I also wonder about this! LOL You are one of those girls who are buddy types? I have mastered the ugly and condescending female stare--perhaps one day if we meet, I can teach it to you. If you can cultivate an icy upper class tone along with it, your presence will strike fear in the hearts of males who over step their boundaries of public decency.
Just kidding.
Well, not really. I find that most men I meet these days are quite nice, so my stare has lost its original coldness.

I was not chosen for the graduate assistant position. I have mixed feelings--relief and regret. I would really like to find a paying job (even min wage in my field/hence regret) however, the responsibilities of the position were really too demanding for a full time student---they wanted me to be on call!!
The search continues.
