Good times? It might be...
These days have been sort of a mix of bliss and blah...
Today for example, when I was driving back home, I felt this huge amount of... well blissfull happiness. Not absolutly sure where it came from but I think that knowing that my career is secure for at least the next 5-10 years helped alot.
How do I know this?
It dawned on me today, that I am fucken lucky to be in the situation that I'm in right now. I'm halfway through a Computer science degree that I find easy as fried chicken shit on a stick, I've already done the training for both the ccna and the A+ Core hardware exams which I've been told will guarrantee me around 1k pounds per week in England starting (I'll touch on that in a moment), and with this new job, I'll have good experience in the right field and hopefully a few certifications to boot with Apple.
Which means... I could have a Computer Science degree, CCNA Certification, A+ Certification, Apple service Certification, and a decent amount of sales and computer service experience at a moderately professional venue (the apple center)... all before I reach the age of 21.
I think thats pretty fucken awesome!
Anyways, regarding my comment about 1k in pounds... My parents were talking to me last night about my after Uni plans. Where was I planning on going? Obviously, I've made alot of noise about going back to the states, specifically L.A.
However, my parents were really pushing me to go to Europe instead, where I would have a much better chance succeeding than the very paranoid, very racist, almost in a depression U.S.A. And seeing as I had lived in England for a total of 11 years, they felt that it would be best for me to return to there to persure a career in I.T., where apparently there was a shortage of technicians.
So I'm pretty much like "Fair enough, it would be a good idea to go to Europe... but I'd much rather move back to L.A., besides... you seem to be pushing that I would be considered some sort of risk just because you think that they WILL be pregidous when looking at my resume... I really didn't feel that way when I was over there. On top of that, it really seems to me that the only reason they're getting away with being like that is because you're letting them."
Bottomline, I don't give a shit what my parents fear that the U.S. might pull... I'm a normal human being who wants to enjoy L.A. Why the fuck should I let anyone else ruin that?
Oh btw... my computer is for some reason on a bugging streak... I've reformatted it twice in the last few months and still it acts weird...
I should probably be abit more concerned with the condition of my firewall... as well as updating it.
Anyways... enough for now, I've got work tomorrow ( I love saying that! It makes me feel that much more important! ) and I need to iron my shit.
Peace, love and Gummies...
