Don't worry. Self confidence is key to success. You can do the impossible. Keep saying that and believe in yourself.

Wow... $40 an hour. Life of a hard-working Engineer Major! Hope I land such a job in the not so distant future.

Lucky you, hope for the best.

Oh I do believe in myself, but I for some reason I get nervous in situations I normally wouldn't.

Like the first phone interview with them I was both cold as fuck and nervous because I kept hearing from the HR person that there's a lot of pressure these coming months (they're pushing out a lot of projects) and they're looking the best of the best. So during the interview I stuttered quite a lot, over-talked them (I was on speaker talking to 2 guys) while they were mid-sentence, and hesitant. As you can expect, I was surprised when they called a second time and said they liked my initial interview.

Yea, seriously, haha. Working on their corporate website is one of the first projects I'll be tasked with, is what I was told.

Yea, they're looking really good. I haven't dove deeper into their End of Nations game, but I read up on the mechanics and gimmicks of Rift and it sounds really cool (ie. an ever-dynamic server/environment).

I tried that with my last 10 blog posts, but it just didn't feel the same.

Hehe, thanks. Nah, I'm not a graduate. I dropped out of college. Okay, that's a lie. I got disqualified from college. I was initially a Civil Engineer major. All my web engineer knowledge and skills are self-taught (I think that's why one of the interviewers was really interested in me because he was self-taught also).

Bad grades, man. Bad grades. As in straight Ds and Fs across the board with an occasional A or B here and there. I thought I wasn't cut out for Civil Engineering at first, but then I realized, after trying another major, that I just wasn't cut out for college in general. I wish I would've realized that years before.

Really, why the M5? Are you considering getting into racing, or do you just like to drive fast?

It is awesome you pulled yourself together because college dropouts usually settle for shitty jobs/are lazy in general. Good luck men.

No wonder interwiever took interest in you, autodidacts are not that common
