This is my third year, and I'm going to graduate next semester. I got offers for part time internship positions for the Spring semester at two think tanks / research institutes. One is at the Woodrow Wilson International Center f...

What to buy??? Originally, I was going to save it for textbooks next semester, but I figured that it was a prize, I won it, I should go and spend it on something cool. I can't really think of anything I need, and I've been browsing Amazon (electronics, food, etc) for a while but I can't decide. So it's up to TL. I have...

It's my first day at my new internship, and I want to make a good impression. I've been assigned the task of finding old 990 forms for ALEC (American Legislative Exchange Council). Old, meaning older than 2002 (I need to find the 2001 and older 990 forms). I've been googling for almost an hour and I can't find anything older than 2002. Anyone have experience searching fo...

I have really good night vision. I can see really well in the dark. The thing is, the daytime sun seems excessively bright to me. Now, I know that the sun is fucking bright, but it's brighter than it used to be. 2 years ago, I could look one way with the sun directly above that direction and see everything without having to use my hands to sha...

I was in a car, in the backseat, and the fingernail on my thumb came off and was hanging on by some skin on the left side of the nail. I held it up to look into it and it was gross. Then the nail was gone and there were some thin, sharp, metal pieces stuck in where the nail used to be. I pulled them out, they sorta looked like broken pieces from a razor blad...

I was planning to just write one huge blog post that explained my story from start to finish, but I didn't have enough time. Plus I figured it'd be easier for the readers to digest parts at a time. But even as I tried to write in such a tense that didn't reveal the ending and also showed the story's status (resolved...

Looking back, yeah I had no idea what I was doing. Maybe if I had posted this on TL when I first realized that this probably wasn't going to work, I would have followed everyone's advice here (which is to have sex, have fun, an...

I've had a girlfriend back in highschool before her, and I've read a ton of girl blogs here on TL, so I'm obviously a total ladies man - I know exactly what to say, exactly what to do in every imaginable situation, I get laid all the time, etc etc. Haha who am I kidding, I'm just an average-looking (maybe below average) nerd who play...

[Post-writing edit - Well okay, it's not just a rant, it's a story. A story of a struggle. My struggle. Read on if you have time.] I seem to write all my rants on TL don't I? You guys are like a family. An entity to whom I can speak of all my troubles without being known. It's weird because I don't actually know anyone on TL in real life (except 2 people but they don'...

I figured the blogs section has had enough with the girl-help/girl-fail/girl-ilikebutwontaskherout threads. So here's a girl success story. *bragbragbragblog Ever since I was little, I've always been that shy Asian kid sitting alone reading. I usually had two or three friends who I got along with, but I was never very extroverted. I started hanging out with more people duri...

We are in Washington DC, specifically American University. We've been in a relationship for a few days - we always hang out together; one day we were sitting together on a couch half-cuddling and I kissed her, she kissed back = relationship. But we haven't really...

Well, that's when I look at it logically. I see life as maximizing how content I am. It sounds really selfish right now, but bear with me as I explain it. I'll just call how content I am 'happiness'. Remember this. So how does one maximize happiness? 1. You can do what makes you happy. Guidelines and principles ingrained in your brain are wha...

So my parents have this old computer - windows xp, 512mb ram, old motherboard and pentium processor - but it suits what they do: just browsing the web, checking email, no need to run stuff like crysis or video editing software. So the cpu has been acting up lately. I checked the temperature and it goes to around 100 degrees C when doing stuff ...

I tried to think of terms that were as close as possible to my requests. So I've been looking for more of 3 types of music, and of course I turn to TL for help. Part 1 DJ Sharpnel - Blue Betrayal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTGUklv-o5E I came across this song via Stepmania and the ...

Leave if you can't handle it. So I just feel like writing some anecdotes about my gay roommate and his experiences with other guys. How do I know about these? No, he didn't tell me. I didn't read through his private messages on Facebook or his diary. I know about them becaus... Thu, 15 Apr 2010 11:34:53 +0900 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=119744 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=96154 ieatkids5 So I'm looking around to buy a laptop for college this fall, and I'm gonna be doing all the basic stuff on it, plus gaming too (SC2 of course). I found what I think is a pretty good deal - Dell Inspiron 15 Intel® Core™ 2 Duo P8600 (2.40GHz/1066Mhz FSB/3MB cache) Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium Service Pack 1 64 Bit Glossy, widescreen 15.6 inch display (1366x768) 4GB Shared Dual ...

I eat, browse TL, etc, then go take a nap at 4 pm. I nap till 12:01 am, so now it's Thursday. I figured that since my Georgetown and George Washington U apps are due on Saturday, I'd get them done. I end up procrastinating till around 4 am, and start writing my Georgetown essay. Get about 80% of that done ...

I now have a lot of gauze in my mouth and I can't feel much. I'm gonna have to take some pai...

I took English Literature (even though I didn't take a Literature class yet), World History (because I love it; took ap world in my sophomore year [I'm a junior now]), and Math II (because a lot of colleges want or need that one). Lit - 650 World - 790 Math - 800 Very happy with world and math scores, but hate my lit score hahaha. Oh well, i guess the two go...

Different viewpoints of it, pros, cons, ethics/moralality. I'm all for it, and that is the position I'm defending for the 7-page paper. I have experienced disease/struggles - almost unbearable. Call me weak, but I would rather have my life ended than live the remainder of it in misery, pain, suffering. The ...
