Day 1 of Classes
Well, day one is almost over for me. I still have one class, but things went as well as they could have.
It was HOT today. All I kept thinking about was, “Dang, I kind of feel like I’m running around in Iraq.” The only difference is that over in Iraq, your S.O.L for finding a cool place. Not only that, but you have a ton of gear on your back, which makes all that sweat feel real nice (/sarcasm).
My Philosophy class is in this huge building with no windows… Talk about a lovely atmosphere to learn in.
When I was driving up to campus this morning, after a long 2 hour drive, I got an e-mail from the CIS department (/hug_iPhone). There is a research assistant position open, looking for 2 undergrads to work for ‘The Distributed Computing and Sensor Network Research Group.’ Sounds like fun, but I have little to no experience with distributed systems (yet) at the moment. I might fling over something to see what they say. It would be nice to get some research and development experience.
