Way Busy!

So, I haven't blogged in a while. That is mostly due to the fact that I have overbooked myself... once again. I am just finishing a four-week (winter term) management consulting class. I actually was assigned an Orange County business that is in need of some assistance. They basically have a revenue generating issue. My job is just to tell them how to fix it.

Some very good news is that I was offered a graduate teaching assistant position for a economics professor at Chapman. I actually get to teach some lectures and grade the tests and papers. I am very excited... since I am trying to get more teaching experience on my resume. The crazy part was when I left the interview with the econ teacher another teacher saw me and asked to speak with me. His name is P.K. Shukla and he was named Entrepreneur Teacher of the Year for the entire US. Somehow her got a hold of my resume and saw that I have grant writing experience for the Non-Profit that I am currently working at. He said that he really needs a Graduate Research Assistant and is very interested in me. Well, before I knew it I had to new part-time jobs (a Graduate Teaching Assistant and a Graduate Research Assistant). I couldn't pass up the opportunity, but this will be an additional 20 hours a week to my current full-time work load. And... I am still taking 8 units of Graduate classes.

Yesterday I did an interview for KDOC (Orange County Television) about the price increases at the grocery stores. Yesterday a gallon of milk averaged $5.33 in Orange County. I spoke to the economic reasons why the prices are increases, and gave tips to save at the grocery store. I totally thought they should call Lisa Henderson. She is the best at ways to save.

Today I was an actually guest on the talk show Joy in Our Town on the Trinity Broadcast network. So, it wasn't The View or Oprah, but it was my first ever live-to-tape 30-minute interview. It airs on KTBN on 2-22-08 at 10 am. I don't have the channel, but they gave me a DVD.
