What’s up?
By: dab
Hey dabbians. Just writing to see how everyone’s doing. Hope everyone is keeping safe and what have you.
I recently applied for a summer internship with Microsoft. I got a reply regarding an interview and I awaited for the day. Well, 3 days before the interview I came down with a cold. Now, I don’t do well with colds mainly because my allergies enhance the effects ten fold. So I attempted to alleviate the symptoms with some cold medicine which ended up back firing when it came to thought processing. So I might have appeared fine, but character-wise you would know I was not feeling well. An interviewer who does not know me would not know that. Thus leading to my lack of performance during this interview. C’est la vie I say to that. I know I can do better and next time I will do better. So for now, I’ll focus on school, and next year I will try again. I also applied for Google’s internship but I got their default “We’ll keep you in mind until we find a suitable position for you”. Which to me means denial but I understand. They receive thousands of resumes and applications a day I’m sure. So I have to make myself stand out. I’ve got my own plans but I’ll keep those secret for now. I don’t want anyone else to gain tactical advantage over me because I gave away my trade secret. 
Anyway, I’ve got a lot of homework to catch up on. I should get going now.
Until next time!
