So, I'm studying for the GRE, if I'm able to keep my current job or at least stay within the parent company. I came across some words in my vocabulary list and they can totally be applied towards us!


I'm making them into a sentence and I will let you all look them up! ;-)


Instead of being penurious in our spending, we are impecunious because of our inability to be ascetics.


=) Hope you all enjoyed that!!


I have also made the decision to pursue my freelance career (PT for now) while I have some down time in my job. It's going to take some work and funding, of course, (at least I can report any expenses for my taxes!) but I am confident that this is the direction I'm going long-term. Unless a magazine scoops me up and lets me pursue my dreams. But, I think I'd rather be my own boss in this lifetime. It's better than working at Borders and I won't be squandering my money on Borders merchandise!!


I'm excited and feel a real purpose and drive in this.


I can do ANYTHING I set my mind to! (per my Mom)

I would be really tempted to work in book stores, craft stores, bead stores, pet stores but it would be too dangerous. My sister has been working part time demo'ing dog food, but she spends too much at those stores.

I am so glad to hear you mention Borders - I do Corporate Sales at one.
