[livejournal.com profile] bk635 - do you want to watch Firefly then go see Serenity at the Pacific Cinematheque on June 24th? They're screening it for charity and Joss Whedon's birthday. It'll give you a chance to see it on the big screen, instead of just on TV... and I'm hoping to go, but I want someone to go with. Plus I need to order tickets asap. You've got almost two weeks, so if you want to watch through the show soon then we could go (and it'd give you incentive to watch. ^_^)

Here's the info:

Anyway, think about it. You may not get another chance to see it in the theatre, so...

What would you say if you honestly never found yourself in such a situation? I've always wondered..

Hmm... well, it doesn't necessarily have to be something at work, esp if you don't have much work experience. Anything else that's happened that was stressful and where you had to react/problem solve under pressure would work. It's weird how I know this kind of thing has happened to me plenty of times, but I can't think of any specific examples... never mind examples where I actually handled it well without panicking. *sigh* Panicking under pressure is not what employers want to hear. ^^;

Tell her about one of those times where you pulled off an A on a major test, which you didn't study for, because you felt like doing a marathon through Angel or Farscape or something, instead.

Heh, yeah, that'd go over well. XD

Had the mock interview awhile ago; it went pretty well. It's kinda weird pretending you don't know your mom while she interviews you. ^^ I'm more confident now, though, I think, so hopefully the interview will go okay.

I've done absolutely nothing today.

Oh wait; I organized my favorites list. Oh how productive I am. Truly.

Heh, that's like me the last few days... but today I finally got off my ass and started organizing my room. It's a freaking war zone in here right now, but it's slowly getting more organized... putting some older stuff (ie. Sonic comics... heh) into boxes to make room for my DVDs and newer books in my bookcase and white cabinet... this is gonna take awhile. *sigh*

And hey, organizing favourites/computer folders/etc is one of my favourite ways of doing nothing important while still feeling productive. XD Great for procrastinating during exams.

Hahaha.. Cute little file naming systems and everything. :p

I need to do that too. But apart from my computer and my box of video games, I don't really have anything to get rid of..maybe a couple of board games or something that I threw in my closet when I moved in and never looked at again. My Mom wants to buy me a new set of furniture, even though I'm really indifferent about it. She has this obsessive need to upgrade my room (and my Dad's), even though she's never in it, so the house 'looks nice'. So who am I to argue? *shrug*
