      hey man! where you been? I know I am 2 months late but right back atcha :D

  2. Applied for an IT Support Engineer position at Amazon a few days ago. I've heard that they can be pretty slow at responding so here in a few days i'll hit up the warehouse and talk to them in person. This job would provide a great opportunity for me so here's to hoping I get a chance!

      Good luck man. Hope you get it.

  3. Checked out your channel, good stuff. You're pretty funny. Subed to show support. Hope you find some useful info on this site. Lots of knowledgeable people on here.
  4. Update:

    I've purchased the instrument I was eyeballing a few weeks ago. It should be here by Friday. I'm am beyond excited. I'll post some pics and what not when it gets here.

      Congratulations! Looking forward to seeing 

  5. I will be buying a new instrument in about two weeks. I'm extremely excited to finally get one of my own. I've wanted one for years and really miss playing/performing. May post pictures of it once I get it.

      Check this video out. Arguably one of the best players today. His name also happens to be....Steven Mead lmao If you watch it and see him making weird faces or funny sounds, he likes to have fun during his solos/concerts and make people laugh.

      That was actually pretty funny 

  6. Got Assassin's Creed Origins this weekend. So far it's pretty awesome. Also got Mafia 3 but haven't had a chance to play it. My list of games to get is pretty long and I don't have my PS4 with me so it will take a while to play through all of these games. 

  7. Started work at Lowe's a few days ago. Today was my first day on the sales floor. I'm working Inside Lawn and Garden/Seasonal. So far so good.

      How was that?

      It really wasn't bad but I was doing A/C work during the day and Lowe's at night. I was also remodeling my son's room and I couldn't hang so I quit Lowe's.

      Gotta do what you gotta do. I'm liking it so far. It's really not too bad. Pretty laid back as far as I can tell. The most stressful thing is having to change my department constantly because it's seasonal but that's about it so far. 

  8. I stand by Lifeproof cases. They do what they say they do, they look and feel great and best of all, they have great customer service. Anytime I have an issue with my case, they make it right immediately and without question.  They've won a customer for life. 

  9. My thoughts go out to all those who were affected by the Vegas shooting last night. Truly a tragic event. 

  10. Just finished my homework for the weekend. It was 38 pages....This is getting ridiculous. It seems like my prof is assigning more and more HW as the semester goes along. I'm still doing it all but jeez.

      I guess so lol I didn't have HW last night because we had a test but I can only imagine the amount i'm going to have to do tonight. Haven't look at his email yet. Dreading it. 

  11. The University of Houston is thinking about hiring me to help  develop some stuff for them and to be a kind of support for their College of Technology. I would get to stay where I'm at. They're thinking of starting at at least $20/hr if not more. I'm glad I ended up going to this meeting today. Also glad I treat everyone one with a base level of respect regardless if I know who they are or not. Really helped me today.

      Thanks, i'm trying. If I can get my foot in the door with this University and actually help them get some big things done in these fields they're researching in, it good open up to a whole realm of great jobs. Also, the University of Houston is playing with the idea of inviting me to participate in their graduate programs. That would be nice. A graduate degree that's paid for by the school. 

  12. Just saw this video in a post on Facebook. Never seen this guy but i'll be checking out more of his videos. Liked him. I didn't even know RF had that "CLEAN" feature built in.
  13. Met a fellow basshead in the drive through at Taco Bell. He was getting decently loud for a single Orian HCCA 10". Blue Mustang with neat white accents/designs. Told him he should go to Heatwave next weekend. Hopefully i'll see him there and be able to get a demo. Seemed like a good guy. 

  14. I'm actively trying to pass this class. I'm doing all assigned homework every night and going to office hours when I have questions. Hopefully I can make a good grade in it and be done with this degree. Unfortunately my work schedule is killing me. I want to ask for less hours or to get off earlier but I need these hours to pay for the class. Oh well, looks like i'll be pushing through until this class is over. Thankfully it's only 5 weeks.

      It's not the amount of hours, it's the time the hours are. So far i'm getting it all done but the juggling is a bit hard. I also have my on campus job for the summer to deal with. Like I said, it's just for 5 weeks. Just have to grind for the next month and I should be okay.

      Working overnight shifts then going to school? Damn. I know those overnight shifts are harsh on ur body/health. Wherever i had to cover the overnight shifts id end up getting pretty sick afterward. Much respect man, i couldnt mentally handle doing all that at once. Keepin grindin bro.

      I just finished up my homework for the night. 15 pages....it was 15 pages...took me 7 hours. Luckily i'm on-call tonight so I wasn't working my overnight shift at Taco Bell. I had time to sit here and work. This prof. assigns hours of HW every day (class is M-F). I bought a new 70 page spiral notebook for this class on Monday and i'm already through half of it with notes and homework...The overnight shifts just start eating away at you. My job isn't really mentally tasking or hard for that matter but standing there constantly pumping out orders for hours on end starts to beat you down. Like, I didn't know this Taco Bell was literally always busy. 

  15. Got a job at Taco Bell. Making $9.25 an hour working graveyard. Wish I was doing something in my field that paid better but after it's all said and done I'm just grateful to have a paying job so I can pay for this last class. First time working fast food and I can say it's definitely a new experience for me. On another funny note they will have to order special gloves for me. My hands are too big for their XL gloves and keep on splitting them. Oops

      Work is work. Pay check is a paycheck.

      Honestly my degree can be used in any field. I have a computer science degree with a minor in Math. Thinking about going back for Electrical Engineering with a focus in Computer Engineering since I already have over half the credits taken care of.

      Like I said, I am grateful that I have a job whatever it may be. I know there are a lot of people who can't find a job and have bills to pay and mouths to feed. I actually got this job relatively easy. But you're right, once I get that better paying job that interests me more I will be much more grateful for it. Unfortunately every paycheck I will receive this entire month will have to go straight to my class payment. The paycheck I received for my research will have to go to it too. It is what it is 

  16. Saw your latest video and just found/read this Topic. Damn, this is awesome. Can't wait to hear this thing playing! I bet it's a monster.
  17. Trying to use my PS3 for the first time in a while and i'm having to download so many software updates. 

  18. Walked the stage this past Friday. Need to take one class this summer and i'll officially have my degree. Working in a research lab this summer with one of my professors and a couple of other departments. Hoping to possibly get an invite to the Master's program.

      It is a military town, besides that the cost of living is low and pay is good.

      Majoring in Computer Science with a Minor in Mathematics 

  20. Just finished a test that was open book, notes, computer, phone. Literally anything but the people in class (someone called their sister last semester). Holy cow was it hard. Wouldn't have been able to do hardly any of the questions if it wasn't at least open notes.

  21. Good news. Should be graduating in May. Will not receive my degree until the following fall because I have to take a class in the summer but I will be able to walk the stage this May. Finally getting some good news is a pleasant change of pace for this current semester.

      Yeah, just trying to figure out what I'm going to do afterwards. Thinking about possibly going for another degree that is related to this current one. Not sure

  22. Time to go to bed. Spent all night reading LDC and practicing my Java coding for class. Shoulda been sleeping like 3 hours ago. Oh well

  23. Went to someone even higher in the department. Said essentially the same thing that the others did. Done with that department but now i'm talking to the "Omnibudsman" (think that's how it's spelled). He's essentially a lawyer/consultant on campus meant to be non biased to the university. See what he has to say. Unfortunately, I now have to pull $4600 out my ass in order to pay for food and housing with no job and definitely not enough savings.

      It's as simple as getting a job.

      Let me ask you question, you're going around starting all kinds of drama to try and get your bullshit job back, and I'm assuming that to do so you are attempting to throw a bunch of people under the bus for whatever you think it is that they did wrong, how well do you think they will treat you if you did get it back?

      Move along, man, get another job and chalk this one up as a loss.

      All this time you've spent whinging and crying to everyone who will hear it could have been spent landing a new job.

      I actually am in the process of getting a new job. While getting a job helps it doesn't change the fact that I have a $4600 loan out and that's not a student loan with low interest. Also, i'm not trying to get my job back. I've given up on that a long time ago. I'm trying to get people to face justice for the very shady things they have done. Please don't assume you know what i've been doing the past month because you're probably wrong. On the note of throwing people under the bus, i've tried leting the department correct what they've done but they refuse to so now everyone can find out.
