We were...
I watched "We Were Soliders" tonight.
Men and women are dying again.
And the American terrorist who put them there still has free reign.
Lt. Colonel Nguyen: Those who are about to fight and die, I am grateful.

mmm...breakfast at 3:34
I ate my first meal...cold leftover spaghetti...at 3:34 p.m. today.
It wasn't because I had a leisurely day and slept late.
Or because I wasn't hungry.
I woke up at nine after staying up until 12:30 to work on the paper. I made coffee and breakfast and went back to work on the paper. Then I had to leave for a group meeting. I grabbed my coffee and put the hot cereal I made on the back burner of the stove. I did grab some toast though.
We came back from the group meeting at 11:30 and I worked until 1:34 on the paper before I left for work. (and my desk broke, so I have to fix that tonight). I was five minutes late for work, and first got the opportunity to eat.
But I'm making steak tonight and kerry's sharing her twice baked potatoes.
But by 5 p.m. the paper will be bound and I will no longer have to worry about it.
Whoo.

I wanted you to know I keep your photograph, and I know it serves me well.
I was looking up existential this morning and the first thing I saw when I opened the book was a picture of a guillotine. I love my dictionary. :-D

It's one thing to threaten to lick people/things. It's another thing entirely when you physically have to restrain yourself because you realize that's not an acceptable practice in society.

I'm revisitng my enjoyment of John Mayer and Jason Mraz. I'm really feeling the mellow groove right now.

It makes me question...
If you cannot:
- Put together a PowerPoint
- Create bullet points from written information
- Follow directions (written or verbal)
- Write sections for a paper based on your own notes
- Articulate your own concerns
- Understand the concerns/points of others
This leads me to wonder
Why,
WHY?!
Why choose the field of communication? Where do you possiblily see your future?
#>Stressed<#
I swear, the chair is different
It never fails. Whenever there's something I have to do, or if I have a ton of work...there's always something waiting for me when I get here. And then, when I'm open there's nothing and I'm bored. I sit. And get distracted.
Ahh, mail merge. How I loathe thee.
I saw Bjorn yesterday. He came into the Advising Office and was using the computer. He was lamenting with his friend about a Spanish test. He asked the girl sitting next to him how to say a phrase. She answered his question and said if he needed more help, he could always go to the International Center. She asked his name and he said Bjorn. Now, at this point my ears perked up...how many bjorns are there? (at UWGB, 4) I knew he transfered from UWGB to the local campus when I was there, but haven't seen him since I left. Sure enough it was him. I wonder if he's still playing the sax for some sort of band. He was amazing.
Okay, done with the folding/stuffing. Now to work some on the paper and powerpoint (ick).

Job Search Rant
Researching the internship/job fair employers
Why the hell am I a communication major? When apparently there's a shit-ton of jobs in financial services (the only thing that interests me about AFLAC is the ducky).
How am I supposed to find a job that's not in sales?
Rar.
But hey, the ruby red hippo made me smile
....but now it's kinda creeping me out.
Do I looked pained? Well maybe that's because I've gone to 33 company web sites and found one (yes one out of 33--leaving 32 companies that can bite me) company looking for communications...and not selling their damn products or dealing with bitchy customers! (sales/marketing; customer service)
FYI: don't list communication in the description if all you're looking for is someone who can type, write in complete sentences and speak without drooling over yourself
5 companies out of 60 something. Maybe three that look interesting
