My Penn State Days
Thursday, 10 August 2006
Almost at the end of internship...
Mood:  a-ok
Now Playing: Carl Orff - O Fortuna from Carmina Burana suite
Topic: My Penn State Days

Days are passing by. So many experiences here. But can't wait till I get back to my beloved Penn State!

Learnt so many things. My foundations in VC++, VB has improved considerably. I learnt new languages like TCL, TTCN. Have worked with physical instruments, such as RedLine WiMAX-certified base station and subscriber stations, Agilent Vector Signal Analyzer and Vector Signal Generator, Ixia IxChariot Traffic simulation software, PROPSim C8 channel model emulator, Rohde & Schwarz NRPZ91 RF Power Meter, so on and so on. So a lot of updating to be done on my resume...

But Oh My God, I miss Penn State so much, and the good old enjoyable classes and theory. I guess I am more comfortable with theory than practical things, no matter how much enjoyable they are.

I have seen the corporate life, and it's not all so inspiring at the moment. I have seen how industries are affected by so many factors other than all the research and manufacturing efforts they put in their relevant areas. It'd be too much to handle for me, had I been a permanent part of it all.

So Penn State, here I come, September 2nd, and counting my days...
