Toothbrushes
There are way to many toothbrushes to choose from, and they're way to expensive -- even at Wal-mart and especially for an indecisive, poor college student.

DST
My sleep schedule all messed up from Daylight Savings Time. I had forgotten about setting the clock ahead one hour Saturday night. I was up pretty late to begin with, since I layed in front of the TV at 1:00 am or so. I started dozing off, so I went to shut off my computer and saw that the time said 3-something, and wondered how it got so late. Maybe I fell asleep for a while? No, when I got in bed, the alarm clock said 2-something. My computer clock must have gotten messed up. I was pretty tired at this point and didn't think too much about it. I ended up waking at what I though was 11:30, but when I turned my computer on and saw the clock was at 12:30 I remembered. Forgot about losing an hour. Then last night I was up until after 3 and now it's after 1 and I'm not all that tired.

Domain Birthday
My domain, philmakara.com is two years old today. I also recently transferred to a new, cheaper registrar -- $7 for a year.

Foolish Driver
Today on the way to school, the red lights started flashing at a railroad crossing and the driver two cars in front of me decided to stop his shiny silver Civic right underneath the bar that drops down to block the road. And so the bar went down until it hit this car right in the middle of the hood. They then decide to back up, probably scratching the hood in doing so. We can only hope. Stupid drivers.

Happy Easter
Happy Easter, everybody! Spending it at home in Wilkes-Barre. Heading out tonight, though. I'm disappointed; Google doesn't have a special Easter logo.

$20
I just found $20. Would it be wrong to just pocket it? There was nobody in the viscinity when I saw it there all lonely in the middle of the hallway. I felt obligated to pick it up and deposit it in my pocket. I could use the extra cash. And it lifted my spirits slightly, after hearing that Agilent doesn't want me, either. Man, I'm not taking job-related rejection well.

Agilent
Agilent wants me afterall. I originally applied to two positions at Agilent, both with the same title. The automated email I received that said the position was filled, was for the other position, not the one I initially intervied for. So during my interview today with Price Waterhouse Coopers, at which the position requires 80-100% travel (blah!), I received a message from Agilent, and ended up having a phone interview with them at 3:00.
Two 45 to 50 minute interviews in one day is mentally exhausting, especially on top of everything else that's going on. Why do all the job opportunities come at once? Why can't they be spread out over a few weeks? Why not earlier? I shouldn't be complaining, though. I've got a lot going for me right now.

Mohawks
I got back from my run just in time for it to start raining. The wind out there is wicked! Perfect timing.
Did I miss the memo that mohawks are back in style? I saw at least four kids on campus today sporting mohawks. And these are not to be confused with the recent faux hawk fad.
And now to make dinner. I'm hungry. Here's to a good week!

Maryland
I'm heading down to Maryland this weekend to visit a prospective employer and scout out some apartments around the area. I have a feeling that I'm really going to like the area. I already do by it's geographical location and proximity to DC, Philly, NYC, and the beach. And it's not TOO far from W-B either.
