Back To School

Summer is at a close, and my final semester of class is at arm's length. For those of you who've been following the evolution of IrishNinjas, and me for that matter, you know that it has been a long journey for me to finally get a degree. Admittedly, I have not been the best student at times throughout my permanent career as an ASU undergraduate. I have seen my share of ups and downs, lefts and rights, spirituality, and economic despair, but what really stands out in my mind is the times I have had with my super awesome wife, Krystal. Each and every day, we struggle through 'Venus and Mars' situations on income, taxes, social life, and so on. Through all of that, there is always a bright and sunny disposition within each of us. I owe my success greatly to my wife, and for that I am thankful.

School is going to be pretty awesome this semester. I will be participating in an independent study for the College of Communications. The study is over internet communications, and I think that Dr. Zeng is happy to have me sit alongside the other students to help with HTML, CSS, and a few basic typesetting and theming lessons. I am strongly considering the option of going for a masters degree and teaching classes at ASU to build a web design curriculum at the university on an undergraduate level. I would like to incorporate my own experiences with good ole book work and old fashioned all nighters to help the departments involved get up to speed on web design and building brands.

As far as music goes this semester, I hope that everyone has found joy in using the hot new service, Turntable.fm. It is wonderful, and has kept me focused on the objectives I have in place. I really enjoy music and social gathering. Let's keep up the good work and have fun doing it.
