Generation S.L.U.T.

S.L.U.T.=Sexually Liberated Urban Teens

I couldn't remember the exact reason why I picked up the book, but I found it to be an interesting, engaging read. It's really short, and published by MTV (yes, I know) but Marty Beckerman turns out to be a pretty insightful writer, skirting the line between fiction and facts (in the form of stats and news clippings) with finesse.

I woke up pretty early today; I have another interview lined up in the afternoon. And it's hot like hell outside (it's about 32-34 celsius). I'm sure my disgust with the weather around here is sure to be translated into some kind of attitude during the interview, which by the way is at a god-forsaken place--the other goddamn side of singapore to be exact--and I'm sure to screw it up. When the interviewer called me the other day, she asked if I would like the interview to be in the morning, I should have just said yes. But then a big part of me screams "Are you mad! How the hell are you going to wake up and locate a place you've never been in middle of the morning!? (read: 8a.m.)

But I shouldn't complain. I really shouldn't.
