I have made an informal resolution which more than likely will not pan out but I will consider nonetheless: I should go out more during the week. It's been a hectic semester. It's getting more crazy. I'm behind in everything. My email inboxes are overwhelming me. I'm going crazy. But it's something to mull over. Because despite the fact that I wasn ( Read more... )

I think I'm going to apply to law school ( Read more... )

Today I applied to three job positions at a rather reputable news medium. I don't think they'll call me. But it doesn't hurt to try, does it? The plan of attack for this job thing is to try and get out ten resumes a week.

I absolutely dread opening my email. This has been going on for a week. It has to stop. I almost ruined my Monday interview with the most powerful Canadian female in the entertainment business. I am so whigging out about that. I have the questions all set and everything since her assistant wanted them early. As well, unprofessional me has not ( Read more... )

Too much of responsibility is too... too... overwhelming?
