Dear Mr. Luu
I got an email from a college student today tryin’ to get an internship at WB. Hella brings me back to my days of hustlin’ for internships 24/7. Specifically, my “Dear Ms. Lau” email to a recruitment coordinator at WB (my position now).

Simple Things
When your phone is about to die when you’re not home but your friend has the charger for it.
When a girl insists on buying the first round or puts up a legit fight for the bill at dinner.
When the salesperson actually goes to the back to check their inventory.

Rules for Surviving Vegas - The Art Perfected
Bed Sheets make for an excellent source of privacy for those in the shower as people get ready. Gone are those days of lonely showers or embarrassing glances in the mirror to sneak a peek.
Trash bags = one trip to the ice machine for the boys. This has allowed us to decrease the horizontal plane of the bathtub significantly while increasing the vertical plane. Forgot the trash bags? No...
I've Made it.
One of the candidates that I called for an interview viewed my profile on LinkedIn.
I used to do the same thing. Though, I would always sign out first. Hope they don’t see this, but if they do a good job at googling me, they will. Shout out to you.
Be the kind of person you'd wanna meet..

WHAT IS THAT???????
Cut.
Excited to go home for thanksgiving! Been waiting for this for too long.
I love my job. I am very blessed and fortunate. #dowork
Umbrella
Today I was meeting with my new team, for my next rotation. I was running later than I would like and could not find the building. As the elevator doors open, the person in front of me leaves first and is a few steps a head of me as I search for my building. It’s raining. She turns around and asks, “Do you want to share my umbrella with me?” and proceeds to wait for me to catch...

I love food because of the company I get to share it with.

Cheers
To a good life post-grad.
To the homies that came to support me at my first 1/2 marathon.
To good food with good friends all weekend long.
Cheers.
don't dress for the job you want, WORK for it.
Advice, from me. Do with it as you wish:
(1) It’s going to be hard at first, but learn to trust yourself. Starting off as the “new guy” I always felt like I didn’t know as much as everybody else so my input wasn’t as valuable. Honestly, it’s was probably true for a few weeks as I learned the ins and outs of what my department does. Eventually, though, I learned...
Ranch 99
Realized that my Vietnamese isn’t good enough to order meat from the butcher, but it’s good enough to understand the cashier talking smack about the fat lady in front of me (her words, not mine).
Too honest to be modest.
Booked
I booked 3 flights this week. December will be a great month.
Just Putting it out There
Don’t drink and drive.
When I’m not busy at work, I’ll help them file employment applications. I’ve literally seen hundreds of applications. I’m at the point where every application/resume is just a blur, but every now and then, I’ll stop at an application.
Why? Because they’ve been convicted of a felony. Explanation? Driving under the influence. Going...
I have over 3600 tagged pictures of me on my Facebook. One day when I’m famous, these pictures will be sold on TMZ and all my friends will be rich too. No, but really, please don’t.

Hello.
I woke up at 7:30a this morning, Saturday. Went back to sleep until 7:55a, wide awake. How life has changed. My extra hours staying up until 3am in college have been moved to extra hours waking up early at 7am post grad.
Goodbye.

I think I stopped watching Jersey Shores. On TV at least.
Get to the Point
Goal: Never get to the point where when people ask me how’s work, I respond with, “It’s ok, I’m used to it.”
Ghost Ridin' at Work
I came back from lunch yesterday and the black spider thing filled with candy and glow sticks was left at my desk. In short: it’s a chain letter-ish kinda thing and once you get one, you create your own goodie bag for two other people and pass it on until everybody has a “ghost” next to their name tag (included in the goodie bag). Seriously made my day at work haha. I felt so...
Thanks
When people used to write “Thanks for the add!” on myspace/facebook. I always read it as “Yeah, just letting the world know that YOU added ME.”
