Internuts

So my post last week was unlike most… I got really nerdy and wrote about some tech stuff. While I know most people who read this don’t, in any way, care about that stuff there are some who do. I submitted my post to Digg, posted it on SA and got some pretty cool results. The post ended getting picked up by EngadgetHD and a few other blogs. Most of the feedback was positive, and the ones who disagreed at least disagreed with the content and not my writing skills.
So that was fun… the internet can be surprising though, who would have thought that something I wrote on a lazy sunday afternoon would be seen by thousands and thousands of people. For the record my page is visited by an average of 800 unique viewers a month. I get trackbacks from blogs on almost every post and remember that silly boston market graphic? That has popped up on some random people’s myspace pages.

Kinda weird huh

I finished my paperwork for the next part of my degree; I start the bachelor’s program in October. While filling out part of the forms I almost had a heart attack. I misunderstood part of the tuition explanation and for about an hour thought that my education was going to cost me about $35,000 more than it really is. I even posted about it (The post was taken down about an hour later). Well after talking to some people about it, I was all wrong and all is well. But for a while there I really didn’t know how I was ever going to pay for all this stuff.
The two sections of the bachelor’s degree (Film production and Visual FX) have now been folded back together and there is an elective sort of system for picking classes. I’m glad I no longer have to choose between the two, but now I get to make like 20 different decisions about classes instead… oh well. I’ll get to take some cool classes this way.
There is one roadblock about the bachelor’s program though, scheduling. There are only night classes from here on and that does not work with my current work schedule.

So while I don’t know what is going to happen I have started working on my normal paper resume again just incase.

  1. Well it looks like God is working in your life concerning the degree program so I’m confident that He can workout the scheduling also! Leave it in His hands, do what you can do and don’t stress over it!

  2. OK…RETARDED!!!!! I can’t believe neither of your vids were chosen as semi-finalists. That is a crock. All Heinz execs are blind…and stupid…and have no sense of humor. So there.
