Okay so I didn't get that job at GE, and on top of it, I would never have to relocate to Cincinnati unless I wanted to. I'm still up for some other "direct hire" jobs rather their crazy masters program, but whatever. I'll take what I can get ( Read more... )

I have an interview with General Electric tomorrow for their Edison Engineering Development Program (EEDP) where I could become a candidate to go through a 2-3 year program that would conclude with me being an R&D Turbojet "Leader." GE uses the term "leader" rather management for their extremely well-respected company "philosophy ( Read more... )

I'm finding drinking a less entertaining activity the more I realize that it kills any absolute planning or fun for people who depend on plans being met... and I have not gotten drunk at any parties except my own thus far. I think I'm getting sick of it because it takes the fun out when most of your friends are graduated and you are trying to meet ( Read more... )

Well, I am going to have to say that after Saturday night I feel I took a good step in the style department. On top of bulking up from the gym and getting a new hair do and whatnot, I started to realize why hot girls hide a lot: You get scared of saying "No" to people when they hit on you left and right because it makes you feel like a pessimist. I ( Read more... )

Yeah yeah yeah... I know I just got one like a year ago, but when the time comes:

So, for my very last summer vacation as an undergrad I am going to camp sunshine to play wiffle ball, kayak, help kids, chill with some of my best friends, and finally get some damn sun to eliminate my horrid paleness. This is really not something I pictured myself doing: a camp counselor for christ's sake... Since when do I do that kind of stuff? ( Read more... )

I'm starting to make a greater effort to cut off ties with people I am mere acquaintances with. I don't know if this is a good or bad thing yet, but I do know this: There is a fine line between someone I call a friend and an acquaintance ( Read more... )

Okay so I got a job right away (awesome), I got my bass skillz on the high rise (absolutely incredible how fast I'm getting better), and the gym is not going so bad for having missed so many weeks (stength by steel!). The only thing I want in life just has not hit me yet and although it has not even been a full year since I had my long-term ( Read more... )

I just literally scratched like thirty people off my friends list - not an actual list like for livejournal, facebook, or aim, etc, but i mean, i just realized how stupid i am for making friends with so many people. I don't think I'm superior and that they should not be allowed to be my friend, but it took me awhile to realize that some of my newly ( Read more... )

I am going to have to come to the conclusion that I am just not meant to meet girls at UMass. I'm saying because every single damn time I visit another college or go elsewhere, I meet a girl I like that likes me. It's sickening how UMass has such a high population and the variety is insignificant enough that I have not met anyone there. Is it just ( Read more... )
