Soon to be WORKING GIRL

Sunday? Already? What the heck have I been doing?? (not getting a job, that's for sure.) Apparently it's Day 5 and I spent a few hours in Borders huddled in a corner surrounded by stacks of GMAT prep books and how-to-find-a-job bibles. I ended up purchasing quite a thick Kaplan GMAT prep book and a cute lil hardcover called "The Amazing Adventures of Working Girl". (And yes, this is how I plan to find a job.) The GMAT book scares me a bit though...I opened it to a random page while sitting in Borders and came across the equation shown below. Now mind you, I have haven't taken a math class since first semester of senior year of high school; basically 5 years ago. I don't even know how to begin figuring this bugger out. Merde. I'm terrified...On a brighter note, tonight I'm going to see Wicked with V at the Orpheum Theatre...sooo excited! I've heard about Wicked for about 3 years now, non-stop. And of course, I'm too lazy to buy my own tickets to go see it (so thanks dear V for taking me with you!!) But it should be a blast!

Yesterday, I walked myself down to Fisherman's Wharf, where I have actually NEVER been, and sat in the sun for a bit looking out at the ocean. It was sooo hot, yet so windy and terribly crowded, so I didn't stay for long.

On my way home, I found a candy store (score!!) full of barrels of salt water taffy! I was quite overcome with joy hahah I picked up a few different pieces to give to A as a bday treat later that evening. Luckily, this candy store happened to be about a block away from "Steps", so I stopped by to greet my new found friends, and at the same time, made another new friend (another notch on my friend-o-meter)! Then after 30 min I left to Berkeley, yet again, to celebrate A's bday at a Mexican restaurant in Alameda called La Pinata. Food was soooo good btw!! And the servers were awesome when they all assembled around our table and sang a very LOUD happy birthday to A! I headed back to the city after dinner and made a quick stop at the Sir Francis Drake Hotel to say hello to a visiting friend, which turned out to be a hilarious nightcap for the evning.

So overall, my days here have been great! This week is definite find-a-job-or-else-I'm-screwed week since my friends are busy with school and work. Time to go read my newly acquired working girl bible...
