Engineering Design Technology, Inc.

For all of you that have been keeping up with me, you would have already heard about EDT, Inc.
Throughout the last couple of weeks, I have found more incentives to pursue. I’ll repeat the first reason. I can guarantee that I’m right about not being able to start a business and backout, or I can take a shot and see where it leads me. You guarantee yourself a lot more by saying “I can’t” than saying “Let’s do this.”
I am on my summer break, so now I have more time …

Great news!!!
I have a new place to apply my skills. Here’s the bad news. Once again I’m caught in a Windows only environment. It’s really not the end of the world. I just had a pretty rough histroy with Windows.
The number one reason why I decided to abandon Windows was to be legal. If you’re smart enough, I would not have to explain what this means. Another reason is because every dollar really counts when you’re going to college. An incentive to abandoning Windows was to train myself to appreciate …

Playing Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo

You know you are the shit when you can literally obliterate someone like Bison and just walk away like nothing ever happened. I really enjoy listening to Akuma’s theme, but I don’t last long enough to hear the whole thing.

I guess the dating world has really changed from the last time I checked.
From the way I was raised, being traditional was enough. What do I mean? Showing respect, treating the lady well, not being an asshole, etc.
Why am I bringing this up now? Well, something interesting happened today. I found out that my cousin just got screwed. Supposedly, her boyfriend bought her a Lexus. The car is under her name, but he is making all of the payments. Looks like this guy bit off more than he can chew, …

I’ve been away from my journal for far too long.
However, if you noticed, my website has been extensively remodeled.
I have a confession to make. This is my first semester in college that I have been slacking off in. So much has been going on. Let’s start from the beginning.
OKC, POF, and Craigslist
For those that haven’t been in my loop, those are the places I go to meet people. It’s about time I break my 22 year streak of being single. Although the dating sites do their job well, for some …

I’m alone at my sister’s condo. I’ve only been there for about two days and I just realized that it’s not all that great living on your own. It’s so quiet. If the dogs were not with me, I might do something stupid like doing burnouts in the parking lot.
At the same time, it’s like my own little taste of paradise. There is a swimming pool, a hot tub, and a gym for me to play with. I went swimming the day before, but today feels really cold. I might …

Today is the day I finally realized that I need a new job. After the events that have taken place over the last five days, I am forced to seek employment. My original plan was to find a new job after the summer break, but it looks like that isn’t going to happen. I still have plenty of savings to last the next 1.5 years, but the point is to not spend my savings. I love volunteering my time, but I need to do something for the better of my …

In one of my older posts, I mentioned that I will not be able to rely on my natural talent to cruise through college.
Throughout most/all of my years in college, I did not really have to study much to get the grades that I got. In almost all of my classes, I used common knowledge to answer all questions on a test. Someone told me that I have a very different set of common knowledge, compared to everyone else. That’s probably why I have a very different way of thinking …

Living in the moment versus thinking about what could be.
I really hate coming across this issue. It’s really evident when I’m out on a date.
I’d rather live in the moment. There is so much less tension when doing so. If you are caught up thinking about what could be, you might send out a signal that you move fast. That’s what I hate. Also, I get the vibe that someone is desperate.
The idea is to have a great time. Why spoil it with future plans that are not in the …

My official decision… No beard. I thought it would be great to have a new look before I turn 22, but “If it ain’t broke, why fix it?” Plus, when I shaved everything off today, it was like a carpet in my sink.
Behold the glory of a dedicated server. I’ve gotten a few emails over the past months from random visitors about starting a website out of their garage or room. It doesn’t cost that much, but the idea of hosting from your home is not for everyone. Here’s a …
