Thanks dearest, and speaking about good company, I promise I'll get on planning the trip soonish. I think we're leaning towards hanging out and around Cambridge for the first few days.

So what goodies await in Greece?

You mean you're not dead AND you got into grad school?! awesome.

formandfile March 8 2007, 21:09:51 UTC

No no, not dead just overworked. Its my fault for dropping classes early on and not making up for it during the summer semesters. Now Im paying for it with 17 hours of coursework. Anyways, thanks, and bingo soon

Fuck ass!

Congratulations. :)

Hey thanks! How's Seattle holding up these days?

It's okay. We have a couple of light rail cars in testing, but the single Airport station bid just came in $35 million over budget.

Tech's City Planning program is one of the best in the nation; congratulations! What's your specialization going to be? (An Economic Development or engineering concentration will result in the most bucks when you graduate.)

If you need an internship, let me know.

Thanks! I wont gloat, but yeah you're right, especially amongst public universities. Im almost certain I'll settle on transportation, although I might try to work out a hybrid GIS/transportation specialization. I think there are a few classes focusing on energy use in planning, so I'll definitely hop on those as I see them.

You're right, a dual civil engineering/planning dual degree would make me quite the marketable guy, but that requires an engineering or physical science undergradate degree, and I settled on Urban Policy Studies at GSU.

I'll keep the internship offer in mind, although I think I have a good prospect lined up. Thanks for the offer though....so how are things going in Smyrna anyway? Are they still driving you crazy (and to the private sector) or have things moderated?

This is why I'm seriously considering civil engineering as well as architecture undergraduate degrees (with an urban planning minor on the architecture). That way I can do anything I want.
