August 13, 2001 - nothing to much drastic changing with Real Life.
Still doing the school thing..trying to get more into the web design aspect of things rather then all this bs core class stuff like business etc. (which I said when younger that I would NEVER take a business class in my life and now I am) Finding the money to buy web design programs is a real pain in the arse and realizing that computers are not a cheap thing to keep up with. *smiles*
Work- still enjoying the company i'm at and being challenged lately with Graphics Design work, mainly dealing with floor plans and architecture. Starting to really like it. Learning to use paintshop pro has been a kick and definitely a fun program to work with.
As always..not to mention to much about my "personal" life but things are going good. Finding myself long distance from a guy that definitely wanders his way into my dreams easily. Traveling back and forth and missing each other in between is well worth it due the happiness he brings me. Even when apart he brings a smile upon my face.
/end mushiness.....
June 29, 2001 (long update...guess that happens after not doing it for like 6 plus months)
Haven't had a chance in a long time to update this page soooo decided to finally get my friends off my back.
LOTS has changed in the past 6 months let alone the chaos in the past month. Moved into a new apartment, which by the way I LOVE! Live with a girl from work named oddly enough, Heather also. Tad confusing at times but i'm loving the new place. MUCH closer to work and well definitely an incredible apartment complex.
Speaking of work....started at a new job in April and am loving it.
Also, guess the biggest change for me is i'm back in school again for a degree i'd never expect myself 5 years ago to even think about going for. Despite my hesitation on becoming a "computer freak" i've fallen into it some. Going from being a biochem major to a programming major is pretty wild. Different ways of thinking yet very interesting so far. My degree will be in Information Systems Programming and Internet Development. I guess everyone is asking ..."why did you switch majors?" Plain and simple...I want to design web pages and this major fits with that plus for some reason computers come easy to me. My dream of becoming a doctor will probably still live on with me but I love the creative side of designing and have a knack of sorts with computers.
Schedule last semester was boring and the basics...felt like I was back in high school all over again. English, Math, and Computer Logic. Computer logic was the toughy...whole new way of thinking really puzzled me. Can honestly say ..that class sucks. Basically I was working M-F 7 am till 4 pm and then going to school M/W/F from 5:30 till 10ish...putting me home around at 11pm..making for some long days to say the very least.
Started my new semester this week and so far have C++, Technical Writing, and trying to get myself out of Windows for preschoolers and into something a little more challenging. In school 4 nites a week this semester but luckily not as late of classes as last semester.
Trying to work full time and attend school full time is a real challenge at times and i'm becoming quite used to functioning on little sleep and lots of mt. dew. Not to mention that my new apartment has brought me closer to friends and waking up my social life to almost near chaos. (Too many bars within stumbling distance hehe)
I guess people are also wondering about the personal life of me. I'm not one to talk much about the who's and what's so i'll just keep it short. Yes, someone has captured my thoughts. Things happen when you least expect them. He walked into my life and took grasp of my heart and lives in my dreams. (now wasn't that mushy?)
will update as things happen.....or as I have time.
