    It's a Mech Engineering job. It'd also be my first "real" job and interview. I'm not that sure about my chances, but we'll see lol

    It depends on the person. I have a problem with teleconferences when I'm just talking to a phone with a bunch of people on the other side. So I go to somebody else's office (assuming that they also have to attend the teleconference) and that way I have a visible audience. Plus, I'm more likely to pay attention then.

    "JJ is graduating from kindergarten today.I hope I don't blubber like a baby. Probably will..I teared up at the rehearsal."

    all I can say is WTF? do we as a society have to celebrate every minor occasion? all it does is minimize the importance of the major ones.

    Helen: I can't believe you don't want to go to your own son's graduation.
    Bob: It's not a graduation. He is moving from the 4th grade to the 5th grade.
    Helen: It's a ceremony!
    Bob: It's psychotic! They keep creating new ways to celebrate mediocrity, but if someone is genuinely exceptional...

    Watched 'days of future past' with just me and the Prof in the entire cinema. Quite a fun film, and it was good to just treat the place like we owned it, and I didn't find the 3D annoying, and thank the gods the World Cup has finally started.

    It's great to wake up in the morning and Brazil-Croatia is on TV. I'm looking forward to this routine for the next several weeks... the World Cup is the only time I watch the sport.

    So Last Movie you saw, TV/online/theatre/dvd doesn't matter.

    Me: Secretariat. The Belmont Stakes last weekend inspired me.
    Watched Avengers last night.

    So I recently received a tub of my favorite candy in the world, Laffy Taffy (sent by my friend who I won't mention by name but takes money and rhymes with RAMAZON) and I get mocked by everyone for having Laffy Taffy at my desk. They're just jealous.

    Anyway, what's your favorite candy?
