Third day of classes and I’m already behind on my reading assignments. I am not proud.

The Employment History of Jeremy Gundel: Part III,...
The summer between my freshman and sophomore years at college, I was an intern at CollegeHumor. People often ask me: “Jeremy, how did a loser like you end up with such an awesome internship?” The answer is: I don’t know. One day, when I was looking at the CollegeHumor website, they had a post that said they were looking for interns, the requirements being that you have a good...

OMGKJKSKIFSUHDFU I heard that there was this unicorn Barack Obama and he was going to take three hours to walk down the street today and people were going to go apeshit
He’s not a unicorn. Unicorns are white.

Tumblr founder David Karp went to, and dropped out of, Bronx Science. That’s where I went to high school!
I want to live here when I grow up. I will live in a Sandwich house on Sandwich Street. I will work in the Sandwich factory. My kids will go to Sandwich school, and on weekends we will go to Sandwich beach and eat Sandwiches from the local Sandwich restaurant. Also, my wife will be smokin’ hot.
The Employment History of Jeremy Gundel: Part II
In today’s entry, we move on to the second real job I had: Customer Sales Associate (or something like that) at Eckerd Drug Store. I got the job around the end of my junior year of high school, but had actually applied about 6 months earlier. They never got back to me, and I never even had a real interview. Nevertheless, through what I can only assume was some sort of clerical error, they...

OH OH OH FYI Hulu only works in America. Not in Scotland. Is that the most ass thing you’ve ever heard? Maybe Binghamton is secretly in Scotland?
Does Scotland have a slightly unsettling number of homeless veterans? Because then I think you might be on to something.
The Employment History of Jeremy Gundel: Part I
For those who don’t know, I have a job. If you are wondering: “Where do you work?” I would answer with: “theladders.com.” If you are wondering: “Do you like it?” I would answer with: “Not particularly.” But that is not exactly the point of today’s post. Let’s start from the beginning, shall we? If you had told me when I was 10 years old that you would pay me $50 a week to do 7 or 8 hours of work,...
Things I Think About
I was just deleting some old text messages from my cellophone, and I saw one that I had received from an unknown number on Christmas, wishing me a Merry Christmas. I didn’t want to ruin his/her day by not wishing him/her a Merry Christmas too, so that’s just what I did. Now that I think about it though, maybe I should have just told this person it was a wrong number, because maybe the...
I feel like blogging...
…but I have nothing in particular that I want to talk about. So, I am going to use a technique that I learned in my freshman year creative writing course: to just start typing and see what happens.
Look, it is happening. I am typing. Words are appearing. They are not very interesting. I had the damn math class dream again last night. Lame. I could have said “gay” back there...

Tonight was exactly as it should be. It won’t produce too many “remember whens”, it wasn’t NYE 2009 omfg!!1, and there were no midnight kisses. Instead, there was laughing, avid Seacrest appreciation, and arguments over whether to watch the Jonas Brothers or Walking Tall. It was overall a very enjoyable evening with people that are real, good friends, and this evening was also...
