Good Bye CU






I finally graduated from University of Colorado at Boulder and received a BS degree on computer science and mathematics on May 09, 2008. When I was in my commencement ceremony, I had a flashback of memory when I first came to the United States on Feb, 2000. It has been a long journey for me as it has been very challenging financially, technically, and emotionally. When I first came to the United States, I spoke no English and was fortunate enough to meet a professional 30-years of experienced English teacher, Mrs. Sargent. I also remembered a moment where I had no money to buy the dinner and all I had left on my apartment was a piece of egg, a bowl of rice, and some soy sauce.



However, I have never gave up on myself and my future. I worked diligently and invested my time and effort in both my poker career and my education during last 3 years. Now I have a list of pending offers to choose from and will use those offers to negotiate the best possible salary once I decide the company that I will be working for. I feel very proud of myself. However, this is just another turning point of life for me. I will keep working my way up on both poker career and IT experience. My next goal is to play $2/4 and become a consistently winner and become a Google employee =)

I feel a little outdated on my posts but pictures are coming up pretty soon as soon as I get my camera cable from Ebay =)
