Ohio State

I applied to Ohio State in December and was accepted into the marketing program at the business school. Only a few people know I applied was accepted and then turned it down. When I tell my friends they almost freak out and all of them inevitably say "That's great but why didn't you go?" A lot of reasons went into my choice not to go right away.

I just finished Winter, March 17, quarter and submitted my transcript to OSU. I should find out mid April if I get accepted for a second time. This time around if I get accepted I will not turn it down and will become a full-time student starting fall of 2009.

What makes me nervous is I don't have a back up plan, fall back school or any thought of my not getting into OSU. I've been called dumb because of this. I choose to say not dumb but confident.

Too long....

More than two months have gone by since my last post. I knew it was a awhile since my last post but two months that's ridiculous. So much has happened, gone on and countless memories. Let me try to recap most of them. However, this post will be under all the posts that I will be blogging about. I guess when you read this you will have already read what has be going on.

I got the job......

I am now the newest manager at Lucky Brand Jeans. Looking back at my older blog about hinting at what job I was interview for and saying the picture was a hint is actually not that easy to decipher. When I posted the picture I was thinking "Oh a leprechaun's hat and when you see them they are always around a pot of gold and at the bottom of their pot of gold is a shamrock patch. Shamrocks are on Lucky's clothes." I know pretty complex, but that is how I think. 

Some of you may won't to know how I got the job while other could probably careless. For those you who don't care stop reading....... Okay still here? I came down the stairs one morning and two people were sleeping on our couches. One sat up and started to talk to me. I found out that we met on Halloween. Amber (the person who started talking to me) started asking how I was doing and what I had going on that day. My usual response followed by complaining about work and how I didn't want to go and it sucked being there.  The other person sat up and said Lucky was hiring for managers and I quickly asked how he knew. Tyler, the other person on the couch, said he was a manager there and they were hiring.  A few days passed and I went in to do a little Christmas shopping and he was there and I started talking to him and he asked me to apply.  I did and now I'm a manager there.

My coffee make quit working!

New job

I have finally hated work so much that I feel sick from the time I go in until I walk out of the door.  Every day I have to work I want to call in and tell them I'm sick or that I wrecked my car. I don't know how it has gone this far but it has. 

Managers have their heads stuck up their asses so far that they believe the stories they actually tell.  One of my managers makes up stories and she tells that story so much during the day she will believe it happened. I wonder how someone could be that far out of touch with reality. 

Not to take things lightly I have began to look for another job. I had a face to face interview a week or so ago. Shortly after I had a phone interview. I am still waiting to hear back from them.

Ohio State

I was accepted to OSU (Ohio State University)  and I turned down the acceptance. I can't believe I did, but I did. All, well most of my life I have wanted to go there and have made major sacrifices to position myself to be able to get in. My major is marketing and I was actually got into my major. 

I put the letter back into the envelope it came it and threw it to the foot of my bed. I look at it everyday before I leave.  Maybe I will go later on but not now I'm not ready. 

Northwestern Alumni

After reading someone's blog about a certain football game that was to occur this Saturday I was going to talk trash and blow my team up. However, I didn't think that would be a very good sport of me. Then as I was watching the game my team started to win. So I was going to blog then, but I decided not to. As to the game progressed I was absolutely disgusted at their performance. Instead of being a classy team that we should have been we decided to run the score up. An argument could be made that Tressel did not mean to score that one touch down, but he could have easily took a knee. Also before Pryor left the game he threw a long ball. Not sure if we scored then but still not a classy move when we were going to win. But a win is a win and National Title game is out of the question.
