I'm done!

Well, I'm finally done. I just submitted my last assignment after doing two presentations/defenses of my Master's project (will have a couple of publications and a patent coming out from it). I've spent the past 2 years doing a part-time program in software engineering from Carnegie Mellon and it's finally over. It's a big deal to me because I've also been working full-time, so I've had minimum 60-70 hour weeks basically nonstop for 2 years.

Last fall, I was thinking I would buy the G as a graduation present to myself.... in hindsight, I'm glad I didn't wait since I've been enjoying so much since I picked it up

Now I get to reclaim my social life and figure out what to do with all this free time I'll experience. First things first, I'm off to Vegas next week! When I come back, I'm signing up for swimming lessons and starting a job hunt to maximize the benefit of getting that MS degree.

Whoohoo, I'm off for a random 2:30am cruise in spite of having to go to work in the morning

PS: and to add a little chris rock humor -

You come out of school nobody gives a f*ck. "Hey man I got outta school, got my masters!" - "So what, b*tch. You punk a55 b*tch. Don't come 'round with all that readin' n sh*t. Don't come 'round with all that count sh*t. I can count too, 1-2-4-5, so what! I'm countin' these rocks, BIATCH!". Sh*t, you could have a, you could have a masters degree, n*gga's don't care. "Hey man I got my masters!" - "W-what, you my master now? I'm suppose to listen to your punk a55? F*ck you, n*gga! F*ck you, so what you got a masters degree, so what you got a motherf*ckin masters degree. Are you tha smarty art n*gga, huh!? You tha smarty art nigga!? Let me axe you this, let me axe you this! Can you kick MY a55?" - Chris Rock

Giri, congrats bro. All that hard work will pay off soon enough. Have fun in Vegas and don't forget to support all those single mothers "dancing" to pay their way through college.

If your not going to Vegas you should be in SF partying tonight.
