Fall 2013 Semester

The fall 2013 semester started on Monday. I am taking Mosaic I, Japanese Oral Intensive II, Managerial Economics, Career Strategies, and an internship. My internship is at a company called PechaKucha. At PechaKucha my job is to edit and upload presentations to their website. It's actually rather fun. PechaKucha is located in an architecture company's office, as it was founded by the owners of that architecture firm. Everyone I have met there so far have been great people. I am really looking forward to working with them this semester.

In my career strategies class we are required to create a Linkedin profile and acquire at least 30 connections. I created my profile a few hours ago. Please add me: http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=285645844.

I have also created a Twitter account. My ID is _TysonL_.

I have no school on Fridays. I plan on using them mostly for catching up on homework as I don't have time from Monday to Thursday.

Today I studied Japanese a lot and applied for a few translator positions. One of which has a referral program where I can earn a bonus of 10% of my referral's earnings. It is called textmasters.com. To help fund my living expenses I am going to do translation work and try to get as many people as I can to also do translation work through this website. If any of you reading this are bilingual and want to make some extra money, please register through my referral link: http://us.textmaster.com/?pid=51fe158129e16717b600003a
