While I'm not sure what I'm going to be doing once I graduate from WPI, I'm pretty sure that the whole electrical engineering thing is what's for me.. After doing FIRST in high school, I'd decided that engineering is what I wanted to do.. But it wasn't until going to a bunch of open houses listening to the professors talk that I decided on the flavor of electrical..

Now being at the theoretical half-way point of my college time, I'm not sure at all what I'm going to do once I'm done here.. With EE, I don't absolutely love it yet, but I don't hate it either.. But I'm not totally worried about that right now.. Though I probably should be..

I'm just trying to focus on the now of things.. Step 1: pass my classes for this term.. Step 2: find a job for the summer.. I've still got a couple years before I need to even think about going out into the "real world" and that's how I'm treating it..

If you've got any questions and such, feel free to ask.. You know how to contact me.. But for now, back to work..
