Time to Intern

As we approach internship, some questions I have in my mind are:  "What software and equipment will we be using?", "What's next?"  I hope I will be able to absorb as much information and experience as possible as I go to my internship.  I am excited to go intern but, I am also nervous at the same time.  This intern will affect my life by a great amount.  It won't set it, but it will definitely affect it.  It feels like a gamble going into internship.  I (still) have no clue where I am going to. I don't know who I will meet.  I'm not sure what will happen after the internship.  There are two vague ideas in my head for the future and they are:  Continue going to school, and continue going to school and work at the same time.  I can't see the future, so I do not have a set-in-stone plan about what I will do after internship.  I'm not entirely sure what I will do in the internship, but I know several ideas that I must keep in mind as I intern.  I will work as hard as I can.  I will make a good impression of myself.  I will do what I do best to keep myself happy, and everyone around me happy.

12/30/11 - 12/31/11

To finish of the year of 2011, I played tennis on Friday and stayed at home on Saturday.  Playing tennis with my coach and a few friends was a great way to end the year; especially since I don't see them as much anymore.  On New Year's Eve, I stayed at home and watched the countdown on TV. 

Doesn't seem like I do much on New Year's Eve, but I'm fine with it.  I usually don't do anything special for the coming new year.  I don't even think about it too much; a new year just seems like another day.  I never understood what the big deal of a new year meant and still don't know why.  I guess I'm fine with the way it is.

12/27/11 - 12/28/11

On Tuesday night, Jon and I did an all-nighter playing this new game called Star Wars: The Old Republic.  We had voice-chat over Skype and on Wednesday morning it said our conversation was over 12 hours long.  It was really fun being able to talk to a friend and play a game together.  What made it better was that the game was really good and the voice chat quality was good.

So Tuesday became Wednesday and I stayed up until 1 am that Wednesday.  I was fatigued and exhausted but I had to stay awake.  On Wednesday, Jon, Mich, and I hung out.  Mich is back from his University down in L.A. and is visiting.  Wednesday night, my friends and I had a gift exchange.

Those two days were really fun and memorable.  Even though I was tired on Wednesday night (which became Thursday morning), I couldn't sleep for about a full 10 minutes because I was reflecting on the days that have passed.
