Because I’m back in Ithaca!

That’s right, I’ve returned to Cornell for the Spring 2008 semester to finish my MEng in Computer Science.

“But wait!” You say, “Weren’t you happily employed at EA as a technical artist for the Sims Division?!” Well, after a good year and a half, it seemed like a good opportunity to leave EA and finish that MEng degree that was put on hold for quite some time.

“So you give up this:

for this!?”

I’ve been pretty bad about that for a while now…but here’s a first step.
