California

Eh, finally something good happened to me as far as getting a co-op is concerned.  I got an offer from Intel today which means I will be moving to California in 3 weeks after finals (driving there).  I will be there for 6 months.

Yup.  No more snow for me this year!  No more -15 degree weather.  No more potholes.  No more 8:00 am classes.

If things work out right I will only have to spend one more quarter at RIT.  And by things working out right I mean going straight to Germany to study abroad for 5 months after my Intel internship.  I won't be back for a year!  Weeeeee.  Rochester is cool and all in it's own way, but it's just not for me.  I need a change of scenery.

So what am I going to be doing at Intel?  It's a bit vague now, but I do know a few things.  I will be working on a team that optimizes software for Apple.  They look at everything from the high level algorithms to the low level assembly.  I will be working on Mac's.  And apparently, the second day I am there they are flying me to a conference in Phoenix, AZ, which I wasn't told much about.

Believe it or not, I don't have much to complain about, except for maybe a lonely Valentine's day, but not everything always goes your way.
