abdadson (Alexander B Dadson):
Actually my plans are not that big, since I would have
but one life when I leave MIT. Anyway......
I should end up majoring in EE or Math or perhaps both
...(yuk!!) or...
I should like to be of some help to Developing Africa too.
As you can really see, today simply ain't ma day.
A bit more about myself?
Love playing the bass guitar, some basketball, and making
friends. It's the easiest thing in the world, especially
with computers.
I love the sun too...I miss it at this point of no return.
More later....
Five year later....
I did major in EE. I had zero extracurricular activities
in MIT except for my position as social chair of the African
Association. I am now a software engineer but I am still
biased in the direction of hardware, so much for the computer
talk. Presently in Silicon Valley with Schlumberger (formerly
Fairchild Semiconductor)
More later
