I'm starting to take my first steps into a world outside of school. This blog is one of those steps. I plan on taking this era of my life by storm, so watch out for falling branches.
I have yet to have a job... or even a resume for that matter. HOWEVER, I think about having both ;] But I am trying to make little goals that I can actually accomplish. For example, writing a creative piece once a week and keeping up with running now that I actually have the time, energy, and abilities that God has graced me with.
The first step towards Actual Adult Land is finding an appropriate format for my resume --> putting that baby together --> concocting a slammin' cover letter --> putting my portfolio together --> and pressing send and hoping for the best. Also, this is for internships rather than jobs because unfortunately I have no experience but I cannot wait to get out there and starting soaking some up... because it seems as if everyone else already has been doing so...
The weird part is looking for a job now and realizing this is all I need. That is to say, I've always had school and a job for years now; my last semester at Millersville being the worst because of it. I took 6 classes and worked 6:45-3 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays waiting tables. I was exhausted and went months without a day off. Also, I may have been the most anger prone human being in the world; i.e. pulling up plants on campus and knocking over signs that you stick in the ground, whoops. So I also admit to being lackadaisical (phew tough word to spell!) these past Summer months. Anddd also I admit to slacking on my goals of relearning piano and Spanish. But a girl's gotta watch Grey's Anatomy and lay in the sun, right?!
I wanna go big... but here is to turning off the TV and starting small!
Yay Bridge! I'm so proud of you for doing this! I've put this page in my bookmarks bar!
ReplyDeleteNever saw you as angry, just solid and competent. If I were in a position to hire you I would do so in a minute.
ReplyDeleteyayy bridge i love this =)
ReplyDelete"signs that you stick in the ground" are called yard signs. just an fyi. but awesome! Also, I happen to know someone with 7 years experience working in a copy center, ya know, where people get resumes made. I'll make a layout for you! :)
