01/31/2010: Still living and working in San Diego, although these days I'm just trying to keep my head above water.

11/08/2009: I live in San Diego, I have a full-time job (I'm one of the lucky ones), and I'm trying to find a way to make the world a better place... whilst sitting in front of a computer 10+ hours a day, playing secretary to a Republican boss.

Summertime and the living's... Wednesday, July 1, 2009 | | click to comment

Well, it's something. I epically failed at updating this blog during the last school year, in which I spent one quarter in normal mode, one quarter studying harder than ever before (Dean's Honors, what?!), and one quarter... campaigning for Gavin Newsom and avoiding real responsibility.

So this summer I said goodbye to IV and moved into a new house in Santa Barbara with four new housemates. I'm a big girl now, but I miss the gentle insanity that is summer in Isla Vista, and I miss living with three of my best friends.

Right now I'm an intern at the Venture Acceleration Initiative at UCSB and I'm hoping to get a part-time job elsewhere as well. In addition, I'm working on my Italian in hopes of passing a test at the end of the summer which will bring closure to my college career.

At summer's end, I'm hoping to move to somewhere in the San Francisco bay area, where there are many more potential people to hire me than here in Santa Barbara. If you happen to be one of those people, I will send you my resume and references at the drop of a hat. (Your hat, not mine. I can't wear hats; my head is too small.)

That's all for now, folks. Hopefully my housemates will stop cooking bacon all the time. As a relatively new vegetarian (or pescatarian, as some insist), the deliciously fatty smell makes my mouth water.
