    You'd be better off writing your program with help from tutorials and then offering the finished product(s) to some companies, then they'll have the added incentive of not having to wait for new stuff!

    But yeah, go get a copy of Full Metal Jacket and make notes.

    Hmmm. Well, for starters, tell us a little about yourself.
    Your likes, your dislikes, your strengths and your weaknesseses.
    Where do you picture yourself in 2, 5, and 10 years.

    Where do you want to be in 2, 5, and 10 years.

    Are you two serious?
    Gonna get married? 2 Kids, Golden retriever, a cat and inlaws that you just can't say no to???

    What some real advice....DON'T SEND EMAIL to these people. There is absolutely nothing personal about it, and it is too easy to dismiss. If you REALLY want this, then you need to put in some footwork and actually go to these companies to talk to the head IT guy/gal. You could also call, it is easier, but less impressive.

    EMAIL DOESN'T work. This is your first lesson in the business world. Showing your commitment by visiting the place will say a lot about your character, and that you are serious about it!

    Good luck.

    Yeh ..I totally agree with hellswraith.

    Now a days email has become a timepass stuff. Usually comps donnt give much weitage to the emails ... going personally is a good idea, it shows that u r really interested in.But better get an appointment before as otherwiese u may need to wait a long.
    Regards
