Gorram it, and other minced oaths apply in situations like these

Apr. 5th, 2006 10:31 pm
My Kinmic logic-game proposal got rejected, which was amusing. On its heels came an email saying that I'd been turned down from the undergraduate semester in dialogue, which was discouraging. I was stepping towards declining JET, but a look in my mailbox showed that they'd beaten me to it.
All this in one day... Fuck!

JET Interviews

Feb. 23rd, 2006 07:22 pm
Q1: The man from the consulate asks, "Can you name five people in Japanese politics?"

Q2: The man from the consulate asks, "Okay, can you name two people in Japanese politics?"

Q3: The man from the consulate asks, "Could you at least name the Emperor and the Prime Minister."

Moral: if you apply to JET, keep in mind that one of the people reading your application is a man who:
1 - will notice phrases like "I am interested in Japanese politics"
2 - has a master's degree in Japanese political science and ten years experience in a highly political field
3 - is not happy to be reminded that he is alone in the world
  • Current Music: Snowmelt runs; rhythmic thumping ; mother nature's techno
