I went to Boston over the weekend for a business convention. I learned a lot about different ways Market American can allow people the freedom and tools necessary to create a business. Market America is the biggest online shopping destination. I urge you to go on you.marketamerica.com if you want to shop online. They offer deals, 2 percent cash back and .5 percent cash back on referrals! No other site offers .5 percent back on referrals, so if you want an opportunity to earn money while shopping this is the place for you! Just sign up on the site and let me know if you want to learn more about this business.

Choosing a class schedule was hectic. I had to run to the library and grab a computer and wait 15 minutes, while everyone else was registering for classes I wanted. I actually stared at a kid as he took the last seat of the psychology class I wanted. Everything got messed up and I had to look for new classes. I HAVE CLASS ON FRIDAY T_T.

I just want to share that the staff at writing center is pretty helpful. The person I worked with strengthed my outline for me.

And as Professor Hohl said, the staff sends the corresponding professor an email to tell the prof that you visited. The good side is, the staff is very nice so they usually puts in a good word about you in the email.

I attended the workshop on November 19. Recruiters from Verizon came to present their advice for job fair. Most of their advice ie. good timing, dress code, politeness, interview goals,  are things that we know at the back of our heads, but it’ helpful that they reviewed them.

As a speech pathologist, I often ask patients to tell me a personal story in order to get them to open up. Here’s one man’s tale:

　　”My friend wanted a boat more than anything. His wife kept refusing, but he bought one anyway. ‘I’ll tell you what,’ he told her. ‘In the spirit of compromise, why don’t you name the boat?’ Being a good sport, she accepted. And when her husband went to the dock for his maiden voyage, this is the name he saw painted on the side: For Sale.

anybody know how long the research papers supposed to be?

On Friday I went to the hospital 3 avenues away from Baruch where I had to help pack Christmas cards into envelopes with help from 15 other Baruch students. It was a very easy task and the hospital was very big so it was okay. Now i don’t have to do Wook’s project so I guess that’s good.

I took a very brief test ( 70 something short yes/no questions) and i answered as best as i can. The results came out and I thought it was very realistic and the website gives you descriptions and a  few careers that are the best for your specific personality.

Today, I went to a resume writing workshop. I remembered to take my resume with me, and when the presenter was talking about how we should write the resume, I was taking notes on an extra copy of my resume. The information given about how to format and write the resume was different from the format that I used, but overall there was no major differences. We learned that there was something called a Major G.P.A as opposed to an Overall G.P.A. Also, the presenter told us that we did not have to put a major on our resume.
