Awesome, so huge recently bought post incoming? :awesome:
Nothing I'm really keen on getting to be honest. It might just go towards my eventual kitchen remodel (which, in this depressed real estate market, isn't exactly a good investment to make any time soon since I have a condo) or, science forbid, actually setting up my formal living room as something more than just a hallway where I pile junk, or even making my guest bedroom into more than just an empty space with no curtains, broken blinds, and an old mattress on the floor.

Just found a new copy of Devil Summoner on ebay for a lot less than the $100+ it's normally going for.

Well, I've decided to continue with my program. It's gotten pretty well known among Canadian developers for being tough and producing capable people with a wide variety of skills, so I think it's worth my while to stick with it. Ubisoft Montreal has had their eye on the program and has helped shape it, as well. They hired four of last year's graduates, and several more have been picked up by some of the larger development studios in Montreal - Eidos, etc. Since only ~5 of us will be graduating next year, since a large chunk have dropped out or are dropping out (we started with 35), and I'm the only one with an interest in UbiMo in my course (and considering my marks), I think I have a pretty good chance a base spot they might have available. Even if not, there are something like 40+ studios in Montreal, one of my teachers was saying, so I think I'd have a chance there down the road if I started off elsewhere, I think.

tldr; Completing my course, interested in Ubisoft, have a pretty decent chance since our course is pretty much Ubisoft's course

Heh, maybe eventually if I got in there, but it'd more likely be managing older stuff or working with bad mobile games or something like that to start off with. Or, god forbid, Just Dance. :uhoh:

It's a beautiful day out, and time for a switch from coffee to ice cap! :D But... No roll up the rim on ice caps. :<
