| | Hello my Xanga Faithful, I know it has been quite some time since I last posted anything here. Actually about 4 months time! So this post is a little bit of a recap of what's been up with me.
SCHOOL
So I am officially done with my undergraduate at UW. Four years and an extra quarter for a double major. Hopefully it's good enough to find me a decent job (more on that later in this post). I have to say that college was the best experience of my life thus far. I met some lifelong friends, had some fun times, and as cliche as it sounds, have truly grown as a person. I feel that I've come a long way and have to admit that I am happy with who I am today and that's what counts right? I don't think I'm really done with school just yet, I still have aspirations of getting my MBA, but ideally I'd like to work for a place that will pay for it cuz that's hella money.
WORK
So since I have yet to find a career-oriented full-time job since graduating, I've just been working more hours at Circuit City to pay the bills until I find that job. I've interviewed at quite a few places and am still waiting to hear back from some places. It is frustrating though. The most frustrating thing is how long it takes companies to even get back to you at all after applying if they even do get back to you at all. Pisses me off...Boeing, I'm talking to you!
REST OF LIFE
My personal life has definitely reached a high and it gets better everyday. While I don't see as many people since I'm no longer in school and I've graduated, I still manage to keep up with some of my closest friends. Whether it's a birthday, a happy hour, or even just coffee, it's nice to know that there are these great people in my life. None better than my amazing girlfriend, Amy. My life has just gotten better since I've been with her and this relationship is a good thing going. We have been unofficially together for about 10 months and have an official 4-month on Wednesday, Valentine's Day. It's kind of funny, this year is the first time I've ever had a valentine. Even when I dated girls in the past, I was never actually with anyone during this time of the year. So kudos to me! 
OTHER RANDOM HAPPENINGS
~ The Mariners offseason was horrible and they will be lucky if they win 70 games this year. Terrible trades and worthless free agent signings. We even traded one of my favorite players, Chris Snelling for a washed up overpaid scrub in Jose Vidro. Me and Brian have vowed to go to games this year with the sole intent of booing Jose Vidro.
~ I managed to see a few concerts in the last few months. I saw All-American Rejects with the Format for free, that was a fun show. Saw Keane at the Paramount, that was amazing, their lead singer sounded so good and dead-on. And just saw Jack's Mannequin and Head Automatica for free at the Showbox last week, good show and they even played some Something Corporate songs.
~ I have a new laptop, it's a Dell Inspiron E1405, it's pretty sweet. It was a Christmas/Graduation gift from my parents. My dad got it through a corporate discount at Boeing and got a pretty sweet deal on it.
~ Two of my favorite TV shows are back with non-stop new episodes! "Lost" and "24"
That's all I can really think of right now. I'll try to blog a little more in the near future.
Later, Jason
