It’s summer again. No school. Just work.
This summer I’m working as a Software Engineer Intern at Garmin. Since they’re very hush hush about their work, I can’t really elaborate on what I do. I enjoy my job, it just takes some adjustment to get used to working for 8 hours straight. I have more free time than I do during the school year, and I enjoy having large blocks of free time, I just have a hard time concentrating on one task for hours on end. I’m used to working on something as long as I’m willing and then taking a break.
Another good point about work: money. It’s nice to no be ghetto poor all the time. But now I’m faced with a new delima: On what should I spend my newfound wealth? I’d like to get a TV so I don’t have to borrow Ian’s, but I’d really like to get an HD LCD or Plasma. Those tend to be pricey, but the prices come down quickly so I’m going to wait until the end of the summer. I’m also crazy addicted to Guitar Hero II, so I think that I’m going to buy a Xbox 360 and the game. It’ll cost me about $500 total, but I think it’s worth it.
