prospects.

So, today I got done with my second class only to find that the shuttle-bus that goes between campuses has disappeared. Since there were no other bewildered teachers I have to assume everyone knew but Grant and I. This after the repeated hilarious carpet-out-from-under-pullings regarding the final exams and random police being invited to wander through my apartment without warning, followed by a 2 hour meeting about how to get residence permits after i've had one for four months. I get the feeling that yakkity saks should be playing in the background 24/7 at this school, while everyone runs around at 2x speed bumping into and otherwise chasing one another.

All in all, Well played Peihua University. Well played.

In response, I'm asking very nicely for them to write up a letter of reccomendation for me now. maybe they will, maybe they won't, but it'll be a lot easier to start applying for real jobs back in America if they have one on hand. And if i can get them to give me a copy, well, then i really don't have to worry much about what peihua thinks of me anymore, do i?

Lexi was good enough to send me a copy of her resume, as it has a better format than mine and allows for me to fit more bullshit into a resume already rife with bullshit. Back at iD tech camps we played capture the flag and rousing games of "ignore the campers". I'm describing it as hardcore upside-down photoshop l33t h4x bootcamp, where everyone graduated by materializing into pure energy and now flies across the intarwub blogadome fighting viruses or somesuch thing. The pitzer writing center? Not a place for me to lie on a couch for 2 hours alone and then wander back to my room and get paid for it, nay. Everything i touched turned to HEMMINGWAY.

The only sticky bit is the references. Hopefully the school will help out here. If they do, my reward to them will be blowing off all future obligations. I figure i should throw in a pitzer prof who i haven't been in contact with for ages, because that's bound to end well.

If you'd like to be one of my job references, and have an important-sounding email address, please feel free to drop me a line. Not even kidding. Everything else on this thing is a load of poppycock and foolishness. I might as well round it out nicely with a reference from Cxavier@xavierinstitute.com or batman@wayneindustries.net.

What's the harm?
