With less than a week now until the end of the semester, things are getting pretty busy! But instead of complaining about all of the stuff I have to do in the next 6 1/2 days, I’m going to update everyone on my summer plans.
I’m most likely (as in, already registered for) taking summer classes here at RPI. I have to be in Troy anyway and have a part-time job (plus all of the contract work on the side), so I figured I would get a bit ahead and take some classes.
The other cool thing is that I’m definitely graduating next May. In the fall I’m going to apply for grad school and try to find a job. I want to keep my options open, and I would be happy with either outcome assuming I got a good job. Eventually, however, I would like to attend grad school (it’s just a question of doing it now or after a few years of being in the “real world”).
My parents are also moving back to the States (to our old house in Ohio) from Cairo. The problem with taking classes is that I won’t be able to visit them because there aren’t any breaks long enough to allow me to make the drive. That may have to wait until August. I’m going to try to make one last trip to Cairo in August to visit my Dad, anyone out there wanna come along?? It’d be the trip of a lifetime, I’d make sure of it!!
So that’s a quick update, more in a few weeks I promise 
Good luck to everyone whose taking finals or finishing with school or graduating or taking IB’s or whatever!!
