I Should’ve Known Better

Grad.

Ok, I had to rant. I just had to. Because it’s not over yet and I’m already annoyed. What am I talking about? Grad Apps.

For anyone in the penultimate year of uni, this is a very real, very horrible experience. It requires you to sound like a complete arrogant twit and spout great things about yourself which may or may not be complete exaggerations of the truth. Unfortunately, I was not born a liar. Or an embellisher. Pretty much, I tell it like it is. So it’s really hard to sit here and think of answers to the following questions:
- Describe your most memorable moment in the last 12 months
- Describe a big sacrifice you made to achieve a goal
- Describe a time you believe you inspired others
- Describe your favourite team environment and why
- Describe an opportunity you identified and took advantage of in the last 2 years
- Describe a time in the last 2 years when you pushed the boundaries to deliver outstanding results
- Describe a time in the last 2 years when you won others over to your way of thinking

Honestly! I don’t care if I work in a team environment or not, I’ll deal with it. And I’ll also do what it takes to get the job done. I don’t care if people think like me, as long as they’re doing a good job. And I’m hoping my most memorable moment will be clobbering my computer to bits in a fit of rage over answering another question about myself. Except that, if I have no job, then I can’t afford to buy a new computer. Shame really.

Yes, the pressure is getting to me. No, I don’t really care what this says about me. No, I don’t know what I want to do in the next week let alone the next three years. Really, I’d like to never have to study again in my lifetime.

*sigh*. I just want them over with so I can wait for the rejection e-mails to come in. I really gotta stop them getting to me.


Bloody bots.

Ok. I’m fairly sure bots have been doing weird things with the commenting feature of my site. I’ve deleted all the ones that advertise some odd website, but … there are these ones that are like “Well done admin, that’s really good”. What’s with that? I’ve left them though cos they’re somewhat amusing. If you’re reading my blog, it’s fairly obvious what my name is… so referring to me as admin isn’t exactly good is it? o_O How odd. Anyways, I must look into stopping bots from commenting, not sure how to do that. Bloody.

Wanted to add a few other things on here too:
- To Do List
- Wish list
- Movie list
- Few icons on the side

I think that’ll also make the right hand side look a bit more even compared to the left side, but that’s ok. As Manda pointed out to me a few days ago, the link on the calendar to go back is a bit borked. But I knew that already, I just haven’t worked out how to fix it :P

Pretty girl is suffering, while he confesses everything
Pretty soon she’ll figure out what his intentions were about
That’s what you get for falling again
You can never get ‘em out of your head

It’s the way
That he makes you feel
It’s the way
That he kisses you
It’s the way
That he makes you fall in love

She’s beautiful as usual with bruises on her ego and
Her killer instinct tells her to beware of evil men
And that’s what you get for falling again
You can never get ‘em out of your head
And that’s what you get for falling again
You can never get ‘em out of your head

It’s the way
That he makes you feel
It’s the way
That he kisses you
It’s the way
That he makes you fall in love
Love
