Opportunity Abounds

It's ironic that now that my future degree is starting to work for me I'm being the biggest slack ass bastard where school is concerned. Isn't it?

I'm doing everything last minute, putting in the bare minimum effort, and yet somehow, I'm doing fairly well (nothing major has been due yet) and, I keep getting interesting opportunities based, primarily, on the fact that I am getting an advanced degree.

I had an interview last week that I chose to cancel because I wasn't feeling very well and basically had no interest in the job itself.

This Friday I have a phone interview with a company that looks promising, but again, we'll see. This particular company is fairly new (est. 1999) and they are expanding rapidly. The phone interview is more to see if my future direction coincides with theirs, and I did get a referral from a good friend, but the point here is that 6 months ago, before I took on the overwhelming task of getting a dual master's, I didn't have these opportunities.

For better or for worse.

And that's what should make me even more motivated to do well in school, right?

But no ... It doesn't. I have something due tonight that I haven't even started - and it's not just something I can regurgitate. It really should have been planned out because I don't know how I can fake a "negotiation".

Oh well.

Hope you all are doing well.
