Hi everyone,

Today our first day at work. We arrived around 9.30am (which was early, so we heared) José Varela gave us a quick tour, and introduced us to everyone who was already there. We got an own (neat looking) office for the 3 of us, where we can work in silence. About 2 hours later, we got a brief explanation about the 3 projects, and after that told us Mr Filipe would arrive in the afternoon to already give a detailed explanation about a project. We also had to decide who would work on which project.

Since project 2 and 3 are focussing on the same ‘problem’ Alexander and I decided to work together on those, and Wesley (who rather worked alone) agreed to work on project 1, which was focussed on an other ‘problem’. In the afternoon, when Mr Filipe arrived, he introduced us to Ricardo Ameixa, a student of the University where Mr Filipe teaches. He had already been working on a component related to our project #3, so he’s assigned as the responsible for that project. He explained in details what the problem was, and possible ways of solving it. We decided to do some research in the methods he proposed, and some things we thought might be useful as well. At about 18.30 pm we ‘checked out’ (just before lunch, we registered our fingerprints on the biometric system, it’s like a punchcard system, but more sophisticated).

And that was our first day at work.. I wonder what tomorrow brings

Good night!
