until then, just want to say that I'm so happy and grateful for what I have and that I'll be back!
See you soon :)
