Exciting news!

I finished everything I needed to get in for school this last Monday and just found out today that I got an A in all three of my classes!!! That brings my overall GPA, between Chemeketa and OIT, to a 3.52!!! My GPA at just OIT is 3.55 and my GPA with my core classes is 3.75. How great is that.

On top of that, I have a phone interview with Microsoft this this Friday at 2:30pm. Wish me luck if you get a chance. Until then I’m going to do all that I can to prepare for it, and also spend some time applying everywhere else I have in mind.

J!

After five years, I’m happy to say that this last Tuesday, I finally received my Associates degree in Network Technology from Chemeketa Community College!

Fall term is coming to an end, which means I have a lot left to do in a short amount of time.  This next Monday I have my senior project design to turn in and my OpenGL Graphics class to finish up and get my project turned in.  I have a good amount to do on both, so wish me luck.

On top of school work I also have my six-month internship coming to an end December 28th.  It’s hard to believe that it’s already been five months since I started working here and it’s coming to an end so soon.  🙁

This new year brings on a whole bunch of new challenges that I’ll have to face.  No longer getting my nice paycheck from Garmin, and having to push myself to the extremes with five classes this term and five the next.  I’ll at least be able to get paid for the work I do for Campus Activities which I start when I return and will also be taking back the presidency position for the Oregon Tech Game Developers.

With so much to do in just six more months of school, I’m quite stressed.  But I know it will all pay off in the end!

Until next post.
