What exactly do I say after not writing for so long? I'm finishing school in December and already I am counting down the days. Hopefully, afterwards I'll be able to work somewhere full time, build up my resume, make some money, etc.
I've sent out about 3-4 cover letter/resumes out since the start of this month. Nothing yet from anyone...not sure if that's a good sign or not.
I talked to a pre-law advisor about my situation of going through a pre-med phase and killing my GPA and whether there's still a chance. Her advice: build up my resume, get great LSAT scores and explain my change to law schools....that's even if I go to law school...I am seriously contemplating Grad school first...public admin or public policy...
I was in Reno last weekend and judged at a debate tournament...it's been a few years since I did it so going back was very surreal. I didn't know any of the kids, but it didn't matter because they're behavior was all the same of the kids from my class...Reno High with its cockiness at clapping louder than the rest, the drama of seeing students hold their hands and pray while they wait for their names to be announced...hoping they got the first place... Judging was very weird...I realized quickly I had to turn "that part" of my brain back on...a part that seems to have been turned off in my time in Cali...I realized that I really don't have the same types of "debates" I used to have in high school, whether with other debaters or just friends. Most arguments these days end up with me just shrugging and saying, "whatever" whereas before I felt like winning was everything...and so did the people I would have discussions with...I feel like these last few years that I haven't really worked out that part of my mind...the whole idea of constructive arguments that lead somewhere and not arguing for the sake of arguing..
Tomorrow is a career fair and then the next week has an NGO fair coming to Davis, so I'm gonna check both out and see if there's anything I want to get into. Anyways, there really isn't much else to say....I guess I'll write more later........................or not.
