Well, these couple weeks have been pretty crazy and I have been too busy to write any blog posts in the last few days. Some big changes are happening in my life, and I may write about them when all the dust is settled. To say the least, there was one surprise after another in the last 10 days and I’m doing something I didn’t think that I would do so soon. Right now I will just say that I believe that everything is going to work out well for all of us because God is good.
Since I didn’t have time to put together any new content, here are some links to the great blog carnivals I participated in the past week:
Carnival of Rants - There are definitely a lot of weird articles here. I really liked this one about John Edwards. It’s short and sweet.
Carnival of the Vanities - This carnival isn’t as awesome as it used to be. So hmm, I submitted my rant about technical recruiters.
Finance Fiesta – This article on ways to blow a job application by Frugal Zeitgeist reminded me of some of the horrible interviews I had to deal with.
Finally, Broke Grad Student did a Olympics themed Carnival of Personal Finance. My article about not being an debt slave to education was included. I thought the Olympics was fantastic this year and the following were my favorite moments:
- Jason Lezak anchoring the 4×100m relay for the USA men’s team. That was amazing to watch. He was the oldest guy and had the fastest split ever.
- Oksana Chusovitina winning a silver in vault as the oldest female gymnast EVER. This woman’s story is just amazingly inspriring.
- India winning their first individual gold medal ever. The winner is a young hardware engineer named Abhinav Bindra. He just seems so nerdy, and that’s why it’s so cool.
- Chinese badminton player rips off his shirt to show off his funny tattoo. I was watching that game live on nbcolympics. I actually fell over laughing when he ripped off his shirt, but later on I figured out what exactly the words on his back said. That just made it funnier.
- China ending the games with 100 medals, including 51 gold, the most gold medals ever won by China.
That’s it for now. I’ll write more when I find time!
