graduation

/EXISTENCE
I started this blog in an effort to help me follow through with my personal projects in learning about technology but forgot to take into account one very important and significant factor: I'm graduating this semester with a BA in Computer Science.


So yeah, I don't seem to have much time outside of assignments and my employment and when I do have time I just want to slack off. I'll play video games or watch a show, but playing with my computers is not really on the list of priorities. Example: yesterday I'm playing the open beta of Diablo 3 (which could be a post of its own) when I get a text from my classmate asking if I was coming in to work on our CPU project for Architecture. I think, "Oh yeah, that thing..." and tell my friend I'm playing Diablo 3 with I need to go. I got to the computer lab at about 7pm and didn't leave until midnight. Ugh...


That being said, I already have plans to take off the rest of May after graduation to do stuff for me. This includes: working on my personal web site, working on my dad's web site, setting up Doppelgänger, migrating my current server to Doppelgänger, playing video games, and hanging out with friends I haven't had time to visit with. I can't express enough that I'm so ready to be done with school. I've been done mentally since last fall for that matter. But I'd be stupid for not following through with my education. It's the smartest thing I've done in my life and will likely be the most worthwhile for the remainder of my life, aside from finding someone I want to spend the rest of my life with.


Of course, I have to make it through graduation first...
