Luke says Moo!

My life and the world as I see it. It’ll mostly be a place for me to gripe and friends to keep up with me.

In the Chapel at 11:45am

by @ Sunday, October 24th, 2004. Filed under Work

Sigh…I’ve got to be at work by 11:45 tomorrow morning (or this morning I suppose) and I’m there until 6pm. Very annoying.
I suppose it’ll give me a chance to get some ECE 300 signals and systems work done…like pre-lab because I think it’s all blasted Matlab this week.
Matlab is annoying and really rather evil, [...]

Hm, crashing interviews…not really

by @ Friday, October 22nd, 2004. Filed under Job/Career Hunting

Ok, so ignore the previous post…I didn’t go to the interview slot…instead I called Career Services and asked them about just showing up for the time slot.
Well, it appears as if the webpage showing the time slots wasn’t new, but was created before they even came down for the career fair.
So, [...]

Is it ok to crash an interview slot?

by @ Thursday, October 21st, 2004. Filed under Job/Career Hunting

Ok, DigitalNet is having interviews tomorrow. I checked their online schedule and they have two open time slots.
Is it ok to just show up and hope they’ll talk to me? Or should I not go? L, Midget, and Dr. 7 thinks I should go.
I was totally gunghoe about going, [...]

The jury is still out on the career fair…

by @ Thursday, October 21st, 2004. Filed under Me

Yay, and sigh. I had several positive reactions from people…until they asked for my GPA which is currectly at 2.54. So poo on people looking at just GPA.
I even had one lady say something along the lines of, “Wow, you’ve had some really interesting experience, and look like you’d fit well here; what’s [...]

115 Companies to Attend Rose-Hulman Career Fair
A twenty-five percent increase in the number of companies scheduled to attend the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology Career Fair Wednesday is another indication of increasing job opportunities for engineering graduates, says Kevin Hewerdine, the college’s director of career services and employer relations.
Yay! Tomorrow’s the career fair, so I’ve been [...]

I’m a responsible citizen now…

by @ Tuesday, October 12th, 2004. Filed under Moo

I just dropped my absentee ballot in the mail today, so for the first time I have voted and been a good citizen. That’s only 4 years that I’ve been elligible, but at least I got around to it.
It’s raining today…I hope it doesn’t rain all day tomorrow because I hate driving in rain [...]

Building a Better You

by @ Sunday, October 10th, 2004. Filed under Freemasonry

This is a passage which was found one day while rummaging through a lodge’s archives.
It is from a lodge publication from 1973, and is anonymous.
(Unknown Brother doing the rummaging…I just copied the text of the document.)
Building a Better You
“Your task-
To build a better world,” God said.
But I answered, “How?
The world is such a [...]

1/6 the way through…

by @ Sunday, October 10th, 2004. Filed under Rose-Hulman

Wow…just got my midterm grades, and I’m happy. Anyway, it makes me happy and sad that this is the grade marker for being 1/6 the way through my senior year.
I’m sad because it means I’ll be leaving this place that I’ve come to love and hate (all at the same time) in just a [...]

Woot! I feel capable…

by @ Thursday, October 7th, 2004. Filed under Me

I felt intelligent, well maybe not quite intelligent, but I felt capable.
ECE 333 (Digital Systems) lab went ok…turns out I don’t know the difference between positive 5 and negative 5…anyway, that lab worked out, but it took longer than we had hoped.
Then in ECE 300 (Signals and Systems - class I failed winter [...]

Coolest Mom Ever

by @ Monday, October 4th, 2004. Filed under My Family

I’ve got the coolest Mom ever. I got a package at the end of last week from Mom marking 1/6th the way through my senior year at Rose.
It had two Millenium Falcons that are tops and they both work! One came with the pull cord to make the top work and one came [...]
