PSA

Recently it has been brought to my attention that a few entries in here make me look less like a responsible 25 year old with a stable (*kow*) job and a Masters degrees from a good, expensive private university, and more like a fumbling idiot blonde. This is not the case.

But really though – don’t all the good stories worth sharing usually involve drinking? I mean, I can tell you about how I spent the day fussing with Photoshop and Illustrator because people seem to forget what my degree is ACTUALLY in, and just task me for everything. “Oh, I thought you were the graphics guru”. Um, sure – compared to you, but have I ever needed an .ico file? I think not. But who wants to hear about that?

So let’s just set this straight: In high school I was a good student - I drank then too. (Ahh, so ILLEGAL. Shut up!) I even took 2 math classes my sophomore year so I could take honors physics my junior year. And my toothpick bridge? It was 300% efficient – the best out all of the classes. So suck it you Ivy Leaguers!

I graduated a good university Magna Cum Laude. I even took out extra loans to take COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY summer classes so that I could earn a certificate in American Sign Language before I graduated in a year – a feat I was warned against doing; and no one had ever done before. But I did…just because I wanted to. A year later I got my Masters. I even got a 3.5 GPA. I started my job I have now two weeks later.

I'm a good employee. I work 40-50 hours a week. So I work hard…and I play hard moderately. But damnit, I am responsible enough for a single 25 year old; I'm just sharing the funny parts with you. And yup, drunk stories provide the best material. So don't judge, just enjoy the fruits of my drunken labor. :)

We now return to your regular programming…

Who the fuck cares what anyone thinks? I'm sorry, but I'm also 25 and the most interesting reads are just that-interesting.

The only times I've ever blogged about work it's been to make fun of people.
