Second Try at a First Post

For the last four years or so, people have been asking me what college I wanted to go to, what I wanted to major in, or what I want to do in life. Until this year I have constantly reported that I do not know anything specific, giving answers like "science" when asked about career fields I was interested in. My attitude began shifting with commencement of my junior year of high school.

I will not deny that I am clueless about many of the things I want, but the schools assemblies, talk among peers, and rants by concerned teachers have made me think about the future more than I had in the past.

Considering my longstanding love of both life (biology) and computers, I decide that I still don't know what I want to do. However, I know I want to have a career in one field of the other. Last Monday I decided to look at the job opportunities in computer related fields that would be of interest to me.

It didn't take long to find some seemingly good material, but none of it was as specific as I wanted. Then I ran into this page: Advice for Computer Science College Students.

Too shorten the story somewhat, I found his advice to be very helpful and have decided to continue my programing education, and to start writing.

So, after leaving this blog inactive for over fifteen months, I think it's time to give it a fresh start and give myself a much needed exercise in writing.

May this journey that I am starting be a good one.
