Since I didn’t get the job offer that I wanted for the next work term, I’ll be staying in Waterloo doing some extra courses as my “Plan B”. I’ve got the preliminary go ahead by the ECE department, so it is only a matter of paper pushing to make it official. What is “it”? A [...]
For reasons beyond any plausible explanation that I can give, I just had the spontaneous urge to extend my academic career by an extra term to do something totally crazy. It might not be a full load term too, since I’ll probably be able to write off a few of my engineering courses as anti-reqs.
Kind of insane? Oh yea. There’s only one employer info session that I have scheduled in too. There’s also a bunch of things that didn’t make it into the calendar this week… i.e. passport renewal, student loan interest free paperwork, etc etc. =(

As of today, I am attending 7 courses, including 4 lab courses. With my somewhat of a commute in between and the tutorials kicking in next week, I will officially return to the world of no life.
The 7 courses that I’m taking now are:
ECE 204 - Numerical Methods
ECE 222 - Digital Computers
ECE 231 - Electronic [...]
