Well it's been about a week since I last updated, so I figured it's about time to post an update. Mostly because it's easier than talking to all 5 of the people that read this on AIM. Not an exciting update, but by now you know better than to expect one of those anyways.

Classes are already done for the semester - my last day was on Tuesday. I don't need to tell you that Psych was a breeze. My databases exam was on Tuesday. The exam was way to long, but it ended up being curved, so I (relatively) aced it. My Artificial Intelligence exam was on Thursday. We'll see how it turns out - could be anywhere from an A to a C. My last final, for my theory class, is on Tuesday. I'll start studying for it tomorrow, but I'm not too worried.

Things are coming together on the job front. I found out specifically what I'll be doing at Amazon - working on the big vendor websites, like Target.com and Toys-R-Us.com. I'll be seeing all aspects of an eCommerce infrastructure and web systems, which is great, because it's stuff I haven't been exposed to yet. I also found out where I'll be living - the building is five blocks from the space needle, so that'll be pretty darn cool. My flight is booked, I'm in contact with the guys I'll be working under, and I leave in under two weeks. I'm excited as hell.

I think that's all for now. After exams are done I'll post a whole-site update, along with some more details on the site changes I intend to make this summer.
