I am getting a modem for my computer that lets me have caller ID on my computer… I know that doesn’t sound that great, but with the amount of calls my roommates get, I will know without running to the phone who is calling… I can also set it up to automatically hang up on certain people… I am really excited about it…
I totally have fixed my computer up in the last few days, instead of studying… it is running better than it did when I built it…
I can’t decide if I want to go to grad school or not… I decide I am going to apply for this scholarship that is just for FSU students… FSU’s Computer Science department is one of 36 Universites that is NSA (National Security Agency… A government agency) certified… Being certified the CS department alone gets over $1,000,000 a year to give to their students that will promise to work for them for 2 years (work for the NSA for 2 years)… well, FSU actually has barely enough people applying for this scholarship… so they say it is pretty easy to get…
Benifits: All food, books, housing, tuition paid for, plus $8,000 a school year (2 semesters) spending money… (that is $1000 a month spending money)… and $55,000+ starting salary… (which isn’t quite the average starting wage getting out of college with a masters, but they paid for it, unlike others… The starting wage is more like 65,000)
I just don’t know if I am interested in the security… but that would be a great opertunity whether I liked it or not… I don’t know… the two downfalls about it is 1) don’t get to choose where I would move… most likely would be DC, which isn’t bad… but still… 2) sign 4 years of my life away… (2 years for masters, 2 for job)
Oh well, give me your opinions if you have any…
