Saturday Morning: CSE Departmental Graduation. Lots of CSE friends in attendance. I won an unexpected “Undergraduate Service Award” for volunteering a lot for CSE events. Jacob Nelson won a well-deserved Bob Bandes TA award for his excellent work as a TA in CSE 467 — the 3D video card class. The presenter read one of my quotes during the presentation of the award. Christine talked to me during the reception afterwards (she was attending for\/with someone else) and my mom broke her shoe, so I had to fix it. Thats the way things go sometimes.<\/p>\n
Saturday Afternoon: UW Graduation. Quincy Jones spoke, I thought it was mostly good with a few odd places, but overall a good speech. Listening to all of the Ph.D.’s names was painfully long, but it was nice and sunny (I have the burn to prove it) and I was seated with friends so life was good. We finally got to walk and received nice diploma holders with (of course) fake diplomas in them. The ceremony lasted a little over 4.5 hours; we began queuing an hour before that. So it was a long day already.<\/p>\n
Saturday evening: Graduation party. Lots of friends and family showed up. We had great food and I had a great time.<\/p>\n
Now I have one week off before I start up at Amazon.com for a summer internship!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
