January is probably a better time to apply when companies figure out their budgets for the new year.</div>

    same thing here, just frustrating staying home and doing sh*t all. i got my grades back for my CSC on Dec 1, so i've been only applying for a little while anyways.

    Get a part time job, and start networking with co-workers. Then when you get the job you really want call your ex-co-workers up and sale them on making you their financial advisor.

    I'm no expert on Darfur, but if you can map out the opportunities and the typical needs of a person trying to live in Darfur I'll try and take on the challenge.

    It's a warzone, so my first goal would be doing what I can to get as far away from Darfur as possible.

    You think you can solve the Darfur crisis in an essay? Jesus, man, cut your losses and admit you were mistaken

    I mean, Jesus Christ

    When did I make that claim? I told him to give me some specifics on a particular scenario and I'd try to work through a solution. I said I'm not an expert on Darfur, but there are always options for a person to improve their living situation.
