Pheww
So, phew, another busy week after another long weekend had passed. It was all good.
After walking around in my monkey suit for days, often wearing it for the entire day, to classes drawing stares, and to interviews answering and asking questions, I finally got done with my 1st round interviews (all 8 of them) today. Some interviews went well, where the interviewers were just so nice and friendly, and the interviews went by just like an informal chat sessions, where I got to learn about their job and working environment. So, thanks a lot to all interviewers for making these interviews, and also for your time. Whatever the outcome is, I believed I learned a great deal from all these sessions.
So far, I have some good news to share, but it's kinda pre-mature for me to say anything yet. So, I'll keep u guys posted.
Listening to the State of the Union now, it's kinda weird for me to type this, but well, I can multitask pretty well.
Last Saturday, my buddy Dane turned 21, and on Friday night, we went to Ashley's, where I got a Cider sampler flight, a Great Divine IPA (Indian Pale Ale), and an Irish car bomb. It was amazing.
Anyway, so, it's been crazy with everything, companies coming in having information sessions, going to almost every one of them, eating pizzas for 3 or more nights a week, to the point that I can remember the smell of pizzas by just imagining them in my mind. So, no more pizza for weeks or months to come.
So, I've decided to move out of dorm, and moving in to apartment (Northwood III) next year. Seeing how I'll have more free time, and more freedom with staying in an apartment, I'll be doing more cooking(hopefully, I won't be tired of it comes the time I've to cook every day, or eat out).
Also, I've decided that I'll get a car for next year if I were to get an internship this summer. :) We'll see how that goes.
Also, I'm starting my series viewing, with currently 24, American Idol, CSI, CSI:NY and ... on the list, and more to be added to the list (Lost).
And, I'm working close to 20 hours a week, but I've been dropping one shift or two for my interviews and all, so, it's all good so far. Classes have been going, just that I'm considering, and still have 24 hours to do so, whether I want to pass/fail Econ 431 (Industrial Organization & Performance) so that I can afford to miss some late Thursday classes.
So, I'm all nervous right now, trying to learn more about table manners, and also, being comfortable with being myself. I'm just afraid that I would be too nervous in front of prospective employers/colleagues and making a fool of myself.
Moving on, I'm still searching for a topic (more like searching more articles to confirm my topic) for my Econ 495 proposal. I'm looking at the social program of training inmates to help them re-entering the society. Either that, or I'll be evaluating the program of bringing health insurance to the poor. Pretty interesting...
Well, i'm getting a blog diarrhea, better stop here...
also, I'm attaching 'my' cheesy tuna noodle casserole' recipe:
Microwave the frozen mixed vegetables. Cook and drain the noodles separately. Heat soup, milk, and sour cream. Blend until smooth. Mix all ingredients together with tuna(make sure the tuna is well-flaked and 3/4 cups each of Cheddar and Mozzarella cheese. Pour into a baking pan. Top with remaining cheese and bake in 350 degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes.
(I googled this. And did some modifications to it. Add some hot pepper if you like it to be spicy.)
Enjoy!!!

Lolz..
Congratulations on getting through 8 interviews! Very nice how these companies come to campus unlike me having to go to London every other week..
State of the Union.. Bah..
Tut tut.. And all that alcohol..
And you are soooo cooking when you get here.. Let me know what you need so I can purchase in advance..
Table manner always a bitch.. Remember, always sit from the RIGHT, start using your cutlery from the outwards to the inwards, scoop soup and dessert AWAY from you, elbows ALWAYS by your side, NEVER jig your arm - even when using a knife, do NOT bend forward even if it is to grab food from the dish in front of you, fork and knife face UPWARDS; fork LEFT; knife RIGHT and TOGETHER when you're done with the meal to complement the chef, and sit up straight.. Don't forget to stick your left leg in and out while you're at it..
And you managed to spell learnt wrongly again..
