Graduation!
Hey guys, I know it has been forever since I have updated my blog. Things in Rolla have been a bit crazy. In the last week alone, this is what I have done:
Then it is off to pack like mad and get moved into an awesome apartment in Kansas City with J. From graduation to moving in less than two weeks. I can't wait. In addition to having Lance become vomitous on the four hour trip we'll also have a new addition in the car. Because J wants a guard dog we've decided to get something keep her and Lance company. I might have had a tad too much input because we are definitely looking at a new litter of cocker spaniel puppies for sale. They aren't cheap, but they are tons cheaper than scotties (J's favorite breed).
After all that I've gone through in college, the most I feel right now is a huge relief that it is all over. Somehow I don't think I'm going to miss UMR anytime soon. Too many memories associated with stress and homework. I'll miss the friends, but my brain hurts from all the cramming.
So close to done I can taste it. Don't worry about the Land of the Nerds blog - I'll still be updating my crazy adventures. It just might have to be about Kansas City (Geektopia) instead of Rolla (Nerdland). For those of you that haven't seen it already, here is a copy of my senior picture.
Grrrrr baby.
- Simulated a campus wide network on the computer and wrote a 20 page development plan for a generic corporation (and aced it)
- I made a computer simulation of an 8051 microprocessor with a 40 page report (the tiny chip that makes calculators work. It is also used to control the electronics in your car)
- My group completed the JoggerTrack senior project and turned in a three ring (too many pages to count) binder containing memos, user manuals, presentations, development plans, and stuff
- I had a final in networks (only got a B)
- I wrote an online survey for my English class in HTML (the responses are sent directly to my email)

RF: Thanks! And the major makes more sense now. I'll be checking in on your blog so be prepared!
MST: LOL! Yeah, I can see how that phrase could get you in trouble with the kiddos...
Watch out for the puppy, too. You might have twice the vomitous goodness for the trip.
Have a good last couple of weeks!
abbs: You actually got me blushing. *red cheeks* You're on for that dance!
sunny: Because our apartment only allows older pets, the puppy wasn't allowed. Oh well, perhaps later when a house is in the mix...
