I guess this is a little overdue! Updates!

Well the first thing I should announce is that I got another new job! I went from the group home to being employed for a S.E.O. company (Search Engine Optimization) called Orange Soda. It was one of the best experiences I have ever had I loved my job so much!

However it only lasted for 6 months. Out of the blue I get a call from my boss that I had at UVU that said hey they are hiring for a network security position at UVU I just thought you might be interested. I figured what the heck why not give it a shot?! So I applied and was hoping I would get it but not getting my hopes up too high since I didnt have much network security experience (by not much I mean 0 experience) but I applied anyways and figured I could hope for the best. I got an interview and got a couple weeks later I got a call saying they wanted to offer me the job! I was so excited I couldnt wait I gave my 2 weeks that day at orange soda and just started my other job. I am very excited and so confused all at the same time since I just started my job I have no clue what I am doing ha ha. All I know is that I love it and I love what I am going into and very excited to start getting experience!!!

Here is a little network security joke for the day:

I kept dreaming of a world I'd never see, Then... One Day... I got in!

I just need to say that I am currently obsessed with Tron Legacy ha ha. I am a Tron freak come to think of it. I guess that's what happens when your mother refers to you as a "Technology Addict" ha ha which is totally true I have to have the newest and latest of all the technology. And lately I have decided that just buying technology isn't just whats fun anymore. I bought a Wii but it wasn't enough. I had to mod it and make it so I can do literally WHATEVER I want with it and I ever have to buy another game cause I can get them all for free! =) So for those of you that don't know I have changed my major to computer science and am LOVING it. I can't wait to start making my own programs. Me and a friend have already talked about making an app this summer for the open source operating system on phones that google made AKA the android operating system! I am also very exciting to have Linux running on my mac as well so that I can play with that also. Well I better head off to bed since I got school all day tomm just wanted to make a quick post.
