Successful survival of my first interview! ;)
Well, so the interview went pretty well! I am happy with the results and I feel at peace about it, whether I end up with the job or not. RIT is only about 15 minutes away and it's real easy to get to. I found the library without too much trouble and then was directed to Morna's office. I met her and two other ladies. All seemed nice, especially Morna. She was very friendly and easy to talk to. The three of them sat with me and asked me questions and I guess I answered ok. A few things I wasn't sure about and stumbled a bit, like some questions about Houghton's computer systems, catalogue systems and such. I guess I wish I knew more technological terms. It seems this job will be almost completely electronic, so I will have to learn a LOT of computer skills. Ironic eh? ;) So then Morna gave me a tour of the library and it was a really neat place. I liked the atmosphere there. Morna was very friendly annd we talked quite a bit. After a little over an hour I had to run to get Gram to her hair appointment. Morna seemed to like me a lot, so that's a great sign. She told me if I get the job, i'd probably work five days a week, from 12-4pm or 4:30ish. So that'd work out well, Gram's appts could be in the morning and i'd still get back in time to make dinner and stuff.
When I got there I wasn't as nervous as I thought i'd be. And afterwards I felt real good and at peace. So I know people were praying and God was watching out! :) Roger called a bit afterwards and was all happy and proud of me. I'm so grateful for his encouragement. And I SO want him to be proud of me!! :)
I really hope I can FINALLY start really doing something with my life and make some changes. Getting out in the working world should help me build up some confidence and a sense of purpose and not completely go crazy from being around here too much. And hopefully if I find a counselor or something, I can work on some of my other fears and envy issues. I just really don't like where i'm at right now. And I can see myself marrying Roger in a year, and I know that meanwhile I have a lot to work on and some more growing up to do. I think God's really putting it on my heart lately to change and truly and fully seek God's will.
Well that's about it, comparatively short! ;) Get to chill with Em this weekend. Hopefully go deer spotting and start shooting my bow. I saw two HUGE buck near here late the other night and am all psyched to see more!! And soonly to SHOOOT one! ;) And Morna said sometime early next week they should know about the job and she will let me know. So lots going on! It's better to be busy...
