havent been able to post much lately. i think of what to post, but then i get lazy.
work is pretty busy. my teams getting smaller and smaller by the month.
went on a road trip the other week. i really need to upload that shit. soo lazy.
thats all thats been going on so far. i should really grow my network in this blog. maybe ill start using tags.
so last week, i started off a new diet, but i didnt really stick with it.
most of my meals have stayed healthy, but the dinner meal was a little off. i had a few events and parties that took me off schedule, but i made sure i stuck with it as close as possible.
i checked for a weigh in and i saw that i didnt gain any weight so far so i think im doing pretty good. i gotta make sure that i keep most of the habits from the diet, and especially not exceed a certain amount of food per day. big thing is, its a lifestyle rite? just cant hop on a diet lose weight, and go back to eating shitty foods.
yesterday i went paintballing with some friends at paintballjungle. pretty fun day. really fun place to play. going here always brings me back to the first few times i started playing paintball. i remember i bought my gun at the field before even playing. but i knew id love the game.
they finally have an airball field set up. the field was cool, but i dont think its a 7 man field like they advertise. at most, its a 5man. the pace that we played at was perfect and im glad the turn around at this field is quick. thanks to all this dieting and training ive been doing, i wasn't dead tired at the end of the day. my feet are a little sore, but thats about it. i cant wait to play again.
so this was supposed to be part of the last post, but i ranted so much i made it another post... this rant might get a little emoish... oh well...
yeesh. my girl is hella annoyed at one of her officers who isnt doing
his job. amazing. 3 event coordinators, everyone of them is as
difficult as all hell. the first one never showed up to anything. he
was such a deadbeat it made me mad for her. the second one was too lazy
to do anything and she complained about every aspect of doing the job
she was eagerly applying for the semester before. and this new one,
well. what a special guy he is.
he doesnt understand what advertising is. doesnt understand what creating a buzz is. and just like his predecessors, he doesnt understand how to write a simple email and ask for professionals to come out as guest speakers.
the point of this "event coordinator" position is to fix up the club with a guest speaker for the meetings. thats it. the actual meeting itself kinda takes off from there. you buy some soda, write up a little agenda for the hour, the speaker speaks for 40-50 minutes in that hour, and you're done. the students grovel, brown-nose, and beg for internship positions at that point. its amusing really.
it sucks tho, my girl has been carrying the weight of this org for over a year. when i was in it, we had 12 officers doing the work, now she barely has half. most of the ones i was with graduated with me, and the rest moved on to other things. it frustrates me that these marketing students dont wanna get involved further than their academics. sure, they have work, we all work in college. no shit. alot of these students just join the club to have it on their resume. it sucks. and since the new promotions team never really promote, its even harder to get a turnout for the club. i really wish the professors get involved also. everyones just too busy i guess.
but then when i think about it... what else can this marketing club give to its students? thats the hardest part. besides guest speakers and interns, what can this club give to its students? what will make the students actually wanna come out? i used to talk about networking and meeting all sorts of people, but thats like a students biggest fear, especially at this school. no one wants to be put on the spot, introduce themselves to new people- and its always because of a lack of confidence, unfair prejudgment and judgement on the person's demeanor or looks.
a perfect example happened the other week while i was at different club meeting....
"the students here are so fake. i had a couple classes with that one
person, we worked together in a couple projects, and now she sits on
the other side and never talks to me."
"what about that girl? she was in your group too, why dont you talk to her?"
"her? eww shes wierd. she waved at me in the hallway but i acted like i didnt see"
i know i fell into this a few times. but its pretty sad that it happens. i often wonder what happens to these folks that get so wrapped up into themselves, they often forget the world they're in. only when they need something from u, is when they give u the time of day. and after that is done, they jump back into their own little world. i know so many people like this. i may be biased because im always the social butterfly, but jeez. wave hi. introduce yourself. take an initiative for once. these students are your potential rivals, competitors, coworkers, and possibly the ones that can make or break the decision of you getting that job or not.
the same fucks who ignored me, laughed at me, or chuckled at my work, are the same ones asking me if my company is hiring or if i know anyone who needs a 0 xp college grad. networking doesnt seem so bad at that point now doesnt it?
look at me rant. i just did a huge brain dump. i dont feel like reading this over, but i hope it does make sense.
keep in touch with your folks, make new friends, and network.
i dont wanna clean my place. i have clothes everywhere. and i need to tidy up. i dont feel like cleaning cuz my futon is still broken. im still waiting for the damn part to make my futon usable again. after that, ill feel confident in inviting people over. its been 3 weeks dammit. hella annoying. i should just buy some wood -- only problem is, i have to drill holes in it for the screws!
dood. im so fuckin lazy. i owe u a few cabo pics. this i know.
but.. im moving out of my apt. i have other shit on my mind.
but... im lazy to pack.
