  1. hung out with a friend of mine in my graduate program who has one of the most distinct personalities i've ever come across.

    She is PhD track in engineering, a hugely technical and 90% male dominated field. This chick somehow found her way into it, no clue how. None of her colleagues can stand her and she appears to be pretty much clueless when it comes to technical aspects of research. However I'm positive she will be very successful.

    She's a cute girl with a bubbly sorority girl disposition and an absolutely shameless networker and name dropper. Older guys in the field, like bosses and big decision makers, always want a piece of her but her peers want nothing to do with her. It pisses me off too but i have to admit, when I'm around her i'm taking mental notes!

  2. "Interviewing" for a part time job tomorrow. Don't even need the money, hoping it will allow me to practice my hobbies and expand my social circle. Fingers crossed it will come out that way.. need this~~!

  3. Buddy doing geology grad work at Texas A&M just admitted he's done a complete 180 is the past few months. Back when I lived with him he was very idealist, scientific, oil companies "rape the earth" kind of guy. Now he is chasing 6 figure salaries for BP. that kind of work is right down my alley... might could see myself doing it too.

  4. what's the deal with this guy and why do people seem to know/care about him? checked a few of his youtube vids and can't say i'm disappointed he's dead.

    He was an Australian amateur body builder, but what really made him 'internet famous' was his bizarre self absorbed/ego driven web presence. He inspired thousands of nerds to log off WoW and pick up some weights, which is good.
