Alright so...

Classes have been going well these past few weeks.  So far things have been pretty easy.  I started playing World of Warcraft recently.  I had refused to play it for so long knowing that if I started it would consume a lot of my free time.  However several of my friends have been playing it for some time so they finally convinced me to start.

If they didn't offer to help me through the beginning and help me level I probably would have become disinterested early on but I have found it enjoyable.  It reminds me of the old Final Fantasy days.  Another reason I decided to try it out was because Alex Albrecht has ranted and raved about it for so long that I just had to give it a shot.

Anyways other than that not much is going on.  I will have to start posting some more.

Classes start next week...

Excited for classes to be starting next week.  I don't know why I'm excited for school but lately I have been really looking forward to school.  Hopefully this kind of motivation will keep up so that I can finish my degree finally.

Crud...

The power supply on my desktop just burned out.  Now I'm going to have to make a trip in the morning to get a new one.  Using an old laptop that is slow and probably will overheat and shut off any second.  Anyways its been a very slow week this week at work.

Well still waiting to see if I'm going to get my grant or not.  It will determine whether I get my MacBook Pro sooner rather than later.  So what did everyone think of the MacWorld Apple Keynote?  Nothing really too exciting in my opinion.  I was glad to see that they finally updated the 17" MacBook Pro but I just can't afford one of those.  Plus the 15.4" is easier to travel with.

I was really hoping to hear that copy & paste and Picture Messaging was going to be on the iPhone.  Oh well hopefully they are working on it.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Internet!  Hope everyone had a safe and fun new years.  As you can probably tell by the lack of updates here that I have been pretty busy with work.  The holiday season has definitely been a long one.  Thankfully it is over and now things are going to slow down at work so I will have more time for updating here and get focused on school again.  I have registered for the next semester trying to get my degree done so that I can finally start my career in Web Design/Programming.  School is taking a little longer than I would have hoped for but I am happy to have finally found what I want to do with my life.

By they way for those that may have been wondering I have decided to get the MacBook Pro 2.8ghz Duo Core with 320gb HDD 7200rpm model.  I decided why not especially when I'm already going to be spending that much just go ahead and get the best one that is available.  So right now I'm just waiting for some grant money to come in and use what I have left for the semester on the MacBook Pro.

So what are some of your new years resolutions?  Here are a few of mine that I made.

-Spend more time with family.
-Work on getting a job in the Web Programming/Design field. (so that I can finally get out of retail)
-Go rock climbing more this year.
-Stop drinking sodas as much and drink more teas.  (ordered my first batch of teas from Adagio)
-Spend more time outdoors
-Take more pictures
-Start a Web Start Up or work with a Web Start Up
-Finish the year in A's in every class (got A's last semester)

Thats just a few.  They are a little broad I know but I know that I can accomplish them this year.

Holidays

The Christmas holiday is quickly approaching and it is getting even crazier at work.  As you probably have noticed I have not had the time to make an update in a while.  I love the holidays but work right now for me is just so crazy.  I need to get out of the job I'm at now and head to something else.  I just need to finish school first.

Well I've registered for the Spring Semester and I'm looking forward to the classes that I will be taking.

Slow week... thats gone by fast...

Its been a slow week at work but I can't believe it is already Friday.  Well now we are heading into Saturday but it just seems like the week flew by even though work seemed to be really slow.  Anyways all in all it was a pretty good week.  I received my Digg beanie in the mail today.   I'm sure a picture of it will appear at sometime on here.

Lately I've really been thinking about getting back into school full time.  I'm going to the Financial Aid office at school on Monday to talk about a few grants.  Would be nice to be able to finish sooner than later.  Other than that a busy weekend at work.  Hopefully get to do some other things this weekend.
