Claire Veuthey Hi all- Here's my post on how I did in February, and what I'm planning for March: http://cveuthey.blogspot.com/2010/03/february-goals-update-and-march-goa... I'm really loving this group; it's helped enormously!

Rebecca Thorman Sorry, one more thought on item 3 - I did like that you were able to identify your key strengths, however. I don't think it takes anything away from your resume, but I do see that as space that could be used with something stronger since you would, again, most likely cover that in your cover letter. So go with whatever feels best for you :)

It is interesting, but nothing I want to do for the rest of my life ;) I have been looking into further education in the sustainability field, but as I have already a Master in Innovation and another one in Quality for now I will go for meeting with people, getting contacts etc ;)

Claire Veuthey I’m an unabashed fan of Michael Ondaatje’s work. Rabih Alameddine’s 'The Hakawati' set just the right magical-realism tone for my trip to Beirut this summer. And Junot Diaz’s second book 'The Brief and Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao' is a fine example of his particular salsa of humor, history, Latino slang and teenage pathos. Strongly recommended!

Claire Veuthey Rebecca, what was your intent in creating this network? And what's your role specifically in this field? I'll start: I'm a researcher for a responsible investment research provider; our clients are mostly institutional investors. Looking forward to your reply!

Feel free to send me a message if you have more questions! And have a great time: the park and landscape are really breathtaking.

If you haven't already been to the Philippines many Filipinos will tell you to go to two places:Baguio-4ish hours from the capital and Boracay-have to island hop but well worth it. It's been a couple of years since I've been there, so I kinda envy you atm. For some history head to Ft. Ilocandia, and if you're a hard core shopper theres Mall of Asia. Have fun!

Penelope Trunk I'm redesigning my blog -- thinking about all the stuff that should be there that isn't there. I was wondering if you have ideas. Examples: The categories I have are useless. But what would be useful to you? Or, I was thinking there should be an Asperger's discussion board, but maybe it would just be a bunch of people with no discussion skills. Hahaha. Any other thoughts? Sidenote: I notice that figuring out the content of one's blog feels a lot like figuring out who you want to be.

It has "About this", "About BC" and "P's Guide to" if you're on one of those pages you have to fish around to find your way back to the actual blog. Consider adding an option on that menu bar to the blog itself. And, after you leave the home page there is no navag back. I wanted to check out your speaking and couldn't find my way back easily once I was in.

Claire Veuthey Hi all! I know P-trunk says no-one is interested in your life story. But I find that my background plays a huge role in defining me, my perspective and my objectives (professional and other.) I also find I only seriously date other TCKs, which is lame on principle but makes sense in practice.
