Sweetheart, tomorow is another day...

Dynamics make a group. Or should I say chemistry. People instinctively act different around one another pending on the group. It's like poker, where you combine various numbers to make a new set. Some sets are stronger than others. And if you are so lucky as to have a royal flush, which I believe is a combination of 1 girlfriend, 3 guyfriends and 1 girlfriend's friend that has a personality, then you're in luck.

And I thought yesterday was pretty close. It kind of made me understand why Laurier Business was moderately bareable. Although despite all the reminiscing, I also realized why I felt out of place. And its simply the combination. On an individual basis, or even in smaller groups, my comfort level increases. But once the crowd increases, I suddenly find myself in the need to please others, like I had to prove something to the entire group, but in reality, I should just be acting like myself. Does that even make sense? I also noticed that with others as well... going from encouraging to discouraging to possibly feel dominant within a group. Human nature I guess... that goes for almost everything wrong in the world these days.

Didn't even do much job hunting. Although I did get a contact name to an HR rep in the New York office. And a letter of recommendation from my ultra-kind manager.

Note to self:

1. Continue to be kind to others, because you'll never know what they'll become. Well, with the exception to overly obese people because stomach stapling should not be coming out of taxpayer dollars.

2. Shoot a video interview. Businessweek says it's becoming the new trend, and employers are more receptive towards it. I just need a make-up artist that will make me look older, or taller, hell, just paint me white...
