...!
The point of this: I could use your help/advice.
I have just been offered a second job officially a few hours prior. Some of yous may know what it is already. It is implied to have about 21 hours of work per week (up to 28, worse comes to worse), netting me ~$155 a week (when you deduct taxes). Notably, with the first job, I will probably be netting about 400 a week, which in two months will yield me well over my ideal goal of 2400 total by September 1 (or 2000, more precisely).
So what's the issue at stake?
What else I have to do, in the short term (i.e., till September 1).
Mandatory:
-1 report package a week for WERS's You Are Here program (it does take quite a bit of your time, believe or not)
-A 400-level (for those outside Emerson, senior-level) media seminar, of which 60% of the total grade revolves around a 4000 word paper that I have to write on a film (which is my general weakness in media arts), and the first part and all research is due next week (note that I need to clear this to graduate on time)
-24-32 hour-per-week job which I'm OK with, for the most part
Necessary for the sake of long term:
-Various sweepers and station IDs for WECB
-Attempting one short story a week
-Actually reading, for Pete's sake
Optional, but important (also for long-term):
-A small-scale music recording project for one of those tagged (No need to elaborate, you know who you are)
-Begin attempts at publishing
-Go to NYC at least once (for grad school scouting, mainly)
-Go to P-Town at least once (so I don't speak in tongues and go schizo for some reason)
-Go to RI at least once, prolly in correlation with above (no need to elaborate)
Then there's after September 1, which I won't elaborate further beyond the fact that it involves actual classes, attempts at internships, and in general a lot less time to actually work per se. My hands are full, in other words.
So what am I asking?
Should I take this job? And how should I move forward from herein?
That's all I ask (if you can answer one, that's enough, too). If I tagged you, it's because I would like to hear from you about this, and I trust your judgment (notably, anyone can answer this. It's just easier to see when you're tagged). That's all.
