I have come to the conclusion that career services and services like Monster.com are just a waste of time. I’ve gotten a lot of potential employers who are impressed with my resume, it’s just a shame that the job in no way suits me or even fits me. Let alone the fact that I’m not […]

My X dvds that is. You may recall me mentioning that I was trying to sell them cheap but through private sale instead of using a third party party, right? Well, alas they still haven’t sold. I had one buyer that fell through and no luck since then.
Now see, the reason I wanted to avoid […]

You’ll be amazed what you’ll find on Youtube sometimes. For example, did you know that Kettering University has webisodes on their website for you to watch? I probably wouldn’t have believed it either, if I didn’t see it with my own eyes anyway. Sometimes it’s hard to believe that the people in those stuffy University […]

Once upon a time I used to post all of my completed papers, essays, and reports on my website. My purpose was simple, perhaps my papers could provide a guideline for a student left in the dark with an unclear and ambiguous syllabus, or they could perhaps even yield more possible reference sources for a […]

I just got finished proof reading a friend’s paper and while the paper is exceptionally well written I couldn’t help but to raise an eyebrow at her sources. Here she is, a senior in college and all of her paper’s sources, sans one (her textbook) were from Wikipedia. *head hits desk*
Now, I’m not saying that […]

A pity this contest wasn’t held while I was still in school. I would have made great use of the funds!
Proctor and Gamble along with daytime television series, As The World Turns and Guiding Light, have apparently teamed up together to offer this rather fantastic, and easy to enter, prize. To enter, all […]

…but my mother is! www.CostCaptain.com is a website that only recently came to my attention, and sadly it was after I had already graduated. CC.com is a Microsoft authorized education reseller and what this means is they sell brand new Office 2007 and Vista to students (public, private or home schooled) as well as […]

Today is the twentieth which means that today is the day that everyone’s final class grades are posted online and can be accessed through their student account.
I didn’t want to get up today, went to bed around 6am, and I just wanted to stay in my nice warm bed a bit longer, but then I […]

I am no longer a “candidate for a degree” in Criminal Justice, rather I am now an official Alumni of New Mexico State University. We had our graduation ceremony today. The graduates had to line up outside, in the freaking cold, but I’m sure it was well worth it for our families to see us […]

I fought my mom, but my mom won. What does this mean, you ask? It means tomorrow I shall be waking my ass up early in order to be dressed (semi-fancy to boot) and up at the Pan American center by 9am.
Yes folks, that means Joana is participating in the graduation ceremony. I really […]
