<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Ah, the wonders of the "non-thesis" track. All the status of a regular Master's degree, 10% of the hassle. And probably twice (at least) the beer, since I didn't have to worry about doing a load of readings for my thesis (duh!). Of course, there's always that awkward moment when someone asks me what I did my thesis on....Like when it came up in a job interview. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/frown.gif">------------------

What's the point of caffeine-free Mountain Dew? Mountain Dew exists solely for the purpose of getting wired to the eyeballs, not for the taste. If you want a caffeine-free lemon-lime soda that actually tastes good, go with 7-Up or Sprite or something.------------------
"Truth hides on the other side of a two-way mirror
In countless documents sent straight to the shredder
That might finally give us the whole of the picture
But until the day we decide to dig a little deeper
We know that truth will hide
Under fallen rocks and stones
At the end of a disconnected phone
Down an unmarked street
And buried, deep beneath your feet."
- Asian Dub Foundation, "Truth Hides" from Community Music

 ouch.that's gotta hoit. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/eek.gif ... OTE>You know it, brother. There's not really anywhere to go, after that. Not one of my more successful interviews, I must say, although not my worst.The absolute worst was the one in which the very first question was whether I had any experience in urban design (I'm a county planner), and I had to answer "No."Small aside and tip to those of you who have never gone on a real job interview: Any time you answer "No" to the first question in an interview and that question was not along the lines of "Are you a child molester/mass murderer/kleptomaniac?" is bad. Very bad.So anyway, the interview went downhill from there, at a breakneck and carreening pace. It was the only interview I ever went on in which I was back in my car and driving home within an hour of the time it started. Also another bad sign.I completely blame them, however, because nowhere in the ad I responded to was there any mention that urban design experience was necessary, nor was there any indication that I had such experience on my resume. Which I presume they read before contacting me. I would have been much angrier had I driven the six hours for that interview alone. Luckily I had another one in another part of the state, so it wasn't a complete waste of time. Of course, I didn't get that job either, but that's another story.Ugh. Sorry for the long and pointless story. I have lots of interview-failure stories and could take up lots and lots of space with them, given the chance. Please don't give me that chance. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif">------------------

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>I don't suppose it's very difficult to get hit on at a jewish frat at a technical school. ^^;; Ah, but the houseboy is one of my best friends from high school. ^_^This is why I love taking a semester off school! It's work and party, with no stress of having to turn in papers! And I get paid to do work, instead of paying to do work! And I'm going to graduate next year, having paid my way through, without any debt!I've considered graduate school... but I'm not really sure what it would do for me. I think I might go for my MFA in creative writing, but I'm also eager to get on with life and not linger in the quasi-world of academia.------------------
