Mr. Brightside

Mr. Brightside - The Killers has been a fav song of mine recently. Also Switch by Will Smith. i really like hip hop that doesn't have to be all hard core all the time.

anyways...

i've been interviewing. mostly positions in the bay area. locked down my first offer...woo hoo!! doesn't pay a lot but i would be able to have a lot of decision making power for an intern. basically...if i want to start a up a marketing program in china...i just fly myself right on over and start! they really like me so i have flexibility to respond to their offer a little later since the other companies i'm talking to also seem so interesting and i won't be able to interview with them until next week. there are some very intriguing business develepment opportunities. now with biotech...this is HUGE. biotechs don't normally hire business dev positions without a Phd or MD. and this will be with a company which is already large but i'm sure will be taking off even more in the next few years. I'm also talking to a VC firm in palo alto and will find out in a week if they have a spot. i'm in a good place i know...good choices to choose from. but it's been on my mind all week...worrying about which will be the best choice for my career. what if the vc position doesn't give me as many responsiblities as i would like ...is the business dev position better because it makes me more visible? do VC's only care about if i was working for a VC or what responsibilities i have had? I'm meeting up with a biotech VC panel this week. one of them has become a friend of mine. perhaps i'll ask him. hooray for mentors in the industry. :D

i have homework and projects due....i'm so distracted cuz i just want to go home already....


bay area here i come!
