Had my first "real" job interview today.  I call this my first real interview since the Firestone interview was really just a follow-up to my internship, so I was definitely less worried from the get-go.

Prefacing my interview story I have to say: this week was, quite possibly, the worst week for this interview to be scheduled.  I basically wanted ( Read more... )

-Tea! (this was instigated by some impromptu tea-scapades courtesy of Chris's mom when he was home and sick...I like tea ( Read more... )

Now, I'm not a completely, 100% legal consumer all the time.

However, I'm usually pretty legal and rule-compliant when it comes to console video games (the only exception being my Nintendo DS).  On the PC, I can't state that I'm excellent, but when it comes to full-fledged PC games ($40 or more in stores), I generally pre-order and purchase fully ( Read more... )

I like that mix.  Appropriate for these past few weeks, methinks.

So job-hunting has been fun.  I've been looking into several places, particularly Epic Systems in Verona.  My parents are obviously vying for me to take a job either with Firestone or with Epic (if offered one, although I haven't even got an interview yet), and I, on the other hand, ( Read more... )

Today has been pretty productive so far, and it seems it's only going to be more productive as the night goes on since I have a good amount of homework to do tonight, too.  Urg.

My dad purchased me a new video card last week from tigerdirect.com.  He literally called on Thursday at 6pm or so and told me he had just ordered one online, and it came ( Read more... )

Spore won't play on my pc because of my older video card.  *grumbles*  This is currently causing some major issues for my mental health (as my mom puts it), but should hopefully be worked out soon (this weekend I'm hoping).

Got an e-mail from Abercrombie & Fitch about their manager-in-training program.  The HR manager would like to meet me prior to ( Read more... )

I'll start with the best commentary and go downhill from there, so you can choose to stop reading whenever you'd like.

While walking to class today I ventured past Lucky (facing University Avenue) for the first time.  They have a doorman.  A doorman.  No one else fails to see the idiocy in this?!?!  We're on a college campus.  Seriously?  I think ( Read more... )

For those who read Ctrl-Alt-Del, enjoy today's comic thoroughly.

Body is in shambles today after my 1/2 hour of Wii Fit yesterday.  OW.  Tummers is really in pain, with arms close behind.  I still might do some more today, but more yoga and balance activities rather than strength training.

Watched The Amateurs yesterday (with Jeff Bridges); actually ( Read more... )

Yeah, seriously, not cool ( Read more... )

So much has been happening over the past few weeks.  Gah.  Where to begin?

First off, today I found another great song.  Took me a while, though, since apparently I cannot hear lyrics very well.  Rihanna's "Disturbia" is yet another truly awesome dance hit.

Been working so much lately I kinda broke down yesterday.  Working paired with future worries ( Read more... )
