Been busy with college and finally a job interview

It's been awhile since I last blogged on here, but it looks like my life has slightly changed for the better. College is really tough when most of the class are about as clueless as they can be when it comes to Business Statistics. People actually pay money for data mining and digging up relevant information. My final exam is coming up this Wednesday and it's going to be rough when we covered only 2 chapters in 4 days.
I have to do well because it is a requirement for graduation.

A job interview has finally appeared for me and it is going to be this Tuesday at Fry's Electronics. People bashed the electronic retailer for employees being clueless and drones, but let's hope my personality will change that. I'm very knowledgeable when it comes to computer hardware, but I only know the basics of computer software. Might as well learn Linux and Mac OS X for operating systems. If all goes well, I'll be hired and work there. Seriously, I've been out of work for 18 months and a sliver of hope appears for me, no matter how small the pay is. Beats out making money online at 25 cents an hour.

Going back to college soon

I'm going to Georgia Gwinnett College on the 11th and I've rent my books from Chegg.com. You heard me, renting textbooks. I've saved over $95 for renting instead of buying textbooks online. The resale value of these books will plummet and become useless once Fall semester comes. I'm still jobless and the employees seem to be ruder and dissatisfied at where they are at. Try telling to those people who've lost their jobs like me and have to figure out how to make ends meet. Nevertheless, I don't give up in pursuing my education and job.

Studying for finals

Classes are over and I am going to study for my finals. I have only two finals but they are spread apart by about a week. Statistics is the much harder one due to writing out long answers to the problems. Management information systems is much easier but no multiple choice, just matching, short answer, and some diagrams. I'm not that concrete and factual when it comes to math and science. I can't wait when its over that I get back to work to make some money for buying computer components for my new PC.
