| So sometimes I really amuse myself. Today was one of those times. I walked in to the interview, lookin snappy and fly, and I talked like a big shot. It's too bad that my approach blew up in my face. Apparently the interviewer didn't think I was all I was made out to be and told me to talk about something that WASN'T on my resume. I thought to myself- this means game over man. After seconds of silence, he lectured me on what an interview was, which is sharing about yourself beyond the scope of one or two pieces of paper. He then started asking me questions about my background, like where I was from. To me, this is invading on personal ground. I didn't blurt that to his face, of course. In the end, he told me what most people tell me- I think too much and I want too much control. I can think of at least one person who'd tell that straight to me. A counselor. Probably a professor. Probably more. So that's that. If all works out, going to HK. If things don't work out, I wouldn't mind either, actually. | | |
| I rarely get so worked up about something that it bugs me to the point that I resort to writing about it. Since I am a relatively respectful person, too respectful in some cases, I will leave names out of this post. However, I will note that it's easy to get into pointless arguments that involve two people who have certain perspectives that won't change them, no matter HOW WRONG THEY ARE. These perspective I refer to include those that are racist, and I am by no means saying I'm perfect, and even include dumb things like who's wrong about what and what means a "big deal" and what is "proper protocol" and what exactly is "respectful," honest," and so on.
For the most part, I look very much into the consequences of actions, the good because the good is obviously good, and the bad, because they are most difficult to deal with and usually cause the most problems. When I don't cover all of my bases and things are out of my control (aka someone was supposed to do something and didn't, regardless of a past record of reliability), I consider those things to be out of my control, as things sometimes are.
But in life, I guess there are always exceptions.
Tomorrow's a new day. Take it ez everybody.
*Plus: Figured out to use xanga again after...2 years of non-use?

| Hello, all!
I have appropriated Wakefield's xanga, having tortured the password out of him after kidnapping him and shutting him up in a dark room to watch reruns of the Teletubbies. He is currently a nervous wreck, and twitches every time he hears babies giggling. I fear he will have a nightmare tonight about being chased by Teletubbies.
Alas, such are the aftereffects of Teletubby-torture. Should you find him semi-permanently damaged in the future, forward all psychiatric bills to me, and I may or may not reimburse you.
Ah, he is stirring from his Teletubby-induced coma now. Away I go to torture some more.
-Adieu

Floormate: How are you, Wakefield?
Me: Busy and tired, but other than that, I'm good. And you?
Floormate: All of the above...and excited.
Me: For?
Floormate: Life.
From Wicked
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you:
- Glinda, Wicked
A musical worth watching. If anyone would like to watch it, let's go do it.
