My Brain Always Rejects Attitude Transplants

I've got a hunger, twisting my stomach into knots
That my tongue is tied off
my brain's repeating, "If you've got an impulse let it out"
But they never make it past my mouth

Our youth is fleeting, old age is just around the bend
I can't wait to go grey...
I'll sit and wonder, of every love that could've been
If i'd only thought of something charming to say...

This is the sound of settling...

For some odd reason, every time I'm in a meeting, I end up wishing I was Gambit (X-Men). I dunno why Gambit specifically, maybe it's cause I have my pencil in my hand and a strong desire to throw it at something, or perhaps someone. If I were Gambit, I could charge it up, throw it at the lights, and end the meeting early, yay!

Last week I had 3 hours of meetings in a row on Thursday, followed by 2 days in a row of Accordion Afternoons...

In other news, another one of the Prophecies of Link have come true! Byron encountered Mr. Dictionary on the weekend. I burst out laughing when Byron told me... nearly every white intern at the company has been caught by the guy now, always asking us to edit his dictionary. If Byron read my blog, he'd have been prepared for it!

Last last night I dreamt that I was looking for a washroom in Egypt, and eventually that my friend had a sarcophagus in his house. This apparently means that the friend I dreamt about is keeping secrets from me... I'm watching you! I can't remember what I dreamt last night, but it was even weirder.

I applied for 19 summer internships at 7 companies yesterday. Though to be fair, one company offered the same job 6 times (I suppose they need 6 people), so I applied to the same job 6 times ><.

And I already recieved a rejection letter from IBM's Extreme Blue program!! Hurray! Though I think it was an auto-mail from the US program, likely because I'd need sponsorship to work in the States, and they don't wanna do the paperwork.

If anyone has any suggestions for companies to apply for, anywhere in Canada, let me know... I got a few more companies to apply to, and if nothing, I'll probably consider alternate plans for the summer.

Weekend was extremely exciting, I went shopping, bought some clothes, souvenirs, and peanut butter. On Coming of Age Day I went to the archery tourney I read about, but nobody was there, so I went downtown, only saw a couple girls in kimono (which were pretty, but there weren't enough of em), so I went back home. Where I read 550 pages of Angels and Demons in one night. Keith lent it to me, I liked it better than Da Vinci Code. Though it felt like the author was plagiarizing his own material... the structure of both books was almost identical. Gonna go teach myself to snowboard hopefully this Saturday, then got the Killers concert on Monday.

I wish I was surfing right now...
