La Quinta Inn

Recently, I stayed at the La Quinta Inn in New York, NY. The La Quinta Inn is located on 32nd Street between Broadway and 5th Ave. It is very close to the Empire State building, Macy's, Penn Station, and Madison Square Garden. As far as amenities go, the La Quinta Inn has them all. High speed wifi, free breakfast, free calls within the US, laundry service, and the list just goes on and on. 


I posted about this hotel before but I felt it deserved another post because it's just so goddamn awesome. Seriously.

How to clean a PS3


Dusty fans can greatly affect a console's performance. They also generate a vexatiously louder than usual noise emanating from your powerful machine. If you want to keep things nice and tidy and/or want your fans running smoother, you'll want to have a quick look at this clip.

It's basically a video instruction about running a fan test on your PS3 which also blows out the dust and essentially cleaning it up. What's nice is there's very little effort involved, so you can actually do this every day. Just a warning though, it's only for 40GB models -- doing this on other models will cause the unit to explode nothing to happen.

The Right Way to travel

Forget about your fellow passengers on the plane. Who cares if you have to be on the plane with them for 5~6 hours, you're the only one who's important, especially on a flight that leaves at 10 PM.

First, you'll need as many items as possible. I'm thinking a suitcase, backpack and a massive yet very ugly pillow.

First up, do not acknowledge the person sitting next to you. If you want to look out the window, assuming you didn't get the window seat, lean over the person. Sure, you never met them before, but who cares.

Once you are allowed to use electronic devices, take out your Macbook (because we all know if you're reading this as a real guide, you have a Mac) and be sure to have the brightness on your display all the way up. The person trying to sleep next to you won't mind one bit.

(At this point, I take out my netbook and watch a few shows because there's no way I'm going to be able to sleep with that dick next to me. He fucking leaned over me 5 times in the first 30 minutes of flight!)

After landing, be sure to take forever to gather your belongings and leave the plane. The person next to you is in no rush to stand up and stretch after sitting for around 6 hours.




Also, make sure to fly AA.

LinkedIn Resume Builder Takes the Hassle Out of Updating Your Resume

Thought I'd share this lifehacker article with you guys. Enjoy.



LinkedIn Resume Builder Takes the Hassle Out of Updating Your ResumeIt's difficult enough keeping your resume up-to-date, let alone keeping it in sync with your LinkedIn profile. To help, LinkedIn Labs offers a new way to automate the resume-building process.
Using one of their many preset templates, generating a beautiful resume now only takes a few short clicks. Using these templates will automatically input your previous work experience, and all data associated with it, into properly formatted categories and lists.
Open text fields let you fill in the blanks with more detailed skills, honors, and associations. Users retain full control over the resume's outline and can edit, add, or remove parts at will. LinkedIn hosts previous versions of your resume and makes it easy to share your resume publicly, online, or by saving it as a PDF. It also provides a nice selection of fonts, simple templates. If you're looking to simplify your resume-building process and like to use LinkedIn, it's a tool worth checking out.

I'm back

I'm finally done with all the work that has been piling up. I figured I'd share a joke with you guys and hopefully I'll have something substantial to share with you guys soon.

A balloonist is floating along and suddenly realizes he is lost. He lowers his altitude and notices a man in the field below him. He calls out to him saying: "Excuse me, but I am lost. Could you tell me where I am?"
The man below answers, "You are 50 feet in the air hovering above a field."
The balloonist says: "You must be in Information Technology."
"I am," says the man. "How did you know?"
"Well, everything you said is technically correct, but it is of no use to anyone," says the balloonist.
"You must be in Management," says the man.
"How did you know that?", asks the balloonist.
The man answers: "You are floating around with no idea where you are or where you are going, and you expect me to help. You are in the same position you were when we met, but now its' my fault."

Last post

This will be my only update for a while since I'll be busy. I'll be back in 3 days.

Don't make the mistake I made this semester; I was confident enough to think I can breeze through MicroBio, Anatomy and Physiology, Pathophysiology, and an upper level Nursing course. Needless to say, life sucks at the moment. I'll continue updating once this semester decides to die! 

Plus I'm working with a Malpractice Injury Lawyer, and it's a pretty tough job. I have to manage payments and all that. I'm not really learning as much about medical as much as I thought I would at this job, but thats okay!
