The days seem shorter as I close out my time at the UC Washington Center. My formal internship is coming to an end and even though I’m coming back to Washington in a week, I feel as if the era has ended as well. Regardless, I have lots of good interview scheduled this week before [...]
Our time in Washington is definitely starting to wind down, which is why I was very happy with how our last weekend as a group in Washington went. With another Job interview on Friday, another one added to my list, and Katie in town, there was a lot to be excited about. On Friday, I [...]
This morning, I had a job interview with a media relations/research/strategy firm called CommunicationWorks and I feel that the interview went really, really well. Their focus is education policy so that’s where most of their clients come from, but we talked about a lot of good stuff that I could perhaps bring to the company, [...]
Last week was pretty incredible the more I look back upon it. There was the Foo Fighters concert last Tuesday. I went to a Braves-Nationals baseball game (and the Braves won, who’d a thunk it?) and of course, there was that trip to New York. New York was pretty awesome. I had never been before [...]
I’m pretty damn excited for tonight, I’m seeing the Foo Fighters do an acoustic set at the Daughters of the American Revolution Hall, across the street from the White House. Last time I saw the Foo Fighters was a great time in Oakland, California when I saw them do the last “Foozer” (Weezer + Foo [...]
My time in Washington at this point is limited and job prospects are mixed. I received half a dozen job e-mails today that I need to pursue. I’m taking multiple angles at this problem and I’m no longer exclusively focused on Washington. I’ve expanded my search to Los Angeles and to an incy-wincy degree, San [...]
It’s been a while, once again. I’m trying to think of new ways to get myself interested again, which has proven quite dificult. Over the past week, my family has been in town. In that time, I’ve joined them for the White House and Pentagon tours along with a visit to the American Art Museum [...]
I highly encourage you to pick up “Teenage Graffiti” by The Pink Spiders today. It’s friggen’ amazing (at least I love it). At least give it a listen if you aren’t sure.
This weekend was destined to be the beginning of something really awesome. Charlie is in town with his parents since his dad is reading grants for the Department of Education. It’s been really awesome having here for the few days thus far. He arrived Saturday night and it has been a blast from there. Saturday [...]
