Hey there everyone. :) Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate it. Aside from me completing the last of my finals on Tuesday there's nothing terribly exciting happening with my life. When I say last I do mean last because, aside from any freakish final exam grading mishaps, I expect to be graduating soon. It's nice to do exceedingly well throughout the school quarter, enough that a passing grade is practically insured even if you bombed the final, but until I see my 2 A's it doesn't hurt to take a "Murphy's Law" mentality just in case. Hope for the best but be prepared for the worst is a good philosophy to live by I think.

Part of me is totally relieved that all of the course work for my Bachelor's Degree is finally behind me. Another part of me, however is going to miss being a scholar. School, at least for the last 5 years has seemed to bring out the best in me and I fear the kind of person I may become if I don't have anything relevant to focus my passion with. Although I do have my part time job to help supplement my income, I am only earning a small fraction of my potential.

As such, the hardcore search for a full-time job begins this weekend. I've been passively job searching online through Monster.com and the like, making sure my profile is filled, my resume is posted and such but it hasn't yielded me any significant results thus far, so I'm going to have to get "medieval" on this muthafucka. With a good employer match I really believe I can go far in my career. I just need a company that has use for my talent and drive and of course will pay me accordingly. I know it's out there somewhere.

Although I am getting hopelessly underpaid in my internship, I am picking up a virtual shit load of ideas on how to make money off a website. Basically, I can take whatever I'm doing for my employer and apply that knowledge to a website of my own. I may take some of my spare time and start doing some financial analysis to see just how feasible it's all going to be. I need a new computer, some development software a web host and a domain. If it comes through, it will be off the hook.

I do have other concerns swimming through my head like the heinous lack of sexual action in my life, but I'll save that kind of bitching for another entry. Instead, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, I'll be thankful for the good things that are happening in my life. I'm especially happy that my degree is finally finished and I am thankful for all the opportunities that enabled me to achieve that end.

Anyway, I'm off to spend Thanksgiving with the family and to get my Turkey consumption on...
