The Interview Process

How I feel walking into interviews: 

Interview questions and answers... c'mon, we all know what they are:

Though really, this goes through your head every time you try to come up with a creative and interesting answer that sets you apart from the crowd: 

Right after the interview if it went well: 

The next day as you replay all of your answers in your head: 

A few later, waiting for a call-back: 

Inside your head when you get offered the job: 

How you try to appear on the outside: 

Telling your friends you got the job: 

International Women's Day

“Let me tell you what I think of bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. It gives women a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel…the picture of free, untrammelled womanhood.” - Susan B. Anthony

Lazy rainy Vancouver days... so I think of cuddly cats instead.

Am I the only one who finds this hysterically funny?

Dark Roast

Had coffee this morning. It was dark roast and I didn't have enough milk to make it a latte so I just added more brown sugar to combat the bitterness of the coffee because, honestly, I don't even like the taste of coffee (probably why I've never had the addiction factor to it) and then I got really wired and wanted to Get Shit Done but it's very distracting to be that wired and I generally end up doing nothing at all because being wired just makes me sit down and daydream.

I really feel I would be one of those people who would fail anyway despite staying up all night the night before on speed cramming for an exam.

I have no idea where these thoughts come from.

Care

Sometimes I worry that this is what Vancouver will slowly turn me into.  

I don't understand the reasoning behind people acting this way and I certainly don't understand why it is that Vancouver should have so many of these kinds of people around, maybe more so than other places? Is it the weather? The lack of snow? The cross section of people who decide to move here? The gap between those who have and those who have not? I didn't think it was so different a place than anywhere else but then again I don't really look too closely into those sorts of things because they never used to have that much of an effect on my life. 

I don't know when that changed and maybe that's what scares me more.

The World According to Mr. Rogers

Important things to remember:

“Part of the problem with the word 'disabilities' is that it immediately suggests an inability to see or hear or walk or do other things that many of us take for granted. But what of people who can't feel? Or talk about their feelings? Or manage their feelings in constructive ways? What of people who aren't able to form close and strong relationships? And people who cannot find fulfillment in their lives, or those who have lost hope, who live in disappointment and bitterness and find in life no joy, no love? These, it seems to me, are the real disabilities.”

Fair enough.

Solo...

This entertains me and I don't know why... :)
