Guys Gone Wild
Alright so I'm sure you're familiar with Girls Gone Wild, and yes there is a guys version of the DVDs. Girls, you may think its funny go get this DVD as a gift or maybe even get drunk at watch it. Let me just tell you now, don't do it. You're gonna think its funny, maybe a little gross but a funny gross. It's not. It's not a whole lotta funny just a whole lotta gross. So even if you think you can handle it, you may think you're different and that it's not going to be as gross for you as it is for others. But, it will be. So Just Dont Do It.

Little Known Fact
I am a closet gangta rapper. Yes, that's right I know pretty much ever song lyric to ever rap song that has ever been made. Try to test me. So I love that my mom went out and bought me The Gangsta Rap coloring book, complete with read to color in pictures of everyone from Snoop Dogg to DJ Qick. Gotta love it, I already colored in about half of them. Just plug in your ipod, scrool to all the rao/hip hop music you have, and get yo color on.. fo!
Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So creepy, ad totally what I would do to my family if I were a member of snl!
New Computer Time
So Im in the process of looking for a new computer because as much as I love mt little Mac book, it sucks for wathcing movies on. However, I do love my Apples so Im looking for a good deal on one with a gigantic screen so it can double as my TV. Pretty much, I don't need TV anymore unless I want to play on my Wii. They really need a way to make it so I can play my Wii on my Mac. If anyone knows if that is possible and wants to let me know how to do it, I will love you forever!
Best music video ever!
I love Adam Levine! This video plays non-stop in my apartment so check it out!
Disneyland
So because I should be strudying for finals, and I'm really stressed out about all my classes, I decided it was a good idea to go to Disneyland this week. It actually works out cause then I'll have some motivation to actually get a head start on all my work since I am pumped to get on Space Mountain!!! I haven't been to D-land in forever and I get to go with the coolest people ever (except for Ashley K.) Anyway, it is really exciting and I've been planning this trip forever so I better actually do some studying so I can still go! :)

Secret Bunny
So me and some of my roommates did Secret Bunny-- like Secret Santa but for Easter. Even though it's a little late, all the gifts were pretty funny so I just wanted to give a shout out to the girls who did get the stuff together (Pohlen we're still waiting for you.) Anyway, I got a Mr. Potato Head Play-Do set and a hip-hop gorilla that dances to the song Tootsie Roll along with a TON of candy. Thanks again guys!
PS Ashley I hope you still are rockin that key chain muahhahahaha

Dane Cook!
If you guys have never been to The Laugh Factory, go as soon as you can! I went this Friday and saw Dane Cook along with some other really funny comedians. The cost is a little high for college students, 30 bucks for a VIP ticket plus about 10 for the 2 drink minimum, but it's way cheaper than a lot of concerts and FUNNY! I challenge you to go to a show there and still be in a bad mood about finals... it won't happen. Even if you're not lucky enough to see Dane Cook all the other comedians are still really funny, so check it out people!

Gifts
So I broke down and actually spent about 5 dollars on facebook gifts, yes facebook gifts. The only reason I did this was cause my roommate got 10 gifts and gave me pretty much all of them so I felt the need to give some back. So now im stuck with 4 facebook gifts just chillin and I am out 5 dollars because of stupid virtual gifts.

Hearts!
As if my roommate situation weren't bad enough I found out Friday in a madatory meeting by Conquest Housing that other roommate have been putting a tape recorder in our living room to catch us talking poorly of others. That one really takes the prize for Craziest Roommate Ever. Way to go!

The is for Usher
Usher if you are reading my blog (which I know you frequently do) you need to come out with a new CD...stat. It's been a little while since your last one and it would do everyone a service if you just got back into the studio and cracked out a few hits so I have something to listen to in my car. I mean I'm pretty sick of my other CDs and your's was one of my favorites to listen to. So get on that.. thanks honey, I'll see you later tonight when I stalk your house.
Oh, College
When I was a senior in high school, I swore I was not going the "average" college student. I was going to go to bed early and wake up early so I could go for a run or go to the gym before class. I was going to stay really close to my high school friends. I was going to cook healthy balenced meals. I was going to take my classes seriously and do all my work. I was not going to go out and party every Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. This all lasted for about my first week in college. In high school, I wasn't really a goodie goodie but I just couldn't really see myself falling into the "college" lifestyle. Now, I typicall wake up at abut noon, go to sleep around 2 or 3 in the morning and am lucky if I eat one actual healthy meal a day (extra points if I can get a vegtable in that meal.)
Conquest Meeting
So I have to attend a mandatory meeting with Conquest Housing tomorrow morning about our "roommate issues." I also recieved a letter from my roommate detailing a list of clothes she apprently left here. I kid you not this was a 2 page typed list which said she left such items as a, "Express coral tank." Don't worry, it's not pink, or even peach but a coral tank. So no she has called a meeting that all of us roommates must attend. She's a freaking crazy person!

American Idol
I don't really watch the show anymore but I have heard about this whole vote for the worst idea that's going around about getting Sangia to win so that the show will somehow lose its credibility. To be honest, I don't really know how voting him as the winner of the show will really prove anything. It will just show that voters do have an impact for who wins American Idol which is not really a bad thing and it really won't take away ratings from the show. The people that it really hurts are the other contestants on the show who actually do have talent and deserve to win.
The Row
So this past Thursday I hit up USC's good ol Frat Row with a few of my friends. I don't know what it is about the Row that just makes me feel so old. As I'm only a junior I really shouldn't feel old but whenever a young wide-eyed heavily drunk freashman comes up to me and asks how to get back to New/North from Royal street, I can't help but feel like I really have no place being there. Also, being a junior I like to think I've moved past taking shots from used cups from a $10 handle of vodka or mixing my shot with a nice swig of warm orange flavored Shasta, which has completly lost all of it's carbonation. On top of that I don't enjoy waiting in line for a good half hour to use a bathroom which has a single toliet which hasn't been cleaned in a good 10 years and has no toliet paper. The only reason I seem to go to the Row is because my friends are there, so to all my friends: how bout we stop this little outing and maybe go to a real club, eh?

Blades of Glory
So I went to go see the new Will Ferrel movie Bllades of Glory this weekend, and it was just as amazing as I thought it was gonna be! I don't want to give away anything for the people who haven't seen it, but anything staring Will Ferrell is good in my book. So watch the trailer and go see the movie!

Trying to save money suuuuucks!
Right now I'm trying to pay off my credit card bill which skyrocketed during the Christmas season and so I'm trying to cut down on my spending to pay it off. i didn't really realize how much it can cost just to go out and walk around. In an effort to have fun on a budget me and some friends went to City Walk last night, just to get out of our apartments but not do anything too crazy. It ended up costing us $10 just to park and when we got there all the stores were closing and it was super cold out. We stayed for all of 20 minutes before we just got back in the car and went to Target to kill time, since it was the only thing up. Not including gas money our little "free" trip cost us each about $15 which we could've just used to go see a movie or saved up for when we had some money to go shopping. All this leads to one thing: Sun, if you're listening, you really need to come out more so I can go to the beach and not worry about all this!
Lily Allen
Is my new favorite artist! I just got her CD (and I hardly ever actually buy a CD) and it rocks my world. It's easy to listen to yet really upbeat and fun. On top of that she's got great style and a kick ass music video... the last time I was so enthusiastic about an artist was probably back in my NSync days!
PS Lance Bass you're still my favorite member and you being gay is only a slight set back in our master plan to get married

I'm pretty sure I just figured out when myspace will become uncool
When your parents start making profiles. Yup, that's right, my mom now has a myspace page. She asked me to help her set it up a few weeks ago complete with a profile song (Rick James "Superfreak" is case you were wondering,) pictures of her, background, the whole thing. Now she can check up on me through my myspace profile and see what pictures I have up or what my friends are saying to me. I think once this starts happening more frequently people are going to delete their myspace, just try telling your parents you love going to class only to find out the read your comments on myspace and know you went to the beach that day instead.... not fun.

If yahoo messenger and AIM got in fight yahoo messenger would OWN
Recently my friend turned me on to yahoo messenger cause it's the only way people can talk to her at work and since then I've forced all my friends to get on that thing too. The smiley faces on yahoo messenger are the best, they're annimated and have tons more options. I also love the little buzz feature which alerts the person you're talking to, to pay attention (it's perfect for annoying the girls I live with.) There is also a web chat feature and you can change the names on your buddy list to what every you want, so it will tell you, your friend Stinky McSmell-a-lot is online. Best thing ever!
Roommate update
So as I've already mentioned I share a room with a crazy person. Well, its only gotten worse... On Thursday my roommate had my car towed FROM MY OWN SPOT! She claimed she had never seen it before and didn't know who it belong to and that I was parking in her spot. THEN the next day her dad came to remove all the furniture in the apartment that was her's, which happens to include the bed I sleep on. That was sure nice to come back to, and I ended up having to move a mattress at 2 in the morning so I could have somewhere to sleep. The good news is now I have my own room and hopefully the crazy won't be coming back anytime soon.

Hi my name is Jessica....
And I'm a Perez-a-holic. I just can't get enough of it! I find myself checking it right when I wake up and right before I go to bed. Interning in a PR firm that deals with a lot of celebrity press and seeing what goes into booking a magazine cover or getting a feature article, I love that there is no presmission or anything required to get onto PerezHilton.com. He can pretty much say whatever he wants and even post some of the press releases that the publists issue on his website. I think this actually gives the public a much better understanding of what REALLY is going on in the celebirty world, and even when he does put a celebrity down it just makes them appear more human and I for one am willing to be more forgiving of that celebrities actions. Showing celebirties in this human light and cutting through all the quotes and statements they issue which are often no more than just a quote a celebrity publists made up and sent to a media outlet, really gives people a better picture of the inter-working of the industry. I <3 Perez!
Living situation
So I'm currently trying to figure out where I'll be living next year as the rates in the buliding I am currently in have gone up so much that I would be paying close to a thousand dollars a month to share a bedroom. As much as I like living across the street from campus I sure don't like it THAT much. Which means I'm on craigs list every day seaching for bulidings or houses or anything so that I have a roof over my head next year. By doing this I realized i can have my own room in a 3 bedroom house for about the same I am paying in rent right now to share a room (although my roommate hasnt come back all semester...see previous posts on her.) Its so crazy that all these USC students are so willing to pay for an apartment just to be close to campus when they could really be getting so much for their money by moving a little bit further away and renting a house or apartment. I guess what they say is true... location, location, location
And Im back..
From Spring Break that is which is rough. It really was like a mini summer break and all it did was make me want to be done with this semester and actually be on summer break. Its always the same, I plan on catching up on all my school work over break and put things off leading up to it knowing that of course I will work on it over break. Then break actually does come along and I do nothing. I dont even see friends I was planning on seeing. I do nothing. No going to the movies with long lost pals, cleaning out my room, fun raod trips, catching up on reading. Nothing. Just sitting and watching TV taking long naps and getting nothing achomplished. Then I get to come back and actually do all the stuff I had put off. Soooo much fun!

I called it!
I posted a while back about overalls being my must have pick for Spring, and I've finally found the pair I've been dreaming of. Only problem is they're $185 and I already got a cheap pair for $30 about a month ago. I guess we all can't be as fasionable as we'd like, but lets hope my tax refund is enough to convinve my mom that this would be a wise purchase and that I deserve it... I mean just look how cute they are!
I just discovered flickr!
How could I have lived my whole photo sharing life without this site??? It soooo much better than photobucket, cause now I can upload more than one picture at a time, organize them super easily and even email certain albums to friends. Wow I sound like a commercial for this site but it really is my new obsession along with the Photobooth feature on Macs, I still haven't gotten over that one, the people at Apple are my heros!

Spring Break is in the air
up, its a few degrees warmer outside, there are people yelling and walking around at every time of the day and night in my apartment complex, and all the students you see are a little bit loopy after just having finished up midterms and papers. Once I am done with class for the day, I too am going to join in on all the fun I've been watching everyone else have. Even though I am just going home to relax and watch TV all day long, I am just as excited about doing that as I would be about a Cancun vacation paid for by MTV. I cannot wait to just sleep and know there is absolutly nothing I have to do the next day but lay out by the pool and maybe start the paper I have due when I get back

Two of my favorite things have finally combined
Ice Cream and Stephen Colbert. Yup, that's right Ben and Jerry's have joined forced with Colbert to create a new ice cream flavor Americone Dream. The Ben and Jerry's website says, "The flavor, Stephen Colbert’s AmeriCone Dream™ is a decadent melting pot of vanilla ice cream with fudge-covered waffle cone pieces and a caramel swirl. It’s the sweet taste of liberty in your mouth."
Have you ever been sucked under by a wave?
You're just playing around in the ocean and all of the sudden you get caught up in a big wave, tumbled around a little bit and then spit back out, leaving you feeling shaken, disoriented, and wondering what just happened to you. I think that is the closest I can get to describing how I feel ever time I get back from a visit from Santa Barabara. I go there for a weekend, just a few days and everything seems normal at the time. Sure there is a lot of spinning around but nothing seems too out of the ordinary while you're walking along DP going from stanger's house to stranger's house with your close friends from high school and a bunch of random people who you just met, but promise you're best friends with cause you guys totally have so much in common. It's all fun and games until you take the 2 hour drive back to USC and have a pounding headache and wonder why you have so many bruises on your legs. I have a lot of respect for those kids at UCSB who manage to do this all the time and still go to class and actually get work done. I have no idea how they can keep doing it but they are by the ocean, and I guess they just get used to the waves.

OH NO, OH NO EVERYBODY LOOK OUT....
.....ITS A MAC ATTACK!!!!! So there is a built in camera on iMacs that lets you take pictures right on your computer and do all sorts of weird effects to them. Sounds pretty simply but, it is in fact, the best invention ever made. My mom, bff Rochelle, and I were in front of my mom's computer for a good 2 hours and took a total of 83 pictures on this things. During this time, my mom literally peed her pants from laughing so hard. I LOVE technology!
I <3 Roommates
So I live in a 3 bedroom 6 person apartment, all girls. With those kinds of numbers you would expect there to be some serious drama, and there is, but really only with one of the girls. I just so happen to be the lucky person who shares a room with this girl, who over the course of the semester has bad-mouthed me to all the other roommates and, as we later came to find out, was bad-mouthing all of the other roomates to each of us. Having lived with her for 3 years now, I get the brunt of the blow as she proceded to drunkenly hook-up with my high school crush on my birthday, in our own room, locking me out so I was forced to sleep on the couch, along with telling people I had an obsession with exercise (yes, I've run a marathon but I have yet to hear any doctors tell me that's bad for m body,) and then randomly tell me the day before my birthday (in September) that I owe her $400 and was expected to somehow come up with it that day. She had known about these charges, which were for our apartment in the 2005/2006 year for at least 3 months and then just brought them up one day unexplained and expecting the money. After she forced me into agruing the issue in front of all the other roomates at the beginning of school before I even had a chance to get to know them, I got so frusterated that I left her a check for the $400 just so I could call it even and never talk to her again. Well now, a good 5 months after this, she sends me a letter in the mail, to the apartment where we SHARE A ROOM with copies of paperwork from 2005 saying that I now owe $754 and that the $400 was an arbutrary amount I made up and she refuses to cash checks out of spite and if I fail to pay this money she will take legal action against me. This after she makes me pay another $400 for a parking spot in a parking structure across from our bulding and then never uses the spot that is in our building, but for the 10 minutes she is in the apartment yells at me to move my car (I had not parked in the structure but in the spot in out building) and then leaves, never parking in the spot and has been gone now for a full week. So, when we get a knock on the door last night from someone looking for her, the other roomates and I were a little curious. Turnes out, my roommate had hit this girls car 3 weeks ago down in our parking area and her dad was going to pay her off in cash as to not go through insurance. Only afer weeks she hadn't gotten any money and my roommate and roommate's dad stop returning her calls. Luckily there is footage of her hitting the car from security cameras and luckily she left a copy of her drivers licence number in our room, which we happily copied and gave to the girl. Its just so great when "friends" try to sue you for money you owe them and don't even do the same for others. :)

Think of explaining an IPod to a person born in 1765...
That is what's it's like trying to talk to my dad about anything related to computers. He has a computer at work and one at home, yet somehow when I e-mail him a youtube video clip, he has no clue in the world what to do with it. I once tried to explain to him what an Ipod was but stoped as soon as we got to the concept of MP3s. My dad is in his early 60s but certainly a smart man who is more than capable of figuring out how to use a computer and find media he may like. I don't think it's that the older generation really has a problem with technology, my dad doesn't really seem scared of it, he just really has no interest in getting any more media content at home than he already has. If he knew of all the great ways he could distract himself at work with, he might actually be motivated to figure out how this internet thing works.
All of this comes a day after I helped my mom set up her myspace page. Though she had no idea how to add friends, make a background, or put on a song onto her profile; she sat and watched intently as I did it and when I signed onto my myspace account today she had already done more work on her page. For some reason, the concept of being able to reach people is something she is very interested in while my dad mostly uses the internet to read political articles and forward the occasion funny picture of cat to me, that my uncle e-mail to him. It would seem as if my mom were a very social person in the real world, but that is not the case at all, she meets all of the men she dates through match.com and hardly ever leaves the house unless she's meeting one of these dates. I have no clue why online socialiation is so much more appealing to her than real life socialization but that's all she seems to do. Oh parents.

we so cheesy
Oh yes, me and the roommates had a "chessy" party this weekend. This party was invented as a way for me and my roommate Ashley to procrastinate and ended up taking on such a life of its own that there was no choice but the carry out this plan. The party was centered on chessy music, mainly Lionel Richie's "All night long" but it did also include some great boy band hits from the mid- 90s and techno dance hits. There were also cheesy drinks, featuring Tab, juice boxes, and good ol' Sunny D. Of course, we had to dress chessy, with side ponytails, leggings, and bright colors. Finally, the night wouldn't be complete without some cheesy games. As if games at a college party weren't chessy enought, we had to bring out the jenga and hungry hungry hippos just to make everything extra cheesy. All in all a pretty good theme for a party. Up next..... the I'm a Barbie Girl Party

Gotta Love Valentine's Day...
NOT. I have not talked to one person who likes this Holiday. If you're single, its just a reminder that you're single, which isn't even a bad thing! But, for some reason people think it's a negative quality on this one random day of the year. If you do have someone, chances are they're gonna mess it up and not live up to your grand expectations of what a Valentine should do for you. On top of all that we have to deal with the commericals. Bleh!! Image after image of happy couples. Couples at the park, at the mall, in a car, kissing in a field, couples everywhere. There is just no need for that. It is not representative of real life and just makes the expectations of Valentine's day that much unrealistic. As today is NOT Valentine's day, it is the perfect day to tell all those I care about how much I love them. So, to all my friends and family... I LOVE YOU GUYS you rock my world, and I'll tell you that every single day, except Valentine's day.
Midterm!
Yea i have a midterm today at 2, which means I am stressed! Its my first one of the semester and I am not looking forward to taking it at all. But the one good thing about taking midterms is that I come up with new and exciting ways to distract myself from studying. So far I've planned a party, found about 7 random videos on youtube, made plans for this weekend, made up a dance, changed all the ringtones on my phone, and organized the pictures on my computer. Now it's time to actually buckle down a study :(

Work
I'm at work right now, and by work I mean sitting at a desk for 8 hours taking over someone else's job but not getting paid for it. Oh how I love being an intern. At least I get to sit down and don't have to be on my feet all day like I did in retail, though they did actually give me money for that work. Bleh I'm bored and have a midterm tomorrow and don't want to study for it. College rocks!

Best Friends for Life!
Yup that's us! Aren't we cute? This is my best friend Rochelle, we met about 2 years ago while suffering through work at Nordstrom. Happily neither one of us works there anymore but we still e-mail everyday and see each other at least twice a month, making the hour drive each way just to hang out. We always joke that we're so glad we didn't meet in high school cause we would never have given each other a chance, I was the honor student shy girl who always did what she was told, and she was....well not so much of that. Its funny how if I would have met her in any other context besides Nordstrom we would not have been so close now; but, since we were flug together in an enviornment that put like people together, we assumed we were more similar than we really were. Once we did get to know each other we realized that we did share many interests and in many ways she is the type of person I always wanted to be but was too chicken. At the time we met I really needed to have someone like her--spontaneous, laid back, pushy, and straight to the point-- in my life. When she was upset over something I did, she called me on it, instead of talking to someone else about it behind my back. I have learned so much about who I am through her and am so happy that I got the oppurtunity to get so close to this wonderful girl! <33333

I have found the perfect man
His name is Marc Jacobs. For those of you who don't know who the love of my life, Marc, is he's a fashion disigner who not only disigns for hi own lable, Marc Jacobs, but also does lower end line, Marc by Marc Jacobs, and heads up the giant Louis Vuttion lable. Each of these three lines does a full range of clothes, bags, shoes, and accessories and Marc does them all in fresh and new way. For his Fall 07 Marc Jacobs collection it was all about color, which he mixed expertly. You would be hard pressed to find another person who would boldly mix orange, blue, and yellow all in the same outfit yet manage to pull it off and make it look grown up and chic, but Marc pulled it off. His collection for Louis Vuttion was exqually as impressive as it drew inspiration from ballarinas, keeping the dreeses soft and very feminen as though they were walking straight out of Midsummers Night Dream. How he managed to do two collections that showcased completly different looks but did them so well is a mystery to me, but the man knows fashion and always hits the mark (pun inteended) changing up his looks from season to season but also keeping it classy, fun, and flirty which is what fashion should be.

Spring
Its the middle of winter which of course means...time to get clothes for spring! My one pick for this spring:overalls. Now calm construction worker Tim, not those kind of overalls. I'm talkin cute feminine short overalls that take you back to those care free days of playing in the sandbox all summer long. But, we're not seven years old anymore so ditch the pigtails and instead keep hair and make up done and grown up. Grab a sexy tube top to wear underneath, show off those shoulders and slip into a nice pair of pretty flirty flip-flops to complete the look. Just make sure to keep this look for running around to Starbucks and around town during the day and opt for something a little more done up for night and you'll be sure to stay crazy cute this spring.

I hate being sick
It has been said that college students are sick all year round, with so many of them in such a small place, living in the same room, sharing drinks, and sometimes saliva, how can they avoid it? For some reason I am the poster child of the sick college student, I just got over my cold only to find out two weeks later I now have strep throat. :( When will this ever end? It seems I buy dayquil now more water and am losing friends cause they always complain about me getting them sick. Ok, so maybe those are a little exagerated but still.

Advice
So after being employed by Nordstrom on and off for a good two years, I have come to realize that you don't truly know how crazy people are until you work with the public. With that in mine, I have come up with a list for the average comsumer of things of the most annoying things you can do when shopping in a department store.
1. If you have not been in the department store for more than a week, telling us where you last saw an item last will NOT help us find it. We hardly know where things are now and since merchandise gets shifted around daily, I can promise you that the shirt that was folded on the table last month is not still folded there, so just let that go.
2. Stores have different departments people. I don't know if we have any black shoes that would go with your new jeans, I don't work in shoes, if you want to know if we have good shoes for them go to the shoe department and ask them.
3. I don't know what your daughter/sister/mother-in-law/best friend's cousin's wife would like. I can show you what I like but unless you give me some info about what other brands or things they like, I cannot help you.
4. Leave the small children at home. I understand that babysitters are expensive but pumping into people and tables with your stroller and crying child is just not cool.
5. If YOU are a child, don't hide in clothing fixtures. The world is new to you, I get that, and you need to explore, but there are other place to do this. We are worrying about enough without having kids pop out of unexpected palces.
6. If you are for sure not going to buy anything, don't try on 20 pairs of jeans, 12 tops, and 15 dresses and then leave them all off the hanger on the floor for us to pick up.
7. If you have no reciept, tag, or ANY proof of purchase, I cannot retun it for you. Don't get an attitude about it, it wasn't me who bought it, wore it a few times, washed it, and then realized I had no more money to pay my rent.
8. There is no need to use your shopping time as time to also catch up with everyone in your life on your cell phone. I'm trying to fold these jeans and really don't want to hear about how your new boyfriend won't text you back while you mouth to me that you need a fitting room.
9. Fitting room doors are there for a reason, I don't want to see you in your bra or undies or both. You may have a great body but lets keep that to yourself and throw the jeans over the door so I can get you another size.
10. Those jeans don't fit. Certain jeans are made for certain people, let's just face facts. It doen't make you less of a person, but you need to come to terms with the fact that you are not going to be a size 2, it's just not happening.

job hunt
Im a college student. I need food. I need books. I need money. I need a job. This weekend was the start of a fun tradition I do at the beginning of every semester called: looking for a job. As much as I love my unpaid internship, Bank of America doesn't really accept valuable work experience as a form of payment for my credit card which has forced me to take on a paying job as well. This years job hunt went according to plan, I left my apartment with resumes in hand prepared to litter the Beverlly Center with my application; but, when I got there got there I ended up getting side-tracked at Bloomingdales for about an hour, passed out one resume and then hit the food court. Even though I didn't get as mant applications filled out as I would have liked, anytime I can have orange chicken from Panda Express and fries from Tommys in one meal I consider my day to be a success
