Leaving Anchorage in a couple hours or so. Going to stay in Glenallen for a night, then either Friday or Saturday I'll be going to Valdez to catch the ferry on Sunday. Will be arriving in Juneau early Tuesday morning. My new job starts Wednesday. Wish me luck. Should have internet again in a week or so.

So yeah, had my interview yesterday. At first I was worried I wouldn't be able to find the place because i'd showed up at the address given and none of the buildings in sight was the correct one. But then after walking down a bit further I saw a sign with the building name so I was able to go in with about 15 minutes to spare. The interview ( Read more... )

Ok, so two days from now I have an interview with the CEO of an IT consulting firm for an intern programming position with the company. So far everything leading up to this point has gone better than I've expected. A friend of from college who works there told me about the opening, and when I sent her my resume she passed it along including an ( Read more... )

Ok, I figure I better write something now while I'm in the mindset for it, otherwise it's going to be another eternity before the thought crosses my head again to put something down in here. *Checks for last LJ update* Hmm, April 10. A little over 3 months. Not too bad I suppose, even if it was just 2 sentences and done just so I wouldn't be in ( Read more... )

It's 4:35 a.m. and normally I'd be fast asleep right now, but thanks to an energy pill I don't feel the slightest bit tired. Doesn't mean I'm not going to try to get some sleep at this point though. Better late than never.

Ok, I'm writing something here since apparently LJ deletes inactive accounts and I don't quite want to let go of mine. I will be doing a real entry sometime soon for sure. Apologies for being away so long, I just have not had the time to do this stuff like I've used to.

I have to say, getting one's license back, as well as a new vehicle (not brand new, but still in great shape, and a lot better than the PoS car I used to drive) all in the same day kicks all sorts of ass.

Ok, after much procrastination and pestering from wolfsamurai I'm finally getting off my ass (figuratively speaking, anyway) and updating this thing. Anyhow, quite a bit of stuff has happened since my last update, but since I doubt I can remember it all I'll only touch on 2 or 3 things ( Read more... )

Ok, this is long overdue, but better late than never. Almost exactly a month ago I bade farewell to Homer and made my way up into Anchorage. I spent the first week or so in a motel while perusing the classified ads trying to find an apartment for myself and a good friend of mine who'd moved up barely a week before I had. Got lucky in the end and ( Read more... )

Amazing, isn't it? Turns out I have a couple of things worth writing about without having to wait 2 months for them to pop up. To start out with, I flew up to Anchorage on Tuesday to go to a job fair being held the next day. All things considered, it turned out fairly well. I managed to get 3 job applications filled out and turned in while I ( Read more... )
