Another week gone

Another week has flown by and the semester is coming to an end quickly. This week I've mainly been sick (strep like thing) and working on research. I FINALLY (hallelujah) finished the Wavelet transform for my research. I also have finished writing and testing about 2/3 of a new Neural Network. After discussing it with Dr. Tag, I decided to sit down and write a new one from scratch. I was a little terrified at first, but its going really well so far. I hope to be done by the end of the weekend.

I had my interview at PPD on Wednesday, it was interesting. First, I was really sick. Second, even though I'm only interviewing for an internship, I was there for 2 and a half hours, and met with 3 groups of people. Turns out they take internships really serious there, because unlike GE or Corning, they almost always hire interns when they graduate. In other words, PPD treats internships like apprenticeships, the way its supposed to be done.

I'm not sure about the other candidates, so I have no idea what my chances are, but the interviews went well. Everybody was really friendly, and most of them were UNCW graduates (obviously encouraging).

My new laptop should be here any day now, so I can finally put that whole situation behind me. School is going pretty well, finally getting close to caught up with everything. Next semester is going to be so nice, I've been way overcommitted for the past 3/4 of a year. It will be nice to have a managable load again.

Still haven't gotten the New York stuff up (obviously), will try to soon, just really busy with research right now.

Hope all is well with you all.
