I haven't updated my blog in sometime so I figured it's time since it has quite a bit has happened since my last post. First off I finished school finally, so we'll give that a big ole' w00t, cause w00t was word of year in 2007. Let's hope it dies with all the other trend-whorish terms like pwn, noobs, leet, brootal, bra, and hope it goes the way of the "I'm Rick James bitch" fad.

Anyway I have my Software Engineering degree now, which is really exciting cause I get to pay back heap loads of loans, go college! But I did get a job as a Robotics Engineer so now I get to help program robots to enslave the human race, or just automate manufacturing, the line is blurry.  But I will get to travel quite a bit which should be pretty cool considering I'm getting to travel on the man's dollar. I didn't get that job at google, my last phone interview my PC took a shit like in a minute into the call so that pretty much severed my umbilical for any resources. So I think it was meant to not happen, but my situation worked out for the best.

Now I am living down state with the ole' droneBox crew (Fresh and Chooch). Bill's women (Sarah) and Chooch's women (Emi) are living in Fresh's house with us too so we are all one big happy family. Bill's house has finally been finished re-modeling so we have a pool table, darts, stocked bar, the works, needless to say it's a pretty kick ass living situation.  It's also bad ass too because Chooch and I get to start jamming out again together so we'll probably be laying down some tracks soon. I will also start training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai kickboxing again at the warrior way again so I'm super pumped about that.

My last semester at tech was pretty fun, by far the most fun I've had a semester in a long time.  Thanks Rich, Laura, Toima, Nicole, Griep, Rico, Dave, Jess, Marcel & Stefon (Lutsch mein schwanz you crazy germans), The Mark Andrasko Experience, and anyone that made the semester fun.

Some things of note I finished working on the greenphone grant program I was working on, I also have been accepted for the first round of the Knight News Challenge, so hopefully I will be hearing soon if I made it to round 2, if I do then I just have to make it to round 3 and I'll be getting to work on some more open source software that will be funded, so I got my fingers crossed for that. I am also in the works of working on a project with 3 people from Microsoft that I'm pretty excited about as well.

So 2008 is starting off fairly well for me so far, and I'll try to keep headway
