My Girlie Magazine Horoscope Says....And a Note on Microloans



Obviously this means that within the next 20 or so days I will do something ridiculous that will ultimately land me the job of my dreams. I don't know why people read anything other than SELF and other girlie magazines. They make me feel like I am eating healthy, exercising and finding my dream job without any real effort. YYYYAAAAYYYY.

On a completely unrelated note to my horoscope, I am writing this blog whilst waiting for a phone call from a woman that works with microfinancing and microloans. Other than the ridiculously groovy sounding names, these economic and finance ideas are friggin amazing. The entire process is based on improving people's lives in third world countries by providing small entrepreneurial business loans. These loans are then used by small communities to start and run their own businesses with the goal of self sufficiency. I have to say, one of the most frustrating things I've found about the non profit world is a lack of business/administrative knowledge. I am intrigued!
