After the disappointment of being unable to find a job in the summer time where all I wanted was a retail job for 3 months, I am back at it again with the hunt for a Co-Op position.

While there are positions posted on the Co-Op website, I need to use my connection and network and hope that someone knows someone that works at an IT computer that hires co-op student. So, if any of you works for an IT company, let me know. I can send you my cover letter and resume your way until I get my online portfolio up.

Since I adore lists, here’s a list of what I’ve been up to since my last update:

  • School has been crazy. I can barely keep up with it since there are all these classes and they’re all new to me. Here’s a list of my courses this semester:
    • Object-Oriented Programming with Java
    • Procedural Programming in C
    • Relational Database Systems
    • Computer Organization/Architecture
    • Discrete Mathematics
    • Business Communications 2
  • I am a blogger for BCIT’s MyLife blog. I have two entries up there currently. I’m going to post my third entry today. You get to read about my school life. It’s actually pretty interesting.
  • The weather is gross. I don’t like it.
That is it. Time for class!

The Birthday Post

15/365 - Happy Birthday!

“Unlimited juice? This party’s gonna be off the hook!”

– is what we said ALL DAY.

But yeah, birthday and all that. Another year older. It’s hard to think you’re “grown up” nowadays when you’re still living at home and going to school. At least for me it is. When I actually have a full-time job and move out, I’ll probably feel like an actual adult, doing adult-sy things. Until then, I’m just a kid living at home. But that’s a few more years down the road.

All and all, a great birthday. FREE JUICE(S). STEAK DINNER. CAKE LATER. I still have a birthday coupon for ice cream and have to pick up my birthday gift from Sephora. LOL. I went on a spree to find free things. No Baskin’ Robbins though. The ones that I knew existed all closed down. It just never took off here with so many other options to go to.

PS: Let’s home this Oracle version works. I need to pre-do my database lab so I can start on the assignment tomorrow during lab.

Some Kiddie Snacks

It’s back! Okay, it’s just school, but it’s back… tomorrow. On top of it, I found buyers for my 3 textbooks. I am getting an okay price for it, so I can’t complain. I still have a giant stack of books leftover from my days at SFU. SIGH, they probably total to at least 300-400 bucks. At least, if not 500-600 bucks.

So to prepare for school, I finally made that batch of Rice Krispies that I said I would make months ago. Of course I ended up needing my mother’s help (like every single time). But I think it turned out great… other than I might have put too much butter and mini-marshmallows in after the first batch dried up from cooling down. And also I put all the marshmallow in the bowl in one go. Uh yeah, that’s why I prefer to clean up rather than cook.

PS: What a comeback from the Blue Jays!
