Saddest. Copy meeting. Ever.
Also, meeting that I least want to discuss on the internet. Ever.
So there’s that. Intrigued? Don’t worry, it’s not that interesting to you outsider-type people.
BUT everyone I would normally talk to about this is either listening to the radio, or not returning my calls yet. Hence, this also leads to:
Vaguest. Entry. Ever.

Say Gügl.

Factoid: I cannot handle free time.
I totally squandered my first free Monday. By which I mean I didn’t get much homework done. I did, however, get my laundry done and visit the babysitting agency and get a kickass job, and also get pissed off at computers and printers and old women who hold up printer [...]

Eight-Eight-OhEight

August 8, 2008

I’m in my final countdown to the end of this internship… this is my third-to-last day. Also, it’s the first day of 3 where I’ll be here all alone, since the rest of my department is too busy vacationing or whatever. Seriously, even my boss is gone today.
So how is this solitude going? Not so [...]

Awesome

August 4, 2008

I had my meet-and-greet today and the only word that I can think of to describe it is “awesome.” Before we decry the failure of today’s education system slash the youth of this country, I should let you in on the nuanced and varied ways that I think she was awesome:
Awesome in the sense that [...]

Battle of the senators

August 1, 2008

Hillary Clinton proved that she was capable of comebacks on Friday night, as her office’s senate team came back to defeat Schumer’s Sluggers for a 12-6 victory.
The Clinterns jumped out to an early lead against their crosstown rivals, and led by a score of 3-0 by the end of the first inning. Over the next [...]

Fashion show at lunch

July 30, 2008

Guess who sat in yellow chalk at lunch, waving off offers of pieces of paper to sit on?
That would be me.
And guess who is now sporting some stylish yellow smudges all over her ass?
Yes, that would also be me.
I think it’s a good look, really adding some pizzazz to my blah business casual outfit. Who [...]

It’s like when I was in ‘Nam

July 22, 2008

What bothers me most about work is when I’m not able to do anything to help people. I don’t mean when I’m not allowed to help people because it’s not under my office’s authority–I mean when I could help, but my hands are tied.
[Sidenote: in high school, I had this horrible Spanish teacher who literally [...]

I am so deep, y’all

July 21, 2008

Aside from the heat, which I won’t shut up about (as you may have noticed), this summer has been good to me.
Not good as in, “Oh, this summer is great for my future!” but good for me as in, “I’m experiencing the city in a new way and spending time with different people, and growing [...]

It’s finally hot enough to count as summer, but…

July 18, 2008

Somehow, I feel like the summer’s almost over. Even though there’s still almost a month left. Well, actually, just right now, I realized that I have less than 4 weeks, so maybe it is almost over.
I’m already thinking of packing and moving and classes. It’s like last summer, where as soon as Rachel came to [...]

No, YOU go girl!

July 9, 2008

So here’s an issue with this blog here: I’m not actually supposed to discuss my job because I signed a confidentiality agreement or something. So let’s just say that I work in, um, “consumer relations” for a somewhat famous  “company.” See what I did with the quotes there? It’s not that I’m not supposed to [...]
