..when everything starts out right.
I opened my eyes this morning and realized that hey, I woke up early today. When I walked over to my closet, I actually knew what I was going to wear today. And on the train station, I came just in time to catch the empty train. When I sat on my desk I glanced around and realized that yeah, I came in earlier than my "neighbors" today.
So I said to myself that today is going to be a good day.
Until something really small and really insignificant happened. Something no one woud've have noticed except me, of course.
And now I'm left to wonder whether this really will be a good day after all.

photo op!
I realized that my blog is in need of photos. Since I havent been out "shooting" yet, I opted to post this photo...that's me with my best girls minus two.
And this is also the best time to advertise our blog...at the very core
and there you will find even more photos of us! along with entries reminiscing and saying nothing. :)
Everyone should make a habit out of writing and re-writing their own resumes. Even if they are currently employed and not really looking for a new job.
The trick is to write and create it as if you were seriously vying for a position….
I tell you, the experience is humbling.
All of a sudden, the past accomplishments seem so insignificant, the stress and the long hours all seem as if they were for naught.
All of a sudden you want to look good, not in person, but on paper. Its as if you’re donning you’re favorite outfit that makes you look uber professional for that first day at work…or for my fellow-SPLers, for that first ever, nerve racking first Panel presentation (okay, well that is if you did dress up for it, God Knows I did -- and I still say they SHOULD!)
Maybe resume writing can take the place of the yearly performance evaluation. Or it can be done parallel to it. Grated that you are being truthful and honest about your achievements, it forces you look at your work from an outsider’s point of view and makes you ask the question….so what??
At the end of it though, I cannot guarantee that you would want to keep doing what you’re doing. Do not blame me if all of a sudden you’re unhappy with what you do.
