White and Nerdy
Ok, so I’m a big geek. Anyone that has met me, heard of me or possibly just seen a picture of me will know this.
My most excellent brother provided me with a ‘White & Nerdy’ hoodie from the music video of Weird Al‘s new song “White and Nerdy”. Awesome. So very awesome.
Anyway, along that line, I also had a phone interview with Microsoft today. I’m hoping to get a job with them after my exchange finishes, although I don’t know what kind of chances I have. I think I did pretty well at the phone interview, the next step ought to be an in person interview sometime in a couple of weeks. I’ve been pimping myself and my resume out to pretty much everyone I can think of over this quarter trying to get myself and internship or a full time job after the quarter ends. I’ve had some good communication with a few places, but the Microsoft thing is the only one that’s progressed to the interview thing so far. I dunno, we’ll see I guess.
I wore my hoodie out to the last anime club screening here at the UW, and when we all went out to Yunnie’s for bubble tea afterwards and people could actually see what I was wearing, just about everyone there at some point commented on how awesome my hoodie was. Highly appropriate venue.
Also, when Joe and I went to have dinner at this burger joint across the bridge, one of the waitresses on the way out stopped me and was gushing over how awesome my hoodie was. I felt paradoxically extremely nerdy and extremely cool at the same time.
Anyway, I’m a big geek and I love it.
School continues to be an awful lot of work, but I’m somehow managing to get by.
