How was your day? - icephoenix21 - 2016-04-30
Tentatively planning a trip to Iceland next year and I'm so super stoked.
Yay for having a real job and some disposable income!
How was your day? - VerrKol - 2016-05-02
It's final season again and the usual panic has returned. Balancing work with grad school has become far more difficult than I initially believed. They're both very demanding and I've frankly been struggling to keep up with the class. I'm learning tons and very happy with that, but my grades have not been good. I'm hoping my research essay and final performance will redeem me. I'm really struggling to deal with my deep love of the subject material, my increasing knowledge, but still poor grade. There's nothing quite like being told your best effort isn't good enough. I'm not giving up yet, but I'll definitely need to reevaluate my plans when I get my final grade and figure out how I can prepare better for next time.
Otherwise my life is pretty damn good. I'm working on a very interesting and cutting edge research project with some very bright coworkers. Progress has been mostly positive. My relationship is still going strong although each of our careers have created more stress than we'd like and kept us apart too much. My car is also proving to be an adventure as I continue to repair/maintain it myself. I'm now starting to dream about traveling and vacationing abroad (jealous of my friends), but it will likely have to wait 1-2 years while I pay off my student loans. Being a responsible adult is both really awesome and really sucky.
How was your day? - Link - 2016-05-03
I don't remember the last time I've posted here. I just saw this thread again and figured it'd be a good place to let things off my chest. I'll make it short and simple, for the sake of time.
So, over the past two months, I've been going through a process with my job, working on a promotion. They had me work as a Seafood relief manager for a month and then they sent me through a Department Management Development training. Meanwhile, my mom gets a call from the doctor saying she has breast cancer.
Fast forward a month, my mom goes through surgery for a bilateral mastectomy. I'm finally back at my original store, but they're treating me like crap, like they've lost all trust and respect in me since I left for the DMD training. I can't wait to get assigned my own department. Fast forward another week, all in one night, my mom gets in a huge fight with her husband, my girlfriend breaks up with me, and we find out that my mom's cancer spread to her lymph nodes, which means the cancer is now in her blood stream and she will have to go through chemo therapy and radiation. She's in absolute shock and can't stop crying. We're in absolute poverty and insane debt, and it's a miracle we can even afford rent, much less the doctor bills...
The future looks bleak at home right now.

Well, it's been a long time, hasn't it SP?
I'm out of the navy now (on separation leave, so still getting a paycheck til the final day), and I went to the gym for the 2nd day in a row now, and am finally enjoying it when I don't have anyone else's standards or expectations to reach. I also started my application to go back to college! Maybe I'll stick with my major (theatre/drama), or maybe I'll switch to something else, like STEM or whatever.
Otherwise I'm unemployed and borderline homeless. Life is good [enough].

Wowow, It has been a long time since I last visited!
Life is good!

6 month post-grad update : still unemployed
I've been called by three different recruiters and all three wasted my time, some less transparent about this fact than others. The last one I went to had positions in mind and seemed really excited. She said she'd get back to me on Wednesday, I emailed her on Wednesday asking for an update and I haven't gotten a reply.

An update to this, I got my new name badge today.

My new paycheck is nice. I've more than doubled what I was making at the beginning of this year.

that feel when significant other surprises you with a bunch of absolutely and absurdly kinky presents.
How was your day? - Grey - 2016-07-07
After rejection, and a year of working and then back to research, I got into grad school (under the condition I can complete my machine learning project). Yay!

First day of work as a bookkeeper tomorrow.
How was your day? - Marksman Bryan - 2016-09-08
After months of back-and-forth with the Registrar and Physics department, I was officially awarded my B.S. in Physics and B.A. in Mathematics! I will be completing my Master's in Physics this December.
And I finally got my driver's license two weeks ago, after five years of putting it off.
It's almost like I'm a real adult...

Congrats! Meanwhile I'm likely 4 years away from my MS

How are you completing your MS so fast? Do you have to do a thesis or did you just take a bunch of extra grad level classes? Either way, congrats! I have one year left of my physics BS before I go off for nuclear engineering MS.

Thanks!
I had finished all but one credit worth of requirements for my undergrad degree after my third year - last year (fourth year) I took all grad courses. It ended up being more of a formality issue.
I am writing a thesis as well. Most of my research for it is completed, and I am in the process of writing it up. Almost there!

Every once in a while, my curiosity causes me to log into this site to see what's changed. Not much, I guess. Everyone whom I talked with aren't here anymore, and I haven't followed Maple in a while, so I don't understand in anymore.
How was your day? - KhainiWest - 2017-02-06
I got an indirect e-mail from the president!
I can't give the details obviously but we had a list named "trump list", some media found out about it and was going to report on it (asking our agency questions), it's a list we share with the IRS, so we were asked to change it as not to use as ammunition that we're stalking the pres or something.
MOVING UP IN THE WORLD....of memo's
How was your day? - ShadeCaro - 2017-02-07
It's been about a year since I've even logged on. I can see most of the people from a few years back aren't really here anymore. A lot of nostalgia is hitting me at the moment.
I've been working for my Bachelors in Business with a concentration in Human Resource Management (only one more year to go!) and studying French as well. I've been pretty busy in Colorado and am planning to move out to east coast after I get my degree to be closer to Massachusetts family. Dunno if I'll go to Boston where they all are, but I want to be in the area!
I hope all of you have been well and that you're having fun with your life.

well I ended up making something that resembles a 2D platformer. it's not actually a game, there's one level, the platforms are buggy, and for some reason everything is really low resolution.
but I used a maplestory sprite so it is relevant okay bye
