Mandy and I spoke the other day, and after some reflection I believe that this down feeling I've been experiencing lately is just a reflection of losing my job and the apathy that comes with it. It's tough to work hard for something that you know you'll no longer be a part of shortly. I can't bust my butt on the press release I'm supposed to do ( Read more... )

My philosophy, of fairly recently, has been very negative. I've been approaching life from a 'what can I get away with' kind of stance.

I seem to be full of them today. I grabbed my phone but forgot my phone charger. I have internet but it doesn't help me without a phone (at least to do work or much else that's useful).

I have noticed a lot of things wrong with my current situation. I've resolved to fix these things, and have included the solutions below as well. If you come up with ( Read more... )

When I saw this, sitting in a room completely on my own, I clapped.



Some of the results you can anticipate:

So, it looks like I'm on my way out of MoPIRG...i.e. my job. I've proven, this weekend in Philadelphia, that I can't canvass well. So what does that mean for my career, you may ask? I'm not sure yet, but here's my plan so far ( Read more... )
