labor prostitution

ways i've made money this summer:
  • "internship"
  • clinical trial subject - took experimental medication for treating high blood pressure. i don't have high blood pressure.
  • powerwashed and stained my family's deck
  • produced charts using hundreds of thousands of data points measured by SmartPill of pressure and pH of clinical trial subjects.
  • participated in SmartPill clinical trial
  • graduation party
NOTE: SmartPill is a digestible capsule that measures pressure, temperature, acidity, and others in your body, throughout the digestive tract. It is still in production, but will be used to diagnose GI disorders. My father is head of Research and Development for the production of this pill.

ways i've spent money this summer:
  • stupid shit
  • over $160 in bank fees (for a single error)
  • repaying debts
  • new bicycle
  • $0.37 donation to Colby Alumni Fund
  • more stupid shit
  • renting an apartment
net result: i'm broke

now accepting donations.

    Dear Conor,
    $0.37 for any particular reason? Does that represent the number of commrades that the Evil Empire took from you? Or were you just tryin to piss them off? I want to donate $0.37 too.

    it was the amount of money left on a gift card i had. the ultimate irony is that colby actually gave me the card in the first place for winning the maine scavenger hunt.

    however, as delightful as it was to donate $0.37, it was dampened when they sent me a very nice thank-you note via mail... postage $0.37.
