There are several do-it-yourself earbud cord wraps out there. Some are nice, some are… resourceful. I’ve seen some made of foam (from old flip-flops maybe) or credit cards, but I have yet to see one as cheap (or at least readily available) as my very own.

Actually, I’m posting now because I’m busy. I’m in Los Angeles Unified School District’s (LAUSD) District Internship program so I can get a teaching credential.

My first step is to find schools I’m interested in teaching at, then distribute my resumes to them. If you’re also doing the jobhunt thing, you may find some of the tips below helpful, even though you’re not applying for a teaching job in LAUSD.
