Welcome to 2016, a momentous year for me. My first year as a college graduate. My first year outside of that industry called education. My first year… to be determined. The short story there being: very short.
I have no particular plan for my immediate or long term future.
I get asked what my plans are a LOT lately; however experience has taught me that planning is often just a way of designing disappointments. I find myself in front of a clean slate. A fresh start. So before I start buying furniture for my own tower of babel, I figure I should see where the first brick lands.
This does not mean that I am lost for what to do. I have passions, ambitions, expectations, and ideas. All of which will guide me into the future. I have a degree in Computer Science, and a LinkedIn profile which improves every day; I’m not about to pack my bags, hop on to a plane and hunt the Yeti through the Swiss Alps.
Then Again, if any Yet-Hunting-Expeditions feel like they could use a Software Engineer and can offer a reasonable compensation package, call me. Which may or may not be ‘the point.’ I was in Oregon Wednesday, standing on a fourteen foot snow drift at Crater Lake. Now I’m in a T-Shirt warm inside my apartment in Boston, and I’m not sure where I’ll be in another two days.
