Time for Mega Consumerism
I love Thanksgiving and Christmas! Only thing is, it's kinda sad that to shop for my sister, I have to buy something on her wishlist. -
LiveJournal Hard Copy
It would be pretty cool to have all my LiveJournal entries bound into a little journal. Has someone already thought of this? Is it available somewhere? -
TriCore
Oh yeah, I passed the drug screening, and I'm gonna go in tomorrow for some paperwork. Next Monday and Tuesday are my new employee orientation, and I start officially on Wednesday. Ohmygod I'm so excited! -
Style
I went to San Diego and was content to have a UCSD frisbee and some Urban Outfitters retro-color socks as my souvenirs. I really like weirdly color-coordinated socks and boxers, and I think that sensibility is going to start infecting the more apparent pieces of my wardrobe. They're not exactly just ugly--more like so ugly they're cute. I think ( Read more... ) -

Just by thinking about it several times, it magnifies itself in my mind and drives me crazy. I feel better off ( Read more... ) -
Job Interview
I'm scared! I don't have much experience in interviews. My first position, as an intern at Lovelace, didn't really have an interview at all. It was a final presentation for my high school genetics class to which my genetics teacher had invited a handful of biology-related professionals. One of them was from Lovelace and was pleased to extend ( Read more... ) -
Eye Contact
It's hard for me to maintain eye contact when I'm one-on-one with anyone. I can do it when one person is telling a story to a group of people, but then again, the storyteller isn't looking at me the whole time. It's not even easy with my best friends and family. I don't know why. I know it comes off as disinterest, and that doesn't bode well ( Read more... ) -
