My goals for this summer

May 15th, 2008 by kwvarga

I am taking 3 classes (technically 4 with my internship credit) and have 2 jobs (My on-campus student lab tech position as well as my Dell Gaming Representative position)

My goals are as follows:

  • Have a 3.5 GPA or higher, this means for sure A’cing my American History class as well as my British Lit class. I would REALLY like to get an A in FI302, but I have heard a few horror stories, I guess it will depend on my effort and the quality of teacher/gta that I get.
  • Not miss any class. I need to get better at this part a lot.
  • Get recognition from Dell/RepNation about my work.. I am not satisfied with being “just another campus rep” to them. I want to outsell my expectations, and have a fun time doing it.
  • Work better at my on-campus job. I want the A&S labs to be running flawlessly. Currently, this is not the case, but hopefully once we get a new image for all the labs running, we can get it working right.
  • And the shocker of the story… lose weight and drop to 235 - 245. It’s not much, but if I can get into the habits that will let me drop 15 pounds, it will let me drop 30 as well. This includes, but is not limited to, drinking less coke, eating less fast food, eating out, and working out some.
  • This kind of goes along with the last note, but I want to cook some more.. nothing too fancy, but I don’t need to be ordering delivery sandwiches for 9 bucks a pop after I tip the driver, when I can buy enough bread, mayo, ham, turkey, cheese, and lettuce to make me 20 sandwiches for less than 10 bucks.

Well, this concludes this note.

Mint.com - Financial Management

May 15th, 2008 by kwvarga

I have recently discovered www.mint.com and let me tell you, it is awesome.

It is certified by 3 different security agencies and has been around a while and I feel secure giving them access to my bank account websites.

I now can view my purchases on both of my debit cads, my paypal account, AND view how my investments are going, all from one, easy to use website.

However, my favorite feature is how it automatically categorizes my purchases into Fast Food, Restaurants, Entertainment, etc. catalogs. It was also incredibly easy to add my own rules for categorizing certain stores, such as Jimmy Johns Delivery subs to go to Fast Food as well.

This will let me watch my money more carefully, and assist while I try to close my Wachovia account in favor of my new Schwab account.

New Website

May 15th, 2008 by kwvarga

I have done this multiple times in the past, but this time I am going to stick to this blog.

I will have a new post ATLEAST once a week every week barring extreme circumstances.

I will post personal, funny, business, technology, consulting, financial, and whatever else that I want to on this blog.

And yes I know this design is default, but I will update it soon. Maybe tonight, maybe next week. Just keep checking back.
