I made this it’s own post because I think this talk is important enough to highlight it. A professor at CMU, Randy Pausch, was dying from pancreatic cancer. Doctors gave him three to six months left to live. Knowing this, he gave an awesome talk about achieving your childhood dreams and how to live your […]
A long overdue update
So, it’s time for another real post. First off, I guess I’ll try to explain why I haven’t been posting much. Or, why I have spurts where I post and then don’t post. I consider this journal a hobby. I enjoy writing, and sometimes I just like to sit and do an emotional download to […]

I have to say, of all the classes I’ve taken so far, the software maintenance course that I took this semester took the most out of […]
