 Various events have been drawing me into Southern nationalism against my will. Although languish may not believe me, I really don't want to think about it. But here I am with the sun coming up, and i'm writing angry essays denouncing Emerson..

  Anger doesn't suit me, and I look forward to returning to easygoing non-involvement in political affairs.

So when are you going to make the move to Japan permanent?
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

 It should be summer/fall 2013. I graduate in the spring, and my hands are tied until then. I have that long to study the language further and enjoy the things in Tennessee that aren't available there.

Why the fuck are you looking at Canadian Rail!?!?!

Vacation planning.  280-ish for Montreal to Quebec City?  Robbery.

How many miles/km is that?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Don't you remember when Zoups and GF were trying to trick me with that as well?

It seems I've ended up with a girlfriend.
It was a bit of a goal and she isn't bad but a bit short and...yeah...what about that really busty, bonny girl I had my eye on? What about all the other girls? Adult times almost on tap is nice but....
Its not like I'd ever get anywhere with any other girls. But still I worry. Change is bad.

Maybe on another forum she's posting similar sentiments ?

Well, this is something I've never seen before.  Some guy in my building has apparently spammed every apartment (about 500 of them) with his cover letter and resume for a financial services position.  He sure is enterprising, at least.

What is your assessment of his resume/CV.

I don't know, it sounds like an investment banking resume.  I don't know what's impressive and what isn't for those.  He has a computer engineering undergraduate degree, and masters in finance, which is a sweet combination for actuarial jobs.  If you can handle analytics, and can program them efficiently, that's golden where I work.

Do a Google+Facebook+LinkedIn search and see if he was enterprising enough to scrub his virtual identity.

I seriously didn't know it was 200 & fucking 80 $. That's crazy. I went to Toronto for 25$!

To Toronto on Via for $25? You must have seduced the ticket agent with your charm. Whenver I take the train to Montreal it's in the mid 200s.

Well it actually isn't anything like that for me. Just looked again to confirm but it'd be $65.
