Stressful Gallivants

Hello! Let's just pretend that I didn't completely forget about the existence of this blog, leaving an incredibly emo post about nothing at all on my front page for more than a month. Right, buddy? Right! :)
Soooo here are some numbers which describe the past seven days:
  • I took 8 flights, which involved killing a lot of time in 7 different airports.
  • I had 3 interviews and talked to a total of 10 interviewers.
  • I read 5 books, and loved none of them (sadcat)
  • I saw 1 female octopus!
  • I ate many slices of Hawaiian pizza (sans meat) for the first time.
  • I got to read the in-flight travel magazine for 2 different months, which gave me an unparalleled opportunity to explore my dream of becoming one of those travel writers who get paid to go on vacations and produce badly-written articles called things like "Three Perfect Days in Paris!" or "Don't You Wish You Were Going to Tahiti Instead of Newark, New Jersey?"
  • I got 2 free folders, 1 free pen, and 1 entire pad of paper!
  • And I took complete advantage of my 1 free breakfast at my hotel.
So basically, college interview trips can be kind of awesome, even though the interviews themselves suck. Also I love fish a lot, and kind of wish I were an octopus.
