School's Starting

Well, the Spring semester is upon me (starting Monday) . And I have 2 of the 4 classes I need. I will need to crash 2 classes and hope that I get in. Otherwise I might have to add another semester to my school year. If I can get in those classes and the 4 remaining in Fall, I will have my bachelors. I even spent $75 to register me for ceremony and diploma fees. Of which I only wanted to pay for the diploma but they wouldn't let me. Anyways, as soon as that paperwork goes through I will be considered a graduating senior which will give me the ability to register classes first for next semester. It also gives me priority on wait lists for teachers.

Wish me luck, I really want to get finished with this degree.

Update:

Due to school budget cuts and the immense number of students needing the exact same classes I am taking to graduate this semester, I was only able to take two classes this semester. Which means I now fall under a part-time student. Hopefully I will be able to take some summer classes to catch up and I still am striving to graduate Fall 2009.

Las Vegas Trip

Well, I know it's almost 2 weeks since I went to Vegas, but hey, I was hoping I could get some pictures. But after looking at the pictures I think I wont post them :P

Anyways, it was OK for the most part. The CES shows really didn't have much there besides Creative's Zii, A new 3-D TV that doesn't require the glasses (will still hurt your eyes though), and SanDisk's new format for their memory cards that is said to allow 2TB (yes, 2,000GB, or 2,000,000MB, or 2,000,000,000KB) into one SD card. I think they called it SD XC. The biggest and most interesting display was Microsoft's Cloud section. If you don't know Cloud is Microsoft's tag name for all entertainment into one. It is the central location (figurative nothing physical) that puts the TV, mobile, PC, Digital Entertainment, and gaming together. The Windows 7 display was my favorite in fact I put Windows 7 on my laptop and so far I am loving it. Runs faster than Vista and already I have less compatibility problems with it (And it's only a beta version).

The best part of the trip was the night I spent in The Mirage hotel. I have never ever slept so well. The bed was AWESOME! In fact I didn't wake up until 11am the next morning. Then again I wasn't in bed until 5am but hey.

I spent some time with co-workers and found out they enjoy gambling, even when the odds are against them. I did gamble a little bit, I put $60 in a video poker machine and left the hotel (Hotel Wynn) with $260. So all in all not a bad night.

It was fun, could have been a lot funner but hey, better than playing WoW on the weekend right?

I'm using the Accelerator now to post this blog, it's quite useful actually especially when you see something cool online and want to post it directly to your blog. There is no copy paste, just highlight, right click, post to blog. It's convenient.
