choices and choices

well that microsoft lady did come on monday. You see she came on Monday and it was an enjoyable talk, except for some people who found it rather long and boring, I got a pretty good insight about her job. She's a premier field engineer, no it does not involve cars or anything. Yes, no she doesn't work in the USA. She works in the UK Microsoft company which is in Reading. Yes in Yorkshire I think, which is good for me, because I'm from Yorkshire, so yeah haha yorkshire pride. LOL. Anyway she talked about all the opportunities she had , like she get' to travel so much even though she's travelling around going to seminars and meetings, she gets to meet new people and places. Now come on, who doesn't want a job that means you get to travel around the globe and meet new people, I mean, I'd love to be going to Tokyo one week and then couple of months later to the US for a meeting even, this means that you get the chance to explore whilst you also get some knowledge into your brain. She also said they were lacking females, I'm a female I may be at an advantage then, premier field engineering is pretty new she mentioned that a couple of times which was okay and yeah well I think we heard her the first time. She kept rambling on and I was just wondering how that woman kept on talking, and you know she talked about how her job requires her to go do talk and me being a shy person I really want to start being more talkative in front of class and not having a red face everytime someone notices me. I hate it, but I get red faced when I go up in front of classes and have to do a presentation or a teacher picks on me or someone who I don't know starts talking to me. Me and new people and people are not good, I suck at making new friends, but if i have to, then somehow I do get friend..I just won't remember how I became friend with you. Yeah it sucks to be a friend of mine. Anyway since she's came and started talking, my heads in a little buzz and it's all because she mentioned internship. She mentioned that Microsoft offers those and you know what I love microsoft. I mean, I've used windows and office all my life and well Bill Gates is a great role model. He's a fricken genuis and so is his team, yeah I know he's not the only man haha. Okay so she mentioned something like, err ....Microsoft does with some colleges. Now that some is actually I have no idea, but my local Universty doesn't do it, like only the gaming part of it has that internship and I don't really like gaming. I talked to my Dad about it, he was a bit iffy saying things like.. ' you can't cook, you can't iron' basically he was just listing down all negative points saying how a person like me wouldn't be able to survive alone without my mom. Yeah, if you don't let me loose, how am I supposed to know? suck right. Anyway so I checked up Universtys, lots of them and well like I said I don't really know anything about engineering and..well you know there are a lot of different aspects of Microsoft. So as planned, I plan to stick to my area of choice which is Software development, don't ask me why . I don't know, I love software and developing it seems fun. I like the idea of that. haha. Sooo...what's my problem.
ERMMM I need to know the Uni's that do the Microsoft internship so I can attend them and have a higher chance of getting into the company for my training year. I don't have to get a job there you see, just I want my training done there. You see I'm really paranoid, I really want a good future and me having to go my local college just because it saves money....really isn't a good enough excuse to make me stay other than my friends, but you know, my future life and well I really do want to move away, learn stuff make friends and you know. Well I don't know about you, but I've been looking up.
I've come to conclusion right now, I rather like the Universty of HULL. You see, it's near scarbrough, my brother loves scarbrough, and i'm a sucker for beaches, water and big long island of nothingness and also I've seen the scenery and it's beautiful. Now...all I need to find out, is if that they have that internship offer available in thier uni. If they do, I might just go off there.
Money will probably be a problem, I'll be getting loans I bet and obviously paying them myself so I really don't need my parents worrying about them. I'll have to pay them back and I will you know, so money...yeah I'm not rich but i'm not poor either am I. cos I do live in a house with internet connection.
