uncertainty theory

I am 31 (born in 1981) now. From Vietnam, came to the US 6-7 years ago (after completion of BA degree in Business), and started from the beginning: going to the ESL classes and working as a waiter. Then I joined the US Army. I enjoy the experience of being a soldier, and get the support for my education (GI Bill, Bonus, and Tuition Assistance). I got the AA degree from St. Louis community college (FP) last Summer, and am on the way to finish BS degree in Computer Science at UMSL sometimes within Fall 2013 to Spring 2014, then go straight to a grad program. Hopefully I can achieve a PhD before the age of (31 + 1 + 6 = 38) ^^ There is a saying, "it's never late to start something new." And workout 15-30 minutes everyday if possible (running, swimming, or stretching, etc.) will help a person a lots in the long way ahead

Currently an undergrad CS-major at UMSL now, I would say the St. Louis is a great choice for anyone to come and study because (i)The cost of living here is not expensive compared with CA or FL and (ii)There are several decent schools here, such as WashU, St. Louis U, and UMSL. It is WashU in St. Louis, MST, or Mizzou to be the Phd program that I will be attending. However, CA (Los, San Jose), Florida, and Texas (Houston) are my preferred choices to work and live because of the weather and food

Be confident = That's all you need.
