Computer Software Engineer

                What I want to be when I grow up is to be a Computer Software Engineer. Preferably I would like to work in Los Angeles and I found the perfect job. The Job is at the company Leisure Link, Inc. It is the largest distributor network of professional managed vacation homes, condos and specialty lodging, and over 1500 properties throughout North America and Europe. Its job position is a full-time employee. The level of education that it requires is a Master’s degree in computer science, computer engineering, or a related field is required.  It is located in Pasadena, California. Its location is right of the 210 Freeway.  Its industries include travel, transportation, and tourism.
                The requirements of knowledge include knowing how to design and develop custom software applications for traveling industries and internet distribution systems including, but not limited to: (ARM) Active Revenue Management, (SOA) Service Oriental Architecture, (B2C) Business to Consumer Systems, and various other applications. Some things you are going to do in the job involve pricing, booking, gateways, data warehouse, and pricing cache services. Starting salary is around 80,000 dollars.
             Well me personally I like this carrier because I like to work with computers. The person that inspired me to do this was probably my cousin Osvaldo. When I was small my auntie used to take care of so I would always be with my cousins and he was the one that started showing me like how computers work and everything. One time he made this computer himself with the best parts of different computers so it could work faster and better. He ended up using about 1000-1500 dollars on it. I had fun trying to help him and see what he did. That’s how I became inspired to become a computer engineer.

Getting High Off Of Oysters?

            Now I have heard a lot of weird things in my life but this is one of the weirdest. I mean this is really one of the weirdest. Well we all know that there are people in the world that do drugs. We all know that people sell it, transport it, and then the consumer, and well consume it. People grow it in their backyards, in their basements, and in plain sight in fields. Then when they transport it they put in into little packages, of baggies or whatever. Then they bring over the border in trailers, trucks, boxes, crates ECT. But honestly, I thing that the guy who transported these “Goodies” went all out. He bought exactly 80 clams of oysters, cleaned them out, and put the drugs in there. The clams held 152 grams or 5.36 ounces of cocaine and its value for the bust was roughly about 10,000 dollars. WOW exactly.
This man, David Pocasangre Vaquiz, was arrested at in airport in Panama. He said he was going to transport the drugs here, in the US to the eastern state of Virginia. He was originally from El Salvador but is going to be brought here to the US to be trialed. He says he used the methods of the “Shoe Cocaine Guy” witch basically did the same thing that Mr. Pocasangre Vaquiz except well with shoes. . Now actually, I think this man is pretty stupid. If your transporting drugs why would you put them in your luggage knowing that their going open it and see what’s inside?

Micro-Chip Madness

I thought that the text we read was pretty interesting. Basically it just talked about future technology and stuff. There are new things being invented. They’re starting to make micro-chips that can send wave signals. These signals are activated by a sensor. This sensor can detect these waves. Basically, you will never lose anything ever again. Any time you lose your phone or pants or anything, just activate the sensor and boom, I found it.
Honestly, this revolutionizes everything. You can put this on any type of items in a store to keep track that no one is trying to steal anything. You can put this on cars and other vehicles so that if there is an accident, robbery, or the people get lost, you can find them. You can attach them to people so that if there is a natural disaster you can find them and treat them with care. Life here on earth would become so much easier.
The scientist also developed a micro-chip that activated on time intervals. Its really cool b/cz an item/appliance will turn on when it needs to and only when it needs to. Basically you program your everday appliances to work kind of like with an alarm.
Our energy consumption would go down a lot with this new micro-chip. Not only that, our lives would be so much easier. Imagine waking up to see that your dishwasher cleaned the dishes, your coffee maker made fresh hot coffee, your shower is up and running steamy hot water, your toaster made fresh toast, and your car is up and running ready to leave to work. How easy would that be?
