Animals teach us about humanity

Caption: The only difference between panthers and leopards is color.

Thanks to dontshushme @ tumblr for the following series of pictures!
The Zoo Aquarium in Madrid puts out a series of photos/adverts comparing the animal kingdom to human, specifically how they sometimes act more compassionate and non-discriminatory than we do.

What’s in an Asian?

I just did my first speech at Toastmasters, a nonprofit group that bring local people together to practice their oratory skills.  It was pretty nerve racking, buT apparently everything went really well.  The evaluator said that the only thing I needed to change was not to grip onto the podium for dear life.  He commented [...]

East Bay vs. West…Peninsula-ish?

Life’s been a-hella hectic to sit down and write the posts that I truly want.  At some point, probably tonight or tomorrow, I’ll sit down and write a completely post about Maliha’s visit. (You can see pictures on my Tumblr if you scroll back to May 26.)  Right now, I just finished a huge ******* presentation, [...]

eRoom vs. Basecamp

I’m researching online collaboration software/websites for my company and am looking at eRoom and Basecamp.  We have some experience using Basecamp, but I’m used to eRoom via Wharton.
After a few minute call with EMC(2), who owns eRoom, here’s why I’m definitely recommending Basecamp to my company:

I don’t want to answer a 5 minute survey about who I [...]

Quick note

There is sooo much going on recently that I want to blog about.  But with my good college friend visiting and work’s still completely crazy (I’m like the crack addict who keeps telling herself she’ll quit next week), I’m not sure when I’ll get to writing.
Please be patient with me, because there are some amazing [...]

Puck Fizza Hut

I thought I’d try the “gourmet” pastas at Pizza Hut because I’ve had them in China before, and they’re quite good.

However, 2 HOURS after I’ve placed my order, still no pasta…  As a customer, no more Pizza Hut.  You’re not America’s favorite pizza… you’re America’s worst douchebag…
As a marketing/communications professional: you might want to double [...]

Tuteypie!

I know it’s been a whole day and a half since I posted cute pictures, but really?  What’s wrong with more cuteness!?!
Exactly!  So with no further interruption, cute baby animals and my quirky captions:

“The peanuts.  They call to me.”
