That's pretty much the order of my life for the next 5 years and it is also the order of my weekend! Tomorrow I'll go to school and afterward I will get on a charter bus and will be on my way to the University of Virginia (UVa) in Charlottesville, VA.
I applied for this weekend program called Juntos Podemos which encourages Hispanics to major in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) fields. I had to write some essays and get a recommendation from a teacher (thanks Ms. Pizzazz!) and mail it in. Anyways, so I will arrive at UVa and they will do some presentations I'm guessing and some other stuff and then I get to spend a night in a dorm which is awesome. Then the next day I'm guessing they will do a campus tour and talk more about the STEM majors. Then there is some engineering competition (in teams) and a dinner and then I go home. It'll be pretty awesome and tomorrow is suppose to be a gorgeous day, I'm really looking forward to it.
After I graduate for real I plan to go get a job (I'll get my Master's later in life) but for now I guess I'll have to stick with my new part time job =]. Yup you read right folks, this guy is entering the workforce of America! I went to an interview on Monday which I thought went well and it turns out that it went so well I got a job offer! This will be my first ever job and I will be working at an undisclosed ice cream parlor which I will call Color Spectrum from now on. It's pretty exciting because now I will have extra cash to spend and save (a car maybe?) All I know is that it's going to be a very fun weekend.
