Today was my last day of work for the summer project. Along with Dr. Choi, I made the final presentation to the VP of Technology at the University and to a few other professors and higher ups.
I don't really have any assignments to rush through, or any deadlines to meet in the near future, and it feels great.
Actually, it feels like this...
That's right people, I'm OUT OF SHAWSHANK!
We've yet to commit to developing another version of the search engine, though Dr. Choi did try to volunteer me for a position at any interested company who contacts the university about using our technology on-site. That might fly... it might not, I'm not sure what to make of it.
The presentation was this morning at 8:30. I was up at 7, a full 4 hours before I usually crawl out of bed. We were set up at 8:15, started at 8:35 or so, and were done at about 10:00AM. I felt great about being done, and having completed the summer work with such success.
I got home shortly after 10 and as soon as I sat down at the computer to relax, the power people shut the house's power off. So, apparently, I missed the 15 day window of appropriate payment time... who knows when those crazy people send bills and such. I just know that every once in a while I get some mail with a bunch of numbers and I send out checks with more numbers. I write the checks and throw em in the mail box. Let them sort out the details, I say.
Anywho, in the dark, it was Taylor, me, a warm glass of water, and the roaches. I couldn't have been happier though, because I'm free of obligation for the next few days.
