My first first date is scheduled for Wednesday. How do I feel? Kind of like how I’ve felt on these last three interviews, like he’s not going to come close to my standards. Ugh, have better expectations!!
I had the best conversation with Kerri today, she called me telling me she had an epiphany and speaks my language of positivity now! I’m so happy for her.
I regret every...

Mixing Business with God →
This is why I love the Amway and LTD combo so much. It does just that, mixes God and abundance. What more could you ask for?

The college class of 2012 is in for a rude welcome to the world of work.
Young adults with bachelor’s degrees are increasingly scraping by in lower-wage jobs — waiter or waitress, bartender, retail clerk or receptionist, for example — and that’s confounding their hopes a degree would pay off despite higher tuition and mounting student loans.

Things that I still want to say to you:
It doesn’t matter what your intentions were or what you never intended on doing, you still broke my heart. I can intend on going diamond all day but that wont make me diamond.
The lies that I was hearing were far worse than the ones he was telling you. That everything we ever talked about, laughed about, shared, they all meant nothing. That after all...

I both want to answer this question, because my relationships have been (and continue to be) influenced by my weight, and don’t want to answer it, obviously because it’s really personal in nature. But I’ve been trying and trying to make peace with my feelings surrounding romantic relationships and to no avail. So maybe thinking about it and writing about it will help. Maybe I won’t...
A couple nights ago I had a dream that me and this guy were dating. We were hanging out with a bunch of people and we were acting like a couple.
Usually when I like a guy I’ll try to get near him as often as I can, whether it be sitting near him or talking with the group he’s with, whatever. But it generally backfires, probably because I’m trying too hard.

Yeah anyway, Caitlin talked about the research world is grant driven. So basically you just have to throw out some good sounding data you gather a month before your grant application is due and you write a paper about it hoping you get funding again. In business there’s a deadline or you lose money.
If research started being run like a business cancer would be cured. Caitlin says its...
Interview number 3
Tomorrow. I don’t think I want the job. Sigh.
I want the Schneider Electric job. Talking to Caitlin confirmed that. She said that the “doing something good” part is hard to keep in front of you if your job stinks. And basically that research stinks because it’s not run like a business. Car+Gas+Insurance+Laptop+Cell+skills that will keep me employable forever even though I...
