my psych sections yesterday were very fun, primary school-ish but still fun. the first one was for my social psych class, and don't ask me what this has to do with social psych, but we played a game called 2 truths and a lie. basically you have to tell 3 stories, 2 of which are true and one is false, and everyone has to guess which is false. except to save time we only told 2 stories. then for my 2nd psych section for personality psych we had to act out a scene from survivor...and i was cast (very ironically for those of you who know me) as the person who didn't want to do anything but take a nap, ha...talk about out of character. but anyway, that was good.
went for the this job interview thing yesterday, and i must be the only person who's ever walked out of a job interview. ha...long story, but it goes this way. saw the job ad in a newspaper and they referred me to a website, the starting pay looked quite good, was $15.75/hour, or so i thought. so i checked up the website and there really wasn't that much info, just said it was for a marketing position, i decided to just check it up anyway, so i applied for the job. got a call yesterday asking if i could come in for an interview in the afternoon. so i said yes, had to get dressed up and all...the girl who called me said "the manager likes people to dress professionally" (turns out later that the girl i was speaking to was the manager). anyway, so i went there and there was a first round of interview, the manager said she'd like to call me back for a 2nd round but first there was this group thing i had to attend where she would tell me all about the company and my responsibilities. turns out if i took the job my duty would be to sell knives! which seriously isn't something i'm interested in doing. what's more, you have to buy a sample set to use in your demos that costs nearly $150...and they pay isn't $15.75/hour, it's per appointment you make. big scam right? and i had to sit through the whole talk coz the 2nd interview came after it. but anyway, i decided not to stay for the 2nd interview...walked out and went for dinner, a much more satisfying affair.
ha, checked out campus crusade last night. was a little too quiet for my liking. i'm spoilt by the noise you guys make! ha...k, got to run, supposed to meet my friend for breakfast.
