I love riding trains

Woo hoo, after exciting graduation, I am now a Master of Science in Information Assurance. Yeah!!!

Few comments about my masters graduation. I am very excited and nervous about my graduation it was interesting. During the pre-graduation reception, the engineering college offer us a one minute speech time…. yes and my most memorable experience in Iowa State is being signaled off the stage for talking over my one minute time … it was actually very funny

The graduation was good, however, after seeing all the cool gowns of the PhD students, it really makes me want to get a PhD just for that Oh maybe in another 10 years.

Speaking of 10 years, I graduated from Auburn in 1999 for my Bachelors. In 10 years, I finally got my Masters. Thanks for everyone that supported me, especially my parents for encouraging me to get a Masters degree. Thanks Mom and Dad.

Also can you believe it … I actually accidentally meet couple of my classmate during graduation. yes… my classmates were all online classmates. I also met another guy, who also took exactly 10 years to get his Masters. Both of his graduation was on the same day Dec. 18 1999 and 2009. Cool huh?

Burr…

Wow an amusement park inside a mall!!! Cool!!

Just landed in MSP… Cold and white stuff everywhere… Burr…

Super early start!!! 3 hour flight to MSP. Just barely fit everything on the flight… So many people … So much stuff!!
Packed flight!!!

Packing and getting ready for my big adventure. This afternoon I was getting really nervous for some reason. I guess it has been a while since I took such a long trip… I am always worry that I forgot something while I am traveling. I try to back light and still try to have everything. It is difficult. So… for my graduation, I have decided not to take the camcorder… and just my camera.

I am very excited and nervous all at the same time. So tomorrow morning bright and early I will be flying to MSP.

So let the excitement begin.

Really? is the Doctor in trouble??

So I got my first Euros today. I have to say… I have never seen stick figures on money, i mean real money before. But they got them on Euros.

That is some funny money.. How come such funny money get such a high value???

Getting nervous and excited!!!

So… After about 15 dropped calls in under 2 hours and 3 calls to AT&T;, I finally got them to admit to their problem.

They even gave me a trouble ticket number (12590697).

So they actually say that they are working on multiple towers around the area. They are saying that there are alot of problems going around the area. maybe my Mark the Spot application is actually doing something.

Or maybe it is just a feel good app that send my complaint straight to the bit “trash” bucket.

oh well.. we will see…
