I want to eaaat (this diet is so failing for real now)
...that is rather accurate. XD; (I love waking up at 10:00AM. Any later and it's a bit too late, and any earlier is a bit too early. AND I LOVE ME SOME PANCAKES.)

So I do have a lot to write about (it's almost been a week huh? Boy does time fly!) but uh it involves pictures, which are not online, except for a few, which are, but they're on facebook...
So the spamming of your friendslist with pictures I've taken of things I've done with people I like will have to wait till I am not at work. Alas.

So today while walking to work I realized that Toshi probably has the phrase "I love you baby" memorized in a million different languages. This amuses me to no end. I also noticed that I probably realized he knows this several years ago but still found it amusing. I mean it is! It's very amusing to here him scream out "I LOVE YOOOUUU BEEEEEBBAAAAAY!"

The interview for the position of secretary for the consulate general of Japan was yesterday. I think the worse part was me being stressed out over it since Sunday night. I am easily stressed, I admit it. I am like...Chicken Little. But I did leave work early, and I got all gussied up and looked very professional until the wind decided my hair looked better as a bird's nest. I was on-time but they were late. XD The test was interesting...I had to write a short essay on diversity and a cordial business letter from the consul to the governor letting them know he was coming to Seattle. Well I did my best since I am not trained in business letter writing. After that was an actual interview with three people.
It was the strangest interview of my life - and I've had all of maybe FIVE interviews mind you.
I was asked questions I never ever thought I would be asked. Such as "What do you think is the difference between people who work in the private sector and public services?"
I had no idea but I told them what I thought they could be since I have never thought about the difference between those WORDS before. Yeah. Those were the questions they asked me.
I gave honest answers so I can only hope that they accept those. I mean, I've never thought about half the stuff they asked me about, and the other half I have never done so I just did the best I could. Even if I don't get the job I learned from the interview and that's what matters right?
Once we finished up there, two other men explained the job benefits to me. They're not bad but they certainly aren't ideal...and they didn't have a sheet I could take home to ponder over.

In other news, Weija did not win the ticket lottery. (I KNEW I SHOULDN'T HAVE POSTED ABOUT IT HERE! I KNEW IT! BAD KARMA GOT US!) So I am...out of ideas. XD; I really don't want to go to auctions for tickets...
So I am sending letters to the Toshi ladies I met and hope they can give me ideas. (Such as "Sneak in!" or "Use your gaijin wiles to convince security you're a member of Yoshiki's staff!")
Here is hoping! Where there is a will, there is a way! (More like "Where you got a million bucks, there is a way.")
