Though this was the default title, I felt as though it was an appropriate title for the first post of a Computer Science degree capstone project blog. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As everyone enjoys talking about themselves, I thought I could start this off by introducing myself. My name is Ann Marie Hicks, I turned 25 less than two weeks ago, and I live in Columbia, South Carolina. I have a cat, Sunday, and a currently unnamed foster kitten who I have been calling “little boy”. I have been fostering cats for about two years now, but I think “little boy” might be my first foster fail (which sounds terrible but just means I’m going to keep him). My hobbies include starting arts and crafts projects and finishing about half of them, watching my boyfriend cook, and long-weekend trips to places within a 6-hour drive. Our most recent excursion was to DC over Labor Day weekend, which is 7 hours away but we first stopped in Richmond to visit family, so technically the original destination was less than 6. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was put in the Soundbendor Lab Website group, which wasn’t my first choice but it’s kind of hard to be upset about your project being web development. Also, it’s only been a few days since being placed in our groups, but from the bit of contact we’ve had, I’m fairly certain I have excellent teammates. I’m excited to be starting this capstone project as it indicates the beginning of the end of my undergraduate career, which is both a thrilling and terrifying prospect. On the one hand, I started college in the fall of 2016, so 3 different schools, 2 breaks, and 1 global pandemic later, I am more than ready to be done with this chapter of my life. On the other hand, I have no idea what the next chapter holds, and as the main goal during my quarter century here on Earth has been to get through school, I know just setting the next long-term goal will be an ordeal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully, I have a school year and capstone project to worry about before I really have to face that crisis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
