But yeah it still makes me feel shitty.

Bal, don't take what everyone says to heart. You know that you are good at what you do. You need to take that and own it, then go out there and show it. Times are tough, but you are tougher!

Is it Jarre's birthday? yay! cake for all!

It's my brother's birthday too :p

And thanks Mom, I'm aware of that but it is so easy to just fall into a spiral of fear and despair D: that being said I have just scheduled a new interview for tomorrow... crossing fingers, it is at a place that I have been wanting to work at for a long time now. I will bring a knife this time around :D

On your way to the interview, say "This job is mine! This job is mine!" 100 times! Go in their and show them how you can easily do that job while standing on your head spitting nickels!

ahaha, lets hope i dont say it out loud, guy might think im a weirdo.

in any case, that job is in this really awesome place where some guy decided to invest in a bunch of old factory buildings and brought them back to life and just turned the factories into working offices where dozens of companies house their businesses, its full of artists and culture because the place was mainly adopted by those types of businesses, film, design, music, etc. would be awesome to work in a place there

True amusing story.

One of things I had to know while studying for my dispatch exam is what does operational control mean? The answer is the authority to initiate, conduct, and terminate a flight. Simple right?

So I've gone over this probably 80+ times, in multiple ways for a couple of months. The date of the test is set about a month and a half out, and my teacher, George, brings Mari and myself in to start grilling us, making sure we know what we think we know and find any last trouble spots that we need to study on.

BOTH Mari and myself stumbled over the question, "What does it mean to have operational control of a flight?"

Apparently both of our answers were, "Guhhh... Gimmie a moment, I know this one!"

Oh man, that was so embarrassing, that's like the most basic of questions, he might as well have asked us what 2+2 was and have us not know!

my folio

At least you have one of those. I have a programming degree I've never used. Which, 4 years later, is another way of saying I've forgotten everything. And so I have about 2 months to find a job that can pay not only for myself, but for my worthless college debt. And I just found out my most promising job lead was filled 2 hours ago.

I like how my supervisor takes me seriously when I'm being facetious.

Learn a little .NET and fake it till you make it. Everyone else does.

One time I had three teeth drilled without novacaine because I didn't like needles... boy, my priorities were strange when I was a kid.

Had a dentist pull a tooth once, claiming that it was keeping the ones under it from growing in. Later, same dentist wants to scrape my gums so that same teeth can grow in. Tons of dentists do unnecessary shit like this. Haven't been to one since, probably won't go for at least another few years. I take much better care of my teeth now than when I was a kid, dental checkups are fairly useless.

I guess I'm really lucky. My dentist is so good that he once gave himself a root canal. It's going to suck having to look for someone of his caliber once he retires.
